I think it could be a girl, but then again I really want a girl so I have been trying to tell myself too expect a boy!! That way I don't get too disappointed!!

I really think I'm having a girl too but don't know if its just because that's what I'm hoping for or real instinct.

I'm 12 weeks today! It felt like the day would never come, it's gone so slow. Scan is on Thursday morning.

Good luck to everyone having scans this week, can't wait to see all the pics.

Wow lots of scans this week! I have one at 845 am central time on friday! Hoping for some sort of a nub shot! I am going to be looking closely at the scan for sure!

Good luck to all of you. I hope you get good nub shot and that the nub shows what you want:)) I have a scan too in about two weeks, hopefully I will get to know the gender then :nails:

Good luck Kiara, hope it goes quick for you!

Well, it costs about $1700 IF they bill your insurance. If not, it is like $199. They called me last week about the billing, and since it is so new, I was not surprised that my insurance (which is very good) only covered $150 of it. They rep said that the other option is to "calculate" our annual income and number of people in household and see if that could qualify us for a discounted rate where they don't bill insurance and just send us the bill directly. I asked her what she needed, thinking I'd need to fax over my tax returns and such, and nope- I just told her over the phone, and bam- it was $199. And we are very middle of the road with income, so I was worried that we wouldn't qualify, but it took her all of 30 seconds to come back and say, OK, you can be billed for only $199.

Of course now I couldn't even imagine life without all three of my boys, and I know I'll love this baby no matter what the gender. I think this time around I'm going to tell people beforehand that if they don't have anything nice to say then they should say nothing at all. We're not having any more kids, so this is our very last chance for our dream girl. I feel like I never wanted anything so badly.

It's the same exact way when you have all girls, but your poor DH gets the "not manly enough to make boys" stigma, which is almost worse for him. I totally understand how you feel, though. This is my last baby and last chance for a son, although since we had infertility issues, I'm just thankful to have a natural pregnancy, but still.....I know what you mean. I have a scan this morning, too, and should find out the gender either today or tomorrow from the blood test, and I just couldn't sleep last night at all. I had a dream that I got some papers in the mail that said GIRL all over them and I was upset, like in a nightmare, so I was up all night after that, of course. All I can say is I hope we both end up with our dg this time!

Can't wait to see the nub shots....good luck at the scan today!
