New Here and due 11th April :)
Welcome Beckesuhh, did you sway and have you found out the babies gender or are you having a surprise? x
Hoping NC is ok, not seen her on here for ages. Fingers crossed she is just busy with it coming up to Christmas. x
I've been thinking about her too. We chatted so much, and now I don't see her on here at all. I hope all is well with her.
NC...WE MISS YOU!!!
3 days until the scan... oh my God.
Hugs Suregena I got butterflies for you when I read that! I remember all too well how the nerves feel! My fingers are firmly crossed that you hear girl. xxx
These stories of wrong gender scans are making me terrified. Lol. Mine really wasn't ambiguous, but I can't help but be paranoid!!
Welcome Beckysuhh. We always enjoy new faces around here. Jump right in, but this room moves quickly, so be warned! (I can't ever keep up!)
Does anyone else in here get really scared around week 15 thru week 25? I did this with my second son as well and it just is starting to hit me. Once I start to feel the baby and start to get attached emotionally...picking out a name, finding out the sex, starting to pull out clothes, buy new baby things...I start freaking out that something will happen to the baby. It's an uncontrollable fear. And I can't help but feel like I am too lucky...that I get pregnant so easily, that my babies are healthy, that my labors are easy, etc and that I am waiting for something to go terribly wrong. Am I alone in this? I do believe it started after I had losses between my first and second child and I got a taste of what that heartbreak feels like. And now I can manage in early pregnancy by staying pretty detached. I can even be okay around week 12, since it's a new "safe zone" (as if!). But once I start to develop that attachment, I start panicking. I can't talk myself out of it. I mostly just have to wait for a wave of it to pass. Buts it's hard.
Yeah that's why I won't buy anything or get attached yet this time. I hate this. I used to think 12 weeks was safe but after last time I just want to make it to 20 weeks and breathe
The wrong gender stories suck but if you look at the pics none are too clear IMO. Depends on the tech I think and how much fluid etc etc. I was told before 15 weeks last time girl by the same tech and she was right. She was also right about my boys at 15 weeks. And ds2 had that perfect snail looking potty shot lol
No there was no refund because the 12 and 18 week ultrasounds were not for gender, the tech just had a guess at them like she probably does at all of them (including mine). The one she paid for was specifically for gender and there it was revealed as a boy. I'd say at the earlier scans the tech may have said 70% or something like that, so really if its not 100% i think its not safe to buy anything and get attatched. I didnt ask about the techs response i would assume that it was an awkward conversation so i didnt want to pry any further because i dont actually know this lady personally. She did express her anger about it and said she would never go back there.Quote:

I am NOT a back sleeper, so why is it happening all of a sudden?Quote:
