So is this your second child Jensy? Having two boys is pretty good, although I really wanted a girl both times I am now glad I was able to give DS1 a brother. They are so sweet together (most the time when they are not fighting or talking about poo or bums lol).
Yeah,Purple this is my second boy :-) I'm excited he is having a brother and I absolutely think they will be besties.I can't wait for those conversations lol.My husband knows how much I want a girl and is happy to try again.I seen you mention this is your third sway? Did you do anything different this time round?
This is my 1st sway. When I was ttc DS2 this site wasn't around so I looked at the ingender site but it all seems too hard and I didn't want to cut my odds of conception down, I really just wanted to make sure I got another baby.
This time I found GD and it made much more sense and easier to follow, although I didn't stick to the LE dietvery well. I think my main sway factors were it being the 2nd round of clomid and I was on metformin. Maybe also my miscarriage in March also helped sway. I mostly think I was just really lucky :)
Ah, I remember where I said 3rd sway. It was my 3rd attempt as the first 2 were miscarriages. Each time I filled out the form early but this time I waited until after 12wks.
Oh I'm sorry about the miscarriages :-( that would never be easy.You have a beautiful girl on the way by the looks now :-) Yeah I still have the Clomid I was going to take before we concieved,I might take it next time and see if it helps,alp though I would probably have to go through the process of seeing a fertility specialist again and that was a bit painful lol..maybe I might take it and see if I can get an ultrasound somehow.
Welcome Jensy. Squiggle my early 6 wk scans never measure correctly. Ds3 was 2 wks behind. Stressed me out so much!! This baby was about 6 days behind.

Welcome jensy and lissastick!
I have just booked my gender scan for 2 1/2 weeks time - I am so nervous/terrified!!!!!x
I will be surprised if you don't hear girl 3'sacharm! I understand the nerves though!
Welcome Lissastick 🌹
Welcome ladies!!
Slowly getting there 10 weeks today and feeling normal. [emoji846]
I saw my obgyn on last Friday at 9+1 and got to see Bub and hear the heartbeat for the first time which was so nice!
I cancelled my NIPT testing, just going to see what my 12+5 week scan comes back looking like and have booked a gender scan at 16 weeks. Lots of nub analysing till 16 weeks though.

I hope you get some good nub shots so we can all help with the nub analysing :) glad it is going well!
I've just has a very disappointing dating scan. I don't understand how but I have been moved back a full week (meaning conception has occurred at least 5/6 days after the last sex in our BFP cycle) and they could not check the baby or do the NT test and as a result ive been to have the harmony test today straight after my scan. My womb is apparently severly tilted and baby is implanted right low down just above my cervix and facing my back. I don't think my weight helped although they didn't mention that, just impression I got witht he abdo scan, they then tried internal. I did catch a glimpse of a potty shot and it was very girly, nothing to see. I didn't get a picture as she couldn't get a clear shot either abdo or vaginally. Gutted and nervous. ive had a high risk test result with last baby and really hoping everything comes back ok this time especially as this is an exact science. Hope everyone else is ok. I cant stop crying
Baby I promised you I wouldn't sugarcoat anything. The fact your dates are that far off could mean you ovulated later and conception 4+ days out from last sex should sway heavily girl which is why E4D is a girl sway tactic. The fact you are pretty confident you saw a girlie nub (and I think after 3 girls we know girlie nubs) is pretty telling. I am glad you got the harmony because you are far enough along that should tell you gender nubs and dating scans aside. However maybe as sick as you have been baby is just on the smaller side, also possible. Please message me when you get harmony back f you don't wanna talk about it here. I hope everything comes out okay. I'll be thinking of you until then...
Thanks Burk. I really appreciate your reply. I pretty much had already accepted that baby is a girl. I've even chose a girls name but no boys names appeal, it's like my mind already knows. I have had really wired cycles where I've had lots of days of posatives/almost posative opk. I also never get flashing smiley just jump straight to solid. We dtd 20 hours after first solid smiley (next night) and the next 2 days. She told me that vaginal scans are very accurate so I can't argue with dates but I've either ovulated a week late after pos opk?? Or some other witchcraftery. However that's what pushed me too the harmony, with such a big discrepancy with dates, as measuring small for dates is a marker for all of the genetic diseases. I did see a girly nub . I wish i could pretend I didn't but I did. Of course I will let you know as soon as I hear. I don't know what's bothering me the most, getting the girl result or possibly getting bad news of the genetic tests.
I hope your feeling better and everything has settled down xxx
Baby just wanted to say am sorry for your disappointed scan, today, however, am glad you got the harmony test. We had it with ds2 and at least you will know the answer to both the gender and genetics question soon. I wish I could give you a big hug but no matter what the results, there are people on here going through similar so lots of support either way. So hard to be going through this and when people in rl don't know your pregnant or have swayed it makes it so much more isolating. X o
Thanks girlie. It's just a combination of everything all at once compounded by previous high risk result, how ill I've been, migraines, huge weight gain.....to name a few. I'm hoping to get my results next Thursday or Friday although I'm sure it will be the longest week in history! Xxx
Baby i had a positive opk the week before i actually ovulated. I didnt ovulate with the first one, and ovulated a week later. If you thought you ovulated because of the solid, you probably didnt test a week later like i did...i had huge amounts of EWCM, unprecedented godly amounts and thats why i took the second OPK though i thought i already ovulated i couldnt ignore the signs...and when that one was solid i knew i had geared up the first time but didnt actually ovulate.
Your probably right. But still baffling as to how sperm lived that long. My dh thought he was clever saying " if that's the due date the babies not mine" trying to make a joke but it was badly timed to say the least! It also means I got my pos hpt at 3dpo? I got my first feint at 10dpo (first test). It's just mind boggling lol my head hurts
You have to remember that when you have a dating scan, it may not indicate when you ovulated. They are measuring the babies growth. Babies grow at different rates and that is how they base your due date. For example, my dating scan with DS3 said that he was measuring a week ahead, meaning I ovulated and conceived him 12 days after we last DTD? I don't think so! The gestational sac was present confirming I ovulated the date I knew I had. They had to move my due date based on his growth rate NOT because I ovulated 12 days later.
Your baby is just growing at a slightly slower rate and it is not indicative of when you ovulated.
Huge hugs!

Sorry you have had a bad scan baby2016. How many weeks were you expecting to be and what was the actual measurement?
With this one my scan was 4 days out which isn't huge but I was worried as the previous one was a few days out too.
My uterus is tilted too so I think that can effect the accuracy. I'm hoping everything will be ok for you!
Baby if you were under 12 weeks on the scan the nub would look girly even if its a boy. My dates were moved also, 10 days infact which according to my lmp is pretty impossible, so I dont think its an exact science, its a measurement that can be affected by lots of factors. Fx your harmony results come back all good.
she is 12 weeks + to my knowledge. Thats why i didnt give the false hope of saying it may be too early. I know some still think 12 weeks is time to rise but if she is pretty confident id say the nub from what she saw was pretty flat and straight...she can obviously correct me.
There is the tiniest chance i did my test too early and i will see a penis at my 16 week elective scan..but i cant bank on that because id be devastated so i'll just go with what the gender test said and prepare for that and then be super shocked (rightfully so) if the test was wrong. I hope that harmony says its a boy for you baby... crossing my fingers and toes that because of how hard they had to try to find baby maybe you just didnt get a good enough look angle was off etc...i know you are sure of what you saw and thats fine..because i didnt see it im going to keep hoping blindly for you <3
ps; first positive OPK was friday and then i ovulated wednsday or thursday...so 5 days from one positive OPK to the next..which is about what they are saying you are measuring off..i dont temp but i know that even though baby measured as a saturday conception with first scan i just dont believe it..my line was so dark at 12 AM wednsday morning and i had such huge amounts of EWCM that when the next ultrasound showed baby measuring on target for a thursday conception i think it just confirms it was Wednesday or thursday..
Thanks xx. What you say makes sense to me. I've heard of people being moved a few days it's just the fact it was a whole week!!! It's comforting to know I'm not the only one. 12 days!! Goodness that's alot. Like you I know it's impossible. It's just a shame as I know that I will be a nervous wreak at the end knowing I'm actually a week ahead of what they are saying. We had a still birth in family at 39w and I've always took comfort in the fact I'm sectioned at 39w. But with this edd I will be 40w gestation at my section. Hope it doesn't go the way my first did (placenta started failing/hr dropped and needed emcs). No point worrying that far ahead.
Purple im 13+3 but now 12+3. Crl is 58mm. I got my solid smiley and posative cheap opk on afternoon of cd12. We bd CD 13/14/15. By there dates fertilisation occured CD 21. We had no other sex after morning of CD 15. I got my first very feint bfp CD 24 (on a tesco cheapie) and done one 2 days later and it was darker. Although feint it was a definite posative. its more annoying than anything. Especially when youve been charting and monitering everything.
Burk I did actually keep doing opk for about a week after the posatives. This is due to the fact that previous 3 months I thought id either started the bd too early or too late. They faded on CD 15 and had nothing resembling a posative after. I could maybe have ov later but only a day or two at most. I will keep everything crossed there's a willy waving at you at your scan but like you, I don't want false hope!
Can't do anything now on the date. They said even if I measure ahead in future (I need growth scans at 28 and 36w) it wont be changed. As long as harmony comes back clear so this whole farce can be forgotten.
If you're measuring 12w3d, boys and girls look the same. I know by dates you say you're 13w, but you have to go by how the baby is measuring.
My DS2 was a "slow cooker" too, and when I actually measured 13w6d, we could kind of tell he was a he. We never saw 3 lines just what looked like swollen parts. I think that is why my DH had the worst GD with him. There was kind of hope he would be a she.

Did the clear blue digital this morning and said 3 + weeks. Am relieved about that. I think I was 6 weeks yesterday but gp going by lmp has me at 7 weeks tomorrow. Am finding this time really slow, so hard to know how things are going! X
Exciting girlie!
I have booked an early gender scan, it's two weeks on Monday so in the meantime I'm becoming somewhat nubsessed!! I'm trying to prepare myself to hear boy but I'm feeling like it could be a girl, with worse nausea this pregnancy, awful skin and carrying on feeling sick into the 2nd trimester, in addition to my scan showing a fairly girly nub... What will be will be though... I'll be so nervous in that scan room!!!x
WoohooQuote:

3 I know I'm feeling cheated now as I will find out in a phone call, I'm light of the harmony we have cancelled our gender scan. But I'm some ways it might be better. Last time we took our 2 girls and you could cut the atmosphere with a knife. Then when she said girl everyone was silent (even my girls wanted a brother) so I started trying to chat loads and put this big act on that I was happy etc as you could tell the woman felt awkeward. I got out and broke down which was aweful for my girls to see :( but I couldn't hold it in!
I can't comment on the nausea other than to say I didn't so much as gag with my first 3 girls. But I've been very ill this time. I honestly beleive it's because I am bmi 10 higher than normal rather than anything to do with the sex. My skins also bad. hope everyone is feeling ok and has a good weekend xxx
I can't wait to hear your result! I'm sure it will be girl :) Are you going with anyone? We took the boys so it was a nice chance for them to see the baby.Quote:

How was the respons to your announcement Pueple? Mine was similar to yours, kids holding the Us pic, all congrats and not 1 gender comment surprisingly.
5 days till I have the morph scan, cant wait to see baby again and confirm that its a girl so I can start buying things.
No gender comments on the post, just lots of congratulations and a few "wow" comments :) We went to a 40th birthday last night and got asked if we were finding out the gender but no "are you hoping for a girl" comments. I think most people probably assume that we would like a girl so there is no point asking.
You are lucky to get your scan early! Hopefully they can get all the measurements they need, the girl at work had to go back twice to as they couldn't get everything they needed the first time.
I have bought a couple of items as they had some reduced baby stuff at target. I won't buy too much until I get it confirmed at the morph scan :)
