What if I'm actually a rotten mom? What if we're financially zapped forever because we had another baby? Bleh...just feeling so negative these days. I really hope these are just horomones messing with my head :(

Jadis I'm feeling ya! Because I am so sick, I haven't exactly been the best mum the last couple of weeks and all I keep thinking is well if I can't cope now how the hell am I going to cope when I have four of them! Had a few tears where I just felt so helpless, even cooking them a decent dinner makes me sick, we've nearly been late for school a few times as I have spent too long with my head down the toilet and it's getting to me. Poor DH gets it bad. I'm hard to live with at the mo.

Hopefully will be all cleared up tomorrow! I hope no one else gets these sicknesses that I have been getting :( feels horrible! And worse when pregnant lol! As second trimester is only 3 days away I hope my immune system magically beefs up lol!!!! I eat so many fruits and veggies plus my prenatal - this babe sure is taking alot out of me!

I wouldn't worry too much. To be honest my third was the easiest to adjust to having in the house. I thought it would be really hard when I was pregnant but after he was born it seemed the most natural. The hardest thing was just trying to go anywhere by myself with an infant, toddler, and preschooler. I always had to make sure I parked near the carts so I could grab one to put them in so we could get into the store without anyone getting lost.

I KNOW!! I'm getting so nervous lol I have been kinda checking in every now and then on the ladies due in march/april/may who are finding out and they don't seem to be having great luck over there :(
I just am SOOO hoping for a CLEAR 99.9% shot. I don't want to hear like "hmmmm LEANING boy/girl". I think no matter what I hear, I won't be 100% convinced until my 18-20 week scan anyway lol so going early is pointless really. But I want to try! Hehe!!

I'm kinda clueless on early gender determination. At the point you are going, will they be basing it on the nub? Or would they be able tell from a potty shot?

She said as long as baby is in a good position she should be able to get a potty shot! (She also recommend I make SURE I am drinking water cause at this stage clear amniotic fluid is an influence, so to make sure I am getting at least 4 glasses/day, which I usually drink probably 6). She is going to do it in 2D and in 3D! I have heard fabulous things about her so fingers crossed! :)

Hope i haven't missed much and everyone is ok

So sorry you were all so sick Mrs_P, hope you are all much better now. :hug2:

A little update on me girls. Had my scan today, so baby seems to be ok :) He's almost 5cm and doctor said he's measuring as at 11weeks 4 days, and I'm supposed to be 11weeks 5 days, but he said that's ok and nothing to worry about. All measurements he took seem to be ok. Heartbeat was 160b/m. Hubby asked him about gender and he didn't even try to check, he said it's too early for that. I couldn't see a nub either. I only got two pics cause while he was printing another two, the printing paper roll finished and they got stuck in the machine :( and actually the last two seemed to be the best two shots. I tried to scan them but honestly don't know how to do it, hubby is not here now cause he had a football match after doctor's visit, but will ask him to scan them when he's back or tomorrow morning as it will be late. I'll post them for you to see but there's no visible nub :( and photos are not very clear either.

It was very exciting though seeing our little one move for the first time. He kicked and at one time even turned around and gave us his back, how rude of him lol :) I'm so happy I finally saw him again :) I sometimes didn't believe he was really inside me. The more I looked at the screen and at the photos, the more I think it's a boy. He doesn't seem to have that dainty skull if you know what I mean :) So I guess it's a boy for us. I'll probably know in 4weeks time....can't wait till it comes!
