Crazycat - glad you are back to your pregnant self, sorry about the nausea tho. I'm 8w4 so still well in with nausea!
On the subject of t shirts I have a brill one from last time with me bump on it. It says mind the bump and mr bump grows with your bump. I wore it a lot in the gym and to yoga last time :)
Has anyone heard of or will be trying the intelligender boy/girl at home gender test? I guess it can be done at 10 weeks. It doesn't have great reviews but they say it's 87-89%accurate.. It sounds fun to try, just don't know if I want to do it just because of the reviews.

I've heard of it but would be scared to try it in case it said girl and it was wrong. I don't think I could take the disappointment after thinking I was getting my girl.
I tried intelligender with DS5 and it said girl.
Thanks mum! I think I will save my money!

I hadn't heard of it but wouldn't want to take the risk.
Likewise heard its totally unreliable !!
Okay nausea kicked in today..so made it to 5 weeks 4 days went straight out and brought seabands.
Who has a scan coming up?

what are seabands?
Anti nausea bands that you wear on your wrist that have a acupuncture point , you can buy them at the pharmacy. Who knows if they really work, but you feel like you are doing something!! X

lol well good luck, i havent heard of those!
Oh, that must have been disappointing Mumofsix! I've also heard that test is fairly unreliable, and for those of us who have such strong hopes, I think it's not worth the risk.
Yes, seabands are pretty cool. You can also find them on Amazon :-) I can't guarantee they work, but I wear them too, lol.
I have a scan coming up on Tuesday :-) We'll be 12+1 and it's our NT scan. hoping to get a nub shot, but I know it's likely it may not happen. We shall see. I'll just be happy for our first look at the baby and hopefully all will be well and healthy!
I used seabands with ds1 but didn't think they helped. This time I'm just trying to eat little and often. It doesn't always work. Lol.
I've never used seabands but I highly considered it this time. I will be 11 weeks Saturday and yesterday and do far today I am feeling pretty good!!!! 😃 I hope I'm out of the sickness and it doesn't come back!!! Hope everyone else starts feeling better soon!!

Fab news girl dreaming :)
Super news girl dreaming!!
Aoii great you starting to feel better. Crazy cat hope you see a nub! I'm starting to wonder if I should read up on nub theory that way I can better prepare myself at scan? Anyone else ignorant of nub theory? Xx

I'll be at the end of 13 weeks for my NT scan. I'm hoping I can see some gender clues. I swore I knew ds2 was a boy then! I am praying I don't see anything this time!

Massive ignoramus here!
I am too!! I'm not sure if I want to know either? ignorance is bliss and this is my last pregnancy for sure my DH said that the minute I told him I was pregnant hehe x
Sent from my Windows Phone 8S by HTC using Tapatalk
Haha well he better have the snip to be sure then ;)
I also think ignorance is bliss, we will drive ourselves round the bend otherwise, it's really not that long to wait.
He won't Steph!! But my word he is super strict about birth control!
I would not object to an oops baby! Are you finding out Steph? Xx

Great news girl dreaming!
I'm feeling the same about not finding out. This is definitely my last baby so I'm really thinking about a delivery room surprise. Nit sure I can hold out but really want to try!!
I love the idea of a surprise but I dont know whether I have the self control to wait. My DH wants us to find out so that I can get used to the idea of having a boy. Well he told me he isnt coming to the scans so it will be up to me hahaha. Kind of thinking ignorance is bliss but at the same time I really dont know...
I wish I could have the will power to have a surprise.. But I just don't! I have to know ASAP! I actually can't wait until I find out, so I can just relax and enjoy this last pregnancy. I know I will be so happy and surprised if it is my baby girl. But I also know I will need to come to the realization of being a boy mom and take in that I will never get to experience raising a daughter! I LOVE my boys and I would not be sad to have another boy. What I will be sad about is not ever being able to have a daughter. Although I still have the feeling this is my daughter I've been praying for! 5 more weeks!!!

Im feeling the same aoii. Im really hoping to see a nub on monday at my 12 week u/s. I cannot wait any longer!
I find it hard to keep up with the thread lol
But congratulations on all the beautiful scans & lovely heartbeats! So sorry to all those who are still stick! Worst part of pregnancy for me!
We will be having an elective gender scan at 14+ weeks ( super excited) !
Have been pondering my sway a lot a lately & would love to hear what your really confident with ( in terms of things that make you feel great about your sway)
- Favourite elements of my sway-
- Tandem Breastfeeding Ds1 & Ds2
- was very very sick during my sway & ovulation, high temps, fever chills, was very surprised to get a Bfp as we were not trying at all! Only did the deed once on our 14 year anniversary ( have been a couple since I was 14 yrs old)
- conceived straight away after an early miscarriage
- diet, stopped breakfast for many months, limited snacks, meats & general le diet.
- no exercise, very different to when we conceived our boys :)
- aci jel :)
Trying to focus on the positives :) , would love to hear your positive sway points x
Good idea two of a kind!!
Things I am most happy I stuck too !!
No breakfast, no snacking, fasting for at least 16 hours till I ate , keeping everything below limits (well most of the time)
Being on diet for 8 months
Zyrtec day of DTD
Staying off GD for 2 weeks before my attempt
Giving up MFP so not obsessing over limits
Losing weight in 2ww before BFP and losing overall 5.5kg, lowest conception weight.
No big O!!
Lots to drink night of conception...
Heaps of things im nervous about too!!! But as I keep telling myself I came a long way from doing 'shettles' when I first joined up in Jan!!
Been putting it off but going to post my sway now, it wasn't great but I did the best I could and im proud of myself!

Thanks x
Sounds great kitkat!! Really sounds like you changed things up! :) Looking forward to finding out the gender, as i feel I did my best :)
Thanks two of a kind!! You too!! At the end of the day that's what I am clinging too xx just spent ages posting my sway for it not to load!! Xx

Ahh so annoying :) I should have added more detail into my sway ( will edit it soon, can't wait to add a Update Girl!! ;) ( well hopefully) lol
Okay loaded my sway!! Finally!! How is everyone? im still eating like I am on the le diet, if I eat normally I feel like a pig craycray!!
Xx
Sent from my Windows Phone 8S by HTC using Tapatalk
Haha it takes a while to adjust to eating "normally". I still have some of the same meals because I like them and I do eatore vegetarian things than before starting LE but I'm eating a bit more meat and fish and normal stuff. I had breakfast cereal last night for the first time in at least a year!!
Good points about sway:
-was 12kg less than when I got PG last time (but I had lost the weight months before so was at a stable weight)
- LE diet was pretty different to my usual - especially the 16 hour fast and no snacking
- I did not slack when it came to exercise. At my DHs request I had cut down to 5 days a week a few weeks before I conceived
- one attempt and very crap BD so no big O for me!!!
- masses of booze the weekend we conceived
Looks great Steph!! I do enjoy not worrying everytime I put something in my mouth hehe xx

Great points Stephk! Hope you have your little girl x
The funny thing is at the moment I feel very strongly that I'm having a boy and really don't mind. Until DH or one of my friends suggests it and then in my head I'm annoyed lol!! I'm in trouble lol. I really won't mind either way once the baby is in my arms. There was always still a massive chance of having a boy.
Forgot to mention another good point of the sway - my DH cycles to work in good weather so had been cycling 5 days a week for 90 mins a day for a few months. He had these cycling shorts that kept things pretty warm, I was worried there would be no sperm at all lol!!!
