MFC, excited to hear about your appointment!

3pink, we will be praying that little guy turns soon!

I had to reschedule my appointment so no OB interview until 1/30! Ugh, I am so ready to hear this baby's heartbeat! Can't see the dr until the OB interview is done. Hope everyone is having a good day!

Hi ladies,

I had ultrasound done today when I was suppose to be 10 weeks 5 days according to my ovulation day and I'm only measuring 10W0D ..My OB told me not to worry and nothing was wrong, but I can't help it
The baby was moving all around, but I am so worried, Anyone else measuring a few days behind?

I told her about the NT scan, She said why I want to have a NT scan done? NT scans for specific high risk pregnancies ..I said I want make sure that everything is OK with the baby, I didn't say anything about the nub theory. They will scheduled me for NT scan soon.

Here is a picture from my scan ..

Hey Begoina! So nice to see you around hon. I can't believe your so close...Only 56 days to go! Time flies so fast.

MFC: Don't worry. If they didn't tell you to worry then there is nothing to worry about. Sometimes you implant late or it just took a little longer for your bean to get suggled into your lining and he is a couple days behind....no big deal. I would only worry if your were 1-2 wks behind. Plus, they are measuring a tiny little bean. I was 16wks and the head and leg measurements were completely different....by 5 days.

Begonia: I agree, you are on your home stretch. I understand your disappointment. I really feel for women who have all of the same gender. I have way more girls than boys, but it is nothing compared to all the families that long for a child of the opposite gender. We have 1 family at our church that have 5 girls and a family with 5 boys. They both would love to have the opposite gender, but are content with what they believe God has for them. What is really funny is they mother of the 5 boys is the thinnest women you will ever meet....I would never tell her about swaying, I think she would just laugh With all that said, I hope I would be able to have the grace that you (and the women at my church) have in such a confusing situation. I am sure it will all seem alright when you are holding your new baby.

Thanks WP FWIW, for me at least ... the baby thing won't make it as easy as it will be when I see my 3 grown women thriving, KWIM? Then I'll feel fulfilled. My 6 year old makes me so proud; I know the older they get, for me, the easier GD becomes. The baby thing is oddly the hardest part for me. I think because all people see is boy/girl at that time, KWIM? But DD1? Now we see artist and kindness and thoughtful and intelligent.

OH and I was thinking about you and your DH "feeling" it is a boy. How fun is that?!? That and my GD are why I had to break down and have my DH find out too though; my DH would pat my belly and call it our boy name with FX, and I couldn't take it... I couldn't take him having hope. So thank goodness his feeling matches the result! Don't show him the pics, it'll be WAY fun for him to see the real live boy I know if ours had been DS I would've been able to keep it quiet.

MFC I can't believe you're already 10w5! Wow, it does go fast! Don't fret about the days, I think WP is right. 5 days is nothing. He's just fine What a great pic!!! When I was pg with DD2 the NT were still considered for high risk but this time around my doc said it's become part of the routine care; but I suppose every practice is different. Glad you will get one!

I have another scan on Thurs to check size again. DD2 is coming so that will be interesting, LOL

MFC - thanks hun. So glad your u/s went well and I wouldn't worry. When I went in for my 20 wk u/s I was 20wks and 1 day but measuring 19wks 6 days because I didn't O on cd 14. If you didn't conceive on cd14 you'll measure off, period.

B- AHHHHH you're so close!!

Well ladies it's not looking good, my home doppler still has his heartbeat way to high in my belly. I'm trying not to lose hope but it's getting harder. I'll find out Thursday what position he's in but I have a feeling I'll be having a version next week. Ugh I hate being such a bummer

[DoulaMama]

Crashing...have you tried the moxa or the Chiro(Webster maneuver) yet? I would hands down do both of those before submitting to a version. Way safer, really great rates of success and WAY less pain involved.

[3Pink1Blue]

Doula - I can't find someone to do either one, Utah is not good for alternative therapies. I'm not going into the version lightly I just don't have a ton of options

[DoulaMama]

You can order your own moxa sticks and do it on yourself...or have hubby do it It's very simple. A caveman could do it....LOL

One thing to try....tell him you need him to turn. Everyday, tell him you need him to be head down for you and him. Tell him why and how important it is to you. Babies listen xo Turning vibes for your little guy~~~~~

[3Pink1Blue]

I'll look into that. Oh believe me I've been visualizing, massaging (I'm a massage therapist) and we've all been talking to him. Dh has a little chat with the bottom of my belly every night lol
