Anyone else due??

Kell, glad to hear that everything's on track. I private scan...so you'll be...15.5 weeks? They'll tell you that early? Very cool!

Kells tickers is a bit slow. I think shes 15weeks +1/2 days. you can get a sexing scan from 16 weeks

LMW you are right her ticker is slow but I think you can get a gender scan 15+ weeks as I was looking at the 'confirmed boy scans' on IG and several had got their gender confirmations at 15+ weeks and pics were pretty clear.
I'm going to wait til 16 weeks just to make sure

Thanks for asking girls, sorry not to get back on this thread. It went well thanks, a really nice experience actually with a lovely sonographer. I asked about gender and she said it was hospital policy to not tell anyone at this stage even if it were obvious....I strongly felt 'boy' during the scan and thought I saw a boyish nub but because it doesn't show in any of the pics I still have hope! Of course I was totally relieved and thrilled baby was healthy and well, phew!
I have posted some pics on the ultrasound forum if any of you want a guess! Definitely not staying team green!!
So have started telling people today that I am pg, it is fun and so far everyone has been really positive thank goodness.
My DH had a plan for if people are asking if we are hoping for a girl etc and that is for me to say that Dh really wants a boy! so if we get a boy they know that it is something at least one of us really wanted! I'm telling people that it feels boy and I'm thrilled (!)
so nice to be able to be honest on here, love you ladies

fingers crossed it is a pink one!

i hated having to put on that big fake "im so happy im having another boy" face.
its so draining!
everyone looks at you with pitty when they find out, and usually the first thing they ask is, 'will you have another one after this?'

thats one of the reasons im staying team green this time.
i dont know the gender, so i dont have to fake anything for anyones sake.
im preparing myself for blue anyway, but at least i can enjoy my pregnancy with out all that crap hanging over my head.

The girls are right I'm just over 15 weeks I've not been on a computer yet to change my ticker!
I'll be 16+6 when we go for the scan so all should be very obvious by then!

Everyone knows how I feel about wanting a girl, maybe I should be but I'm not shy about telling people I'd love to have a girl, of course a healthy baby is what matters regardless of gender and I say that to. I just say we are both hoping to have a girl one day, and most people accept that and move on!

Indigo violet I just saw your ultrasound photo and are gorgeous and if that's a nub I see that definitely looks girl to me fx

[indigoviolet]

Dannikins- totally know what you mean about pretending and how boring and exhausting it is. Good reason to stay team green. you get your girl. Glad you are enjoying this pg, definitely the right decision for you.

Belle, thanks for the guess. will you be finding out?

[Belle]

Yes I will be definitely finding out. I went into shock with my ds2 so I don't want that again. My 20 week ultrasound is for the 1st week of march but I have an appt with my obs Friday 10th of feb and I'll be nearly 17 weeks so I'm hoping that he'll be nice enough to quickly put me on his own machine in his room to see the potty shot.

Exciting Belle, that´s in a week! Hope your obs will be that nice to show you the 3 little lines

I believe I´m starting to feel the baby move, very vaguely, not movements like at 20 weeks, but sometimes I do feel something. Can´t wait to feel his/her clear movements, then being on team green will become easier.

Dannikins how do you handle scans being on team green? Do you tell the tech immediately you don´t want do know the gender, so does he/she tell you to look away or don´t you look at all?
I have an apt with my dr in two weeks and she always does a quick scan.
I would love to have a better look this time since at 13 weeks my baby looked very weird and the scan was so quick, if I see a cute little baby now I will feel so much better, but I´m afraid I will see a willy as soon as I look at the screen
