Roll-call!! Due June/July/August 2013

[Praying4Pink]

Not that you did any of those things, huh?

You're probably right, it would just lead to more obsessing, which is definitely not healthy!

I am super excited for your gender scan! Your nub shots looked very promising.

I DID do all those things Jennaesue But you know if you are getting the scan anyway and you feel comfortable asking for the nub shot then by all means. Honestly there is nothing wrong with a little obsessing. As long as you go in knowing that 1. Guesses are just guesses 2. Nubs can change and 3. Theories are just theories then you will be just fine. Go ahead get that nub shot girlfriend. Then maybe we can all have a guess at it, lol.

BTW: My obsessing did get pretty bad but that's just my personality. All total between this forum, BabyCenter, Ingender and Baby and Bump I did receive a total of 26 girl guesses including one tech guess, 2 maybe girl guesses, and 2 leaning girl guesses. I REALLY hope it's a girl, lol.

Hey Praying, do you have a link for the board on babycentre where we can post a pic for guesses?

[Praying4Pink]

Bama - Sorry you didn't hear blue honey. I have two older brothers and the one thing I always wished for was a sister. So if things don't change then your DD will have another girl to bond with...other than her sweet mommy of course

Just home from my midwives, they've moved my due date up! Now, instead of June 25th, it's June 19th (my birthday!). Wouldn't a girl make a lovely birthday gift for me? Gah! I'm crossing my fingers and toes until our ultrasound in exactly 14 days...the countdown in painful. Today, my babe's heartrate was 150...is that on the high side?

Aw, how special that your due date is your birthday! While it would not be a very fun way to spend your birthday, it would be nice to celebrate with your little one every year.

And I don't think the heart rate theory has any credibility, so I wouldn't even bother worrying about it.

Well, I don't really have an option for a scan before my 20 week ultrasound. Unless I call up and demand one or pretend I am having some sort of problem. And that is just not like me. My next regular appointment is on February 1, and I'll be 17 weeks, 4 days. I was considering calling them to see if they would do the scan then, but I doubt they would do it that far before 20 weeks. I imagine I'll just schedule my scan for 2 or 3 weeks from then.

I posted some pics on the u/s thread, please tell me what you think.

Maple and lo123 and jadis I truly hope you get your dreams. It's not good to feel so low - gd really sucks xx

Thank you OneLastDream, I really hope so too. I hope you start to feel better soon. Thinking of you.

[LO123]

Bama, sorry you didn't hear boy. Hope your doing OK.

EmmyRoo, your definitely not doing it alone. I don't know what I would without being able to come in here and talk about how I feel. Only my DH, Mum and a close friend knows about us swaying. I even wish I haven't told my friend though. She kind of made fun of it, which hurt me but I know she didn't mean it in an awful way. I think she forgets how much she also wanted a daughter as we use to talk about it a lot when we were younger. She now has one so probably doesn't think about it anymore. She made me godmother and says now you have a daughter too. Nice and sweet but not really the same.

HopingWishingPraying, welcome and congrats.

Jennaesue, defintiely obsessing about gender. It is all I think about it. I seem to wake up every morning and it is already in my head. Driving me crazy. I am scared to get a nub shot but know I will not be able to help myself and will have too. I have my 12 week scan in 11 days so not long. I just want some hope even if it turns out not to be. I would just like to feel happy about it all for atleast part of the pregnancy.

This has to be a good sign, doesn't it. What a gift that would be....

I too have read the heart rate theory doesn't stand up.
