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

[Bama Belle]

Thought I would get a head start on my baby registry since I am desperately trying to pass these 6 days and alas...I discovered that a lot of registry items are in fact gender specific. Argh...so I guess I will be putting that off until next Tuesday also. Can't win for loosing

Anyone else doing or planning to do a baby registry?

I started a registry at Target. We are not planning on having a shower but I want the coupon to stock up on a few things.

Hi ladies!

Well I had my scan today at 16+4 wks and all was looking healthy! There is a chance with my type of twins that share a placenta, that one is greedy and uses more nutrients and blood, leaving the other starved. It is about a 15% chance of happening. But all clear today! Phew.

I got the impression the u/s tech was a little annoyed that I asked for the gender today, she was not very forthcoming. But she said at the end 60% determination that they are GIRLS.

So Im not sure what to make of that. It is promising, but I probably shouldnt get my hopes up??

Next scan is at 18+4 wks - anatomy scan. I guess all will be revealed then...

What do you think??

I had a scan at 15+4 and another at 16+4. They both told me girl. It might be different with twins but I think 60% is pretty good. I am still kinda hoping that the tech was wrong and just missed the boy parts. Hehe

If she's heard boy, she may need time to process the news. I know how I've felt in the past finding out boy and hurting. I think it's important that she has this time with her hubby if she needs it.

Very true violet. Also I remember her saying she goes at 5 but she probably wouldn't open the envelope until a bit later. I think we might not hear from her until much later tonight unfortunately.

Well, it's 7:30pm here and I've put the kids to bed, poured a teeeny glass of wine and opened the envelope with my DH and....IT'S A GIRL! Thank you all so much for your support and well wishes for me, it's honestly meant more than any of you can know.

Awww Jadis I knew it! Congrats on your daughter honey! So thrilled for you. May the pink streak continue...

P4P, I don't think you saw my earlier post but I really hope you get the same news I did today! I'm having my girl!! Thanks for crossing your fingers for me, I swear I felt all the positive energy coming from my cyber sistahs today.

[cvd]

Haha! Oh yes that's true p4p! If I had the patience to wait I'd do one too but I already have everything and as you said, it'd probably be different if this was a girl!!! Being in the states, do you shop more often at target or Walmart? Whenever we visit the states, about twice a year, target is like the FIRST place I go! Now that were getting target I doubt itll be exciting at all. They are opening in a couple months.

Maple, I think that's very promising indeed! After hearing this and seeing your nub shots, I've got a really good feeling for you! I can't wait for your anatomy scan! I'll be stalking like crazy.

I can't wait for Target to open here! I LOVE their housewares section. They've got beautiful stuff for awesome prices, I might just register there.
