aw fish, big hugs. It sounds like you've been though a really rough time. Hope everything goes well tomorro, Ill be thinking about you x

Thorz what an emotional rollercoster, are you going to go for another scan inbetween now and your 20 week and how long is your 20 week scan off?. Big hugs to you too x

Goodness, I don't check for 24 hours and all this happens!

Thorz - I'd be pretty ticked off too and hate being in limbo! I'd be booking another scan in a week or so just to put my mind at rest. I can't remember (baby brain sorry!) did you pay for a gender scan? If so, I'd be phoning them up and giving them hell! At the one I went to they don't like their 99% accurate reputation damaged so scan you again if there's any disagreement.

Fish - I'm not at all religious but will keep you and your girl in my thoughts and hopefully good vibes will make their way down to you! Hugs xxx

I'm back of holiday now, slightly glad to be home, but came back with a very whingy DS2 on the plane which drove me mad, then arrived to find that the company who stored my car have somehow put scratched across three panels! It looks like they've put it next to a bush for the week and its scratched all the freshly (and expensively) done polish and lifetime treatment. I'm quite laid back about it but hubby is fuming. They're saying it was there before we handed it over. So am now gearing up for a battle!

Anyway, here's a bump photo at 19+3. Baby obviously loved the sun and moved up loads. Not going to be able to hide it for the next 4 days on the school run

Oh Thorz poor you, think you should call your private place an ask for a rescan so sorry after we all convinced you to go for it too!

[Thorz300]

Honestly, I don't blame the private scan place, it did look like a boy! I think it was mostly my fault for booking it so early! At this point I don't want another scan until my 20 week scan because, I just want to be absolutely certain, and at 20 weeks, I don't think they will get it wrong! Ugh I'm just going to continue on my life with the idea that I am carrying my 4th baby boy. But it is SO INCREDIBLY hard not to let this get my hopes up for a girl! My 20 week scan should be the first part of May so it shouldn't be too rough of a wait!!! I googled how often this happens and apparently mistakes are most often made during the 14th and 15th week. However, usually it is they say girl and its a boy not a boy turning out to be a girl. I am going to talk to a friend of mine that this happened to. She was told her 4th baby was a boy at 14 weeks 4 days and it turned out to be a girl.......She was hoping for a boy because she already had 3 girls so it was really hard for them to hear boy and then 5 weeks later be told girl. I am going to ask her about her experience and show her my scans to see if ours looked similar.

Thorz good plan try ;-s not to think about for three weeks! Sounds a challenge! Xx

Fish - how did your scan go?

[WantingPink]

Fish I am so sorry you are going through!! Please keep us updated. I really hope everything turns out well for you and little one.

Thorz I understand where you are coming from with the emotional roller coaster. I am sure you could call the place where you got the scan and tell them what your doctor said and see if they will get you in for a free, quick and dirty, gender scan in a week or two. Swollen girl parts should be back to normal by 18 weeks. I totally understand where you are coming from... I would not be happy if I was told two different things!! Hope everything is okay with your placenta previa also and that you don't have any more bleeding. Post pictures of the nursery!!

Are there any gender scans this week? I need something to look forward to

[Northern_Shutterbug]

I've got my anatomy scan (and to hopefully confirm gender) on Friday!

[Wanting-a-girl]

Wow I wouldn't be able to wait to find out thorz! You should call! One thing I learned with my current preg is that boys are pretty good at hiding their bits... I saw when he moved he looked girl and then another small movement and clearly all boy... Did the get a really good look this time?if so then maybe its a girl! that would be soooooo aweso


Fish I hope your appt goes well! That is very scary and a feeling I know all too well! I hope she's okay

I think ur first gender scan looked more like cord than penis for the record
