Grease- that's great the dr. Said girl! It must be true or very very close to being a girl.
Pfp- glad to year you booked a scan, it's so hard waiting. It sounds like you have a very good chance of hearing girl!
Afm- weight gain anyone?? I thought for sure since I'm having a girl I would be small and not gain tons of weight...well wrong. I'm a smaller person 5'4 about 118 lbs usually, but always had big babies. My last was 8lbs9..I'm 25 weeks and huge will have to post another picture. I know I shouldn't stress but really don't want a 9 lb baby. Maybe it's because I'm older now at 35 yrs? Oh well more exercise I guess.

I always get big when I'm pregnant so I know what you mean. But sometimes that doesn't mean the baby is big, it's just us getting chubbier, bloat, etc. I thought my last boy would be huge (although he was my biggest) but he was a normal 3.720kg little boy. It was just ME putting on weight that I shouldn't! I kind of forgive myself when I'm pregnant and do not obsess over my weight, but I can see I am getting quite big and I'm not even 20 weeks yet! Scary!

me too, aidansmum... I'm gaining a bit to quickly! probably because now if it is midnight and I want a bowl of cereal I have it.
I'm trying to cut down on a little of the extra eating.

Thanks ladies!!

I am still not showing or gaining any weight unfortunately I have lost so much weight that it's harder for me to gain it back but hoping I start doing so very fast!!!

I am 17 weeks now and I'm not feeling nausea everyday but it still hits me, yesterday was a particularly bad day, and always in the afternoon, I always tell DH my MS starts at 4:30 and finishes at 6:30, always the same. And yesterday I was so so tired I collapsed in bed mid-afternoon and slept straight away, it's not only drowsiness, it's fatigue in a level I'm not used to, it's awful! I thought it would have gone by now, I was so much more energetic with the boys! I guess it's all worth it to grow my little girl, but certainly not fun.

I always had energy with the boys too until late in the pregnancy when my iron levels went down..With this one, I have to take a nap every day and I usually don't wake up until 11 in the morning :/

I think girlies drain us much more than boys do, that's for sure! And yes, I do think strongly that you are having a girl Grease. DH has told me the same as your mother, not to buy anything pink yet, even though we have the Harmony results he doesn't believe it until he sees it on the scan :/ What a downer!

Lovely bump! My bump seems to vary on a daily basis - I must have loads of 'hidden space' in there.
