Hey, Princess...Just compared a scan I had at 8w5d (although I by my O date I was further along) and it looks pretty similar so you may be 9 wks easily. I'm no expert but my pic looks pretty close to yours! Beautiful little bean!!!

My DH said that picture of the baby looks different than the other ones with the boys at 8 weeks....it looks bigger! So I maybe farther along than than 8 weeks...we shall see what Dr. say on Monday....and yes to wait the whole weekend... is gonna be such a drag.
Hope everyone is doing well this day! I am still have m/s and I really hate it...the pill are not helping at all.....gggrrrr......I guess I just suffer thru the next 4 weeks or so!

Princess, here's my pic that I was talking about. I think your baby looks a wee bit further along than mine I think. Hope your m/s subsides soon. I know it's sooooooooo tough, especially when you're in charge of other kiddos!

Hi girls, how is everyone doing?

Foxy - congrats on your BFP! I'm due on the 24th of May too.

I am feeling sicker and sicker. My midwives haven't gotten back to me yet, but I'm wondering if I should push for an appointment soon to see if they can recommend anything. This morning sickness stuff is no joke - I always kinda thought ppl were exagerating when they said how bad it was! Guess I was just lucky with the first two.

Has anyone told their family yet? Did you get good reactions? Any bad reactions? I am hoping to keep my pregnancy secret for a bit longer but we are visiting family this weekend - not sure how I can keep it secret if I am looking so sick! I think the reactions will be ok, just want to wait until I think of a creative way to share the news.

Hope you all have a good weekend!

Hey, tweedle!!! Congrats!!! I didn't know you got a BFP! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!! I'm so very sorry you've got bad m/s. The only thing that got my through it w/my last 2 was that I was growing a healthy bean in there and the sickness would stop at some point. My heart goes out to you b/c I've been there!!!

I made DH tell my parents that we would be TTC soon (back in June). My Mom would always try to pressure me into not having a 3rd, I think mostly b/c I got soooooo sick w/the other 2 pregnancies. I also think she was thinking about college, etc. and how a third would be expensive. After DH told her (she just adores DH so he's my secret weopon when it comes to my Mom), she was a lot better and couldn't help expressing her excitement that this one would hopefully be a girl. It seems that as much as I want a girl this time, my Mom wants a girl 100x more than I do (if that's even possible!). Talk about pressure...It'll really suck telling her it's a boy and I really hope he (if it is a "he") will get the same attention from her as the other 2. She's just sort of starting to give our DS#2 almost equal amounts of love/attention as she gives DS#1. Jeeeze...It makes me really sad!

So sorry for the rant! I hope all goes well w/your family visit. I'm sending you lots of NO M/S vibes!!!

I'm sorry Morning sickness sucks a$$. I've had it worse with each child(longer by 2 weeks each time...so this time I should have it until 22 weeks! Yippee!), and this time is by far the nastiest I feel ill ALL day long...need to eat constantly but don't feel like it....gag and dry heave most of the day. I don't like to take anything for it so I just suffer through it. I do take B6 100mg a day with my folic acid though. It's supposed to help. I don't know if it does though...too afraid to stop taking it to see...LOL

Oh and about telling family...we told at 6 weeks HAHAHA! My mom I told after I poas! She knew we were trying for a fourth though...we're very close. Everyone was totally fine with the news.....they think we're crazy anyway, so it was not a shock at all to them. Kinda nice actually. I figure if they weren't shocked that hubby and I had our baby at home by ourselves....nothing is going to shock them! LOL!

Oh Blue! I am in the same boat! My mom is REALLY hoping for a girl this time...not just for her but for me....she knows how desperately I want a daughter. So it's even more pressure. And other than our kids, my BIL has a boy and they plan on adopting another boy in the future. My sis won't have children. One other BIL will never have children either...so that leaves us and one other BIL to supply the grandparents with their GIRL. The thing that pisses me off is that the one BIL who will most likely start TTC with his wife soon will get all girls...I can see it. Sigh~ Oh well. What will be will be.
Big hugs Girly!!! xoxo

Really I can't tell what I am looking at half the time let alone for if it looks bigger then usual But we will see on Monday who is right! Me or Dr.

Congrats Tweedle......and welcome to Sept. chit chat!
And I feel you pain!! I have had horrid m/s with all my pg's.....with Ds#1 and#2 I thought I would die...but then with DS#3 and #4 it wasn't as bad and I could deal......but this time slam right back to bad again...sigh....I keep saying just a few more weeks and it will be over..just a few more weeks and it will be over!

And for so reason today I am actually thinking I would love to have another boy! It would make things so much easier since I have everything......plus I just keeping thing about what my Evan would have looked like and I keep see a sweet little boy in a car seat sleeping. I think the hardest part would be for me picking a name.....but maybe not......DS#2 wants another brother....when you ask him why he says because I like my brothers! That one has my heart no doubt he is a love and my cuddler.
So I am really thinking right now I want another boy...if by chance I hear girl she would be more than loved.....but i may miss not have that little boy....stange I know!

[zanacal]

I am excited at the prospect of another boy too princess - and I know my boys would love another brother!

I have been extremely lucky never to have had morning sickness before (don't hit me!) but I've felt rotten all afternoon and I have heartburn (also haven't suffered with that!). Must be my age

I've just pimped my Phil & Ted's pushchair I had been considering a new pushchair but I think we may still need the double sometimes, even if DS2 only hops on now and again when he's tired (though I'll sling the bubba lots too). Ours' is looking a little ropey so I bought a new shopping basket, new handle bar cover and new seat inserts. It'll be just like having a new pushchair but at a fraction of the cost! This I feel I can do now because we use the pushchair for DS2 regardless of whether a new baby is on its way.

I'm with you and Z I feel really sad thinking about NEVER having a daughter...but when I think about my little blue bundle...it makes me pretty happy inside. We have a great name...our boys are thrilled with another baby and really don't care in the end what it is.....my hubby would love either...we KNOW boys...have all the stuff...it's easier to wiz in the trees when you need to on long trips(LOL!). I love my boys, they love each other and I know once the pain eases a bit....I will feel complete Once I find out what I'm having, I'm going to start making stuff for babe as well, so if it's BLUE....I've picked the most beautiful quilt to make him I'm excited about that. I'm thinking about our Disney trip in a few years with my Boys....plus it's just easier in the Xmas cards! LOL Dh, myself, and the boys LOL
