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

[Praying4Pink]

"Batsh*t crew"..bahahaha! I'm loving it. If nothing else, that will entertain and comfort me until the 23rd. 7 days and counting...

EmmyRoo, you're right-putting this off because I'm scared of the answer won't change anything. It will only prolong my fantasy, that can't be in my best interest. Still, I get sweaty thinking about the scan. I've never wanted something so bad and had so little say in it.

Yeah I guess we have to figure...we HAVE to find out sooner or later. I mean they can't stay in our bellies forever. They will come out eventually, lol. I am enjoying my little fantasy for now. Lord help me the day of the u/s because if I do hear girl...I am going Pinterest crazy! I am having the pinkest pink party in the history of pink parties. By the way...IF it is a girl my theme is going to be "sugar and spice".

Welcome 4leafclover!

Violet I am so happy for you that you saw a healthy baby. Your nub shots look VERY promising for pink - and yours too Maple! I really hope so for both of you.

I had my 12 week appointment with my GP. Bub is still in there alive and well, and I explained my lack of wish to see a nub shot which GP took in his stride. The image was so small on his machine anyway I don't think I could have seen anything even if I wanted to. We have announced it to the world this afternoon which is nice... and to my amazement in around 40 FB messages so far I have only had one person commenting on gender (and not rudely). I thought I would be inundated with rude comments about the gender and almost put a defensive "hold the comments" type comment in amongst my announcement... glad I didn't!

Hope everyone else is doing well and that morning sickness etc is not treating anyone too badly.

I know it could be premature but I'm almost certain that I'm having a little girl. I've seen boys, I've had three and none of them where ever like this. I will wait for my next ultrasound in 6 weeks to confirm but I'm so sure this is my baby girl. I can't believe it but am pretty sure too. So glad I had the ultrasound yesterday!

With how far along I am, I must have been already a few days pregnant before we went away on our honeymoon so will adjust my sway attempt thread to reflect that. That would make my sway attempt a much better and stronger sway as we used aci jel, a full tube every night (maybe a bit much but I wasn't taking any chances) and had daily intercourse for over a week. So makes sense that it worked for us.

With the extra fluid, I'm not sure how that happens, I will ask my doctor when I go next but tech showed me how there is a lot of space above baby in my ultrasound pics. If you have a look at the pics I have posted you can see so much dark area above babe. Compare with other ultrasound pics and you will see what I mean.

We've got to come up with a girl name too now, I've never allowed myself to dare dream too much about it. Oh the joy. Can't believe this is happening - to me!

Oh wow Violet! That's amazing! I think that nub is extremely hopeful! I can't wait for your confirmation scan. Just incredible. I hope my scan goes something like that... I'm getting more and more hopeful as time goes along right now. I try to settle on a boys name and somehow just can't because I don't feel like this is a boy... Ugh. 2 weeks until my 12 week scan. Time is dragging. I'm still sick too.. Maybe even sicker this week.. Hoping its the peak before it all subsides. I'm so over feeling crappy. I really really feel for hyperemesis gravidarium sufferers.. Ew. Can't think of feeling yucky for the whole time.. anyways.. Hi to the newbs and congrats to the lucky girl mummas. Big kisses and hugs all round xx

Violet that's so exciting! I'm so jealous! The more I think about it the more all the signs are pointing to this being another boy. I'm hardly nauseous at all, I conceived virtually in a full moon, in November so summer baby, I didn't take vitex or Clomid or saw palmetto and stressed/obsessed so much I probably had higher testosterone than DH, I have a bump-shaped stomach (although 90% fat it looks like a bump rather than fat) and everyone was saying on the bump pics thread that girl bumps are more of a thickening waistline than a bump shape. Oh it's so depressing, why does it have to be so hard to just have a girl?! All the girl mums in the world who do it without trying and I can't do it when I've followed (most of) the instructions!

Sorry for the self-pity, I'm so happy for everyone getting their DG, just wish it was happening to me too.

Oh take heart Emmyroo. I had three boys before I got my girl (if I'm not falsely convincing myself, but I am very hopeful). I know what it feels like for years wanting a little girl so bad.

Hopingforsaskia - hun, I've been there, was so sick from 5-11 weeks this pregnancy. Really hope things are just about to improve for you.

myfourleafclover - Welcome hunni!

Cvd - I like the name Maverick, but I LOVE the name Hudson. He's just a cute little man.

Maple - You might very well have two little girls on board. How cool is that? Very.

To everyone else, hope you are all doing well.

Violet!
You have a girly nub there! Very flat. Oh you are going to be desperate for that next scan huh?! That is so exciting.. And I like your positivity too XX
You should post on the u/s gender prediction forum if you have not already??

I have got all girl guesses so far.. Im excited, but totally getting my hopes up. I am scared to fall flat and be even more disappointed now if I hear blue.. My next u/s is in 3 weeks. So close, yet so far, lol.

Congratulations on a healthy bean! That scan is excellent reassurance huh?
Yay for announcing to the world too! So good to hear you had positive comments and not thoughtless dribble. Good luck for a H & H pregnancy

Thanks for the girl vibes too XX
