Dreaming Pink Due Date Group: TTC and Beyond #2

[Emily]

My birth story is also a positive one - it was a long labour (32hrs of strong regular contractions) but a really good one. Drugs in the UK are amazing - for a start there is gas and air which i have never tried before and then mobile epidurals!?!?!

I was lucky that they agreed to give me one as i was 7 cm at the last check and the anaesthetist see me for another 20 minutes. The epidural was a weaker one ( i wanted to be able to feel contractions) and was able to top them up myself. i was able to walk around and go to the loo etc. I was allowed to go home the same day (about 12 hrs after we walked through the doors) which we r eally pushed for - the paperwork seemed to take as long as the labour itself!

Anyway i was soooooo glad that I Came back for the birth as things like mec in the amniotic fluid and heart rate fluctuations were dealt with so calmly and professionally I always felt confident and safe.

Here is the end resultimage.jpg

She's absolutely gorgeous and love the name Sophia. DH and I were thinking Sophie for a girl, Sophia wouldn't have gone with the surname as well. Don't not envy the 32 hour labour though - ARGH!

Enjoy! x

Gecon, you did so well & what a gorgeous little boy you have! Does he have a name yet?

Isaac got weighed today & at 6 & half weeks old he's 10lb 14oz. He's averaging 8oz a week which is great to know! He's definitely lost that shiny newness of a newborn BUT he's 'talking' & smiling now!

I love all the beautiful baby pictures, keep them coming.

Dream I love Isaacs cute little smile, he looks like such a happy baby.

Emily Sophia is beautiful. Look at all that dark hair!!

Meeks I can't believe you have only two weeks left I can't wait to see pics of little Lexi!

TTC and sun I am so excited for your scans this weeks, hope you'll finally see a heartbeat sun and TTC will find out gender!

AFM, I had another scan yesterday and am totally confused now. My OB wasn't that sure about baby A's gender anymore, the one who had the obvious girl potty shot at 15 weeks and was confirmed girl in hospital last week BUT all of a sudden baby B, the one who was 100% boy at 15 weeks looked very girly. She said it's not only missing boy parts that made her so sure about it but she could see labia and clitoris. I asked her how sure she was and she told me to go ahead and buy some pink but of course I don't know what to believe anymore. I feel so stupid posting this as I feel cheated and like I am wasting your time with my gender confusion. Baby A being a boy and baby b girl would make sense when looking at the nubs as well but I guess I have to wait for my anatomy scan in 3 weeks to know for sure. DH was a little pissed and started regretting that we didn't stay team green but there is no way I could have done that.

Dream, Isaac is sooo cute. Love that cheeky smile.

Emily, thanks for sharing your birth story. Sophia is such a cutie too.

Pumpkin, sorry there is so much confusion about your mini-pumpkins' gender. But I think you are still safe that there is at least one pink bundle in there. Could there also be some confusion between different doctors as to which baby is baby A and B?

AFM, not much new to report. Absolutely in love with our latest family addition and loving DS1's love for his wee brother. He keeps going to him saying: "You are so cute, aren't you, wee baby?"

Two pics to share:

1st one: Left pic is DS1 and right one DS2, I reckon you can tell they are brothers.

2nd one is of the wee man sleeping.

Pumpkin, what a cute pic of your LO. As for the scan, I am sorry, but I cannot make anything out, neither penis nor anything else. When will you see them again? At your 2nd big scan in about 3 weeks?

[Pumpkin2011]

Unfortunately yes GeCon. The arrow is pointing at what the OB said is the penis.
