    You just reminded me Glam... Dr yesterday told me the heartbeat was about 160bpm... First time I've been told... Midwife never says... So does that indicate blue of pink? lol

    Doesn't indicate sex unfortunately!

    Should range between 140 and 160 I think, if u get stressed or upset it drops but if you are happy or laughing it gets higher.
    You must have been in a good mood! I'm at work so a bit stressed but not anywhere near as much as I used to be.

    Hey, thought u was a 'surprise' girl?!! You shouldn't be guessing :naughty:

    6 sleeps til my next scan :j

    I was in a good mood... I had a nice Dr... And I am a surprise girl... Which means I can play at guessing because we don't know :p

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Do u have any ideas at all what it could be?

    I don't, I have no idea either way - no feelings or anything. I think that's partly why I want to find out because it means I get a little bit of information about my baby now and then tons when he/she is born.

    Whoever mentioned the skin to skin contact with OH - thanks!
    It was great and he really enjoyed it being so close to me and Bean. I was kinda hoping he/she might give a little kick but not yet.

    Thanks guys, feel like I have a huge ball inside me!

    Re skin to skin contact - hubby trimmed his chest last night. We have put in birth plan that if I am in no fit state that skin to skin contact must happen immediately with daddy.

    Someone mentioned that they have lots of naked cuddles with OH so that he feels part of bubba more, this is what I meant rather than skin to skin contact after birth. I told OH I wanted him to feel my bump close against him - I'm trying to make it more OUR pregnancy IYSWIM.

    When I mentioned him doing skin to skin after birth if I can't he said 'Eurgh they better wash it first' - hello that's not the point!

    He's actually being really involved which I love but everytime I mention nursery he says no!

    We are deciding tonight if we are going to get the half price nursery set from Argos as I think it's a great deal.

    We hadn't heard about this skin to skin when i had my ds four years ago . I had an emergancy section under GA so the min he was born he went to his dad who wasn't allowed in the theatre. He felt quite embarrassed i think when the nurse told him to strip ;) to have skin to skin contact. I'm glad he did it though as i was unconcious for 6 hours and he only had his dad.
