Hi All
We are Team Blue.
But have been told he is most likey to have a club right foot.
Very distraught and didn't listen to anything after they told us that.
Baby was face down so couldn't get a picture. We have another scan in a couple of weeks to confirm and then will be referred. However feel very blessed that we have a son.
Hope everyone elses scans today went OK

Hi Snoopytweety
Thankyou for your kind words and the hugs x
Yes very upset, but we are overjoyed we are having a son
They have booked us to have another scan to re-check 22/12 and then we will be referred to a consultant. OH and I are very positive after the initial shock as treatment is given when they are still a baby and according to internet is quite successful
OH just seen that Steven Gerard (England & Liverpool) had a club foot...so maybe we will be able to retire early:)Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

Hi ladies.
Glimmer, sorry your scan showed a problem, just been reading the replies on your thread about it and it sounds like the treatment is usually quite successful so fingers crossed it'll all be ok in the end.
Well my baby is VERY naughty!!! It was laid all scrunched up and the lady could only get the measurement of the femur, nothing else! So we were sent for a walk and I was ordered to eat chocolate then she tried again! Well it had moved a bit but she still couldn't get the measurements she needed! So I have to go back on the 28th for a re-scan.......that will be my 8th scan! I don't hold out much hope for the little monster behaving any better though, it was just as bad at our 16 week scan. Anyway, the lady said that everything she could see looked fine, she just couldn't get the measurements so hopefully all is ok.
Small consolation prize.....it did briefly pose so we got a piccy:
Just to prove how awkwardly the little monster was laid, that blod infront of its nose....that's its knee!!!0 -
ah the little monster Lisa - aren't they terrible!!! What a cute piccy though - one to embarrass the little monkey with in a few years - hey!
Glad all is ok as far as she can tell, I was getting worried about you x x x
Hopefully mine will behave as booked another scan tomorrow! to hopefully find out gender x x xMarried the Man of my dreams 30/08/2008Baby No.1 arrived 04/04/2012, gorgeous little girl after 4 years of fertility issues!!:j:T0 -
Oooh yeah, I take it you have to go over a bridge for it? Hope he/she behaves and you get to find out. Apparently its a good job we don't want to know as she wouldn't be able to see....surprise surprise!!!0

Nope - not over the bridge, the other way to that beautiful Cathedral city where I am actually from!!!
I am glad for your sanity that you don't want to know - little one is clearly happy being tucked up, where as ours was outstretched behaving the whole time, right up until he had finished measuring and was looking for girl or boy bits!! x x x xMarried the Man of my dreams 30/08/2008Baby No.1 arrived 04/04/2012, gorgeous little girl after 4 years of fertility issues!!:j:T0 -
Luckily we wanted to find out and had already said so, as the first thing we all saw when they started the scan was a full on bits display.0
