    Unfort they won't reveal gender at 20 week scan here so you have to pay to have private scan. It must be the only hospital that won't!

    Oh that's really poo :( I've checked and my hospital do if they can tell what it is! I don't blame you wanting to know. We're going to find out too. Really excited that we're due date twins :)

    I'm due on the 21st Nov, but I would bet that your babies come out before mine. My first was 10 days late, I was late as were my brother and sister- big bunch of lazy !!! babies!! DH was eager though he was 4 weeks early!

    Had our 20 week scan today, and we have a very wriggly little boy! I am over the moon, I was secretly hoping for a boy (I can say that now). And amazingly, we've already picked a name we both love.
    I finally feel really actually pregnant.

    I was 10 days late too. My poor mum!

    Am gagging for some scampi- can I eat it? Websites are a bit sketchy.

    Well we've just booked in for our 1st antenatal course.

    I say 1st cos haven't looked at any others yet and might not need too.

    We had to be quick as a friend of mine found out about it running at a location like 2 mins from us. We've unfortunately missed the 1st week but we're told we could still join.

    The same location doesn't have another one until Sept and that's too late and then the 2nd nearest location starts in July, however is 40 mins away.

    Prefer the closeness not only due to travel but because it means meeting people in our area. It runs for 6 weeks and then a catch up is organised with everyone later on when you bring your baby along.

    Can't wait...

    Got a busy day tomorrow, I myself will be at work but new flooring is going down in our porch, bedroom and baby's bedroom and then our class of course for 2.5 hrs in the evening.

    Ahh fluffysox that is my due date too! My scan is on the Wednesday, would have been Tues but I stupidly booked an early one before work. The suspense of seeing beany again is killing me!
    My scan is next Weds at 10am. So excited now! Got my little boy's 2nd birthday on Sunday and all I'm thinking about is the scan! Really want to know boy or girl even tho last time I was happy to leave it as a surprise. I think if they can't tell I'll have to look into a private scan- waiting another 20 weeks would kill me lol. Also meeting consultant for the first time after the
    scan to discuss options as last time I had an emergency c-section after a ridiculously long labour.

    Saw a Cbeebies announcement on fb earlier that Katy ( I can cook etc) is due in October. Thought she was- my belly is a similar size ;)

    Hi, back from a relaxing holiday in Spain.

    Have read through to catch up but can't remember enough to comment!

    Feeling fine. Changing body shape with bump forming. As I was overweight to start I think the bump isn't very notceable. I still 7lb less than when I found out I was pg. lost this weight by about week 10 so managed to stay the same since then which I am pleased about.

    18 weeks today, scan on 7 June.

    I haven't bought anything yet & not inclined to. Well I suppose I would love to but just cautious.

    I didn't find out with my son but had a feeling he was a boy but still bought neutral clothes/ etc then he was born and when they told me he was a boy I kinda just though 'yeh I knew that LOL' this time I would love to know as I felt it took me a long time to bond with him and of course I will know whether to keep his things/ buy girls clothes, etc. I think it will also be good for him to know whether he is having a brother or sister. Its great we are due date twins (or potentially close together as my scan notes contradict a little!) its nice having someone who is at the same stage as pregnancy.

    My son was overdue by 2 weeks!! I hope this baby isn't as late!!

    Congratulations Tiny on a blue bump :)
