    If it is a girl there is a definate trend to not dressing babies in pink. I see a lot of white and black for instance its cute classy.
    Re finding out the gender, we didnt with our first and I dont want to with this one but dh has mentioned he wants to. A girl is desperately wanted by my mum who has 4 grandsons and mil would be over the moon if we had a girl as she had two of her own sons and our boy is her only grandchild. Sounds silly but I am a bit worried about having a girl as I hate pink lol. Generally I am happy with either gender.

    in terms of decorating a room stickers are great, we had a rainbow stickers for our boy up until recently when dh brought loads of dinosaur stickers.

  • How was your midwife appointment Janed? Hope it went well for you.

    All the best for your midwife appointment tomorrow Georgie.

    All the best for your scan tomorrow, Princess Kate. Hope you're able to drink enough to get clear pics without being uncomfortable!

  • So I thought I'd spruce up the list a bit :) Its now numbered so we can see a bit clearer who is next to graduate, plus it can hopefully add a bit of excitement for those who are nearly there (i.e. me, haha! :p) I jumped up a place after my last scan so we're no longer date twins Princess!

    I've also put in red those who have technically graduated but we've not actually heard from to make it official. If you are still around louised78 and betti911 give us a shout to let us know how you are. We miss you! I don't want to just take people off but perhaps if they don't respond in the next few days or when someone else graduates then I'll take them off - hope I don't offend anyone by doing that :o

    Finally, hope all goes well for those who have appointments or scans tomorrow - Princess kate, Aunty-Pickle and georgie262.

    janed9388 - how did you get on today at your MW appointment?

  • List looks fab missy, thanks for doing it.

    Thanks all for the good wishes for tomorrow, I'm a bit nervous, just can't wait to see baby again but just hope everything is ok. My appointment is at 8.30, glad I won't have to be waiting around all day.

    Hope your midwife appt goes well georgie & lots of best wishes Aunty Pickle, what time is your scan? Please update, I can't wait to find out if you're having twinies!!
  • How was your midwife appointment Janed? Hope it went well for you.
    :)
    Thanks for asking Aunty-Pickle, everything went well with the midwife, it's the same one I saw in Feb before it all went wrong and she seems nice. Like others on the thread I got the "geriatric" label plastered all over my file and apparently as this is the case will be consultant led and will have a consultant appt. at 12 weeks. She even called the scan booking lady at the hospital to see if they had appointments for the 13/11 which is the only date I am not on Holiday for my 12 week scan, if they leave it later it'll be too late & they seemed confident they could book it once the paperwork through so all fingers and toes are crossed. Good luck with your scan today. Hope it all goes well.
  • Good luck for your scans today Princess Kate and Aunty Pickle! Hopefully see you both on the next thread later on :) x
  • All done at my booking & all was fine. Baby measuring fine, rubbish pictures as baby was lying front on, could see it dancing tho which was sweet. Had my BP, height, weight and bloods done & was out in about 2 hours. Relieved everything is fine tho, been moved a day so looks like missy moo & I are date twins again!
  • Of yeah forget the it could be twins scann eeekk give us an update auntie pickle
    :jMarried 16/07/2010, ds1 born 11/08/12, baby due 08/05/2015
  • So pleased everyone else's booking apt and scans have gone well!!!

    Anyway, so..... the main news is that there is only one baby!!!! They have dated me at 10+6 and EDD 15.04.2015 so moved a couple of days forward.

    The complication is that I have a large (9x9x9cm) growth that's "blocking the exit" as the sonographer put it. That's what's making me measure large and what the GP could feel.

    So, I have an appointment with the consultant obstetrician on 7th October, and have had a blood test today to test if it is anything "nasty". The chances of it being nasty are very small. They will then decide whether it needs to be removed soon or can wait until birth - which may have to be a c-section. If they wait I would have extra monitoring which I guess is no bad thing.

    So, it's been a roller-coaster of emotions and quite a few tears. So strange, being mentally prepared for it to be twins, seeing only one baby then the (very nice) sonographer saying there was something else there. We knew it could have been a fibroid or cyst or something but not completely prepared for the more serious implications that appear to be arising from it.

    They did give us 4 pics for free though!!

    So, not much else to say really!!

  • Hi all, just checking in for the last time as I had my scan on Friday and all was fine! What a relief! It turned out I was 13 weeks and not 12 AND they were able to tell me that I am carrying a little baby boy! so all in all great news. Best of luck to all of you guys in that hard first 3 months. It feels like forever but you will get there in the end, just like me! Thanks for all your advise and company, X
