Silver!

Congrat Gel-Bel! Another boy, can't wait to see what everyone else is having.

Thanks for the link StrawberryMilk. Sounds like a study I could definitely take part in! I'll look into it more. Are you go to try to get involved?

Welcome Feistycat, look forward to hearing all about you.

MonkeysMum sounds like a difficult decision. Hope it all works out in the end, and no one ends up too upset with the outcome.

I'm glad it's only me and DP. And (hopefully) when we're expecting no.2, no.1 won't be old enough to have a say!

I'm looking so forward to feeling movements, Misty123. I've definitely felt things that could be movements, but I couldn't be certain. Hopefuly in a couple of weeks I'll know for sure.

Afm, I've been pretty exhausted lately. The heat is really taking it out of me, and I'm not sleeping well. Still getting fairly bad morning sickness, especially when I'm exercising. I'm finding it challenging to keep up the exercise, but not over do it. I think I need to cut down on the intensity a bit. As going to a session at the gym shouldn't wipe me out for the entire night. Plus, every time I've left the gym lately, I've been so light-headed, I've needed to sit down for a good half hour before even thinking about driving home. Not good...

Should be booking in for my 20 week scan today. I'm hoping to get 1st February, which will be 20w1d.

Wow another boy...it is so exciting to read about all of the scans and how everyone is progressing well. I have my scan on the 31st which seems like ages away but hopefully the days will go fast. I am not finding out the gender as much as I hate surprises I am determined to keep this a surprise.

Hope everyone still to have scans that all goes well, have a wonderful day everyone biggrin.gif

Geez, rush on the blue clothes!! biggrin.gif Congrats, my girl scan is still up in the air apparently. But seeing as its just 2 of us so far, I hope I stay on team pink, lol original.gif
Anybody looking a 3d scans? Nobody does itin my area, I would have to travel to the city. My main reason is solely gender determination, so maybe I should save for something that's actually needed. Any thoughts?

Hey ladies,
Just want to say I'm still here and have been stalking, just havent had much to say. Congrats on all your scan results. Ours isnt for ages yet and were not finding out so feel a bit left out of all the 'craze' of everyone getting gender scans. My good news tho is I have pretty much come off the meds and not sick anymore (...mostly...touch wood). I have even returned to doing some walks and feel slightly human.

My BP has still been low and my ob keeps telling me to try caffeine to boost it, despite me saying im hypersensitive to it. (Also seems like a really weird way to treat low BP too if you ask me). Anyways I decided to give it a go, thinking maybe my hypersensitivity all these years was my imagination or somehow it would be different now im pregnant. hmmm. So I bought some iced coffee poppers (equivalent caffeine as a cup of tea) and tried them out. Well it did nothing for my BP but I was bouncing off the walls yesterday (...great I hear you say) but even tho I had it for breakfast I still couldnt sleep all night! And then cause I was so tired today and had a huge day at work to face, I had to have another one this morning didn't I! So I have been running around like a headless chook all day and am utterly exhausted but know that there is no way I'm going to sleep again tonight. oomg.gif I think I'll have to face the heap Im am going to fall into tomorrow and put the rest of the drinks in the bin. My husband is not impressed with all my tossing and turning!

Anyways nothing else much to report hear, just wanted to say hi and that I haven't abandoned you all :-)

La la la.
Just wanted to share...
Felt my little monkey wriggling away today. bbabyflip.gif
It's the first time I have felt him moving, so I'm crazy excited.
Can't wait to feel the kicks. But regular movement is awesome!
Hope everyone is feeling just as awesome.

Woyapp - of course! I'll do everything I can to make sure I don't develop pre-eclampsia, even if it means having to eat chocolate every day...if I can help others then how can I refuse? rolleyes.gif

Feeling lots of movement, and not just butterflies anymore, but actual kicks. I felt a good few the other night with my hand. At first I thought bubs had the hiccups because they were so frequent but after about a minute it faded away...other times I will get a kick low down, so I'll put my hand there, then i'll get one up around my belly button, then back down low again, this thing sure is active!

Finding out if it's a boy or girl first thing Monday morning. We are taking DD who is 3 1/2 with us and she is adamant she is having a sister. Even if we refer to it as a he she cuts us off and says 'no, it's a baby sister!'. I hope she is a) correct or b) not too upset if she is having a brother! I'm sure once we get a few things for it she will come around and by the time 'he' arrives she will fall in love with 'him'.
Excited and nervous!!
