Hey everyone,

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas and also have a great New year! 🎉 🎊

We had a private scan today and found out we’re having a baby boy 💙 we’re over the moon!

Very healthy and wriggly, would not stay still! It’s no wonder I’m so sick 😂

I wish you’s all the luck in the world for 2018 and hope all your dreams come true! 😘 sending love to all xxx ❣️

Thank you 😀 won’t be too long until your scan now? How you getting on? Xxx

I’m waiting for the NHS one probably though it’s possible it will show on the fetal cardiac scan next week. We have to have that because of the high nuchal measurement of one of the twins. We’re also waiting for NIPT result so it’s a bit nerve wracking at the mo (consultant recommended it though our combined test came back low risk). Can’t wait to find out their sexes. Sorry you’re not feeling much better. I’m mostly ok now but still some nausea in the evenings, when I’m tired mostly. And my back is pretty sore from only sleeping on one side or the other. But not complaining. Hoping the new big v pillow will make a difference. Wishing you all the best for the rest of your pregnancy xxxx

Hope all goes well with your scan next week. I’m sure they’ll be able to tell sexes then which will be lovely 🙂

Glad your feeling a little better. I’ve seen those pillows. I may invest in one!

Thank you, and you 😘 stay in touch xxx

Fredaflintstone in reply toAmanda86

Thank you! I’ll let you know how I get on with the pillow. Gonna test its tonight. Yes you stay in touch too! Xx

Fredaflintstone in reply toRubinaa

Congratulations! I’ve got a couple scans coming up - 20 week scan at end of Jan and a fetal cardiac scan next week because of the high nuchal fluid measurement we had. Perhaps they’ll be able to see then. If not we’ll wait til end Jan. Where are you based Rubinaa? I’m in East London. X

Amanda86 in reply todexter21

I was just texting my friend saying I thought this second part your meant to feel blooming and full of beans! She said I never ever felt good I’m like 😐 lol!!

These little boys are giving us a rough time!! 💙 lol xxx

dexter21 in reply toAmanda86

I don't feel good at all I'm sick every day can only eat cereal drink about 4 pints of milk a day and have really bad reflux .

It will so be worth it but it's tough I really wanted to enjoy it as Well xxxx

Amanda86 profile image
Amanda86 in reply todexter21

I’m the same the sickness just won’t go, I have occasional days where it’s fine but then it hits bad again and I can’t eat anything without vomiting 😖 I’m so worried because I can’t gain weight but hoping I will start to soon.

I know, I really wanted to be one of those people who just had the most amazing pregnancy, mainly because people who complained really annoyed me! I do get it now though - it’s tough but as you say it’ll be so worth it! I think we can appreciate more with what we’ve been through, we do feel guilty about feeling rubbish where as other people just complain without a thought for anyone else xxx

dexter21 in reply toAmanda86

That's so true I feel like I shouldn't complain but it's so hard I've just had my morning reflux sickness I'm good till 10 now😂😂😂.hope u feel better soon xxx

Oh Amanda 💙💙💙 😍😍😍 I know you would have been happy either way but I’m so excited for you both xxxxx

Amanda86 profile image
Amanda86 in reply toSprinkles86

Thank you so much. We had no preference at all (I think after IVF most of us lose the preference and just want a healthy baby!) but we both really thought a girl, don’t know why. Was a lovely surprise when it was boy though 💙 how are you keeping? Xxx

Sprinkles86 profile image
Sprinkles86 in reply toAmanda86

You’re so right, I don’t have a preference either way really. I’m doing great, easing off the steroids now and had a private scan this morning measuring 12+2 😍 starting to think this actually happening now.... xxx

Congratulations! We’ve found out at our 20 week scan a couple of days ago that we’re having a boy too 💙

Just shows that the old wives tales about girls making you more sick are not true! Although nowhere near as bad as your sickness, I was constantly nauseous right up to about 16 weeks.

Amanda86 profile image
Amanda86 in reply tokt_11

Thank you and congratulations to you too 💙💙

Your so right, all symptoms I had pointed to a girl, the only thing I had which suggested a boy was excessive saliva production but just shows you it just really is down to the individual pregnancy and symptoms don’t really mean anything! Xxx

Seek all goes well after your sweep one week from now. I'm certain they'll have the capacity to tell genders then which will be exquisite. Happy your inclination somewhat better.
