20 week scan :)

After what seemed like ages of waiting, yes I am impatient, had my 20wk scan today at 20+5.....what an amazing experience!! I'd heard a horrible story about a girls bad news at this scan a couple of weeks ago, so I am so relieved and thankful to report that everything was as it should be! Baby was cooperative in getting all measurements taken, and I got to see so much! I had been worried as I have felt so little but it turns out my placenta is positioned between baby and my skin, so that wud explain it! Ahhhhh, in a very happy little bubble now with hubby.....haha and no we didn't find out the gender, fancy a little surprise!

Arrrwwwh that's nice. & good for you by willing to wait to see the baby gender. I personally couldnt do it. i think i remember being a Lil hasty & asking the midwife if she'd got down there yet when i was having my scan LoL!

How lovely! I'm so glad it turned out so fantastically (not least as mine is a week today and it's nice to read positive stories!).

Also very impressed with your fortitude in not finding out the gender. My OH and I are going to do so (mainly so we can cut the naming arguments in half)

Haha! Thankfully we'd both said from the start we wouldn't find out sooooo it might be a long wait until November!! Think I was just so relieved to see it wiggling around that I didn't care!!

Ahh congrats glad all is ok xx

Aw good luck for urs! It really is magical and helps everything sink in a little more. As it is baby number1 for us, we feel a bit clueless! Oh I am with u on the names, don't no how we'll ever come to an agreement! I only announced my pregnancy on fri to every one, apart from family n close friends who knew, nd feel like I can finally enjoy it all!
