Yay Congrats Nic! Well done! Hope you are feeling a lot better and enjoying being home with the kids Now i might be having a blonde moment but what is the gorgeous ones name?

you sound so in love and it is wonderful!

Devon - Ooops that was a definate blonde moment! Scan next week good luck and i cant wait to hear the news!

Scooby - Have you thought about maybe waiting and asking her to the 19 week scan if you are really nervous about this one? Just do whatever you are more comfortable with and i will have everything crossed for you for wonderful results and nice little show for your bubba next week.

Congratulations, Nic! So happy to hear everything has gone well. I hope you're recovering quickly, and that you enjoy being Mum to your beautiful new baby boy. So glad that you're feeling so content!

Devon - welcome to the thread I've just joined in here too. I know you'll find everyone here really understanding and supportive of what you're feeling at the moment. What you've mentioned about being fearful is really common for women who have experienced loss and/or difficulty on their journey to have a child, so please know how much we do understand and appreciate how you are feeling. It's a big step to start talking about your pregnancy and how you're feeling, so good on you for getting in here and posting I really hope that your NT scan goes well - I'll be thinking of you on Wednesday.

scooby - I agree with Shannon, hun. I think you need to do first ahead of anything else what is going to make you feel the most comfortable on the day of the scan. If it's making you feel more nervous about any potential results from the scan (which I'm hoping very much, and I'm sure they will be great results, given how well everything has been going so far) with the thought of having your Nan there, then maybe it's best if you ask your Nan to the next scan you have, or even find out if they can provide you with DVD/video footage of the scan, and pictures that you can show her after the event, when you're feeling relaxed and ok about it. I think BW mentioned that at her most recent scan she was able to get DVD as well as pictures, so I'm sure there's some places that do this, and it's worth checking. Of course it's important that your Nan has the opportunity to experience your pregnancy, particularly with her concerns, but always remember that you, your feelings and your needs come first. I think it's really lovely that you're thinking about your Nan's needs, hun. I'll be thinking about you Monday, and I hope the m/s starts to improve for you soon!

to BW, Shan, Arielle, Lenny, lis and everyone else who's in the thread at the moment. Hope you're all doing well, and I'm thinking of you
