    Morning to all you gorgeous mummas out there

    Just a quick one from me this morning to let you all know that my scan went well yesterday.

    Here's the details..... Baby is still very stubborn and has been since our 1st scan at 7 weeks lol. Dr was trying to get a stomach measurement and he kept swallowing the amniotic fluid therefore his tummy kept expanding and decreasing eventually we got that one lol. tried to get a 3D pic of his little face except he kept putting his hand over it and turning to the side. Therefore we have a pic of a hand and an ear. My fears have been confirmed too. His head is a little bigger than average. I've always said he has a big head. Oh well atleast he's a healthy boy weighing around the 4 1/2lb mark atm. If we get to 40 weeks he'll be around 8lb. Dr doesn't think well get to that point though but who knows. Baby is head down too but definatley not engagaed yet.

    We had our last antenatal class last night and I have to say that I'm so very pleased that its over. Didn't get alot out of them but atleast we've done them and have a bit of an idea on what to expect from the hospital etc. All births are different and we really don't know what's going to happen at the time so we'll just go with the flow iykwim.

    Claire How are you doing hun? Hope you're hanging in there and tomorrow's not too far away now. Take care sweety.

    Hope you are all well.

    Wow Mako, that is fantastic. It just feels like time is just going by, you will be on the delivery bed in no time.

    lISMITH25, cheer up hun, totally agree with Kotare, maybe if you tell him, it might have an opposite effect.

    Sonya1, congratulations, hope it all goes well... wishing you many blessings.

    and Clairebear, hun, prayers for you, lots of hugs, just be strong and all will work out.

    well nothing for me, just really busy at work, hence why I have not been on BB for awhile. Have my 20 week scan on the 4th October so looking forward to that.

    Don’t think I have told you girls but DH and I are in the proves of donating our remaining 4 embryos to another couple interstate. We had decided from day one that if we were blessed with a successful IVF treatment we would donate what was left and if the pregnancy was to fail we would just start a fresh cycle. We were blessed to be successful first go so here we are. I am very excited and pray a lot for the receiving couple, they are wonderful and deserve this so much.

    Well that is it for me, talk to you girls soon.

    Ltl Panda - what a sweet thing you are doing. I hope you both get endless warm fuzzies knowing what you have done to help someone.
    Marcellus - hehehe my Dh reckons my bb's are bigger, but considering i'm still quite comfortable in the same bra, i think he is just wishful thinking. My jeans hurt a bit when i sit down - so i've got the button loose most of the time...classy aye
    Ohhh, Mako - things seem to be progressing so quickly. i hope you can keep bubs in there for as long as possible.

    Wow Mako, your little man is so naughty! (And cute!)

    That's so great Ltl Panda. DH and I have decided we'd like to donate, but reckon we'll hang onto our frozen ones for now in case we need them (we have this little fantasy that next time we'll conceive naturally...). I'd like to avoid another stim cycle if I can.

    I've bought myself some hipster jeans a size too big to escape the dreaded tracky dacks.

    And yes, i think it is just wishful thinking on DH's part.
