    Firsly, CONGRATS millyd!! How very exciting for you!! Lots of sticky vibes being sent your way...

    Scan today.... turns out it's 90% chance of being a baby GIRL!! DP and I are over the moon at the news, it was fantastic seeing our baby on the screen!!

    She had her hands above her head, like a ballerina, the whole time!! I'm in love with my daughter! Let's hope it is a girl, won't be going overboard with the pink though, just in case we're wrong!!

    Preggers again

    Hi everyone, I'm new here . . .
    Firstly, congratulations to all you pregnant ladies - look forward to hearing about your little bundles of joy as they progress!

    Took a home test today and I'm pregnant again after miscarrying on Mar 19 - no AF. Very happy but also burst into tears when I saw it, remembering last time. Estimating that I'm 4w4d, but will have to wait for a scan to confirm.

    Thinking I might wait a week or two before confirming at my GP - last time I got a negative result at the GP because it was too early and had to wait another week anyway.

    Trusting and praying

    dory: if DF was home during the day i'd hardly be online at all.
    it was more of a fluke that i'm due on GF day, as i fell approx 7-8weeks after we lost Everson, i know it's going to be interesting to see if i go on my EDD because it's going to be hilarious if i do. I might crochet myself a bunny rug and just incorporate all the colours of the NRL teams.

    HPL: congratulations on expecting a GIRL

    Jen10: congratulations on your + HPT, maybe leave it a few days and test again?. I know with this bub i tested twice in a week and they were both feint +'s and when i went to the doctor he didnt do any tests but it seems i was only 3-4weeks.

    Jen10 - congrats girl! How exciting for you, and we all understand the fear/anxeity/sadness that mixes with the happiness of a BFP. I was soo soo keen to have this pregnancy confirmed that I took multiple HPT's and then was at the GP. I didn't want a blood test to confirm, just a POAS, but done by someone else. It came back loud and strong for me at the GP's. I was over the moon. I have read that HPT's will not be wrong for a +ive but can give false -ive's, if the HCG levels are not high enough when you test. I wouldn't be able to wait if I were you.

    HPL - congrats on expecting a little girl to your family. Go and buy a few girlie things for your daughter, if the prediction isn't correct, you can always go out and get some non girlie things if you need to. But how nice will it be if you have some outfits you have chosen for your girl to wear straightway!

    Bonham - that would be potentially a really lurid bunny rug! I have one of those but its in pastels..... Does that mean you are about 19/20 weeks now with this pregnancy?

    19 weeks today for me. I am getting excited about all ( well not all, can do without heartburn or other nasties) of the aspects of pregnancy I have yet to experience.... getting a big big tummy and waddling. Who would think someone would get excited about that! Has anyone had cravings? I seem not to have had them yet .... I wish I would get one for icecream.

    dory: it would be a pretty funky colourful bunny rug i'm 17weeks 3days atm, i'll be 18weeks this Sunday so by the time i have my 18week scan i'll be 18weeks 5days. Wow your only a week or two ahead of me. I dont know whether what i eat is "cravings" i basically eat whatever i want (within reason) and nothing that i wouldn't normally eat.

    Hi all,
    Sorry i have been so slack on the posting.

    Millyd & Jen10 - Huge Congratulations on your BFP's. Take each day as it comes and be positive!

    Hope.Positive.Love - Congratulations on a baby GIRL. It makes it so real when you know what you are having. And gee there are some mighty cute girls clothes out there!!

    Dory - Antenatal classes were good. From doing lots of reading and reading birth stories on belly belly i felt that i already knew everything we talked about. I havent had any heartburn. People always ask me if ive got it. Wouldnt even know what it feels like. Hopefully you wont get the not so nice symptoms of pregnancy. Yay for 19 weeks... The second half will fly by!

    Bonham08 - Wow 18 weeks. When is your next scan? Will you find out the sex??

    Belly rubs to everyone else that i have missed.

    AFM - Had 36 week scan last Friday. Baby is head down and ready to go. Had to have his kidneys checked out and they look good too. Still a little distended but his bladder is working and he has heaps of fluid around him so they are confident that nothing is wrong. We will probably need to take him for a scan on his kidneys at 6 weeks just to be sure but im not even going to worry about it until we have to. 37 weeks tomorrow and counting down!
