Due March/April/May 2017

[purple]

What date do you think I should go with? Based on LMP I'm 12w 5d which actually matches up with the scan from the other day... or my ticker which I based on ovulation date. I know it doesn't really matter in the scheme of things but I'm wondering which date to use if I get a gender scan at 15wks?

I'm still feeling really cruddy at the mo, all day nausea which is only marginally helped by eating all day long which really isn't helping my weight gain �� On the plus side though, I did find baby's heartbeat on my Doppler last night running at about 165bpm!

I've not heard of sneak peek either but I don't think I could rely upon it with so many false results...x

Purple I would go with lmp date, if you had cycles at 28 days it would be accurate

3's a charm I'm right there with you hon... Had two days where it was Non existent then it came back with a vengeance..I am so sick of being sick all the time and eating to try and subdue it that now I am not eating hardly anything as if mentally I am on strike with my own body. Of course this has led to more dry heave puking.. Blah.

Jen I am sorry. For what it's worth if I had seen you post about the sneak peak test before doing it I would have warned you... I think it's a cheaper alternative to harmony and the others which is why it's so popular... People thinking they can get the same info from a tiny finger poke amount of blood when the big companies take a huge tube of it to make sure they get what they need...last I read on that test people were of the general consensus that sneak peak got lucky with guesses more often than not and they weren't actually pulling fetal blood like the other companies... Still a chance it's right, you do already have boys.. But if you really wanna know for sure before 12-13 weeks or 20 weeks is suggest one of the more expensive tests for piece of mind. I was quoted 695 out of pocket for Verifi here in the US.. But if you have had a certain number of miscarriages or over 35 your insurance will cover the cost.

Think of it this way... If a tube of blood is used and they only find a fetal fraction of 7-10% on average how the hell are they finding any decent trace in a pinger poke of blood?

Oh and MIL's first question was asking if it was an accident..

I swear, I really feel like being pregnant causes people to have diarrhea of the mouth! I mean, who says something like that to their child out loud?! I mean what would she say if she were told the truth that you had been trying for over a year and miscarriages and chemicals one after another?! Ugh!

Sorry for the rant, but when did expecting a baby become something other than a blessing?! No matter how many children or gender, these precious babies you all are carrying are tiny miracles that are a gift, NOT something trivial you can order from a menu on a whim! Sheesh!

Hi everyone. Just catching up. I haven't seen your scan pics yet purple but will asap. Glad everything went ok. Sorry about your in-laws reaction. I have spent most of this week in tears worried about peoples reactions and comments as physically I'm not going to be able to hide much longer. My belly popped up a few days ago. Not baby of course but it's displaced stuff and it's quite obvious. I wouldn't care but it doesn't affect anyone. We take it ask for nothing, nobody helps us, has kids etc but bet they will still have an opinion!

Jen I'm sorry you heard boy from your sneak peek. I did a similar test with my dd3 and it also doesn't have very good reviews. It was however right for me but I felt much like you. Wish I hadn't bothered. I obsessed at stories where make DNA doesn't show in maternal blood etc. So we ended up paying for a gender scan at 15 weeks so it was a whole pointless excercise. You seem very at peace which is great. I was like a loonatic for a few weeks. Honestly I was terrible. I don't know how I will feel if it's girl 4. But it occupies alot of my thoughts xx

Burk and 3. I'm totally fed up too. I've never felt this ill. Just been sobbing to my hubby. I don't feel hungry ever, no food appeals to me. I feel sick if I eat. Sick if I don't. All that's keeping me going is this has to end soon. If it was down to me if take myself to bed for 7 months! To make matters worse it's summer break and my kids are entering their 6th week off school. Could this have fell at a worse time? I just thank my lucky stars I'm not at work as quite truthfully if have had to quit.

Hope everyone is doing well. Time seems to be going so slowly xxxx

baby2016baby, Burakoam, and 3'sacharm... I feel the same way as you ladies. I have to agree, this all day nausea is making me eat all the time and it's definitely not helping the numbers on the scale. I have gained 6 pounds so far and already weight 10 pounds more than what I started with my last two babies. I'm curious to what we are all having since we all pretty much feel the same.

Who has gotten their MaterniT21 results?? Just got ours today and was told it's a healthy girl!!!! Just nervous about the accuracy - I was SO sure it was another boy!! I am afraid to get too excited and then hear at u/s oh it's a boy. I empathize with MILs who don't understand how hurtful word vomit can be! I have one of those!!

[Brandles]

Yay!! Congrats Kell... Did you sway?
