I have to wait until 3/29. And we are undecided team green, so I will probably tell the tech not to tell us but write it.down in case we change our minds at some point.
This is us at the moment too- undecided team green! MH always said he didn't want to know but would go with whatever I decided and I always wanted to know. But I started to lean towards team green recently.... 😀 Am thinking to ask them to stick it on a note in am envie so in case I change my mind... Funnily enough just 2-3 weeks ago I was contemplating doing an elective U/S to find out haha. Glad we waited 😀
Yeah MH really wants to know. I don't care. Call me crazy, but as long as it's healthy I am happy. But if H remains set on knowing perhaps I will get a gender reveal cake for his birthday.

This so funny - I've been going back and forth on wanting to know. st first, I wanted to know when we got the genetic screen results but DH wanted to wait til the a/s. Then about two weeks ago I thought, how cool to NOT know! Then last week I was like I HAVE TO KNOWWW! And now I'm ? About it. And agreed, elliecat17 - we just want a healthy baby. Also though, DH says he won't discuss names til we know the sex, because "what's the point in arguing over two sets of names??"
I had an early anatomy scan for the twins 2 weeks ago. At 16 weeks they both measured 6 ounces so good size babies! Everything looked good and that we were carrying a boy and girl. We'll have another scan at 20 weeks to follow up.
This is such a good example of the skull theory!! One of those gender predicting theory's but my friend swears by it and only has been wrong maybe once or twice!!
It's a gender predicting method that is based off the shape of the babies skull. Boy have a rounder forehead and girls have more of a "flat" forehead. Some are harder to see that others but if you look at those twins the one twin has a completely round forehead and the other has a flatter one!
Have my scan tomorrow. I am much more nervous than I thought I would be. I keep waiting for something to go wrong (damn PGAL brain). We are hoping to find out if it's a boy or a girl, but I am not sure I want to know! We didn't find out with our three and I feel like we are cheating by finding out 😬.
Had our scan and everything with the baby looks great! Baby #4 is a BOY! I am so excited. I would have been happy either way, but I kinda wanted another boy. I do feel like we cheated and I almost don't believe it, but he wasn't really shy so I am pretty confident that the tech was right.
Also, I have to go back next week because my cervix was borderline short and they want to check t again. I am more annoyed than anything else because the office is 45 minutes away and I will have to get a babysitter. I have my regular OB appointment tomorrow and I am kind of hoping he just says that he can just check it in his office which is 1/4 mile from my house.

I had mine yesterday! Baby was freaking me out because I haven't felt her move yet (19 weeks with my 3rd pregnancy). But she was all good! And now today I started feeling the kicks lol. I think they said she was 8 oz and 22%ile in size. Predicted that she would be 7 lbs at birth...

Me, I'm still undecided! Obviously all I want is a healthy baby, but that aside I've been team green for a full 2 weeks LOL *chuckles* but now that our A/S is coming up for real tomorrow I'm like... maybe I do want to know? There's something to say for both! Didn't help that I was out at the mall with my mum yesterday and saw some really cute baby stuff but most is really girly or boylike and there's very little neutral stuff for some reason.. I have yet to buy anything for baby but would like to start buying something. So out of a practical standpoint *g* knowing is better haha. Also, knowing may help me feel more attached? Am still struggling with feeling so distanced from things and like this isn't really happening still, even though it's impossible to ignore my evergrowing belly now.
I think your idea for a gender reveal cake for YHs birthday is so sweet:)

This is me! I keep going back and forth. Was all cool with team green for 2 weeks and now I'm like "What is it, I wanne know!!" I just can't decide. So I think I may ask the tech to write it down and stick it in an envie, then I won't have to make up my mind before 2pm tomorrow afternoon LOL. Did manage to change MHs mind on the name thing. He didn't want to discuss names either until we knew, ánd preferred Team Green so I was all like that's not gonne work! So if we stick to team green (atm I highly doubt that but who knows what tomorrow brings LOL) we will come up with a set of names for both a girl as a boy.
At mine I went with full bladder and she said I can empty it before the scan. I believe the full bladder are for the earlier ultrasounds since the uterus is still in the pelvic cavity completely.
They have never had me go in on a full bladder and always gotten what they needed without a problem.
We were team green the first three times. If you can make it past the anatomy scan it is much easier to finish out not knowing. I enjoyed being team green the other times, but I do think it made it a little more difficult to bond with my youngest. I would have been happy to do it again, but I really just wanted to get rid of stuff!

My anatomy scan went well. So relieved. Baby boy looks good and is measuring 9 oz at 18w3 days (53rd percentile). He was so cute!!!
Regarding the bladder question. Mine was accidentally full because I was super nervous and chugging water. The tech told me she could get a better photo of my cervix that way, but then sent me to the restroom before the rest of the exam. It's amazing how good the ultrasound equipment is nowadays-- we could see his tiny bones, fingers, and chambers of the heart. We had an awesome tech, and she pointed everything out as she went along.
