A/S results

[emilyzemily]

So I had a look at the topics, stickies and discussions but couldn't see that we have an A/S results topic yet! Please correct me if we have, i'm still getting used to this whole tapatalk!

Anywho, if we haven't, can this be it? I really just want to be a giant AW because I have mine in an hour! Praying everything is all good with LO and we'll find out the sex if he/she lets us. I know there were quite a few others on TB who also have theirs today and some more coming up in late Jan/early Feb so good luck to everyone! FX i'll soon have a cute little picture

[baileybaileybne]

How did it go? All good I hope?

[emilyzemily]

Everything was all good! we're having a baby girl! Soo happy

[Widget123]

I am so nervous for mine this afternoon. I am not really nervous about the baby being healthy, although of course that is the most important thing, I am more nervous about DH. DH keeps saying that if the sex is different than what he wants (a boy) he is going to storm out of the room with DD mid-scan. I am fairly confident that he is joking but I know he will be so disappointed if it is another girl.

Oh no i'm sorry to hear this!! Hopefully no matter what it is he'll fall in love straight away. That's pretty bad if he storms out mid scan!

Congrats emilyzemily!

Mine is Monday. So excited to see our kiddo!

Good luck! I hope he's just joking.

[nchauhan]

Congrats!! Mine isn't until February 5; we can't wait to see him again and make sure everything looks good

[veggiemo]

Mine was Wednesday! Tech had a hard time getting a profile because baby kept nuzzling its face into the placenta. But we got one![

[veggiemo]

And congratulations on your baby girl emilyzemily!! How exciting!

Edit: I thought it was reported that @ still tags people? Guess it does, didn't show up on mobile as a tag.

[tinavonsparkle]

Congratulations! I just got back from mine too - I was so nervous but there was no need, it all looks perfect. I'm so happy! (Team green so we still don't know the sex) Also found out my placenta is posterior (and not anterior like I thought after having a doppler with a midwife a few weeks ago) and it turns out the feelings I've been passing off as gas or hunger pangs are actually the baby!

Congrats emilyzemily!

I'm sure he won't! While it may be a bit disappointing, I bet he'll quickly get super excited about it if it's another girl. My DH is kind of the same way - he's been so convinced for so long that baby is a boy that I'm a little nervous he won't be happy if it's a girl (although I'll be happy even for both of us and then some). But he's been trying to notice cute dads & daughters lately and get himself in the mindset that it might very well be a girl. One more week....the suspense is killing me! Good luck today!

[hb4]

I had mine on Wednesday too. All results good and we are having a little boy!! Annoyingly I have a low lying anterior placenta so praying it moves up by 36 weeks.

[neongreen]

Yay for girls, emilyzemily!

I have mine today as well, as well as a fetal echocardiogram (which my MFM recommends for all twins just to be on the safe side), so I'll be spending plenty of time looking at my babies today. I had a quick growth scan a couple weeks ago (where we found out they're both girls), but today's the full A/S. I'm hoping everything continues to look good, and I also won't mind the confirmation that they both still appear to be girls. DH took off from work last time for the scan since we'd be finding out the sex that day, so my mom's coming with me today.

[schnurette]

I had mine on Jan 16 - they can't tell us anything but we got to see baby and the tech gave us several chances to view the "money shot" to make our own call as to sex (she wasn't allowed to confirm) so we know it's a boy! (If not, our new baby girl looks like she has a weiner.)

I have to go back in for another on the 28 - the woman from the lab that called said there is nothing to worry about but they need more shots. So I am freaking out anyway but trying to relax and just enjoy another afternoon off work and getting to see baby again.

OH and I have a doctors appointment on the 27th (which had been to get the results of my a/s...although that seems uncertain now) but hopefully my doc will at least be able to confirm the sex and let me know the a/s follow up the next day is just routine and nothing to freak over.

I just got back from mine- we're having a girl!

I've been so convinced we were having a boy, and now I'm just terrified. absolutely terrified. I can't raise a little me? I'm excited, and I'm so in love with her already-don't get me wrong, but holy shit. I cannot stop thinking "I hope she takes after her dad".

Has anyone else been this scared for one sex or the other? I know I can't be alone here. The first thing that went through my head when the ultrasound tech told us it was a girl was: "Oh my god, she's going to be a teenager and hate me one day"...

This is exactly how I reacted. I've been so convinced we're having a boy. I was a hormonal temper tantrum cow when I was a teenager but I was a lot better behaved than my SO, so god knows what this LO will put us through haha. It took me all of about 5 minutes if that to get over it and then I cried a lot because I was so happy at having a healthy girl. It's definitely an emotional rollercoaster

So, we're having a girl and my whole pregnancy my DH has been saying it's a girl. I think DH intentionally said this so that he could already be in love with the idea of a girl before we found out (because I KNOW he would have loved a boy). Or he really did think she was a girl the whole time! But I knew he'd love either sex, thank goodness. With each child he is getting attached to the baby sooner then the last, and it melts my heart. 

Hopefully your DH is totally joking.

[blasto!]

Congrats emilyzemily! Glad to hear so many people's scans are going well. Widget123 I hope yours goes well and that YH is supportive and excited!

I actually was a little relieved that we're having a girl because I didn't want to make the circumcision decision again. That stressed me out so much with DS. I'm sure if we have another boy sometime in the future we would just make the same decision, but I'm relieved that I don't have to think about it.

So, I'm guessing you hated your mom as a teenager and that's why you're scared your daughter will hate you one day? Keep in mind you're kids are their own people. They won't necessarily be a mini-you. My sisters and I never hated our mom. I guess she never gave us a reason. I was a brat and didn't treat her nice, but certainly never hated her.

I had this same reaction!! I would have bet money on the fact that it was a boy I was THAT sure. But nope. I was worried about how I would feel if it was a girl, but as soon as the tech said 'girl' I started crying and thought to myself 'well, of course she's a girl!! How could it not be?'It just felt so right - almost like a missing piece of a puzzle had been put in to place. In full disclosure though, I did tell DH not to let me break her... Baby suddenly seemed far more fragile to me which I know is all in my mind, and I've gotten over it. But I laugh at myself when I think of that gut reaction.

Congrats to everyone!!!!!

Same here!

For some reason we always thought we would have boys (there are no girls on DH's side of the family), so finding out we were having a girl was a pleasant surprise. We are really excited to have a daughter, but DH and I were both TERRIBLE as teens, so we're a little scared for what's to come!

I actually reacted very much like this when we found out we are having a boy. I am a little less scared now and have always loved him but the thought of a boy just scared the crap out of me. I'm pretty much a girly girl so yes. You are not alone dear.

I had a similar reaction when our Harmony screen told us our jujube is a boy. My gut had me convinced it was a girl. I was a little freaked at first because girl things are just more familiar, but once the reality kicks in (and baby really kicks you hehe), the googly-eyed love sets in and it doesn't matter. All that matters is learning all about this little human! Besides, never know what to expect - a son could grow up loving pink and ponies, and a daughter might be completely obsessed with dump trucks and camo green. That is the best part of all this, I think, getting to know the little personality of your bub!

[courtyowl27]

We had our scan last Friday and everything was terrfic. And we managed to stay team Green! I was so happy leaving the exam room. There is so much that can go wrong at it was amazing to see the baber in there with everything where it's supposed to be. Tech mentioned and Dr's office called to confirm that we need to do another scan in a few weeks due to the baby's position. We saw the heart and all 4 chambers, just couldn't get the views they needed. Assured us all was well, it's jst for continuity. I know my ob is very thorough and I'm sure there is something about liability too. I'm just focusing on the fact we get to see Baby A again.

[gingerbabe]

fatmilkisdelish I think having kids in general is a little terrifying. You never know what you are actually getting yourself into until you're already in it!! I wonder how my kids are going to be as they get older all the time! And as much as I worry they will end up mischievous like their daddy, or my DDs will end up like my bitch of a SIL (my DD#1 looks identical to my SIL) I just have to take it one step at a time! Right now they are my precious innocent babies and that's all that matters!

[wegrowsheep]

I was so relieved at my appt this week to hear the a/s was good. DD had cysts in her brain at her a/s, so it's been on my mind.
We have DD and DS, and I actually crying over the idea of having one more of either. For completely different reasons. Having another girl had me thinking I wouldn't get such special girl time with DD#1, and the thought of having another boy made me cry because I'm already so tired with DS at home right now. Obviously, these thoughts are the work of pregnancy hormones, and much to the delight of DH, baby #3 is a boy (what is with man's desire to further the family name??). I told him he's taking him to the circumcision appt.

[noeliav]

The A/S visit is my favorite OB/MW visit of the entire pregnancy. Congrats to all the mamas and their babies

[erbear]

I have five more days! I can't wait!

***Quote Fail***

This is exactly why I'm nervous about finding out that the baby is a boy!

Plus, MH is really hoping for a girl. We talk about it all the time, and I know he'll be excited no matter what, but picturing him with a tiny baby girl makes me swoon. Either way, I'll get to find out next Friday! I'm trying not to stress too much until then, and it's helping that LO decide to start doing cartwheels two days ago.
