Big news!

As Caryll pointed out I hadn't had chance to post on here!

I know a few of you know but for those who don't im 19 weeks pregnant due on the 19th of June times flying now

Also sorry Harvey but Harvey was 4 on the 20th! Happy belated birthday little lump

Congratulations to you and congratulations to Harvey.

I have a friend that is also due around that time

Congratulations - that's my wedding anniversary, so a special date for me.

Thanks can't wait now

Congratulations and happy belated birthday!

Congrats babe! What wonderful news!!

& belated happy birthday to Harvey.

When do you find out if it's a boy/girl? My friend is going on Monday and we're both praying for a girl.
Do you want to know before?

I go Friday to find out and yes want to find out I hate surprises so wouldn't want to wait but we aren't telling anyone what it is

About time woman!! I'm still sticking to my story that i knew before anyone else.

Haha sorry Hayley a lot knew before you lol

If it's your baby, it'll be adorable, regardless of gender!

Looking at the 12 week scan they are the split of Martin feature wise so I think they will take after dad

Aww!

no no i knew before anyone, i had a womanly feeling for ages

Ella, will you have a home birth or hospital?

Both mine were hospital, but I wished I had been at home. In fact Eleanor was born at around 6am, and I went home directly after the pediatrician had checked her over at about 10am!

I've chosen a home birth in the water - I know nothing is guaranteed but it's down in my birth plan as home birth, it's what I've always wanted

Anyway had the 20 week scan today and the little monkey would not cooperate what so ever and spent the whole time head butting my bladder, so they couldn't get the head and face checked but did everything else and it's all perfect, but back in 2 weeks to see if they will behave, and..... We now know what we are having

Congratulations on your boy/girl!

Brilliant!

Do you use your own bath, or do you need to get a portable one in?

You rent a birthing pool similar to the hospital ones

Oh, right.

It sounds a really relaxed way of doing it.

Hoping so

It sounds a lot more natural than a hospital environment, that's for sure!

It's also now highly recommended by midwives too!

I have to admit, I've heard a lot of good things about it!

Supposed to have less complications for mum and baby so that's a bonus!
