wow! well i hope they can determine what sex it is..HUGS..but when they do tell you , id also ask again later when your carrying further for a more definate snswer. as for the doppler, i agree kind of with your husband. i understand your concern, for most mothers have those concerns about miscarriage or pregnancy terminated at any time. i still do! every day! but i have found that there are some releif methods you can do to ease your mind if you need it. or keep busy with other things to not think of negative thoughts..HUGS.. just some suggestions :). im sorry to hear about your mother. but please dont think that might happen to you! everyone is different when it comes to pregnancy. im sure the baby will be fine. :) you have to believe that ..HUGS. just enjoy this time. dont fret so much..HUGS. im thinking about goin to a moms to be group. maybe you have one of those you can join. ive seen they can be fun and you can interact with other moms to be. it may help you ease your mind..BIG HUGS. anyways, these are just suggestions..hope they were alil helpful. if not, i appologize ...HUGS.

I had a miscarriage last year so i know how you feel. In the beginning of my pregnancy (now) I was always thinking about what if it happened again and worrying myself. In my 14th week i started to feel flutter's and all my tests the Doc was doing came back fine. I even did the prenatal screening for defects (that's how worried i was). But honestly as long as your taking your prenatal vitamins, and staying healthy with no stress, I think your fine. I even started taking folic acid, calcium and fish oil vitamins just to be safe. Your just being a worried mama... and i know it can be hard not to think that way, especially considering what happened to your mom. But try not to think about it. The doppler isn't a bad idea, and they run as low as $10.00. I almost got one, but i was at the point (around 14 weeks) i started feeling the baby move atleast once a day. I hope this make's you feel a lil better :o)Hope you have a good day, and my prediction for baby gender is Girl.

Ah, I'm the same way. I had 3 miscarriages before, and even though I'm well past the checkpoint for when those usually happened for me, I still worry. Just try not to think about it too much because really, there's not much you can do if the pregnancy is bound to miscarry- it all happens for a reason. But you know, if you have already heard a nice strong heartbeat by now, AND you are well into your 2nd trimester, chances of a miscarriage drop greatly. The ones that do manage to have miscarriages after this must have had something terribley wrong with the development or just things weren't meant to be with that baby for some reason. But I doubt you will, and that's what I keep telling myself. I wanted to get an at-home-doppler too, but my boyfriend said no also! When I thought about it, I realized that if I had one, going to the doctor to hear the HB just wouldn't be as exciting if we were listening to it every day. Not to mention, that might even just make you stress out more, especially if you have trouble finding it because of the baby not being cooperative or something, lol. And stress isn't good for the baby! Just wait, a few more weeks and you will have the kicks and rolls as a constant reminder that your little one is still there :P

Well hun I know your hubby said you shouldn't get a doppler.. but to be honest I got one and it helped put my mind at ease.. The thing is your not supposed to overuse the doppler, maybe twice a week for 10 minutes at a time, it really helped me until I started to feel baby move at 17 weeks, then I started using it less and less now at 30 weeks I use it every few weeks and everytime I go to the doctor (every two weeks) we hear the heart beat.. So as time goes by you will get less nervous.. but I know how excited you are, and if I have to guess.. I'd guess a boy.. Good luck and keep us updated!!!

Good luck at your appointment tomorrow, I'm excited to hear how it goes! I have my ultrasound on Thursday, it's an early one but my doc also said they will be able to determine the sex. Your bump is so cute! Congrats.

aw i cant wait until you post what it is. i am still guessing its going to be a girl.

Hey I had a dream like that too...thanks to pregnancy and my real life experiences! Well since it a 50/50 chance, I am going to say Girl.... :) Good luck and cant wait to find out!

Ya know, this is all too normal. I have had 2 successful pregnancies and I still worry about this on a daily basis. I want to hear the baby's heart all the time and I can't wait until we can really start feeling the kicks. This will be all the reassurance we will need that all is well. We are almost there g/f. I find out the baby's sex on Oct 12th. I will be 5 months then. They better be able to see by then. I can't remeber a time in my life I have been this patient. Good luck tomorrow. Let us know!
| 22-9-2009 - tomorrow's the big day! |  My mood while writing this blog:EXCITED |
Hey ladies!
Hows everyone doin this week?
Guess what?! Tomorrow I have an appointment and they are going to do an ultrasound! My Dr said they are going to be able to determine the sex!!! I thought it was too early but I guess they are going to try! IM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!! I cant wait for tomorrow to be here. But eventhough I am excited, I am also terrified. I keep having like these awful daydreams that Im going to go in and they are going to tell me that they cant find a heart beat. Im scared. I dont know what I would do if something went wrong. I wanted to get one of those home dopplers but Mike said that he didnt think it was a good idea because I would become obsessed?!?!? Im paranoid because I cant feel any movement inside or anything. I heard the heartbeat like 2 weeks ago and Im still paranoid. Does anyone have any advice on how to calm down or how to reassure myself that everything is fine. I start crying at the thought of something being wrong. I should be totally excited during this time but my nerves are taking over. I just want to know that everything is ok. My mother had a miscarriage right around this time (15 weeks) and she did not even know!!! There was no bleeding, no cramping. She even continued to get morning sickness. One day she went in for her check up and they told her that the baby had been dead for weeks. HOW AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! Im really freaking myself out guys. Help!!!!!!
Just for fun.... what is your guess for the sex of my baby????
