2nd Trimester

big ultrasound tomorrow - I'm so anxious!

I accidentally posted this on 1st tri - oops.

I don't know how I'm going to sleep tonight! I'm so anxious and nervous. I hope LO is healthy and everything is OK! My stomach is in knots. I can't wait to see him/her again!

I also can't wait to find out the gender! My DH, my whole family, and most of our friends think it's a girl. I think it's a boy. It's going to be a shock for whoever is wrong!

  • Good luck! Mine is Tuesday, so I totally understand being nervous and anxious!
  • I hope it goes amazingly!  I know I keep thinking about it and mine is still 9 days away.

  • Not to put you down but don't get your hopes up about finding out the gender. I was supposed to find out too and DH and my mom came and the tech wouldn't tell us. I hope you find out though. I ended up having to pay for a 3d/4d ultrasound at 23 weeks to find out the baby's gender. Good luck!

    Really? I've never heard of the tech just not telling someone. I've heard that they may not get a good look, but just not telling you? Why not? That sucks!

    She said it was the policy if you are not at least 20 weeks plus. She didn't even go in that area and look. She was very rude and told me she was frustrated that I was there at 18 weeks. She didn't even put it in her report so my OB could tell me. So frustrating!!

  • I have mine tomorrow also! Can't wait, I hope the baby cooperates! =)

    ?

    Good luck!

  • Good luck how exciting!!

  • I totally understand your anxiety.  I had a complete meltdown the night before our big u/s... complete.  I was terrified of finding out that the baby was a boy, and I don't know anything about boys.  I ended up sobbing on the phone with my mom for two hours, I was so scared.  

    Well, as my siggy shows, we definitely have a boy, and I'm getting so excited about him!  I stopped being so tense and am relishing in the idea that I get to raise a sweet southern gentleman, and a genuinely good man.  

    It still hurts to look at little girl clothes, though... not gonna lie.

     Good luck with your u/s!  It's so magical and wonderful.  Even if you don't find out the sex, seeing all of the body parts and everything is amazing.  DH started crying and took a deep sigh of relief when the doc said that Charlie looked perfect... he said that he didn't know how worried he was until he knew he didn't have to be worried!

    That is so frustrating! I would have been so mad! I know they will tell us (if they get a good look) b/c they told me when I made the appointment that it's fine b/c I'm over 18 weeks. I guess my place wants you to be atleast 18 weeks.

    Cool! I hope the little one cooperates! Don't have anything with a lot of sugar, lol.

  • That is exactly how I felt!  It is so exciting, but you are really nervous at the same time- hoping & praying all is good!  As everyone always says, odds are in your favor that all will be okay so try not to be too nervous! 

    For some reason I was 99% sure LO was a boy, but at the big US the tech definitely saw the 3 lines, so I was wrong!  I was quite shocked, you never know!  Try to go to bed and somehow get to sleep... that will make tomorrow be here much sooner!

  • good luck sleeping tonight. lol. i couldn't sleep a wink the night before mine i was so anxious. 
  • We have ours tomorrow too.  I am definitely anxious about the making sure everything with LO is ok part. Thankfully I don't have to worry about LO cooperating since we are Team Green to the end. A few times this weekend I did get a little anxious because I am afraid someone will slip and tell us.
