Introducing my family

dad2be

Hi,

I am a dad2be for Nov.3.  First time for both me and my wife.  I am 43 and my wife is 46 and belong to team green (by choice.)  Had big ultrasound and no issues other than the little dude (gender neutral) would not flip for ultrasound tech and doctor for us to get good heart pics.  Since my wife is borderiline gd, they have us going for a fetal echocardiogram.  Since we have had a couple of miscarriages in the past, we welcome extra testing.  My wife also has an anterior placenta so she has not felt (that she knows of) kicks yet but from watching dude on the monitor, he/she is going to be a pro kickboxer.

Welcome to you!  May the coming months go smoothly for your wife and little one (LO). 

I also have an anterior placenta and have consistently felt movement over the last several days - so good things are to come for her!

Welcome and congrats! I have the same due date b/c they moved it to Nov. 3   Sometimes it's hard to recognize the movements if it's your first baby.

Welcome, nice to see a dad on here!  We had the same issue with the baby not cooperating with the u/s of her heart at 18 and 22 weeks---It wasn't til the 26 week u/s that they finally got all the views they needed.  That was the day I had to drink that glucose drink for the g/d test so she was very active and moving around, which helped.

welcome!  I had the same problem with my LO, she is being very uncooperative, but finally today we were able to get pics of her heart, but I again have to go back next week so they can get some profile pics of her...

BTW, Nov 3 is an awesome day lol, its my dads bday and was the day I went into the hosp for my DS's birth which wound up being nov 6!  and scorpios are great!

Good luck with all!
