Because I am a giver...

Re: Because I am a giver...
Actually, I'm going to state my opinion after all. You and others were RUDE. There's a difference between sharing information and being rude and you definitely crossed that line.
Hmmm. Not to mention the training neccessary to know how to use an U/S machine.
PS I LURVE these threads. I spent a good hour reading some old one last night from May 2014 who thought my child should have invitations to her "Surgical Extraction Day Parties" every year. That was high entertainment.

And I'm sure you are a completely objective judge of that.
"Your truth is different from my truth, and we're both right."
TTC since March 2013. BFP 4/13/13, blighted ovum discovered 6/6/13, m/c 6/8/13.
BFP 11/10/13, EDD 7/25/13 - stick little owlet!

Ahh, I love a good "I FEEL SORRY FOR YOUR CHILDREN!!". What about the husbands, can you feel sorry for them too?
Nope. I don't waste time feeling sorry for others' kids, so no worries there.

Legitimate. With the definition in this case of not spurious or unjustified, if you are attempting to be "smart" with your question.
Who are you again?

You're welcome. First one's free.
"I've surprised myself in that I'm even less "hormonal" or emotional than normal when pregnant. I was sure I would be the other way around, as that's what I've always heard! No emotional crying or irrational behavior really...anybody else feel the same?"

IMHO, I also think there's a difference between "blunt responses" meant to be helpful and maybe a bit of a reality check and sheer rudeness. I think all the drama on this thread is what happens when people get called out on their insensitivity. I don't understand wasting one's time being mean to someone b/c you think their opinion is silly or naive.
I would personally pay for an US if I didn't get one until that late, and actually by choosing to go to an OB rather than a midwife here I AM paying for all those scans/early appts completely out of pocket
But anyhow, I'm used to the snark - been around a LONG time - people need to just remember that there are ALL sorts of people on thebump - some nice, some snarky, some not so nice (Just like IRL!!!). You can't expect all sunshine and rainbows to your posts - that's just not how a message board works. You will also get honest opinions and probably some snark. Just take the advice you like and don't stress
Btw, it's 1 thing being excited, and wanting an early u/s. But not everyone NEEDS one. If you know your LMP, and/or when you O'd you don't NEED an early u/s. Typically they check your ovaries, measure your baby and sack and ute, and date how far along you are. It's fun to see your bean. But it isn't necessary. And like pp's have said it drives up medical costs!!!
