Kt Emr: Pregnancy number 4

The So on the 8th June I did a pregnancy test which showed up positive. Shocked was an understatement as I was on the pill, I hadn't missed any and wasn't sick so was very confused.

The dad wasn't best pleased but I have bought up 3 children without the help of their dads, I don't believe in abortions and so for me my mind was made up.

About 15 pregnancy tests later I stopped doing them

I went for an early scan as I didn't know 100% when my last period was.

Little blob was very small so they asked my to come back a week later I was 7 weeks.

This scan photo shows a little arm. 8+ 3

It all started to sink in seeing little bubba on the screen. I told my 3 from the beginning as they was going to hear me talking to family I did something a bit special.

They was extremely excited. They all have said they would like a brother!

I paid for a private scan at 10+4

The photos were great but the actual scan was awful. The sonographer was so rude to my family and me. I complained to the company and they offered me to have a re scan.

This scan was amazing so much more time looking at baby :) also made my due date Valentine's Day!! Was 11+6

I then had my 12 week scan and the lady was lovely she took so much time to explain to Rylie where everything was.

Going to suck thumb in both the above photos.

When we was in the hospital Rylie said mum if you turn the photo upside down it looks like a dog!! I haven't laughed so much in ages!

I have listened to the babies heartbeat since 8+4 on my mas baby Doppler! If you can buy this make I highly recommend, although they don't actually make them anymore. It's actually so reassuring to hear it. I do it proberbly twice a week.

I have also been keeping a track of my growing bump

Looking forward to Friday I have my gender scan. Although I'm not finding out my sister is. She is then going to decorate my front room in pink or blue and I'm going to find out like that.

So Friday did not pan out well at all. I didn't find out and I was totally gutted. Baby's head was measuring 15+3 so they refused to even look.

We did try to get my money back so I could go elsewhere as normal protocol would have been to measure babies head leg and stomach and combine them 3 measurements.

Anyway I re booked scan for Tuesday and went with my sister Emma daughter Ellie best friend Jodie and her daughter Beth.

It was amazing the best scan I have ever had she showed us babies feet, shoulder bone, stomach, bladder and much more.
