Grace, Faith, Hope, Joy, etc.

I am not a quaker, but have always thought them to be really nice. Please do not lumber it with a ridiculously silly name like "Sky" or "Tracey".

Obviously I have worked entirely to the assumption that it is going to be a girl. No idea why.
We have two boys now so my wife is wanting a girl.

"she" wont be called Sky or Tracey (no offence if anyone shares these names)

I wouldnt mind another boy and I like the name Caleb.
I know it is from that show with the star of Midnight Caller in but to be honest this is where I got it from.

Just to keep you all up to date....

We have had a little bit of bleeding but we have had a scan and all is well.

She is 8w "gone" and we saw the heartbeat today. The baby is 14mm long.

Thank you all for your kind words.

This is what our baby looks like...

Have you told anyone else yet ?

Do you know if it is a boy or a girl? And, again, names?

The close family and friends now know cos of the problems that we have been having - So we were forced into telling people really (cos we both had time off work as well so our employers have had to know)

My wife didnt want to tell anyone till abt 12w.

She likes Leah for a girl. I could go along with that.
As far as a boy - weve not thought.

We dont know the sex yet. But we should find out on the 20w scan. (its sex is now dertermined though)

Nah - No cravings as yet.

Congrats, Joe.

My friend's wife has just given birth and the couple are absolutely over the moon.

She didn't show until well into the third trimester. Wishing you and your good lady all the best.

Thank you.

We had the mid wife round to visit yesterday and we heard the heartbeat for the first time. (My two boys heard it too).
The mid wife told us that according to the hosps dates she should have fallen pregnant before she ovulated - which is not possible. (which also means that we found out she was pregnant when she was 3 wks into her cycle - but we would not have done a test at this point anyway)

We are up at the hosp on 13.05.04 for the 20(ish) week scan when we will have a better idea. We will also know what sex it will be.

Well thats about all the info I have at the moment.

This is what it is like now.....

So the first date of 16.09.04 may be closer to 01.09.04
