August 2011!

Hello everyone! I had a really nice time meeting you today! We decided to meet again in Shatin next month. Let's meet in Shatin New Town Plaza Stage 1 Starbucks (I think it's the 2nd floor- the same level as the MTR and next to the UCC coffee shop) on Saturday April 2nd at 2:00. Message me if you'd like more instructions on how to get there or where it is. After a chat and some coffee we can go take a look at the many baby and maternity shops! Hope to see you then!
 
I'll be there on April 2nd, as close to 2pm as I can make it after work. Hope to see you all there x
 
It's a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I 'm so excited I couldn't sleep last night! Yay!!!!
 
How did everyone find their 20 week scan? I had mine today and was really disappointed. I didn't see the whole body profile in the picture, I'm sure with my first I got a picture with the whole body in it. So today I saw each part, but separately. The face, then in another - the arms, then another - the legs. What with me being here my family in the UK wanted to see the pictures but I don't have anything worth showing them. How did everyone find theirs? I'm tempted to go somewhere else to get another one done but don't want to do it if I'm just gonna get the same...
 
Mine was the same but I think it's because the baby is now too big to fit the whole on the screen at the same time. If you want a clearer scan why don't you wait a few weeks then get a 3D one done? They're really clear and I'm sure your family back in the UK would love to see one with the facial features.
 
Thanks, yeah I'm thinking about doing that, he did show some 3d parts today (its face) but I thought it just looked really odd, he said there was an arm or umbilical cord over its face.

I was so looking forward to this scan and just feel so disappointed with it now, also I didn't even see 2 legs, I think I saw 1 leg but it wasn't very clear. I think being back in the UK you actually have a sonographer do the scan and this is all they do all day long so they seemed better than the doctor I saw today, maybe he doesn't do it as often...

I think I will get a 3d scan in a few weeks
 
At least you got pictures! At the public hospital they won't even let you take photos of the printed pictures that they keep. We asked specifically and they said, no, because it's their medical records and they wouldn't let us take pictures of other things in the medical file either. I was like... uh, actually it's MY medical records....
But my husband was very clever... During the scan (about 20 min.) the technition pulled a curtain around me separating my husband and I for some reason, and he was able to stand right on the other side of the curtain and record the entire video with his cell phone! haha so he's got the video anyhow, but still, it's kind of hard to make out what we were looking at most of the time. I did get a really clear shot of the baby's big nose, just like mine! :)
 
Alright, so for anyone who is hoping to come to Shatin Starbucks this Saturday, (see my previous post) I have long dark blonde curly hair and I will wear big red barrettes to be easily spotted! :) P.M. me if you need my phone number. Hope to see some of you there!
 
Hope to see you all there on Saturday.
Congrats on gender news tsubasa!!
Cathryn, welcome to HK! Hope you're settling in ok.
