yea i know i ovulated late so im not really worried. i ovulated on day 18 or 19 because it was my first period since i had gone off birth control in january. yes it will be my first :) me and hubby want a boy. but we both have very strong feelings about it being a girl.i guess we'll find out in 8 weeks at our 20 weeks scan! i hate waiting! lol ive been drinking lots of water but i hope i wont be so full during the scan because i know they have to put a lot of pressure on my belly. should i fill up my bladder and then go to the bathroom right before so i dont have too much in there? i just want it to go well!

My advice is to not worry if you're not at 12 weeks fetal age. I thought I was 6 weeks when I went in for my U/S and fetal age showed 5 weeks. I apparently ovulated on CD 23 (crazy!!) but I was worried about there being something wrong forever!! Other than that...enjoy the experience! Is this your first??

my advice is not to overdo the water, drink enough so your bladder is full but so full that it is about to explode lol. i made that mistake and i swear it was worse than being in labor, it even ruined the scan a little bit cause i was concentrating more on not peeing on myself than looking at the monitor. besides from that i have no other advice besides enjoy it, one of the most amazing things ever.
