ajm200 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I'm not particularly superstitous but it seems Friday the 13th was lucky for me. I won 50 quid on the premium bonds and found out at my scan that it's 95% certain that I'm having the baby girl that I've been longing for.. Was Friday 13th kind to you?

Lesley Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 It was just another day to me....... ...but lovely to hear that you had a good day ......you'll be spending £50 on pink baby clothes then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Good news about the scan BUT You won that £50 at the beginning of the month - you can check online to see if you are a winner! Arriving on Friday 13th was the SNAIL MAIL. My cheque for this month arrived 2 days earlier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Sounds like you had a lucky day. Great to have something to smile about . So what are you going to do with that £50? Spoil yourself a bit? Fabulous news about the scan, so lovely to be expecting a little girl. Daughters are wonderful, I thoroughly recommend them....expensive though I had a good Friday 13th too . Nothing as lucky as winning anything, but had a lovely lunch with MIL (it was her birthday), long phone conversation with Sis (her birthday too) and a bit of a leaving party thing in the evening.

Egluntyne Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Lovely! My son was born on a Friday 13th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 my youngest son was born on the 13th, but not of a friday he's most dissapointed about this. I used to be a tad superstitious about the 13th and whilst carrying him, I was told he was BIG and too big for me really and he was likely to be born early (if not they would help ) but I said well as long as he doesn't come on the 13th!.. she said.. Oh there's not much chance.. that would be 3 weeks early. Well... he was born on the 13th 3 weeks early weiging 8lb 15 ozs I was glad he wasn't full term.. We are not superstitious about the 14th any more and class it as one of our special dates in the calendar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Oooooh, such lovely news about the scan - when we had our scan with Squidger, he had the cord bteween his legs, so it was a surprise when he was born! Friday 13th holds nothing but luck for me -Owen was a Friday 13th baby, after a VERY long labour, so I was delighted when he appeared!

Yorkshire Pudding Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 That's such nice news! DS1 wouldn't let us see whether he was a Stan or a Susie when he was scanned - he kept twisting away so the radiographer couldn't get a clear view of his nether regions. DS2 on the other hand, was obviously a boy as soon as the picture hit the screen. He's still the exhibitionist of the family! My gorgeous niece arrived on a Friday 13th too.
