So the title says it all really! I will be 16+4 on Thursday and am paying for a private gender scan rather than waiting for my Nhs anomaly scan. It is only DH and I that know. My mum is babysitting and thinks we are going out for dinner for valentines day!

Scan is not until 7.30pm so have the whole day to worry about it. Really think I will hear boy number 3 as feel like we have had too much good luck on this thread already!

At least this way it gives me 4 weeks to come to terms with it before my big scan!

Not sure how I am going to make it through the week! X

I think if I look at my scan pictures one more time, I am going to explode!!!

I am really torn what I will hear. Would be SO happy to hear girl but really think it is another boy.

Only another 4 days and I will know one way or the other. - At least I can out down the nub pics!

Will be thinking of you on Tuesday! X

Thanks girls. It is not until 7.30pm UK time then we are going out for dinner so could be a while until I update. I am pretty much resigned I will hear boy and anything else will be a nice surprise.

Not sure i will sleep very well tonight and pray the tech is a good one and gets it right! X

Sorry for the delay..... It is another boy for us. I had hope from my nub shot but there was no mistaking the turtle I saw. This is my last baby so am really sad as didn't want to live in a house full of men but it seems that is my destiny.

Thank you for all your support. I know you understand.

I'm surprised, really thought nub looked girl. Goes to show that nub gauging can't be relied upon too much. Congratulations on your third boy! I can imagine the sadness you feel for the loss of a girl, but you are growing a healthy little boy so you focus on him now. Did you sway then?

Congratulations on your gorgeous bundle of blue. Sorry you didn't hear pink. I know how hard it is to hear boy for a third time but 3 boys are awesome. Mine are really, really close and DS3 is always telling me he loves me. I couldn't imagine having a girl in his place now. Sending big hugs xxx

Mommyof3boys - just noticed your ticker (that you're passed 20 weeks)! Are you finding out or waiting till birth?

I go in on Monday for my scan. I really want to stay team green. We have been for all of my previous pregnancies but lately I have been considering finding out. I'm really not sure what we will do. DH wants to know but I don't want to be sad about it if it is a boy. I thought about having them write it down and looking at it in May.

So sorry you didn't hear pink maybeoneday, thinking of you and yes, I've been there. Was really hurt and upset for about 2 weeks when I found out DS3 was a boy, but then I came to terms with it and he is perfect.

Jadis

Sorry you didn't hear pink, but he'll be just perfect for you in the end. He'll be wonderful. Be kind to yourself and let yourself feel whatever you need to right now, you'll be ok.

I kind of wish I hadn't found out as it is much harder to be sad when you have a baby to cuddle. I have to say I thought I would be ok with it being another boy but I am really not! I thought it was the not knowing that was killing me, but this is much worse!

I think you have to be honest with yourself on how you will take it if is another boy and when you would rather find that out. Xx

I'm so sorry it's hard for you. I think I would have been exactly the same if I'd have heard boy. Like some people have said at least you have time to bond with your new little man. I keep thinking I should have found out as I'm just deluding myself there is still a chance. There are no easy answers. I wish you all the best and hope you feel better about everything soon.
