Part 4: Due January, February & March 2019

[Kelbear]

Ladies I'm just wondering - are your babies active? I started feeling movement about a week ago and one, if not both, of my little ones is super active. My three sons were all quite active on the inside - and I felt movement around this time with #2 & #3, possibly slightly earlier even. It just has me thinking I must surely be having twin boys. Obviously once they are both ok that's the main thing but I can't help but think both are boys. I got a gut feeling at the scan that at least one was a boy. I was hoping and hoping the second one would be a girl but the more active they get the more they remind me of my three boys.
Has anyone had active siblings that ended up being opposite genders? Grasping at straws here I think. I probably won't find out their gender tomorrow. It's not usually offered til after at least 18 weeks.

Both my boys were active but this little lady beats them! She is non stop kicking and rolling. She's small but I feel her so much more than I did her brothers so I don't think movement indicates gender. Also with two in there they must have less room and are probably already interacting with each other and competing for space. Try not to stress about gender but I know that's not easy, it's all I thought about til I found out. Fingers crossed you have at least one little girl in there.

Thanks Kelbear xxx
I would have just about managed to stay team green if there was just the one in there but I think I need to prep myself physically, mentally and emotionally if there's TWO more little men joining my household lol! I doubt I'll find out or even get a hint tomorrow but I'll be hoping either way!

Hi Hopper I'm crossing everything that you hear pink!
I haven't had a girl but my mum says all the time that I was the most active out of her 5 pregnancies so I'm sure girls can be just as active. Don't lose hope xx

Beautiful Kelbear!! Did they say how the placenta looks now?

Placental shelf still there but not as obvious as previous scans. Looks like it's still working ok for now but baby still only just growing enought to stay above 10 % where they get really worried so they want scans every 2 weeks now to monitor a bit more closely. Just want her to keep growing a bit longer, at least til 35 weeks then she should be big enough to be ok.

Hopper I can tell you that this girl is beating me from the inside. I can already see the kicks and punches through my stomach which didn't happen till way later with the boys.

So I mentioned last week being in alot of pain and nausea. It hasn't subsided at all and today at my dr appointment I weighed under pregnancy weight. I knew it though. I could see in face and legs that I've lost weight and DH freaked out helping me out the bath last night when he saw my back.
I'm being sent to a specialist but they cant see me till next week Thursday and very unlikely much will be able to be done since I cant have an xray or anything invasive. Just praying so hard that the pain becomes more manageable and I can keep food down cuz I'm so worried about it affecting the baby. Never mind that I actually can't care for my other two kids. Like at all. Thank God for my parents. Gonna have to get them the best thank you present when this is all over!

Crossing my fingers for some girly pictures today from you hopper! And your DS1 TOTALLY sounds like my DD -- my DD is definitely still the most active, busy and non-sleeping kid I know haha. I think movement is more personality than anything My husband supposedly rarley moved in utero and as a baby -- and even though he's a lifelong athlete, he is totally a guy that would lay there all day if he could. My nephew was born right around when my DD was and was my SIL's 5th kid, and she was worried because she seriously never felt that kid move haha.

simkan, I'm so worried for you. You had the weird bowel mass too, right? That amount of weight loss this far in pregnancy is so scary. I am really, really hoping they find out what's happening soon so you can thrive again <3




Ladies, I'm back at it with some GD this morning. I had a weird dream last night -- I dreamt I didn't remember labor (my weird old anxiety dream from before DD and early in this pregnancy) and that it was a girl, but that somehow the girl was a month old and I was "due any day now with the boy" and the majority of the dream was still super pregnant. When I first woke up I was like, 'ah man, it's a girl ' but also realized I had JUST been going through newborn clothes before bed and had just felt I shouldn't put the very girly ones in a drawer yet but now i'm sure it was just my wishful thinking. I honestly hadn't said much about gender lately because I'm still pretty good about not thinking about it, and because I honestly have had a lot of boy dreams and was comforted... now here I am again. Sigh.

What is the state of everyone else's dreams??

Hopper, can't wait to hear about those sweet babies! Hoping you get your pink!

Simkan, that's horrible! I am so sorry you are going through such a rough patch. I'm hoping things really start looking up for you and that your health remains good!

TP, yes! I had a disappointing gender dream just the other day. It was so vivid I woke up angry. I had a dream about this exact image and that the sonographer came back and said OOPS! I think it's a girl. But I was like 39 weeks along and got more upset that he wasn't a boy. My son is so excited and sings and talks to him all the time. I've adjusted okayish to the GD, but it rears its ugly head from time to time

simkan that sounds just horrible. God love you! I really hope things get better for you soon. It's so worrying when you should be enjoying this time.

Oh TP and Eighme!!! I get you guys on the GD dreams. It's cause we have absolutely zero control over what our subconscious is thinking, even when we are managing the GD well enough on a day to day basis! Stupid GD! It sucks!! I haven't had ANY gender dreams for weeks. Had two that had a girl in them and one that had a boy but never seen a baby in any of them so it's just mostly been feelings and they felt so real upon waking. Sucky!

Here's our twins I am in pure love! Both measuring within days of my EDD. One slightly smaller than the other but still perfect. In with my OB in 2 weeks and my anomaly scan in 6 weeks. They wouldn't tell us the genders this time. They definitely will at the anomaly. DH is uncanny at reading scans. He was able to spot an anterior low lying placenta before she even said it and he knew it belonged to Baby B before she said it too. He thinks Baby B is a girl but I told him not to be getting our hopes up! I so hope he's right. She did femur measurements and despite being potty shots I couldn't make out any boy parts, despite claiming to be a pro!! I saw three lines between one of their legs when she paused to do the femur measurement but I dunno what I'd be seeing at this gestation to see girl parts lol! I'm 16+4 give or take a few days!
Excited either way tho and really Excited to find out but dunno how I'll wait 6 weeks haha!!
