Because you have SO many shots that are so consistent, I think it is unlikely you will hear anything OTHER than girl ... it's when there's just one photo that I think nubs can end up looking like something other than what they are. I think you're really in good shape to hear "girl" so I would say ... FIND OUT Think of how happy you'll be the rest of your pregnancy ... and oh ... the shopping you'll get to do ...
I'm trying to get excited about shopping for another girl but right now it's still hard for me. I so badly want to buy boy's clothes for once, which I'm sure all of you are like what?!?! why?!?! Lol. But I do. I might just have to go get an entire boys layette and donate it to the local pregnancy center so that I can bless a woman who really needs it. In a weird way I think that could help me heal some more.

Princess, HUGS. It is OK to be a bit down. Be gracious with yourself. Yes you had a tragic loss that reminded you how precious a baby is (I read your blog with tears pouring down; thank you for sharing) but this is a different pregnancy; it's OK to have hopes for it too. As much as we would like to, we can't control our emotions and our desires for a gender. And don't feel bad about wanting that and sharing when you're down; we're all here bc we wanted a DG, not because we DON'T love the DC we already have.
Remember too that pregnancy hormones are real and they are buggers!

Awww...thanks, Begonia. I'm glad you had a better day today. You're going to raise those girls to be strong, beautiful women who will make you proud. Every day will get better, and although I definitely don't want you to disappear on us, I'm told GD gets a lot better when you stop visiting these sorts of boards where we all obsess over gender constantly. Lots of women out there are completely happy raising one gender families and have never heard of GD. If fate decides to give me boy #4, I'm going to do my best to move on and put everything into raising them as sensitive, caring boys who enjoy spending time with their Mom .

Purplefairy when is your scan? FWIW the FMU wasn't right for me ... I was consistently shockingly high, like an 8, and am having a girl. Who knows?!?! FX you get your DD!
Man, Mocha that's another one that was wrong for me, the heartrate. Really all the OWT (including Ramzi theory) pointed to boy this time for me and I hate to say it but that's part of the reason I felt SUCH a let down, KWIM? I felt like with the sway, and the OWT ... for SURE I'd hear boy. I do hope the heartbeat is an accurate predictor for you DM!!!
Oh my gosh your scan is SO CLOSE!!!! Totally will be stalking you. And thank you for your sweet words on me deleting my sway. It was cathartic. It really did help me a ton. Not as much as kissing some sweet baby cheeks will help me in February but it did help
Princess that is super sweet! What a precious, precious gift.

Thank you Mocha! I keep trying to stop coming and then I get sucked back in It's hard right now because there are so many women that I am invested in; you know? I do totally agree that there are loads of women who probably have no clue about GD. Lucky ladies. Sometimes I curse the day I googled "having a boy after two girls" but ah, whaddya do.
And FWIW I've said it before but I would have loved to raise boys. I am certain that you will do a fab job raising those boys into wonderful men who adore their mother. My DH and his mom are super tight. And I adore her too ... we talk more than I talk to my own mom! FX you get a DD of your own but if not, FX you get a loving DIL and some sweet grandbaby girls. I'm already praying like crazy for some SIL's and a whole mess of grandsons to mess up my house!

Begonia - my parents wanted a boy too (they had 2 girls then mum had cervical cancer and had a hysterectomy) and they now have 4 grandsons (and 1 granddaughter) with 2 more on the way!
DM - that's wonderful that you heard baby's heartbeat. I too am having that panic about going for my 12 week scan and not seeing a heartbeat. It's only natural when you have nothing but a line on a stick to go by up until that point!
Ugh, I'm sorry, I can't remember who else posted and what I wanted to say - I'm sat here feeling rather sick and planning to head off to my bed! I made the mistake of wearing an empire line top today and I looked so pregnant! I said to DH when he got home from work that perhaps I shouldn't have worn this top and he looked at me and gasped! I don't think anybody would be rude enough to ask though2005 2007 2009 2012

Zan that's kinda funny about the empire top! Those things can make a flat bellied woman look pregnant though!
The way my girls love salt and potatoes I will definitely end up with some grandsons

Hello everyone. I am new here but not new to swaying. I have 3 boys who are 7, 5 and 18 months old. I did not sway with my first two as I knew nothing about swaying and I wanted them to be boys...
Praying for a baby girl after 3...
