Just got back from a small BBQ where no one knows we are pregnant yet but everyone kept telling us we need a boy, need to try for a boy cried on the way home because I feel like this is my third girl and there's nothing I can do about it and I feel like no one is going to be excited for us

Sending lots of love and hugs!! I would do anything to give you all my blue dust in exchange for your pink. I understand that longing and heartache for your DG. Praying you did get your little boy!
PS edited to add I’m so sure everyone would be excited for you regardless. Not a lot brings as much wonder and joy as a brand new baby xx

It makes me so angry because there are so many women who want all girls. Why can't people just shut up and keep their opinion to themselves??

Just here to type this out and vent. This is my only safe place as reddit cracks down on anyone once they mention gender at all.
I have gone down the rabbit hole and am so impatient to find out. I know just knowing will help so much (even if it is a girl and its starting the grieving process) but there's nothing I can do about it right now. I torture myself analyzing my symptoms which I know doesn't mean shit. On my bumpers group anytime anyone mentions a boy, I stalk their profile and see if they were nauseous or had bad skin or what the HR was which I know does nothing because my pregnancy and baby will be different because they are unique to me but UGH.
My husband tries to be supportive but he says he doesn't want to talk about the gender because he doesn't want to get his hopes up for either. He also is having a hard time connecting because no one is allowed at scans so its just meh for him which I totally sympathize with. But it's hard not having anyone to go totally crazy and word vomit all this to.
I know I would love a girl once she is here because I have done it twice before but I'm really struggling with the feelings of possible failure. This was unexpected (but welcomed) and it drives my control freak side crazy that I didn't get to do my sway that I had planned. I also just want to have a boy to shut everyone up. I'm so sick of the all girl comments. I'm so sick of having to hear about and constantly be reminded of "not being able to make a boy" which drives my control freak and competitive sides crazy because its not something I can control and its like people are mocking something I can't do.
I find slight comfort in the fact that the boy chances are slightly higher and that we made a lot of healthier changes even if it wasn't full on HE at the time. We were eating way healthier (oatmeal, spinach salads, home cooked meals), I quit coffee and drank black tea twice a day, both of us were taking suggested vitamins and my DH quit dipping for me we also were BD often and unprotected but the question that keeps me awake at night was IS IT ENOUGH. No idea when I ovulated so we probably only had one in the fertile. And I wasn't really exercising at the time besides some body weight yoga i guess we will wait and see but the waiting game is killing me.

But even if your sway had gone completely according to plan it can still not be enough. I think you changed a lot, and for all we know the fact htat you fell pregnant so easily may indicate you were more blue friendly to start with!

harmony blood test is in so hopefully we will get those results quickly. Any skull theory guesses? These aren't the best pics as baby was being ornery

Hi Polaris I'm not great at guessing nubs but 12 weeks is still early, nub could rise..
My sister in law had her scan at 12 plus 5 days and was told girl each time.... well she had a boy so its made me a little skeptical on nubs.
Your still in with the chance of hearing blue xxx
