When I found out "she" was a he it was like someone had stolen my daughter and replaced her with a changeling - it realy cn mess with your head even when you don't have any gender desire at all. Stay away from them!
Atomic this is just like my third. Early on everyone kept saying it was a girl ( possibly just projecting their own wishes in me...) And then I was analysing every little thing and I too became convinced... Even had name picked out. When I found out it was a boy I felt robbed too and really really sad....and then when he was born and I saw his sweet face I felt guilty for that.
Anyway, so no old wives tales....I'm waiting for science to confirm!
Had dating scan yesterday and little heart beating away and confirmed week 7. Relieved to see just one after the clomid! At first I saw 2 dark areas and was panicking but sonographer explained one one spot was my ovary! Phew! BTW.....I adore twins but not at my age with 4 other kids!!
So just 3-4 weeks and I can get harmony test to confirm.
Hoping time flies....feeling good so far.

Yes I had a name picked out, didn't even bother with a boy's name, and worst thing - got rid of all my boy clothes (I'm telling you, I was delusional, LOL). I went all in with the girl idea. but nope! Got the boyingest boy who ever boyed instead.
Great news that it's only just one on board! Good luck and huge congrats!

UPDATE- so I've had the harmony test done 4 days ago and results normally in 3-7 days. Nervously waiting. The exhaustion and nausea with this pregnancy has been quite overwhelming for last 3 weeks. I'm nearly 11 weeks now. Food has been a real battle. I've still gained 2kg though which is good as I was underweight when I got my bfp and was worried about it sticking. I have had some bleeding which has been upsetting....only on 3 occasions, very light pinkish/brown watery discharge. I know bleeding is considered normal but my experience is no bleeding at all for 3 healthy babies and bleeding for those I miscarried so I have been a bit worried. Especially now I'm so close to second trimester.
Anyway, I've tried not to obsess but have gone over and over my sway and tried to remind myself of all the positives. I exercised loads for 8 months, diet for 6 months, took clomid for 3 months, had alcohol and caffeine, Hubby took olive leaf, hubby cycled loads, my AF changed from morning to night in last 2 cycles, I was underweight, we did every 4 days, no orgasm.....that's off top of my head!
I'm so nervous to find out ...Im hoping results come today before I have to wait the weekend. I think my oldest son knows something is up. We have told noone but my best friend as frankly I couldn't bear the scrutiny of everyone's input/ opinions if we announced I before we knew if it was a girl it not.
Anyway.....will update once the results are in!
