Ultrasound Thursday... Kind of freaking out

So I bit the bullet and made an appointment with an elective ultrasound place to find out the sex. I go this Thursday when I'll be 16 weeks 3 days. I'm nervous about finally hearing the verdict, another boy or the much sought after daughter. I am also really big for 15 weeks so we want to confirm it's one baby. It's my third so it's normal I assume to be so big so early.

We won't be sharing the sex with family because I want some time to deal with my GD and also give our family incentive to look forward to the birth, which I don't think they would if they knew it was a boy.

I've been looking at all the girl stuff I bought "just in case" (a few outfits) and hoping I won't feel foolish for hoping. This is most likely our last so yeah, just trying to prepare myself to accept whatever news we get.

Results on page 2!

Hi, you are so not foolish for hoping. We all hope. I still have my just in case outfits I brought before I found out my twins sex's. Although I feel the chance of a daughter for me is small I still cling to the hope that I may get her one day and get to use the outfits and that gives me comfort sometimes. I truely hope that these items you have will be in use in a few months time. :) It is not fair aye, that hope we have and the stress it adds to our pregnancy. Goodluck to you for Thursday

Good luck! Pink dust headed your way.

Good luck! We are all rooting for you and hoping you hear pink! Did you do an earlier u/s with nub shots at all?

Hope you hear pink!

No, this will be my first u/s so my only guesses so far have been based on old wives tales. I feel like it's a boy just based on my cravings being basically the same as my previous two pregnancies and the fact there is so much pressure from family that it be a girl.

Thank you for the dust! I'll take it!

So today I got the best pick me up. I was getting Taco Bell at the drive thru and the girl at the window was oohing and awing over my 6 and 3 year old boys in the back. Then she noticed I'm pregnant and asked if I knew what I was having and I said no. I half expected her say the usual now-you-need-a-girl but instead she says, "wouldn't it be awesome if you had three boys! They're beautiful"

It just made my heart beam. :o What a sweet girl, I want to buy her flowers she lifted my spirit so much!

What a lovely girl to say that! I hope you get to hear it's a girl but if not then hopefully the good vibe from that comment sticks. Your boys must be super cute. Goodluck for today :)

3 boys would be beautiful! That lady at Taco Bell is sure sweet (and smart)!
