I'm starting to regret being team green now too. I did want to find out but decided not to because DH wanted to be team green. I just having a dreading feeling for the birth and that my sway failed ....and I despise failure! I know I'll grow to love the baby if it's a girl but I just can't see how I will be able to not be so disappointed and upset after the birth for a few hours.
Then you should absolutely find out. You can talk with your doctor about your feelings and have him/her tell you either at your appointment or have him/her write it down for you to read later. This happened to my close friend, and I️ personally think it contributed to her postpartum depression.Quote:

LMSM oh i see :) if its literally just on the boarder of low then it will be pulled up and out of the way in time, but i agree they should at least offer you a quick re-scan around 35 weeks just to assure you since they have told you its a bit low now and put it into your head.
gotta love an unassisted homebirth ;) you will rock it wherever you have her :D can you not book a homebirth given your history of very fast births? it seems far more risky for you to get in the car and end up delivering somewhere between home and hospital, over here if you have a fast birth they recommend homebirth for your next baby for that reason.
im feeling good thankyou :heart: it still doesnt really feel real!! we havent told the kids we never do, we dont announce to anyone before baby is born and if the kids knew they'd be telling everyone!! we save it and let it be a big surprise for them when baby arrives :) they have been begging for another baby for months now so i know they will be over the moon, especially once they've asked "can we keep him/her?" and the answer is yes!! my youngest is oblivious she is only 12 months and far too busy walking around getting into everything to notice anything else really!!
i hope everything goes well with telling your friend, its a very difficult position to be in but im sure she will really appreciate you telling her to her face and not just leaving her to find out via facebook or through someone else etc
have you found any names for your baby girl? i find girl names so hard!!
dancingdiva if team green is making you miserable then find out, if it isnt the right thing for you then dont keep on with it, im sure your dh will understand and the last thing you want to do as XX's post shows is put yourself at an increased risk of post-natal depression
LMSM - yes she does give weight estimates if you ask and that's one of the reasons I booked the appointment (other than to see that cute squishy lil face). How did your meeting go? I hope your friend is taking the news ok. When I was pregnant with my first, my ex SIL was due 2 months after me and she miscarried hers and I hated when people asked me pregnancy things in front of her because she should have been experiencing similar things at the time, she now has 3 little girls.
Dancing I agree with finding out prior to birth also if you're worried about your reaction [emoji173]
4blue2pink am I missing something??!! Have you confirmed girl??!! [emoji3][emoji3]

Dancing, for what it’s worth....I’m so incredibly jealous of PBN’s gender reveal in the hospital. I️ love how she has it planned out and soooo wish more than anything that I️ was ok with either gender and could do it that way. However, this time around I️ was so set on girl that I️ knew I’d have the reaction that I’m having to hearing an opposite. I️ talked to a therapist about it and she told me that one of the best things I️ could have done for myself was to find out early so that I️ had time to work through my feelings, rather than trying to do that with the added hormones and stress of a newborn. I️ have to agree because it’s taken me a good month to get comfortable (and excited) about a boy, but it would have been a whole other situation if I️ had uncovered that after birth knowing I️ already have crazy hormones afterwards. That’s just my personal story, it doesn’t mean that I’m not still incredibly in awe and jealous of those that can wait to find out, but it taught me in my own personal case that knowing ahead of time (again for me) was right. I’ve also seen atomic say that if you have the slightest hesitation about it then to find out. I️ can also see the other side in just waiting since once baby is in your arms you will love him/her regardless. But you have to do what’s right for you.

By the way pbn, I️ took your shopping advice to heart and we have one spoiled (and I️ must say also well dressed!!!) little guy. I’ll post pics tomorrow when I️ have energy to get up and walk to his room. [emoji170] surprised at how much I’m liking little man clothing. And for those of you that haven’t heard about kickee pants yet, check out their newborn onesies. They are ah-mazing!!!!!
