Mumto3boys - I am so sorry about your news! :( I agree with everyone, it is so nice to have a gathering place of people who truly understand. About a year ago or so when we were trying to make our 'final' decision about being done or going for three, I posted a question on a baby/child website asking if anyone got a different sex after having two of the same, and if so if they 'tried' for that certain sex. (just to see if stats about having two in a row really did screw your chances or not.) I got a lot of crap about how unfair and selfish it would be to try for a certain sex, on and on. Made me feel worse than I felt already!
Thing about this site and the fact that I've been in this situation - I am so happy for those that are getting their desired sex, and feel just as heart broken for those that don't. I truly struggled with DS2, and even asked to make sure it was still a boy when I got another ultrasound later, THEN still held on to the hope that both were wrong at delivery. Luckily, by the grace of God, I've loved that boy from the beginning. He is a sweetheart and a fire ball all rolled into one. I know he was meant to be. He was conceived very close to when our nephew was killed in a car accident, possibly even the same day as we made an attempt the night before, and he was born in the same month as our nephew's birthday month. That was a very hard time, emotionally and physically. Now, when I can put my own desires aside, I am so glad that my oldest son has a brother, and hopefully best friend for life! For me, it wasn't ever not loving DS2, just at the same time still thinking about a DD, like every single day! I felt so guilty because when I heard DS1 was a boy I was so happy...wish I could have been prepared to be happier with DS2. At the time, I thought I'd never get a chance for a girl, we were done having kids! I even sold all my baby stuff.
Now, I know it is going to hit me like a ton of bricks if it is a boy again, just because I FEEL like everything has come to this point for a reason...that is has to be a girl, despite symptoms. Everything that has happened to get to this point. My oldest even talks about a baby sister all the time - he doesn't even know we are pregnant! (Don't want a miscarriage or anything and have him be sad or confused).
Dreams - I know it hurts when you have a deep desire...but maybe (in case test is right) think of it like this....maybe this will make the bond between you and your daughter that much closer? And I'm sure her brothers will be very protective of their one and only sister. Maybe this will help?
Good luck ladies <3
Goodness, I didn't realize that post was so long - sorry!
from2to3 it will never cease to amaze me how absolutely insensitive & judgmental people can be. So thankful we all have found this site where we can talk about our feelings without that judgment!
As for my DD you are so right. That is one of the things I keep reminding myself I know I am so very blessed & really at this point she would be so much older than this baby they probably wouldn't have a close relationship for a long time. I also doubt my DD as a preteen & teen will want to share a room with a toddler & preschooler. Plus my youngest DS & this baby will be able to be playmates& all 4 of my kids want another DS. Keep telling myself all of this & I am dealing much better. GD does till sneak up on me but than I try to remember all of that & put things back in perspective. Plus to be honest I really truly one million percent hope all of you are able to get your girls & I can't let myself be down knowing all of you need your DD!
Fingers crossed this is your DD!!!!!!
Yea but with my luck its 2 boys lol I really do fell that they are 2 boys. I guess we will see soon :)Quote:

Just a note from Jessila (she's still trying to get used to navigating the site)
Congrats on your pink bundle, Jessila!Quote:
I felt I was having a boy I just tried to write back to you I'm not sure if my messages are sending sorry if it's a repeat but I just found out girl and that's what I was hoping for... Hope all is well...
Ladies I'm so sorry to hear you're having such a hard time with GD! I'm keeping you all in my thoughts and I pray things get easier for you! I had a hard time bonding with DS2, but it wasn't because of gender. His dad was very abusive and I hates him by the time I delivered. Of course my son came out looking exactly like his dad and I couldn't stand the fact that I saw this horrific person every time I looked at my baby. It was VERY hard to bond with him. I even failed at breastfeeding because I just didn't want to do it. I truly believe, like others have said, if we get our opposite genders after praying and swaying SO hard, those little babies are fighters and are given to us for a reason. I so, so scared that I will hear boy on the 25th. Even tho at 14 weeks I was told "nothing between the legs", I blurred out the "it's still so early, don't go telling anyone or buying anything" part. This is it! This is my girl! (I told myself) And now that my scan is just over a week away, I can't even sleep at night. I've acted like I was told 100% girl, when in reality, it's still 50/50! I'm so mad at myself for setting myself up for such disappointment. Anyway, I pray that anyone who doesn't get their dream gender can find comfort. And know we are all here to listen and to support you!! I know I couldn't get through this if it wasn't for you ladies!!
Thank you dreamsQuote:
