Can't wait to see pics of your precious girl, Surgena!!!
How are you doing Coocoo?
All you lucky ladies getting the good news of a girl! What a fun thing to get to celebrate over the Holidays! Congrats to everyone who was told dream genders recently.
I think my mom feels a bit bad for me, she is buying me baby gifts for Christmas and some new outfits for baby. She didn't do this with my second boy at all. I feel like I let her down because she really really wanted a granddaughter. oh well, can't win them all.
AHHHHHHHH EEEEEEEEEK!!!! Otis is going to have a Baby Sister!!!!!!Quote:

I'm relaxed, because I know it's a girl." I was like, "Geez, you're really so certain about that!"
During the scan, she went to the potty and in my head I was like, "No penis... I know what penises look like on an ultrasound... ummmm...." and she said, "It's a girl." all nonchalant like it was no big deal. I think I said, "OH WOW!!!"
And my husband said very calmly, "It's Willow!"
Now we got two Willow's to be born next year from this forum - I like that!
I better go get my packing crap together and get a shower and get in bed ASAP... I'll try to upload the video when I'm in the USA. :)
Thank you for all of your support during these craaaaazy 16 weeks, and before then... the months of TTC! Ouch!
You're an awesome bunch for sure!

Well that last line made me cry instantly. I am OVER the moon happy for you! Are you going to not announce it on FB? I totally would not so you can reveal it in your own way. I hope you are able to sleep and have a safe trip over here! And please update if you can, I'd love to hear your family's reaction when you tell them!
~Goodnight~

Night! <3
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!! Congratulations on your healthy little :princess: I am so happy for you :) That must be an awesome feeling to know finally.. What a wonderful time you will have away with your family, enjoy this special time of year!!! Cant wait to see pics from the scan :) Your nub pics are similar to mine so I hope it means the same for me too!!!! Have a safe trip over :)
Just saw your pics and there is no doubt about it!!! She's all girl!!! x
Honestly? Pretty bad, just low feeling and jealous and I hate feeling that. I knew I wouldn't get a girl, but I thought maybe this time I thought things would go my way:(Quote:

Although I'm not sure if talking about what you aren't getting is better or trying to not think about it do much?!? I think it would be neat to see our boys grow up and see how each of us is doing ok. I try to find women with blogs online who have 3 boys and when they're all happy, it brings me comfort. Although there's still this thing...I won't ever have a girl, all I wanted was 1 girl aghhhh! K gotta log off, driving me crazy again;)
Sorry Coocoo :(
I have another scan tomorrow. Hopefully she is still a she. Lol.
But it's mainly bc it's getting closer and closer to when I lost the baby last time and I'm freaking out.
I used the Doppler once today but I seriously wanted to 2-3 times.
I feel guilty about so many u/s (I have a level 2 next weds too at Mfm) but the stress is worse.
Although at the same time I learned last time things might look great one day and then the next theres no Hb. So I don't know if the scans help
Sorry I don't mean to get anyone down or freak anyone out. I just can't talk to dh about this stuff and need somewhere to vent. We rarely talk about the baby , I think he is afraid to get attached
I'm going to say YES she's still a girl! :giggle: :cheer:Quote:

(((bighugs))) Spinning, my heart goes out to you and your DH. Best wishes and healthy rainbow thoughts for your scan tomorrow.
Spinning, please dont feel guilty about the ultrasounds. If it makes you feel less anxious then thats more important. I can understand your worry and your DH is probably feeling what you say although my Dh doesnt really connect in pregnancy to be honest, he's really odd like that. He is the best dad in the world when theyre here but totally disinterested in the pregnancy bit, or at least that is how I feel. It bothered me with the first 2 but I know he just finds it hard when its just my big ole belly. Once he can see bubs moving he's a little more interested but not overly. I know tomorrows scan will be just fine and her bits will still be girl ones lol x
TTP - Are you feeling anxious about your scan on Sat?? So excited for you!!!
I am getting there.... less then 3 weeks now, I know thats gonna go so quick and Im so excited and nervous!! I just hope bubs is healthy.
Coocoo Im so sorry your are feeling down, I wish there was something I could say :( xx
Hope you have a safe journey home suregena, have an amazing time and plz keep in touch xx
Seeing as NC hasn't been on for a while now i updated the 1st page. Looks like we have 17 :DS: and 10 :DD: being born between Feb - May 2013.
Hey Cinss could I get added to the list too please if that would be alright. I am due on March 17th with a baby girl. I know I joined the thread really late as after being hospitalised with bleeding at 16-17 weeks I was afraid this Rainbow baby would never get to be here but would love to join the list now please.Quote:

I would like to think I did a little bit but to be honest I would not insult the girls here who have done such good/strong sways by saying I did as I only found this website on 11th June (the day after I started AF) and got pregnant that same cycle. I had never even hear of swaying until the month I got pregnant so reckon it was more blind luck than swaying that got us our girl.Quote:

Edited to ask: Is it alright that I am still here when I did not do a proper sway??
*hugs* wish I could say something to help.Quote:

Don't hate yourself, you have nothing to hate yourself for, I feel pangs of jealousy too, but its not bitter jealousy, or vindictive jealousy, more sort 'oh why couldn't it be me' jealousy
Awesome news surgena, massive congrats :)
Enjoy your trip to the states!
Of course, i was just asking so i knew what to write next to your name on the list :)Quote:

Was there anything u can think of that may have swayed by chance?
What is dim, never heard of it?Quote:

What I did that could have swayed when I read the forums here:
Both my boys and I were sick so I was taking sudafed for about 5-6 days in a row around the time of concieving. I read that that sways pink after my bfp.
After two missed misscarriages discovered at just over 12 and 13 weeks I was put on baby aspirin daily as my Consultant was worried my blood may have been a bit thick and if it clogged in the placenta it would cause a miscarriage. I had to stay on this until a couple of weeks ago throught the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. I think that sways pink.
I did find the LE diet about a week before conception (just after AF started) and while I didn't really follow it and did eat meat I lost some weight and that probably helped but I am not sure as I read after it you should be on it for at least 6 weeks and I was only half doing it for about 6 days.
As for dtd we did it almost every day (missed one) from cycle day 10 to cd 19. I ovulated on cyle day 18. My hope was really to get pregnant again with a healthy baby rather than anything else after loosing my baby but we did dtd more than we ever did with either of the boys.
After I got my bfp I was sure it was another boy but maybe those small changes were what did it for me. I had made changes in my life, most of them without knowing but still changes.
Dim is a natural drug derived from broccoli & cauliflower etc.. it is said to rid the body of the bad estrogens. I took it along with a liver cleanser as I had a huge fibroid removed so was trying to prevent another one. I have no ideawhether it sways pink but it may do. I have 20 more days before I find out :)
Oh right thansk for that. I am probably a bit stupid for asking but just never heard of it.
20 days will fly by. When is your scan the 2nd January? I only ask cause I have my next consultants appointment on 2nd Jan and was counting it as 20 days. I love see babs on the scanning machine and count down between appointments. I will be praying for you and keeping fingers and toes crossed you hear Pink at your scan. Just looked at your nub shots there and while I know very little about them from what I have seen on here they do look girlie to me.
