My advice, don't eat a Milky Way and drink a Dr. Pepper right before going in because not only will you be incredibly nervous, you'll be jittery as a madwoman too!!!

He didn't come into the scan with me - he stayed outside with the kids - but when I came out and told him he gave me a big hug. He's happy it's a girl, but really I think most of the happiness is for my sake. He saw what I went through after finding out ds3 was a boy and didn't want me to go through that again. He also knows that now I'll finally feel our family is complete, which I do - no more chance of me asking him for another baby (though he never would have agreed anyway).Quote:

They all want a baby sister, and I want to involve them in the process of buying clothes, etc. I'll just tell them we're pretty sure it's a girl so if for some reason the sex changes it won't be such a shock (though I would have a heart attack!). I'm going to be telling the rest of my family - my 3 brothers and their wives and kids - when they arrive here tomorrow afternoon, so I think I'll tell my boys before then.
I bumped into an old friend today and told her I was pregnant. She of course wanted to know if I knew the gender yet and I lied and said no. It was soooo hard - I want to shout it from the rooftops!
I feel the same crappy I don't even know why Im coming here Im such a downer .:sad:
Flava - I've seen some of your posts in Blue Crew and I'm worried about you. Do you have any history of post-partum depression? Apparently some women experience a similar thing during pregnancy. I found this resource online:
Depression in Pregnancy - Public Health Agency of Canada
I hope you're not offended - I just want to make sure you're ok! :HH:
Hope your ok Flava xxx

My DS2 been so cute recently, putting his head on my tummy and telling us he can hear baby talk to him. It says 'it loves Benjy, loves Elliott, loves Oliver, mummy daddy and the dogs and cat.'
If only he knew it's probably just my belly rumbling...:rofl:

Also, I'm officially nub-sessed. I added a different pic onto my u/s post for guessing. I just found a new one that I didn't notice the first time I was scanning stuff! I guess I'll be staring at other nubs again.
