Oh...myRainbowgirl...I just cried reading your entry. Your hubby sounds amazing...and I have to believe that you have not only the strength for 4 boys, but also a wonderful daughter who will join your family. I really wanted your rainbow promise to the this baby for you....he is going to be so special. Lots of hugs and congrats too!
Crazylady, welcome and good luck!
Rainbow girl! Your certainly not crazy! I'm sorry you didn't get the news you wanted, it is sooooo hard to hear! I hope that with time it will get easier! Your DH sounds fabulous! There is no way mine would consider HT or adoption (although I would consider both), he believes in what will be will be ((((sigh))))
AMA = Advanced Maternal Age. :) And thank you for your encouragement! I really think you're going to hear pink on Monday! GL!!Quote:

I don't know if I really want a DD so bad as to have #5, but knowing it's an option is such a comfort! We'll see how #4 goes. Heehee. At the same time, who am I to stand in the way of God's promise, ya know?? We'll see in time. :)
Hope you all have an amazing weekend!
Oh rainbow I'm sorry hun. Brill news that he is perfectly healthy. I truly think my baby is a boy too so I will be joining you in the four boy club.
Your husband sounds amazing. How lovely he is on board with making your dream of a daughter happen no matter what. Mine is too but we wouldn't have the means to do ht and hubby doesn't want to adopt so it would have to be our natural little girl.
Four boys is so special. They will be amazing
Myrainbowgirl...you are so inspiring and if you do have five, I have no doubt that you will be given the ability to enjoy all five!
Wasn't I saying the same thing about you a little while back?? ;) I appreciate your encouragement so much, and am so happy you got your DD! (Still praying for her, btw!)Quote:

I just can't imagine swaying again, knowing clearly there's no guarantee. I think the only natural route I am not opposed to is not trying, just letting it happen. But, it's the same risk. I mean, how likely after 4 boys is it for me to naturally conceive a girl?? But, I also think that my obsessive nature in all my TTCing was part of my problem. It's scary for me to even take that chance, though! Just need to think more and look into options, and all that stuff. Still not sold that I want another!
Rainbow I would rather have five boys than 4 boys I think. My feeling is that if by some miracle this baby is a girl I would like to have a fifth because I would really like to have another baby like my first pregnancy where I would genuinely not care about gender at all. I'm not sure of my hubby would go for another if this was a girl. But pretty sure it's a boy!
Myrainbowgirl....my baby and I so appreciate all the prayers!! I have been feeling more positive about the 97 vs the 3 and am living in faith that she will arrive perfectly healthy. If you do chose to have another wee munchkin, you will be given the energy at that time!!!
So if this is another boy, you won't sway for your fifth? That's so cool. I wish I had your attitude! I am so blown away by 4 boys, I just cannot imagine 5. With your 3 boys, do you feel like your house is chaos? I sometimes do. I am the type who likes a clean house, order, etc., and 3 little boys is a recipe for the opposite! And of course, now we know it will be 4 boys. I am praying that God gives me strength beyond my own to handle the craziness. :) I know He wouldn't give me what I couldn't handle, so I obviously will be able to deal. Haha. Just hard to imagine! It's funny, though, I don't know why I automatically assume that if I had a girl she'd be perfectly behaved, and neat and clean and never get into things or make messes. She'd only have her brothers as role models, so I bet she'd be right in the middle, the biggest duck in the puddle! ;)Quote:
