Yayyyyy queenb!!!!! Congrats!!!
[emoji178]
Big congrats to everyone who is getting their happy news lately! Good stuff all around!
You are all getting girls, and I think I probably am too, although I seem to be the only one who was hoping for a boy! I did what I thought was a pretty decent boy sway, but I do have some things working against me: my husband is a heavy exerciser, I was only seven months postpartum, and I had just taken two rounds of heavy antibiotics for a UTI and a sinus infection. The 12-week, very girly nub was a real wet blanket too. I'm trying not to be down, especially when I overall feel really good this pregnancy! I would have thought it was a boy because it's been more like my boy pregnancy than my two girls. Three more weeks for me until I know for sure!
Im keeping my fingers crossed for the both of us rosie!
Yeah booooo im anemic :( iron supplements here i come... Guess colace and i are gonna get even better aquainted
Thanks for the update bura...hope you can get to feeling better soon!
I'm anemic as well. I have been taking supplements for a week, and don't think I've had a BM for as long. I didn't realize that was a side effect.... I have also had really bad dizzy spells, sometimes it goes black, I haven't passed out but my heart rate races. I hate taking them because they just add to the morning sickness. Hope the supplements help in the good ways, not the bad ways[emoji16]!Quote:

srg09cag11, Burakoam is also hoping for boy, so you're not the only one!
Angelique, even though I might have had luck now with a girl with no sway, I've had 3 boys before a girl. :) So even if you have a boy now, you'll be more like me than if you have a girl now :D ;)
How exciting all these girls!! I'm freaking out a bit as my 12w scan is tomorrow. We are team green but I'm so hoping I get a good nub shot to share.
Good luck Mars!
Rosie, have you checked your B12 levels or your vitamin D levels?
Burakoam- so glad you got things figured out! Hopefully adding the iron makes you feel tons better:)
Beautiful baby Angel! Hope it's your girl!!
Mars- hope you get a good nub shot! Good Luck!
With my last pregnancy I had a couple scary dizzy spells. It was the worst. The one time I actually called DH home from work. And I never do that. It was first thing in the morning and I remember thinking I had no idea how I made it down the steps!! Not sure what it was other than prego craziness.
Can't wait to tell my boys they are getting a baby sister!! I can't even believe I just typed that! We are waiting until Friday to tell them. There is no way they could keep it quiet and we won't make it around to tell all the family until the weekend comes:)

Rosie i was also dehydrated today when they got to me. ran two bags of fluid through me right away. and they did say that dehydration adds to the shortness of breath etc..you have been pretty sick this pregnancy? maybe you are a little on the dehydrated side? do you often feel really super thirsty or cotton mouthy?
I am dehydrated a bit. Drinking too much makes me feel sick but im trying to get it in. My vitamin d should be good as i take 5000 iu a day.
All these things you are talking about i also had up til sbout two weeks ago. Nausea, massive heartburn, heartbeat racind like crazy, feeling like your having a panic attack. I felt so mich nausea that i could not take any of my pregnancy vitamins or supplements.. Have also just started them now (week 12)
The most weird for me was my cola. I normally drink one to two glasses a day. And now i could hop over some days and i took some, half a glass was already too much.
So weird how pregnancy changes your body. With my DS i had no funny things at all, no sickness no nausea it was great...
I know what you mean. I cant stand the taste of mountain dew anymore if i have a soda its cherry pepsi cherry coke or cherry dr pepper. I loved egg whites, and now they make me feel ill when i eat them however egg yolks are okay..there are tons of things i loved in general or love with my other two pregnancies that are just so undesirable to me right now. Mcdonalds breakfast is okay to me, but their lunch makes me gag at the thought. I feel like a different person lol
Lets hope this means good news for us Burakoam! ;-)
I had zero.food issues this time around. Not even smells bothered me. Just no appetite at all until a few days ago. With my 3 boys i could barely eat anything and every smell made me want to puke...meat was a major no no.
For me this pregnancy is nothing like my others except for i still had severe nausea. My leg hair is growing soo slow compared to the inch it would grow a day with my boys and the hair on my head...its falling out. No acne this time and i am itchy and cold where as i have never itched and was always hot with my others.
This is going to be so much fun:) we wrapped a big box up with a punch of pink balloons for our boys! There is a letter attached to them for ds1 to read. They will be opening it in about an hour. I hope they are not disappointed! Ds1 & ds2 think it is filled with toys and stuffed animals for them. And ds3 thinks it is a puppy!!
We are going to record the whole thing and that is how we will tell everyone else:)

How awesome queen!!! Can't wait to hear how they react!
I want to see that video ;)
Thats so neat queen! i agree if you are comfortable sharing it with us id like to see their expressions too... i bet they are priceless lol
7 days and counting you guys. Gender scan next saturday. :ttcboy::pray::xy:
If they let us record the short video where they go between babies legs i will be sharing that here and with family/friends. Nobody on here will know what im having until i post the video :giggle:
How are you keeping up Burakoam?
:nails:
:fingers: for :xy:
Nerve wrecking isn't it Burakoam??? I hope your hear news that will make you float! I have not come down off my high yet!!!
Today I am officially 13 weeks-out of the first trimester and I am so relieved! I made it. I have started telling ppl I am pregnant and almost all of them have commented on the gender-" bet you hope to a girl", "do you want a girl",,, blah, blah. I just smile and nod and say well time will tell! I am not telling anybody the sex yet- even tho I really want to!
[emoji178]
Same nerves her Burakoam!! Im having my gender scan on fridays !! [emoji33][emoji33]
I think im coming to terms with the Fact i may be an all girl mom and be okay with it if thats the route things go. I know so many ladies especially on here who would have loved to have nothing but girls and i am considered lucky to even have the two ive had. I agree they sure are special little girls and a third one wouldnt be so bad. I will mourn for my son if this is not him growing in my belly but i dont think its going to affect how i feel about this baby at all.. My husband doesnt care either way, its me that wants to give him the gift of a son in a house currently full of women lol
But this may be the calm before the storm for me so to speak because there is a part of me thats certain its a boy. Its either a boy or my body is lying to me lol
I'm 13 weeks too. I haven't told many people for that reason 2 boys. I just don't want to hear it.
I dreamt last night I gave birth and I didn't look to see what it was. Everyone was asking me and so excited and I looked and it was a boy. I was gutted. God I hope it doesn't happen in reality :(
Well ladies my boys had absolutely no reaction at all to the box full of balloons and letter:-/ the video is completely underwhelming and we didn't even use it to tell people. But it has been fun telling people and the boys seemed to be more and more excited. I think the problem was the box. DH wanted it sat out in the morning to build their anticipation. Well ds3 spent all day thinking there was a puppy in the box and ds1 and ds2 thought it was full of new stuffed animals and toys!

Awww, sorry it didn't turn out the way that you wanted! It was a really cute idea, but kids are so unpredictable. My girls would have been the same way -- they would have spent all day thinking about what toys they thought were in the box and would have been super disappointed that there wasn't something more. Probably would have wanted the baby itself!
We are happy for you, even if your kids aren't, Queen! :)
How is the second trimester treating the rest of you?? I sometimes forget that I'm pregnant, except for the growing bump and continued exhaustion. I'm a teacher, so I'm counting down the days until the end of the school year!
Hi everyone,
I haven't been on here in ages....
Congrats two boys and queen! So happy for you both! 2 more who got their DG, amazing :)
Queen it is such a bummer the boys didnt react! Glad they are excited though!
I have my 16 week appt tomorrow. Hope baby still has a heartbeat! Still not really feeling movement so i am nervous!
Burakoam how are you holding up until saterday.. Im counting away the hours until friday..
QueenB, I'm sorry your surprise went wrong! I guess if one puts oneself in the shoes of little boys, who expect a puppy or lots of cool toys, a bunch of pink balloons is a proper let down! :D
How about doing a gender reveal party for friends and family? Or have you already announced?
Angel this week is going to drag for me i just know it lol.. Gonna try and focus on other things but ugh thats hard. Fingers crossed for you on friday angel :)
Hope you have a great appointment today Rosie:)
Ds1 ended up having lots of fun telling family he was getting a baby sister. We hadn't even told anyone we were excepting. So it was a double surprise:) my mom and DH mom had a feeling that maybe there was a pregnancy. But my mother never dreamed that it would be a girl. There is no way I would have had a gender reveal party. It is just not my thing. Not that I don't think they are a fun idea. I just get super anxiety when there is a chance I could be the center of attention. I just get really awkward and uncomfortable.
Can't wait until the end of the week when Angel and Burakaom have their gender scans! Best wishes!!
Tarasue- are you doing a nipt? Or an early gender scan? Sorry, I can't remember:-/

I totally understand QueenB, I don't like being the center of attention either!
Good luck tomorrow at your scan Rosie!
Angelique and Burakoam, good luck with the wait!!
Thanks Claire!
No scan for me! Not until my 20 week visit. Just the 16 week check. I meet my new doctor today since my other clinic shut. Nervous i won't like them!
Baby is still alive! 153 bpm and I felt some movement earlier today. Feeling like this pregnancy is actually going to work out now. Huge relief.
