I hope that you are able to make peace with waiting. It's such a hard thing. I do know I had no GD when I waited and bad GD when we found out... But at the same time it's maddening not knowing. ((hugs))

---

Thanks for empathizing Skrimpy ... it is maddening, absolutely a great word for it. I think if I hear boy I'll be glad I found out, if I hear girl, I don't think I'll have GD like I did last time. I think in a weird way I got all of that out with DD2. At this point I just want to know. I feel like I waste a lot of emotion throughout my day on something that could easily be resolved, KWIM? If I had at least gotten a hint from my NT scan I think I'd be more able to deal, but I got nothing! Little rascal!

AMAZING NEWS!!!!!!!!!

THRILLED to bits for your family :) Hopefully DD will accept the news ... ideally she'll just be thrilled she's 3 for 3 on guessing her siblings, LOL!

Now I have to find out mine, LOL!

Pretty sure this is normal.

5, no clue as I don't temp, sorry! Jen's sway is posted, by the way!

Kris, just read about your nephew... HUGS. I agree with others, you certainly did the right thing. Here's hoping he can get the help he needs and make some positive changes.

Jen I am with Skrimpy now ... happy tears are just flowing! It's just wonderful news. Now get shopping :)

And I can't wait to hear what you have too!! :)

begonia- I was the same HUGE GD when I had GD the first time and almost nothing the next time!
And oh yeah Jens DD was right! We should send her our pics see what she says:rofl:

Think I have a darn YI :( I remember when I first started swaying earlier this year that 2 weeks in to diet and supps I got a YI and same thing happening this time too?! Must be a sign of things changing inside..

ttc5 -I think must be from the change!

Yep I agree!!

Soooo Jen I bet you are just soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited!!!!!!!! And DH what did he say bet he screamed with joy heheh

When I started the boy diet I dropped the exercise to 10 miles a week, plus 3x a week weight training, and kept my intake around 2200-2500 but it was all good, nutrient rich foods. I gained about 5 lbs (I think due to the loss of so much cardio) and then the last 3-4 weeks before our attempt I really amped up my food intake to gain another 2. Since the BFP I've gained about 7lbs.

---

So B, what your saying is that you have to actually work out not to gain weight??? Yeah, I don't like it. There has to be another way! :)

Oh that is good to hear Flava, that it really can happen that way ... because I feel like I will be OK! Which is good because:

I made an appointment for Monday :oops::worry:

I'm definitely NOT going to have them tell me in the room though, I'll have it written down and open it later. I'm having some minor guilt about not telling DH about it ... but I really want him to have a surprise! I just can't take the not knowing myself... I'm sure it is a girl at this point and I think part of me just wants to rip that band-aid off. I love the IDEA of a surprise but I HATE the mental torture; I just want to enjoy this last pregnancy and I think I'll be better able to do that w/o the big WHAT IS IT hanging over my head. It is ZERO fun for me. But I want it for DH and this is the only way I can see us both getting what we want out of it! I just won't be able to tell anyone IRL, and I am confident I can do that. So ... here's hoping I have as much fun as Jen did today!

I had a japanese Dr once who said with a thick accent "breast fed baby, always bigger first 6 months" You had to be there, it cracks me up but is true. She's tall though so might stay that way.

Lola, Tink, and Jane......and maybe me will all be in the 2WW together!!!!

Has anyone ever been nausous while Oing? I just woke feeling yucky. I took all my normal supps and even some garlic capsules and did not yak, I have been eating like normal....just feel kind of off. Oh, and I don't have a temp.....hmmm

---

Yes, that's the 1 sign I found out I had. I used to get nervous I was pregnant when I was younger cuz I would get nauseas close to AF. Turns out I was O. Very weird and took me till I was 35 and swaying to figure that out. :)

Here's some pics

begonia I have a feeling you are having a boy. And do not feel guilty about not telling to DH because he don't want to know!!
You should feel guilty if you tell him!
OMG now I can't wait again to hear and see pics!! What time is it???

iluv- I just love japanese accent! And I love that they have this respect and honor going on ...like that ppl a lot.

OMG Jen that's FANTASTIC news!!! It's late in the UK but i had to log in to find out. One down, Begonia & i next.....You lucky lady, you dont have to stress with the what if's anymore. I'm sure you still in shock, you'll have to celebrate tonight. We'll catch up when you've settled

Are you really going to find out on Mon? How many weeks will you be? I'm soooo nervous for my scan on the 3rd, i feel sick when i think about it. I've prepared myself for girl & to be honest i've been ok with it lately. Cant wait for Mon now, yay it's all exciting. I bet you'll hear boy too

We also found out he's been hurting our animals and damaging our rental property. He has now been taking into care by DOCS. We can't have him in our home full time any more, he's just too dangerous. Threatening to kill us, and he runs away too. HE needs one on one care and daily counselling. I couldn't imagine him hurting our baby when it's born out of anger or jealousy. It's sad we had to do that but we couldn't sacrifice 5 peoples happiness and safety for him. No one would help so we took him to the ER and they had him admitted to the mental health unit.

Oh so 16 weeks is still considered a little early huh, damn I might have to wait until 18 weeks!

There is this lady Dianne Craft http://stores.diannecraft.org/Catego...y=Audio+CD%27s and she has some great hollistic approaches that can go along side of medication to help w/ exactly what you are talking about. The CD Biology of Behavior might help you out. She deals w/ ADHD as well as kids w/ "blocked learning gates" we are working with DD2 on her blocked writing gate and her stuff is great.

Oh Lord what a beautiful baby!!! Super cute!

And he is looking up! I love to guess nub and look at baby pic and Im not bad at guessing. I see sooo many time that the baby boys look face up strait just like Jens baby on this pic.
Don't know why is just something I notice a lot.
(not saying that baby girls not , but mostly the boys do this)

Just saw only 1 pic posted, here's the money shot :bigsmile:

I giggled, this is great but I'm that little red devil on your shoulder. :) seems like kinda the best of both worlds. Just don't emotionally give the whole gig away when you see DH.

That was funny Flava, sounds like a great idea to send the pics
