Congrats on ur baby boy! I have the best bond with my third boy it's insane! It nothing to have pitty about your having a healthy little boy :)
I am def looking into making one of those rug! I love them I have bought a few for my kitchen but always end up having to throw them out cause of spills and such :( I think I would like one for infront of my crib...
Fish- Can't wait for your results too! Hopefully you get some positive news.
Mum- Looking good, you are still all bump! I have really popped too, will take some pics later this week if I get the chance.
WAG- I can't imagine how akward that was. Sad that he isn't involved in his son's life :(
DLTA- So sorry you've been sick! I've never had food poisoning but have had horrible stomach bugs and I know how much it takes a toll on you. Hope the bleed is nothing serious, has it stopped or is it ongoing?
Thorz- Glad to see you around! Those rugs are awesome and I can't believe you are going to make them yourself, I'm impressed!
Shining- Thinking of you and hope you're doing ok!
Northern- you are still very much in my thoughts. I actually awoke several times last night thinking about you and your sweet little Evelyn.
You posted your update while I was slowly pecking away with my long previous post lol.Quote:

He has brought so much joy to our family I cannot even describe it. It's because of him that I don't have any GD this go around. He has taught me soooo much in the short time he's been on this earth and I am thankful everyday that I was lucky enough to have him. You will get there too, I know it. It's ok to go through all the emotions you need to, no need for any guilt. Sometimes you have to go through that part in order to get to the other side and find the "light" waiting for you. Once you see that little light, you will fall head over heels in love!
Ok took a quick pic... I'm gaining so much weight!!! Was 89lbs when I got my bfp and am now up to 115lbs BOOOO:tissue:

Southern you still look tiny! Later today ill take a bump pic, and you will see chunky!! I don't even look pregnant just fat......
So I might over load you ladies with pics as I make progress in the rooms! We bought a bunk bed with a full bed underneath for my older boys. I actually didn't want it and I was mad at DH for spending money on it because I had 2 very expensive pottery barn twin bedding sets (originally expensive but not for me because one was a hand me down and the other an ebay find) so I wanted a double twin bunk bed. But he bought the other anyway......I was freaking out because it didn't want to waste the other bedding, or try to figure out how to find something that goes well with the one i would use on the top bunk but on a whim I decided to look on Craig's list and I found a full/queen set of the bedding for only $40 (this was incredibly lucky because they haven't sold this set in stores for over 10 years) so now if we ever stuff another twin bed in this room I have bedding for all 3 boys!!! I was so excited about finding the bedding I started to put the bunk bed together myself just so I could see what it was going to look like. I only got the full bed assembled when I realized the rest of the bunk bed would have to wait for DH because my hips are killing me.....oh we'll at least I got this far.....

Sorry for the long post I was just super excited to have found it and to be getting started!
For whatever reason the GD that comes with a 3rd of the same genders is raw and real and extremely painful.Quote:

I love my DD1 and DD2 but DD3 is the epitome of my heart running around outside my body.
In the meantime, I feel your pain so well and I know you will get through it. Stay busy and distracted and plan out what you will say to people who ask.
My two cents is to LIE and say you don't know the gender. The comments I got with DD3 were BRUTAL and if I did it again, I'd flat out lie. No one is going to make a stupid ass comment when you have a beautiful baby in your arms!!
Hugs honey!!!
Hey all what a busy day!
Shining star congratulations on your beautiful baby, we all know you will fall in love with him and that the way you feel is because of the loss of your dream of a girl. Say whatever is on your heart no one will judge you here I'm so sorry, hopefully you'll have time to come to terms with this before your beautiful boy arrives
Wag - ugh horrible moment, don't dwell on the past he must be a loser ;-)
Thorz - omg where are you getting the energy for all this?! Impressed!
Southern that is a tiny bump lol!
Daltag oh being ill is never fun poor you, celebrate with those who celebrate morn with those who morn, don't compare, the fact we all share our highs and lows is what makes this work. Bleeding and unsympathetic midwives sucks
Northern - thoughts and prayers with you and dh tonite there are no words, assume you have childcare for the boys? If not me n boys will come and road trip to you, you must nt go alone. If there is anything we can do please let us know thinking of you
We've had a lovely day out in the sun what I needed! And some good news finally! I have no current antibodies for toxoplasmosis! The microbiologist said for the number to be zero the infection must have been weeks ago possibly months ago they froze my 'booking bloods' this was at about 9 weeks into preggie so they are testing these now results on Monday, if these come back negative too it's an infection from before I was preggie! Feeling brighter today thank you all for your support feel like there is some hope today everything crossed for Monday!
Such good news fish!!!! Yay!
Fish, that's great news! I'm so happy and I can imagine you are very relieved. I bet you get more good news Monday!
Thorz, where on earth do you get all this energy??? I've been soooo fatigued the last week or so, it's all I can do to keep my eyes open some days. The bedding looks adorable. I love PB kids too but like you I only buy it second hand.
