I hope one day you can have your little boy if you do decide to try for no. 4 but if not I hope you can find happiness with your three girls.

I'm actually doing a lot better this time than I did the second time ! It's strange but I'm glad I don't have the severe GD like I had then . I am ready to meet this little lady and maybe MAYBE one day we will have a son ! Lol
Prayers for you to overcome GD .. I know all too well how depressing it can be !

Atomic - I know you are very vocal about the fact that if you can do PGD do it.
We really thought (when I was in bits about my failed sway) that we would ONLY do PGD next time.
Now...I am actually not as invested in boy or girl, I think for me this failed sway has brought me peace, and turned me from a real control freak into a ....slightly less control freaky person.
If I had gotten my girl, I don't think I would be having such a relaxed and amazing pregnancy.
I would be planning the minutia of everything.
So I can honestly thank this site for that.

That is perfectly said and how I feel also! Although I'm still not counting PGD out completely hahaha

I have never, ever, ever said anywhere even once that swaying is a guarantee of gender and I think I'm pretty vocal about it as a matter of fact.

As long as swaying comes in consistently better than 50-50 (which it has for both pink and blue, every year for 6 years, even though I include sways that were less than ideal)

My heartfelt goal is for everyone to get their desired gender. But if swaying could EVER be a guarantee the entire human race would have died out a long time ago, the first time there was an extended famine only girls would be born. It just isn't 100%, I've never promised that to anyone and never will.

My comment wasn't an attack on you at all and I'm very sorry if you took it that way . You were very helpful when I needed advice :) I think this site is very interesting and I learned a lot but I just personally believe that without controlled studies , doctors , and labs .. we can only consider this site as fun . I would highly recommend PGD to anyone who's serious about wanting to select gender .

After all I did to sway , I'm starting to question swaying in general .. if we decide to have another baby after this we will do PGD . All depends on if we coan afford it or not at that time and if we want to have 4 children ! Lol


Cnburke it's like you are in my brain! I do question swaying now as well but I still don't have any true anger towards the process because it forced me into great shape. However I do get upset about the fact that I thought I had control over what's an uncontrollable situation. I almost wish I had read more failed sway posts with the hopes that people would've said--if you truly want a specific gender go PGD and do not risk swaying. I saw some like that but not enough. However I have only myself to blame.

If we ever decide a 4th...I'm only doing PGD. Apparently there's a doctor here who has success with spinning and I won't even risk that. But I would have to weigh if the expense of another child is worth it and more importantly if I want a 4th child. 3 sounds so good to me while 4 is undoubtedly overwhelming.

I deal with disappointment on a daily basis so right now I'm just hoping I'll get over it mostly but the time #3 is born. I doubt I'll get over it completely. And I hope you are doing ok. I know how crushing this can be.

I am actually doing ok ! This time is a lot easier than the last . And once I had my second daughter I fell instantly in love and we are very close . I think knowing how silly I was to be so disappointed the last time helped me through this time . But I totally understand how uncontrollable the feeling can be and hope it doesn't last too long for you! I have no anger towards the process either .. can't hurt to try ! Especially if you don't want to spend 20k ! Lol but that is all I am willing to do as well if we decide on a 4th. Honestly the money isn't even as much a factor for me as just having 4 children is ! Haha . I will have to see how I balance life with 3 first ! Message me anytime if you wanna talk :) seems we are in the same boats in a lot of areas ! Lol

Hello. How is everyone doing so far? Finally I have entered my third trimester (week 28) and counting the days until my due date. This pregnancy has been far more exhausting. Maybe it is because of my advanced maternal age (I am 42 years old) and has gotten 7 years older since I had my last son, or maybe it is because I am carrying a girl this time. I heard that with girls you feel more worn out, like rotten tomatoes, tired and queasy as opposed to when carrying boys you feel more sexy and energetic. I have gained 17 kilo (37 lb) which is also far more than with my previpous boys pregnancies. But I also let my self eat cake almost everyday. Baby is kicking and moving a lot both day and night, which makes me happy because then I know she is for sure a live. I hope everyone is doing great and having more energy than I have :-)

So cute!!!

Anatomy scan tomorrow. I know I should be over the moon about seeing my little one again but still struggling as I know tomorrow will be the day we find out for sure that it's a boy (I have been trying to convince myself that he is 100% boy but I am still holding on to a glimmer of hope). I have been feeling him move for weeks now and that helps a little but I can't get past the guilt of being sad that I won't get my chance to have a little girl. I feel like such a terrible person. Hopefully when I see him again tomorrow that will help. I still feel like a failure as it seems almost everyone else is getting their DG and I am surrounded by pigeon pairs at the moment at work and with family and friends without any of them even trying and it just seems so unfair. Sorry to have a whinge, just having a bad day but I am still so grateful to be pregnant and will be very relieved when I hear if my little man is healthy.
