TTC Blue Crew Grads

Hi girls, I've just spent the past 2 weeks camping. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and new years. I just booked my nt scan for Feb 11.... so very far away. I will be 12+6. That's the latest scan I've had, oh and I usually sneak in an early scan, so I'm doing well this time. My nipples are tender, my areola are huge, I'm putting on more weight than I want to, I'm tired and I look like I'm going through puberty with the pimples I have! I have no idea and will try not to bother guessing what flavour this one is because I'll just upset myself:-) actually I feel more happy this time if I have a girl. I just know that this will be the last, which is good for me coz I was always asking people when would I know if we are finished having kids...
Oh and we need a bigger car.... that's going to be a tough one financially for us. I really need to go to work more often:-) anyone in Australia have any recommendations.... I'll have 4 in car seats. I was thinking a Hyundai imax.
Anyway my littlest lady has just woken up..... I could hear her coming down the stairs singing about ballerinas!

Flava im so glad you are not feeling so depressed anymore, i know everyone was really worried about you.

I didn't agonize over the testing stage (actually only tested at about 25DPO as I was lucky to have strong preg symptoms super early) but it's killing me to know whether my blue sway has been successful or not.
I have three girls who are the loves of my life and if I did it all again I would want every one of them but this time I want a boy so very much.
So the silly question is...did anyone have any indications that their boy sway was successful before their scan? Any little symptoms, cravings, new aches, twinges, hairs, hungers, etc... that in hindsight you can now say, of course I should have known it was a boy. (See I warned you it was going to be a neurotic question).
My husband says he's never seen me so tired and my nipples are unbelievably sore (both different symptoms for me). I did convince myself last pregnancy is was a boy because I was so hungry all the time and she was all girl though so I know this proves nothing. Sigh...I hate waiting.

I was ALWAYS hungry, not sick at all, had terrible acne starting around 11 weeks like I was a teenager( higher testosterone) and had a very quick temper (still do now too!). I knew deep down bc of all these things combined he was a boy! Xx

I thi the acne is a really good sign for a boy, IMO! I had a TON of acne this go around...even on my back, and from what I read, testosterone production in baby boys starts around 10-11 weeks, which is also when I started getting the acne. Not trying to get your hopes up too much, but just telling you that was one of the big reasons I felt this was boy before I had my u/s :).

Haven't been on in ages but Yahmama, congrats on the baby boy :)

And Dloui, I missed the whole birth thing but can see you've had your precious little one ... congrats :awe: Honestly, I can't fathom what you all are experiencing but I imagine it to be pretty grand. xoxo :kiss:

Hey begonia! Where is that baby pic? I love to see some :bigsmile: How do you do?
Unfortunately not much goin on here...I have 5 kids and have to hold baby a lot so almost zero time and still can log on for a couple min. so no clue where is everyone else.
Im waiting for a baby news from elp lol

Hey everyone.
I think I'm growing a whopper of a baby this time...
Was lying down in bed last night and had a poke around my abdomen. Well I can already feel my uterus above my pubic bone and I am still a few days shy of 8 weeks. Given my last daughter was 9 pound 2 and caused 3rd degree tearing, it has me a little nervous, ha ha. Am dying of envy to all you clever ladies that successfully swayed blue...can't wait to find out if my last baby will indeed be a little boy. This waiting is so hard.
I wish there were symptoms that actually could tell you but to be honest, I've got enough friends that will swear you are more sick with a boy/girl, get more acne with a boy/girl, etc... that there really is no way.

luv-let's hope this baby will be smaller! When do you get a u/s?
