Thanks girls! Unfortunately, she didn't give me any pics at all this time! I go back on 4/10 for another scan. When I called my doc afterwards, they did tell me that it was too early to know for sure and if it still looked like a girl at the next u/s, they will redo the test or possibly do an amnio, which frankly scares me. But right now, I am just going with the fact that I heard boy and am very quickly falling in love with this little man inside me!
Welcome acason! We have quite the oopsie due date group! I have added you to the list.
Hope - yay for no MS! I have added you to the list too:)
Kelle - ughh...I hate that you are in limbo land and what a shock. I would def be going for an elective to get confirmation.
I had my first appointment at the high risk OB and have started monitoring my gestational diabetes. I was so freaked out b/c I read that ealry diabetes can cause birth defects with brain or heart so I talked to the dr and she said I didn't have to worry about that b/c my blood sugar wasn't that high. Thank god!!!! So, now I have started dieting and testing bllod sugar 4X a day. So far so good so hopefully I can maintain OK with just diet!
Welcome acason! I too have a oops 4th baby. My third was an oops too and was a girl so it can happen!! I really hope you have a girl!!
Hoping you really don't want morning sickness but I know what you mean about wanting it to know everything is okay with the pregnancy. So far I haven't had any either and it is putting me on edge. The only symptom I have at this point is a super good nose. I am BF so not sure if that has something to do with it?? I don't have a first ultrasound until April 8th which seems like a lifetime away!!
I'm so glad MS hasn't set in but usually my symptoms don't kick in until 6 weeks. We've got alot of baby #4's in this group! woohoo we love our babies haha
I am already mentally preparing that this one is another boy I just feel like it is.
We spent the night in the ER on sat with my 18month old who spiked a fever that went up to 105.8...so scary but he is much better now.
My biggest complaint is exhaustion and the cramping or stretching feeling already
Me too Tomgirl! It is so hard too b/c for some reason I have alot of ppl thinking girl and I just don't think it will be. My one friend swears by the HB wives tale (I have to say it did work for all 3 so far) and this baby has been 160 both times I have been to the dr. I don't really buy into it all but she really does so it is hard talking to her! I don't want her to get my hopes up or end up making her disappointed when I tell her it is a boy.
That was when I knew I had to be preggers! I had the pulling when I sneezed one time in bed before I tested and I was like 'what was that???' I've only felt that when I've been pregnant!! That's when panic set in lol
One thing that I noticed (symptom) in early pregnancy that was different with my girl than my boys is my boobs got huge right away. With the boys it was like they slowly got bigger over the coarse of the pregnancy so by the end I was wearing a D cup (I am normally a small B or large A) by the time my milk came in. With my girl I was a D cup buy the end of the first trimester. Everyone made comments and it was a little hard to cover up!!
I wish that happened to me for both reasons: having a girl and big boobs!!
Not happening here although I'm still breast feeding so I think that is hindering any potential growth!
I went for my 1st drs appt today and my dr said 'this is exciting' she's the sweetest and always knows what to say:) I need all the positive feedback I can get so I'm positive about it:) they of course are gunnin for a girl but she also said there's a good chance it's a boy:/
