Anyone else come on here daily because you can't talk to real life people about your pregnancy yet?

Me too dh is from a HUGE line of boys like somewhere in the last 30 births there is 1 girl his dad had only brothers his grandad only had brothers - it goes on an on way back. My mum and dad on the other hand only have girls !!

I am going to mail it with a poem that ends with something about not calling until you only have positive things to say.

Hey i like that - dpn't forget to post it so we can copyright you.

I'm not telling any time soon - am starting to get a bit of a tummy though. Shame i can't keeping denying it and then when the baby pops out be like oh yes you were right maybe i was pregnant. I didn't tell last time til i was 16 weeks although i'm not sure if that made my mom worse or not with the comments but going to at least wait til i've dealt with a bit of my gd and morning sickness - i really don't feel up to battling anyone else yet

To be honest i have told everyone with ds3 as i didn't want the oh maybe to have to deal with once i knew and it was worst than them not knowing with ds2, people were down right rude at times and like oh dear poor you or you should have expected that really or i'm so sorry, three boys what luck. Really what you don't need when you have gd - i HATE people they can be so insensitive and cruel

I have been lucky and have not gotten a single rude comment about 3 boys. I'm sure it will come once he is born though.

Just wanted to say...GORGEOUS family Violet, you're a lucky lady!
