Shann - I agree with Pbn and others. And what Dreaming said. I bet they would already know and can tell you over the ph. Hugs.
Dreaming - I second what Lolla said. You just said something we all have been going through. I also care so much about what people say. In our families people actual show their pity if you get a girl let alone two. How bitchy is that?I don't want anyone to know. I don't want them to have that place in my life. Don't tell those who
Don't matter. Only the ones who can be happy for you.
Lolla - I missed you all too. It was fun but tiring. I am so glad to be bk home. Dd loved every minute of it. ❤️when is your next appointment?
I love the picture of the boys. They are the cutest.
Ash - Love your idea. Would you know on 11th? Or 22nd?
So, we told the friends that we went to vacation with and they were really happy for us.
Dh told his family last night over the ph and they were very Happy but the second sentence was about when we find out the gender and how they hope it's a boy. My heart just broke. They meant well but each one of them
Said the same thing. [emoji24] I really want to cry. I m so close to them and they know how badly I want to add a boy
To our family but why the added hopes and pressure? I haven't told my family yet but I have no excitement to tell them either. I know this is what we all want but hearing them
Say it out loud just crushed me. Dh tried to say something but didn't help. They are far too hopeful. I have to
tell my family today and I
Am not looking forward to that though I know they won't say nothing like this. I told mil that I don't want to
Find out. If dh does then they all
Need to keep
It to themselves.

Pbn - I tried to read a few pages but not all. Can u give me a quick update if possible? Pls.

Awww big hugs Sky ❤ even though you're expecting the comments it still stings when they're said. I'm not sure when having one of each gender mattered so much, especially to our families and friends?? It doesn't make any sense in the scheme of things does it?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
I know. I kept telling my mil that all that matters is a healthy baby at this time but it's like they don't hear anything apart from knowing the gender. I m not going to find out for sure now. I have a feeling it's going to be another girl. I m not in a happy place right now. And to tell my family today isn't what is going to help me.
Dh was so anti swaying but he realized last night that it's all anyone cares about. Too late.

I really needed to be here with my people. Why can the world not leave us alone?

Sure! I had my nuchal scan and my dates were 11w6d but bub is measuring 12w4d (so excellant growth as bub is definately not that gestation 😂) through out the scan I seen what looked like both boy and girl nubs but bub was flipping and flopping around so much was hard to tell which from which 😂 I wasn't planning on looking but its impossible not to see. Thankfully I'm still none the wiser and after a terrible 36 hours of indecision about finding out my nipt results weren't in anyway. So my mind is now fully committed again to staying green 💚 my nuchal scan results were great and have me in low risk for t21, 18 and 13. Just waiting on nipt to confirm all ok with those and some other syndromes they test for :) Then I can finally tell me boys and announce! Oh and here's a couple pics my ob printed off for me 😀https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...71aea66a03.jpgQuote:

Awww. That's music to my ears. I m soooooo Happy Pbn. Such a cute baby. This is amazing. Keep us posted whenever you get the nipt result. So relieved all other tests came back with good results. So many prayers are with this little miracle. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My next appointment is next Friday with nurse practitioner. They told me that she will do another u/s. And then I will see the OB in 4 weeks. They didnt book the OB appointment because the lady who was booking the appointment said the np will do another u/s and if all is ok then they will book the next appointment. I was actually scared why would she say that? Are they expecting anything to go wrong? I am not overthinking because that's not going to help me in anyway. Will see what happens next Friday which is July 14th.
I also have my test results coming in which are all ok so far. The only thing is that it keeps giving me a warning box that some tests may reveal the gender and if I don't want to know that then I should call for results not check online. None of the tests showed the gender so far and the from now on dh will check the results. [emoji4]he offered since I don't want to know.

I m team green. I will
Share the pics but don't tell me the gender pls. [emoji4]❤️
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2
No worries!! Might be best to just to post a pic that doesn't zhow anything at the bottom as I'd hate for one of us to slip up! Especially from a nub guess that may not be accurate :)

So a week till next appt and another chance to see bub 😀😀
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Sky try not to worry. This time around I had to go in for multiple scans because I was measuring behind and the last scan from last week showed Im now measuring ahead so my official due date was changed back. But that initial process was so nerve wracking like something was really wrong. But it wasn't, they just wanted to make sure they were dating correctly. Hang in there friend!

Thanks dreaming. I hope so too. It's just how they talk. They don't realize that they are sending a vulnerable person back home with more worries. [emoji854]

It's so true. And your feelings are totally valid. This process is such a rollercoaster that it's shocking how insensitive people can be who've gone through it themselves.

Sky-so exciting you have an appt next Friday!!! Mine is July 18th for genetics, but I don't think I'll have another U/S until Aug 4th, which seems so far away!!! I'm sorry about the comments. I'm feeling the same way so I can relate! That's all everyone seems to care about! It's either "I hope it's a girl" or "you're definitely having another boy" or just that I'm crazy for having a 3rd. I always say "yep, we're crazy & I love it!" I'm glad all of your tests are looking good! Maybe that gender disclaimer is on all of them, isn't it too early for those tests to know gender? My tests all came back normal, but my iron was low...not surprising since I was very anemic last pregnancy. That is not the best way for the booking lady to discuss making your next appt-maybe they just want the np to make the recommendation for when the next appt should be. My OB always wants to see me every 4 weeks in the beginning, but then in the past he recommended sooner based on my visit when I had high blood pressure and when I had placenta previa etc. I def wouldn't overthink it like you said! Everything is going to be great [emoji173] Wow, there's a few team greens In here now! [emoji172]I can't do it this time. The external factors are really getting to me...such as fam/co-workers using my favorite names plus I'm still on summer break, so I'd LOVE to do some girl nursery/clothes shopping while I have the time off if things go my way [emoji175]Or I could just shop for girl stuff anyway (Ashhh! 🤣) Ash, I hope & pray you get to keep all of your girl stuff! And I hope you have a dd with beautiful dark hair like yours with those gorgeous eyes like your boys!!
Shann-I like the idea of you calling your OB office to get gender results. Is that a possibility & would DH know?
Pbn-how was the kiddo movie date??

Lola thank you it was awesome 😀 I really enjoyed the movie mysel! We are meeting up again tomorrow at some truck/car family day at a raceway. Not really looking forward to all the noise 😂 but its fun for the boys, they love getting out and amongst it!
Dreaming everything you just said to sky 👌👍 bang on!!

Lolla - I really hope that you hear girl. How wonderful it would be if we all got what we wanted.❤️❤️ How I wish!!
I forgot to mention the good part. We told dd after coming back from our appointment. I wrote on a white board that I am going to be a big sister twice and in the last line I wrote her name and mentioned the month too. She got it when she read the first line and won't stop jumping. She asked us so many times if we are joking? ❤️❤️❤️
She is beyond thrilled. She doesn't stop talking about the baby. Tells her dad to not bug me because I have a baby in my tummy. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
She showed the more love, joy and excitement than the grown ups.

Pbn3 - Loving seeing all the pictures of your growing baby, and hearing all the details:bigsmile:This is our last and final night here in such an effortlessly beautiful place. It’s been so amazing! I do miss my own house and my own bed. I can’t wait to get home tomorrow even though it means getting back to reality:bigsmile:
On another note I have a question for whoever would love to chime in, but I've been on the hunt for an ObGyn. I found 2 who really sound incredible, but I'm torn. Number 1 is an amazing doctor! He’s one of the most recommended. I think its mostly because he's been around a while longer. The only down fall is people say "He's well worth the wait.” Even when you have an appointment time you will find yourself waiting at least 30 minutes more till he comes into your room. I also believe I heard he is not always at your delivery, and sometimes it's a midwife. Number 2 is also a great doctor. He isn't very popular, but he hasn't been around as long as number 1. He does have amazing reviews, just not as many as doctor 1. I think this is only because he’s new. He does deliver all his babies though. I think I'm torn because number 1 is so popular, but I don't like the fact that he doesn't attend all his births, and there is a wait even with your appointment times. Number 2 sounds pretty perfect, but his newness (not to his field, but the community) makes me a little hesitant:nails:

Omg sky!!!!!!. That brought tears to my eyes 😢😢😢 what a beautiful reaction!!!! I couldn't imagine anyone else's reaction you tell ever topping that. So beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hope so much my boys reaction will be similar!! Really cant wait to tell them now!!

Great to hear from you nacire! Personally I'd be going with number 2, the one that will be there for your delivery. Especially seeing as he has just as good as reviews as the 'known' one. The thing is you could set up an appt and if he doesn't seem 'right' to you then try and see the first one? I just know I'd be pretty peeved if I seen an obgyn for all my appt's but then not have them be present for the birth when they may be really needed.

I know Pbn. She just made me sooo happy that I was a crying mess. She wanted to tell all her friends and our friends on the trip and we let her. [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

Good luck, deep breath and brace yourself! I really hope they surprise you by showing just happiness that you're pregnant and dont even mention gender. Fx it goes well xxoo

Thank you so much Pbn3! I'm definitely feel number 2 sounds right for me. Your right I can always see how I feel when I meet him :)
Ok just got caught up.
Pbn, I do believe I'll have an NT scan around 12 weeks, but I don't think I'll be offered any bloodwork that lets me know gender. I got a good nub shot at the NT scan last time because I told the u/s lady that I had never been able to get a full body picture of my babies. TBH I think she knew about the nub theory because she got the perfect shot. Maybe I'll try that again this time.

Yes do that babypink!!! Great idea! If thetech is friendly enough maybe you can even ask to make sure the shot includes the nub.....😆

I spoke to my mom and sister in law and they were so sweet about it. They said whoever comes is welcomed with open arms in our family and gender doesn't matter. This coming from those who have all girls and just one boy in the family. I m happy that my family understands and loves the fact that I am pregnant more than anything else. My mom got so excited that she asked me to not tell my sisters because she wants to do that. I feel
Better after talking to them. [emoji4]They talked about all the fun stuff like knitting for the baby and shopping. I was so bummed due to the inlaws reaction yesterday.

I just checked the mail
From the doctor. All my tests are ok but My blood count is low. Any idea what that means. She didn't mention any action. Just asked me to go for a glucose tolerance test which they always do with me because of family history. [emoji51][emoji51] All came bk
Normal last time. Hopefully it stays the same this time too.

Ugh. Two nights in a row I've had a dream about my 20-week scan in which we find out the baby really is a boy after all, and we're so thrilled. Last night I had this dream once, woke up and rolled over, and dreamed it again. Isn't the saying that you have the opposite gender of your dreams? Ugh.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Kat. I am feeling better but just want to enjoy this pregnancy. With work I can't. It's hectic to work then see home and a baby :).
Lolla just a routine check-up and let see if she would do scan also.
Welcome back sky.
Sent from my ALE-L21 using Tapatalk
Sky if it was something to worry about they would be doing follow up tests. The term blood count seems vague? Does it say anything else?
Srg I cant wait until you confirm gender to put these dreams to rest. I honestly dont believe at all that our dreams predict anything, I think its more what issues/impressions we have floating around in our subconscious. Hence some people have nightmares after watching a particular movie, it obviously left an impression on the mind. Or after watching TWD (the walking dead) I've had a very, very nice dream about Daryl Dixon that was cut far too short by my waking up 😭😭😭 (I'm still not over it) How long until your 20 week scan?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Pbn- I totally agree about dreams. DH and I have been talking girl names and I'm mostly okay. Then I held my 7 month old nephew last night and I think that set off my dreams. My scan will be early August sometime.
