TTC Blue Crew Grads

B- it's not about the romantic notion of a mother son relationship, it's about the relationship you were going to create. Neither dh or I have the kind of relationships we want with our parents, we are determined to have them with our kids. That what hurts to let go of.

Oh you know I'll be posting pics of my 4 as soon as possible. They all want to be at the birth and I'll have my iPhone in the hospital so pics will be everywhere 5 minutes after he's clean lol
DD1 has completely come around, every morning she kisses my belly and tells the baby she loves him. They all picked out and tied him a fleece blanket and she's told all her friends about him. I knew she'd get here, but for a child that doesn't always accept change well it happened faster then we'd thought.
I so understand the unfair feeling, i swear everything you say is exactly what I felt w/dd3. Believe me hun it gets so much better and just wait till your girls know it's another sister, they will help you be excited :)

Hi all! Joining this group! Just got my bfp on monday! I am beyond pumped!

Welcome and congrats again! Now go get a ticker :wink:

sir yes sir.

We are big time stalkers here lol We gotta know how far along you are and when that u/s is lol

:wave:Welcome tink- I had a feeling you would get your BFP quite quick :) Congats hope it is a sticky one! look forward to chatting to you- are you planning on finding out gender or waiting?

3pink- glad your DD came around to the idea of a little brother so quick- she probably saw how happy you were and couldn't help but be excited too :)

Foxy- great idea regarding the 4d scan- hadn't thought of that might do it to help me bond too :)

Babydes- hugs honey- I feel for you ATM all the mixed emotions xoxo

I go to the doctor on the 28th at 10:30 AM. I am really excited to go. I had my numbers tested 13 dpo was 177. Going again tomorrow hoping the numbers are good.

Thanks- but I was 13+1, so probably still out! Were you closer to 12 or 13 at that point? You are right though- nothing until the big scan. I am not longing for a son for myself, I like girls, but for my hubby. He was 1 out of many sons and they are all great brothers. All athletic, smart, great men. So I want to imitate that, but I also fear that any son I have won't live up to that expectation either.

Again, I am here to remind everyone to not let comparison rob you of your joy of your newest dd! Regardless of what other people have, it won't change your situation and I think it is better to focus on the sweet gift you have!

Hiya ladies, just checking in! I am feeling fat!!! My stomach is literally hanging, its embarassing!!!!!! DH keeps looking at me sideways and cautiously saying 'My baby is showing now, isn't it?' To which I answer 'No, the babies still tiny, I'm just a big Munta!!!' :rofl: never mind eh!!! My scan is on the 25th of this month, and between us here, I think I will find out who's in there! I've never asked before, but for swaying purposes theres no point me giving advice to people if I don't know what I'm having is there! SO we will see, I may chicken out at the last minute though, flamin coward lol:bigsmile:

Spicy- great advice!

ELP- at 17 weeks with #9 I'm sure there is quite a bit of baby belly there. I felt the same way about the sway advice, I kept my mouth shut till I knew I had something to offer. I too wanted to be able to say what I did that did/didn't work. You gotta find out we're dying here lol
