Do't blame me if I'm completely wrong and ignore following ;) So what I remember helped them was eating soups and yoghurt for the beginning. Especially creamy vegetable (carrot, squash,...you can use every veg) soups are nutrient rich but easy on stomaches that are not used to eating. - And also kids eat it because they can't see the veggies haha. And drink A LOT (water, tea,..). Try to get a small and healthy breakfast in. Snack on all kinds of fruits whenever you want/can. Work your way to normal size meals (3-5 per day) over few weeks. That depends, I think you don't have to "learn" eating like people with eating disorders where this process would take 10 or more weeks. - only a few suggestions...

I think atomic can give you better directions and lead you through this. I can imagine she has helped a lot of women after a pink sway.

Try not to let comments get to you too much. I get a lot of "looks" with my 3 girls and my husband even got condolences expressed... :mad: it's really annoying and hurts, but we really should not worry about some dumb and careless people.

Ok, last but not least I'm sending heaps of pink dust your way! hoping this is your baby girl!

Thank you! Such great advice. Bought a few organic soups and I'm going to try exactly that starting the morn. I will make sure to eat early too. Thanks :)

I’ve been off of here because it’s hard to read the success stories. I’m happy that others got what they want but reading through the last 5-10 pages has been so hard to remember that I worked so hard for what I will never have. The GD threads on here are dead. So I guess that’s why I’m posting here. Should probably stay off of here.

@thinkingofthree - I can only imagine it would be very difficult to read others success stories and its understandable you've been taking a break. But please know that no matter what you are feeling, its safe to talk about it here. we are here if you ever want to vent or chat about what your going through xo

Hey. I'm new here and literally just poas. I didn't read any of your posts but I'm sorry you are suffering from GD. I know it well. After my first two boys I wanted a girl. 5 boys later, and 2 MC, I'm here trying one last time. I really gave my sway everything I had. But im not holding my breath. I already accepted that I will probably have 6 boys and I hope I am wrong. After so many why would I think it would be different. I swayed and I prayed and obviously the answer was no. This time I gave it one more shot. I'm still praying even though sex was determined already. And my siblings all have both boys and girls and so its lonely and hard. But know there is nothing wrong with how you feel, I've faced it a few times over. I hope you can find the strength to love the plan even if it wasn't your own. And if you can't read these things, than trust your gut and occupy your time with things that bring you joy. Hugs from a GD mom

Thank you. I greatly appreciate your words, especially - “I hope you can find the strength to love the plan even if it wasn’t your own.” This is great advice and definitely something I’ll strive for.

Hi Thinking,

I have never actually talked to you directly but I've seen you posting around. From what I gather, you had a failed sway, is that correct? If so, I did too and am completely understanding of how you feel. A few ladies in my due date group actually have failed sways, if you are comfortable please come over and vent or whatever you need to do with us (I love my due date group ladies. We are Jan, Feb, and March). Please feel free to PM too!

I just wanted to reach out and let you know you aren't alone and there are others who know exactly the pain you are feeling.

I layed there for like 5 minutes while he unsuccessfully looked for the HB, and then he set up the portable US machine again. But this time I couldnt even see the screen :( so I had to wait what felt like an eternity (probably only a minute or so) before he made any comment at all!!! and then he suddenly says "so its moving around in there just fine" *omg DEEEP BREATHE!!!!!!!!* I was honestly expecting him to say he was unable to find a HB, but yea, he still decided to send me to get a proper scan done tomorrow because of the pink discharge anyways... so I feel like an emotional wreck :worry:
I know the Dr saw the baby move on the US but I am so scared about the US tomorrow... I just hate the waiting and the stress of it all... I wish I could feel bub move so I could have my own reassurance :awe:

Hey missiz,

I agree with you - i wish i could feel the baby move too !!!

how did the US go?

Anyone have prenatal recommendations? I need to order.

@jgojah - the ultrasound went well, the baby is healthy and happy as far as they can tell. They found a small bleed on the wall of my uterus that they think may have been the source of the blood but they werent worried about it because it was a small one. So I am grateful everything is ok, just breathing a sigh of relief right now.

@Mom25boys - I use the Blackmores Pregnancy and Breast-Feeding Gold, I find it pretty good.

Hi Thinkingofthree. I had a failed sway too. Actually this is my second failed sway. GD is definitely something you can talk about here if you want to. I feel happy that many others' sways worked, and it is hard to start to come to terms with the fact that I will never have a daughter. Today I found myself thinking, "well maybe we can adopt one..." but that is beyond remotely possible with the other factors in my life.
