No it wasn't Transvag. It is definitely more on the left side. I had o pains on the left when we dtd and usually they're on the right. I don't know if its truly intuition or wishful thinking but I do get the feeling this is a girl. We will see! I think I am going to do a private scan alone around 14 weeks. I don't want to keep my hopes up too long. Fingers X
Hi ladies! Just got out of my procedure. In ok physically but emotionally I'm sad! :(. I just find peace knowing my two angels are together watching over their brothers!
Cvd I am sorry you didn't hear girl but two boys are amazing together. My DS 1 and DS 2 are best friends and watching their relationship is amazing.
Congrats to all the new BFP's and maple on your twins.
Mum - glad you have one healthy baby cooking! Fx it's your girl!!!
Thanks so much ladies! Apologies I am on holiday for a week, so can't check in often. I am not sleeping well with so much going on in my head..
Mum23 - so so sorry to hear your sad update. You are having a real tough time. Big hugs XX
Sunflower - oh no! I'm sorry, I bet it's hard. So sad to hear this. Big hugs to you, look after yourself XX
Cvd - Your boy will be perfect, sorry you didn't hear girl, take time to absorb it. Hope DH is being good to you. XX
Sweet pea - yes such a shock, I'm still really nauseous and vomiting daily... Terrified of the thought of twins. Any advice and calming words appreciated, lol!
Will check in in a few days, take care until then ladies XX
Hi all. I hope everyone had as good a Christmas as was possible in your circumstances.
Sunflower I am so sorry for your losses
Mum23 sorry that you lost 1 baby and congratulations on having 1 healthy baby
Cvd sorry you didn't hear girl but 2 boys will be fantastic
Maple congrats on the identical twins. They are going to be so cute
Cvd - so sorry you didn't hear pink. But congrats on a healthy little boy.
Oh cvd... It's so hard I know. I thought my ds2 was a girl. :( the others are right though.. 2 boys together are pretty darn cute. They have a little buddy for life. It's the best consolation prize ever. :) xx
Sunflower, I'm glad it all went ok. I can't imagine how you must feel though. Sending hugs xx
Emmy, I'm sure everything is fine! Enjoy minimal nausea! ;)
I'm sooooo tired... I went to bed at 7.40pm and slept solidly until 3am at which point I woke for my ds2 an went back to sleep probably around 4ish til 5.45am. SO sleepy. :( all good signs though. ;) also! I found out yesterday my very good friend from high school (who I'm still close to) is pregnant too and due the day after me! Such great news!! :) never thought she'd have kids so it was a huge surprise! :)
Hope everyone else is doing well. :)
Cvd i'm sorry you didn't hear pink but huge congrats on a healthy little boy, your son will be so thrilled to have a brother.
Emmy if it helps any what little m/s i had didn't start until 7.5 weeks and then it was so mild i only knew it was there as i was looking for it. Fingers crossing it stays that way but i was told at 12 weeks (by cvs) that i was having a healthy little girl
Thank you everyone. Now I'm just more worried about people's comments. all along my mil has been such a downer so I know when we tell her she's going to have some snarky remark. No one knows we went today, I'm not sure if we should just tell everyone or keep pretending we think its a girl.
Sunflower I am so sorry. It makes me feel silly being upset when you just had to go through all that. I can't even imagine how you feel. My heart goes out to you and your fam. Xo.
Sorry you didn't hear pink cvd. But congrats on your healthy baby son. Don't feel guilty for having GD, it's very normal to realize that your dream of a daughter may never happen.
Sunflower, I'm so sorry you had to go through the loss of both your babies and also must be very emotional having a D & C. Wish I could take away some of your pain.
Mum23boys, hope things are getting a bit easier for you hun.
Sorry to hear you are vomiting daily Maple. Morning sickness is such an awful thing to go through and I really hope you start to feel better soon. I find when I get more rest I am less sick, but that's easier said then done with kids already I know.
Hope everyone else are doing okay.
Oh CVD, I'm sorry you didn't hear pink today. I know that other posters have said it but it's true-my boys share a very special relationship and I wouldn't want it any other way, they're best buds for life. Congrats on your son and thanks for updating.
Sorry you didn't hear girl. I know exactly how you feel. I was convinced DS2 was a girl. My pregnancy was so different and everyone kept telling me that I looked like I was "carrying" a girl. When the US tech told me we were having a boy I was in shock. I didn't even say anything I just punched my DH and told him this was his "fault"... the US tech looked at DH and said "you know she is right" so everyone had a good laugh but as soon as the US was over I cried in the elevator. I then had to go to work where everyone was waiting for me and I had to publicly announce I was having a boy. I don't think you should tell anyone what you are having until you have really dealt with your feelings about it. People will say stupid things and you need to be in a state of mind to be able to shrug them off.
As far as you DH getting a vasectomy I think you should wait until your youngest is a couple of years old. The only worse than getting a vasectomy is getting a reversal. I thought I wouldn't want anymore kids. I really didn't picture my life with anymore than two kids. Everything seems to be made for a "family of four". But as time passed I found myself wanting a 3rd baby (even if it is another boy).
You are going to love the relationship your two boys will have. It is really fun watching my two play and seeing how they due truly love (and love to fight) with each other. I love having two boys... I just also want a girl:)
p.s. Would love to see some pics of that cute boy of yours, if you're up to sharing!
Here he is :). We did some baby clothes shopping after - it didn't bother me much to see the girl stuff. We are looking at names now. I have a feeling this is going to be a tough pick lol Attachment 7547
Sorry it's not good quality. I took a pic with my phone. I only got 1 since we just chose a basic package. We're going back at 28 weeks for the full thing when his features are developed :) we had the hardest time choosing a picture. He literally was posing for us the whole time, he kept changing his position. So ACTIVE!
Hehe I had to chuckle because when we got into the car I told DH it was his fault too lol. I am feeling better about it I think. We went baby clothes shopping after and it didn't seem to bother me to see the girl stuff! I had a really good bawl in the car but I think I got it all out. And thanks for your input about the vasectomy, we will worry/discuss it more after the baby comes not making any set in stone decisions yet :)
I think I read somewhere where you are 22 and your DH is 26... you two have a long long time and I know right now you are chasing around a little one and having another one and the next few years are going to be a little crazy with two little ones but wait until you have a 8 year old and a 10 year old and all your friends are having babies... you might just get the baby itch again:)
I want to thank all of you for your support, thoughts, prayers and kind words. I'm having a bit of a disbelief moment or moments with all that happened over the last two weeks. I would love to continue to follow all of your journeys bc I really feel a part if this group. Hope you call don't mind if hang out here? Look forward to all your updates! 😊
Definitely welcome to stay on this thread Sunflower and I know I speak for everyone when I say that. We'd love to hear how you are going and for you to share in our journeys. You're so welcome here.
Absolutely, Sunflower! I'm sure we'd all love you to stick around with us :)
Yes! Sunflower stay! :)
I'm so sorry for the loss of your babies Sunflower :( Life is so cruel sometimes, we have certainly had alot of bad news on here lately, it makes me very sad :(
Congrats on the twins Maple :)
Congrats on your beautiful healthy baby boy CVD - he is adorable!! So round and button like - mine always look like aliens in 3D pics!!
I've been hanging low too, feeling pretty crap, just this all day sort of sickness and tiredness, i feel so guilty that my other 3 children are getting neglected on their school holidays, thank god for my husband :)
Happy New year xx
cvd, I am sorry you didn't hear pink but your little boy is so cute in the photo. I hope you are doing OK. You are so young don't make any big decisions just yet. I am 38, my DH 42. I wish we had started so much earlier. I thought I only wanted one so was happy to wait. Now pregnant with our second, but now would love 3. Our ages will definitely make this our last. You still have so much time ahead of you.

Sunflower, I really feel for you. Lots of hugs
Morning ladies how are we all ? Sunflower definately STAY !!!
I just found out that the lady who did my private scan offers super early gender scans from 12 weeks which i assume is based on the nub theory - she said 14-15 weeks isnt ideal she does ether 12 weeks or from 16 weeks onwards.
She claims 95% accuracy at 12 weeks and 100% at 16 weeks.
Am soooooo tempted to finf out at 12 weeks !!! arrrrrrrr - Hubby would never agree.
Cvd so sorry you didn't hear pink babe. Your little boy will be well loved.
Sunflower stay and hang with me.
Mum23... Go on go :) I'm desperate to hear pink from you!
Glad to hear everyone had a good Christmas. Mine has gone from really bad to horrendous as we found out yesterday DH's mum has had a stroke! I can't wait for 2013!
OH BOO !!! Is she ok ?
The 12 week scan is super expensive at £150 its then £120 at 16 weeks but she is a specialist. bigger companies like baby bond operate near me too and they scan from 16 weeks and only charge £80 so it is alot more money to go private with her than a bigger company but i have never heard of anyone else doing sexing from 12 weeks and I really would love to know. Maybe ill wait for my 11+5 scan with the NHS on 22nd jan first - see if i see a nub and take it from there if i suspect boy i think id rather not find out but if it looks girly i will have to find out to stop me building up my hopes !!!
Thanks ladies. Ill stick around.
3boys - I feel like you. Found out yesterday after my procedure that my best friends father died suddenly yesterday morning. Roll on 2013!!!!!!!!
Not really. Major bleeding to the brain, she is unconscious at the moment. It is truly awful.
My 12 week scan was 95% accurate and was indeed correct. We paid £130 but again he was a specialist. I thought I saw a boy nub at 12 weeks exactly which is why I booked him four days later as I wanted to know for sure. I'm so glad I did as I have a DVD of him alive to keep. I can't face watching it now but I'm so glad I have some footage of his heart beating!
Praying for your family 3boys!
Sunflower - definitely stay x
3boys - am so so sorry - am really wishing or a wonderful 2013 for you x
CVD - am so sorry you didn't hear pink but your baby is very cute - don't do anything rash with the big v you are both still so so young x
Sunflower we would love for you to stay as long as you want to. It is really about the support that we all give to each other and you have definitely done that so you belong here! We want to be here for you and when you do decide to take this journey again we will be right here waiting in the wing :-)
