Rude bitch!! x x x
ARGH...how rude, but believe me i cant believe how many people are so nasty and dont think before they speak...the comments hurt people and they just dont care! Im getting tired of the silly comments already and he isnt even here yet :(
I have recently had a few GD moments and get upset but im trying to stay strong. Doesn't help that i keep dreaming that when i deliver this baby its actually a girl! I have been around a few babies recently and all mostly girls and then my friend whom already has a little girl gave birth to her team green baby and she got her boy...so she got her pp and i got so jealous. I know i will love baby charlie but i just feel like...why cant i have a girl??!! I really dont think i can let go of my dream of a girl!!!
Well we had a lovely weekend away, at sister in laws wedding and the boys looked so amazing in their page boy outfits and where little treasures...they were great and got lots of attention and i cant wait to see the professional pics and the video that was done.
Enough of me, so sorry some of you ladies are itchy sounds nasty!
Cant believe some of the babies are due very soon and wont be long till we start popping them out, so exciting! Are you already ladies? Are all your birth plans sorted? I feel so unprepared at the moment...i think i want a homebirth but the class to get info is only 15th Sept and i feel like it is late to get info then make our decision. I like to be organised and i feel totally like i still dont know anything and dont like it.
I got a dr appt next week and I'll ask him about when we're going to schedule the C-section. Atm, my husband and I are leaning towards Sept. 14th (it's a friday) because her due date is the 16th (sunday) and of course my OB won't let me have her on my due date for a scheduled section. Still, my preferred date is the 18th for some reason but that's 2 days overdue and I really doubt he'll let me schedule a c-section 2 days past time.
The guys did not full fix our house yet...as matter of fact, the floor guy broke our fridge's ice maker and put two dents on the door, and also scraped the fridge across the kitchen's entry molding aroudn the door ...so they got some shit to fix...grr so frustrating! There was sawdust all over the new floors (like light covering, hard to see but can feel with bare feet), and also the dishwasher was reinstalled but not working yet, there is a huge hole in our kitchen where our old duct used to be, and the dryer is not hooked up yet...so they still got a ton of work to do, and my DH is so pissed atm at their shoddy work...while I'm annoyed, for some reason, it doesn't make me as mad as it did him....I guess I figure they'll have to fix it before we give them the check...our insuracne company mailed us a check to give to them, and I'm not giving them a check until it is 120% to my satisifaction!! There are some other issues too like when you use the kitchen sink the hot water heater makes very bizarre noise it's never made before, the 1/2 toilet runs after you flush, etc, etc...I just have hope that all will be fixed and won't be a worry in the long run.
so I am still waiting with baited breath to get down n dirty with my nesting!
and mocha, I agree....there would've been nothing wrong with 4 boys. That was my biggest issue really with this preg before I knew she was a girl was the feeling that I'd let everyone down if it was another boy, and that is so stupid, really. But I just felt all this pressure that she had to be a girl...i should have just thought 'screw' everyone else! It's my family and I'll love and treasure any child of mine, even more boys!
auroa i too would be holding onto the cheque until i was fully satisfied with all the work done! I too would not be impressed with the shoddy work. Hopefully it will be all done for you soon then you can get down to nesting.
Wow it really isnt long now before you will get to meet you little girl. Hope you agree on a date for your c-section.
I do feel the way you felt before you knew she was a girl, i really feel i have let people down and i know that is stupid. This is my family and what other people think should not bother me, but it does. DH has been great and even though he would have liked a girl he is happy with another boy and he tells me to ignore other people and their stupid commets.
My mum has been great tho, she knows how much i wanted a girl and she has been very supportive and has been on a mission with me to find clothes for him that aren't just blue. Then i have my nan, whom also knew how much i wanted a girl and she says stuff like, 'oh it would have been lovely if you had a girl you could have bought her such cute clothes.' She also bought a blue sleepsuit and said 'oh but the place i got this from had such lovely stuff for girls, pity your not having a girl'
I feel like no one will be bothered about making a fuss over him because he is another boy. I know it wont be the case with everyone but it just feels like it. He will be precious and treasured by us and i know his brothers will love him lots...the talk to him now and give him kisses and i know that will continue.
I often wonder if i would have GD at all if it wasnt for other people?! :sigh:
Happylea, Your boys sound perfect. I would love to see some of the pictures from the wedding if you feel like posting them! I am sure your nan isn't trying to be hurtful, but it is too bad that she makes comments like that. :( You are so, so lucky to be having another boy. I think 4 boys would be the best!
Auroara, I can't believe the contractors are doing such a shoddy job on your house! My husband is a carpenter and he would NEVER ruin people's appliances, etc. He is really careful. I definitely would not pay them until everything is completely as it should be!
I went to the dr. yesterday and told him I was still itchy, and he said they could test me again, so I am waiting until my next appt in 2 weeks. He did say that there is nothing they can do about it even if it is positive, but I was under the impression the baby needs to be out by 37 weeks. But he said that wasn't always true? I am not sure what to do if he doesn't want to take the baby early if the results of the test are positive--everything I have read says that the baby needs to be out to avoid stillbirth!
I agree, HappyLea - I feel like much of my GD came from external sources. Little comments people would always say without thinking, the looks of pity I got when going around with my 3 boys, and the general preference for girls here in North America. People really need to mind their own business and stop imposing their opinions on OUR families. Your little guy is the perfect addition to YOUR family - your 4 boys are going to have such fun growing up together, and there are many women out there who will envy you your family of princes.
Hope this works, here are a few pics from the wedding. Cant wait to see the professional ones as he managed to get all 3 boys together...much more successful than our attempts :rofl:

They look soooo adorable in those outfits, HappyLea!
Thanks hobbers. Sorry if the pics are too big. I cant wait to see the professional ones, hopefully there will be a good one of all 3 that i can have made into a canvas.
I hope that you get some answers about your itching soon. If it is positive would they increase monitoring you if there is a higher chance of stillbirth?
Mocha you are totally right, i just wish the silly people whom make the silly comments and looks would think before they open their traps. Its OUR families they are putting down/insulting and im sure they wouldnt like it if i was to say something about their families. The difference is i wouldnt do it and would have more respect for others and their families.
I know Charlie will fit into our family so well and like now i see Olly copying the older 2 and joining in its just so so cute. Im sure in many many years to come my little princes will give me lots of grandchildren to spoil also :D
Thanks Mocha xQuote:

Your newest little boy will fit right in with your other 3, I am sure, and will be just as gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your pictures.:)
I am not sure what they do if the test is positive--Pinkin would know better, since she has been through this before. The whole thing really worries me! :nails:
Hobb if your test is positive then you will be induced between 37 and 38 weeks because bubs can be at a higher risk towards full term. I know how you are feeling I am a total mess ATM. I have woken up so itchy again my palms are driving me nuts. I find if I eat food with no fat in it I am not as itchy. I made home made pizza last night with low fat cheese and cut all the fat off the bacon and I have woken up SO ITCHY! My d/h has been away all week he left sat and comes back friday night I just feel like I am going a bit nutty. There is nothing that can be done for me right at this point.
HappyLea I know what you mean about feeling like you have let everyone down because I feel the exact same way, I already have those vibes that no one really has an interest in me or the baby because its another boy. My mum has not much to do with me at all she doesnt even ask me how I am comment on my tummy growing she doesnt even really know my due date! And there she is going on about how I should have this baby and try pretty quick for another one using the cut off method because she knows woman it has worked for and I am like JUST SHUT UP!!!!! I havent even had him yet I hate that people can pretend like he is nothing , I want to enjoy him and I do and will love him and teach him things and then maybe think about another one. Gosh I just cant get over that I have a beautiful baby boy on his way and he deserves the best, Just because I cant dress him in pink doesnt mean he isnt here!
I havent even read over what I have typed I hope I make sense.. Sorry!
pinkin, the Dr I saw yesterday didn't seem to think induction was totally necessary, which worries me! He said he would test me again to see if I am positive (the last test was negative), but that there wasn't much they did besides try to make me comfortable. I told him what I had read online, and he said induction wasn't really necessary unless there was some other complication....? I figured I will get tested in another 2 weeks and see, and then go from there. If he doesn't want to induce, I don't know what I will do?
I'm sorry your mom is so rude about your baby boy! He deserves to be loved and cherished just as much as any baby girl. Your mom is being really insensitive! I think you are so lucky to be having a baby boy!!
hmmm Its such a hard one because when I was preg with ds1I didnt get this until id say 32 weeks and I just thought it was normal and didnt metion it until my 37th week app. I was induced at 38 weeks but at that stage my test results were not right my bile level was high and i am pretty sure my liver function test was not normal either I also had right side pain just under ribs. Just after giving birth I had a 700ml bleed which is another sign of icp so I had a fair few signs at the time I really should of told them earlier.
This time around I hope they will induce me at 38 weeks again which I am sure they will but I am seeing a different ob this time so I hope she wont let me go too long. My results were neg too gong back 3 weeks ago Id like to know what they are now, I dont see my ob until the 23rd so few more days to hold out.
Being this itchy is not normal, do you find it worse if you eat fatty food?
Pinkin - I'm sorry people aren't giving your little boy the attention he deserves. That happened with ds3 too - no one bothered to buy him clothes or anything since I already had lots, but it still would have been nice to have him celebrated a bit more.
And one of my biggest pet peeves is when people who know nothing about real swaying give you advice on how to get your girl. Like it's as easy as just having a cut-off and you're guaranteed your desired gender.
yes she has NO idea! She makes me so angry. My mum has had boys and girls and does not realise that it can be hard work for some to get to experiecnce the opposite gender. She should be over the moon with another grandson anyway.... But I know she wants a granddaughter she has told me over and over , oh well my brother and his GF are due in march next year maybe they can give her a grand daughter.... Even if I did have a girl wouldnt change things with me and my mum so I dont really care
Do any of you girls know any good web sites where I can buy nice baby boy clothes and blankets?

Sorry if it is around wrong way I am shocking with computers and phones!!!

Pinkin, you are tiny! You look great! I love Gymboree for baby clothes, but I am not sure they ship overseas (aren't you in the UK?).
I eat fatty crap all the time, so I don't know if that makes a difference in the itching, because I would have to eat non-fat food for a while and compare. It isn't a constant itch for me. It comes and goes. The thing that bothers me is that it is the palms of my hands, since that is a part of my body that doesn't usually itch, and it is a major ICP symptom. I hope you get your Dr. to induce you early!
yeah my itch is not there all the time either , I notice it more so in the morning when I wake up and at night time. I def find when I eat fatty food it is 100 times worse! I am going to put myself on a no junk food diet now because I cant handle it and I also feel so yuck in my tummy atm.
Thanks for the nice words about my pic but i feel awful. And just all round yuck ! My boobs are horrid my nipples are red brown and just plain ugly!!! winge winge glad d/h hasnt been here for the week because I dont want to be touched at all!!!!!
Pinkin you are teeny tiny! I am sure my tummy was that size at more like 12 weeks!! Mine is so big now that I worry what it will be like at the end. Sorry you are having such a crappy week. Between the itching that you and Hobber have, the rude comments just about everyone has had to listen to, Mocha's dad passing, and Auroara's re-do on her house, I think everyone is holding it together pretty darn well!
HappyLea, your photos are adorable. I am sure the professional photographer will have got some fantastic images with such gorgeous boys to work with.
peony, how are you holding up? Is everyone well at your house? It seems like you had quite a run of sickness there for a while.
Peony , Not teeny Tiny I am measuring ahead by 2 weeks!!!
Well you sure carry your babies well! Have you thought of names yet Miss Pinkin?Quote:

Well Oliver may not be teeny tiny, but he is hiding away very well- you look fab Pinkin!
Hobber, bless you for asking. I have a rotten cough at the moment. It has been weird as I didn't first get a cold, just straight to a chesty cough for the past 3 days. Probably picked it up at DS2s child care or preschool- there are always plenty of kids coughing there. No doubt it will go away soon and thankfully everyone else is now healthy.
I am 27 weeks today, so finally entering the 3rd trimester that so many of you have been in for ages. Kind of a celebration...but I know what is ahead so will also miss the easiness of the 2nd trimester. I have booked a facial and pregnancy massage (finally found someone). I plan on treating myself to some pampering as, like all of us, we are always so busy looking after everyone else.
thanks Peony!
ButterFly , we have picked Oliver
If I was to measure myself with a tape how do I do it? do I do it from the top of my pubic bone ???
top of your pelvic bone to top of uterus :) it can be harder to do yourself though x
I measured it and got 30.. Not sure if i did it right tho
OMG Pinkin you look fabulous!!! you are so tiny it is the cutest bump ever! I think I was that big the moment I peed on the stick :rofl: I am going to have to measure myself and see what I am, the dr never tells me just says I am measuring ahead
Thanks Dloui128.
Becasue you measure ahead were your prev babies big?
Both my girls were just shy of 9lbs, I am assuming this little guy is going to be around the same if not biggerQuote:

Do you always measure on time hobb?
My first ds was 3180kg when he was born, They never really even measured me when I was preg with him.
If it weren't for the moms of the world what would happen after a kid poops in the tub? DH was ready to call in a Hazmat team tonight and has now vowed never to take a bath in there again. Meanwhile I was in there fishing out the poop with my bare hands then scrubbing the tub and all the toys with bleach afterwards. I guess little grosses me out since I'm used to swishing poopy cloth diapers in the toilet then wringing them out :rofl:.
I usually measure correctly from what I remember. How many kg was your son, pinkin? I tried to do the conversion to pounds but it was something like 7000. I must have done it wrong! :rofl:
ha ha oh geeze no!!!
he was 3.180kg so just over 3 kg
Awww, Pinkin, your tummy is so cute. :) My super-short waist at 31 weeks is entirely filled out and looking uncomfortable, even to other people! I'm to the point now where I don't want to bend over to pick things up and I just grab stuff off the floor with my toes. LOL. I'm still wearing my yoga pants pretty much every day!
OH! And nursing bra update - I am in LOVE with the Bravado line. I have the Body Silk Seamless and the Allure underwire and they are both feeling great. I know I'll have to go up to the F/G in the underwire once my milk actually comes in, though... :P
Hobb, I found this site its really good.
