My mom always knew on all of mine. Even when I didn’t want to hear her, she knew. LolQuote:

I think when you have one gender the majority of people seem to automatically think you want the opposite gender so they are mostly saying what they reckon you most want to hear. Or at least that has been my experience. Everyone said girl on my first, except my SIL. Everyone said girl on my second except me. And everyone said girl on my third except my mom and DH.Quote:

This time around my mom is saying girl. But I'm being cautious about that one. EVERYONE around me is saying girl because I am nauseous. I had a unicorn pregnancy with my son with literally zero syptoms.
It can be so frustrating hearing people make assumptions just based on wives tales. that seems to be the majority of my situation.

I completely understand why that email would have upset you! I felt that way with DS2 when we were told he was probably not going to make it and I kept seeing people around my due date posting their announcements. It was really hard. Very unnecessary to email someone who purposely took themselves off fb.Quote:

With DS2 most people guessed girl. But I think they were just like- well you have a boy now so must be a girl.

I got a few girl guesses with DS2 - but like hopper said I think it's because we already had one boy and some people knew we wanted a girl. Also I started off sicker with him than with DS1. But nope - they were wrong :)
See, I don't think it's at all because of people thinking that for me though! DH is actually a very vocal "girl dad" and is pretty notorious for how bonded he is with DD, and I'm extremely private about my GD. I even actually had a lot of people say, "I sense a sister for your DD" when I was pregnant with my third pregnancy (and these people didn't even know I was pregnant!). And funny your moms seemed to be right more often that not -- my mom was adamant DD was a boy. Then after she was born said, "You know, this week I thought, 'Maybe it's a girl.'" Even my sisters gave her a hard time since she was clearly trying to save face for being wrong! But maybe my MIL's is more on? I hope so...
Had a bit of a sad twinge even about the OWTs. I had someone say, "My mother's way was the surefire way. The moon phase during your DD's birth will determine what the next one is," and I said, "I don't think that works for us since we've had several pregnancies in between..."
If my mom had a feeling about what we were carrying the first two times she never told me about it - and she seemed generally surprised each time we said “boy” - LOL! This time she admitted she thought it was two girls - so not correct there! :)
Isn’t your anatomy scan this week?

Hi ladies, I had a scan today.. was so nervous going in. Bub is measuring perfectly! It was such a relief to see a baby of the correct size for gestation on the screen and of course the flutter of the heartbeat. Also had my bloods taken for the nipt test. Fingers crossed everything comes back ok.
I hope everyone is feel ok today

Yup, tomorrow. Some pretty heavy shit has happened this weekend between DH and me. Having a hard time figuring out if that's changed my plans for the scan...Quote:

Good luck today Surrounded! Can’t wait to see pictures and to hear what your having!!
I have had a hard weekend and spent much of it in bed. It’s so smoky here due to forest fires and it’s making me so sick with headaches/nausea/congestion! I’m hoping it clears up soon and the fires stop. How was everyone else’s weekend?
:heart: Adorable!Quote:

As for the gender guesses, there was 50/50 for DS1, and I said boy. DS2 mas girl votes, with me being the only one who said boy. Matches with this one where everyone says girl but Im getting a boy vibe again.
I hope you hear girl :fingers: but if not we are all here for you to vent to!
So excited, Surrounded! Can't wait to hear what you are having!Quote:

Oh gosh SBB, I’m so sorry you didnt hear pink! I totally was thinking that was a girly nub too. More than anything I hope you have peace and joy and a healthy blue bundle!
Oh Surrounded I've been checking in today to see what you were having. I'm sorry you didn't here girl. I hope the baby is healthy and you're doing okay.

My mother is in denial, she keeps saying we will see, they could be wrong. Im sitting here like... there is ZERO doubts mom, do you not see the size of that haha I saw it the moment she went between the legs. At 15 weeks if its this obvious!

So true SBB! I’m glad he wasn’t shy and you know for sure now!!

That is definitely an obvious boy bit! I’m sorry you didn’t hear girl but I’m sure he will be the sweetest little man and that all 3 boys will be thick as thieves growing up :)Quote:

I’m bump size obsessing ladies! I feel huge for 15 weeks, but then I look online at 15 week bump shots (twins and singletons) and this seems pretty average - bigger than some, smaller than others! I certainly don’t think I looked like this at this point with the first two but who knows - didn’t take a lot of photos then and my memory sucks! What’s bugging me more is I feel like I’m gaining weight in my legs/ thighs too. Ugh.
My next ultrasound is next Tuesday and I’m feeling super anxious again about if they are still ok. I hate not being able to feel them move yet! ☹️
Anyone else have bumps to show? :)

Your bump is so cute ABC! No real bump here yet, still looking bloated/chubby at 15 weeks too. I wish I could feel my little one too, but I think it might be awhile with an anterior placenta. You should start feeling them soon though, especially with 2 in there!
Omg ABC! I love your cute little bump! You are precious! And if it makes you feel any better, you are much smaller than a lady I know who was bigger than you at that week and had only one! Everybody has a different body type! And when people ask if your carrying twins your answer really is YES!Quote:

He wasn't shy at all. And I completely understand what you mean about trying to go look at boy clothes. I did that when I found out I was having a son. Went to Target, the girl's section was massive, and the boy's was so tiny. But! Target does have some wonderful stuff online if your local store isn't great, Old Navy, Gap, and Carter's all have super cute boy stuff too!Quote:

What an adorable bump!! I’m huge! Everywhere! LOL, hubby has been gaining too and asking if there’s a men’s maternity section:giggle:
Both of mine have anterior placentas too :(. I had anterior with DS2 as well and didn’t really start feeling him until 21 weeks or so - it was so annoying! Stupid anterior placentas LOLQuote:
