Still waited another 3 weeks until my 24 week scan with my consultant on a different machine where he confirmed again it was a girl and double checked before I would believe it. Dh was cracking up with me lol.

My baby has an anterior placenta and so I've been having a U/S a month for like 3 months straight.. every time we went we just HAD to make sure she was still all girl! :rofl:

Congrats everyone!! I must admit its very painful to hear, so wish I was in all your shoes:/
I'm so happy for you all but think I'll step back for a bit as I've been really positive about my 3rd boy but hearing others get what I wanted so badly brings all those negative thoughts back:( sorry to be a Debbie downer:/

My boobs have pretty much exploded so i have gone and bought all new underwear, ive gone from a B cup to a DD haha DP loves it but they are so sore, i have to massage them every night just to get some relief. I am really looking forward to feeling the baby move any day now hopefully and i am still waiting on my darn doppler to come in the post.

Argh poor you. Hope they calm down.
Mine are so huge too, was a b now exploding out of my dd's think I need to go get some new ones but so hate bra shopping! xx

Thanks girls. My boys watched Arthur Christmas the other day and said they wanted to call the new baby that so they kind of have there way :)
It's such a strange feeling naming a baby before its even here. Have never been set on a name before. Just meant to be I suppose :)

Coocoo, its okay I totally get what you are saying. I too feel more positive about my third boy but it does hurt to see others getting their dream genders even though I am VERY happy for them. I am jealous and don't understand how everyone can't get their dream genders but I also get that it's not all in my control and there is nothing I can do to change it anymore right now. It wasn't our time but it could be in the future.

Don't stay away too long though if you do step back! We love your presence here and value your insights!

I was out when it happened... when I got back home I used my little doppler thing and found the baby's heartbeat right away. It was probably not a big deal at all and I'm sure mom's with toddlers around that are pregnant have gotten far worse! But being that this is my first time being a pregnant lady with a toddler, it felt so wrong and not good. I guess in my head I was like, "OH MY GOD! IS MY PLACENTA GOING TO DETACH?!" Geez, so melodramatic.... I'm sure everything is totally fine. Just made me so paranoid because I had never felt that before... because I've never had a toddler trying to perch on top of my pregnant belly!

Only $50! So not too bad!

When the day came it was crazy...he woke me up like an excited kid at Christmas and said "Wake up, come on hon, let's go find out the gender of our baby!!!" And I just had a pit in my stomach, and was anxious and said "uhh alright.." hahahaha

He totally thought it was going to be a boy... yet he was that excited!?
Oh was he surprised and happy!

I will tell you this...I've told my closest GD friends so you don't have regrets like me.. GET A DVD... it's SO worth it! Esp if you are indeed carrying your DD! The pics I have of her when I found out what she was.. are my favorite of her..So cute and tiny and the whole body on the U/S screen!
I would have loved a DVD but we couldn't afford it, and money had to go to the gender party instead.

I'm totally getting a little DVD (£10 for 10 minutes) from my gender scan! Boy or girl, it will be nice to have. I wish I had one with my son... what a lovely thing to remember the experience of having life inside.
