hey wanting a girl so pleased to see your lovely bubba!
I'm wasting £80 on a gender scan at 16weeks in the uk we get 12 and 20 weeks and I can't bear the idea of spending four weeks dreaming of a girl when i could know it's not!!!
two more sleeps to my scan now! i'll be 12+3 so dunno how good the nub will be - think in some ways it might be better not to add to the pain ;-)
i wouldnt have gotten the nub if it was my choice.... cause now it will be all i think about.... now im not to sure if my recurring nub dreams will end lol.... cant wait to see pics of your baby :) 2 days feel like forever lol i had so many different worries going into mine cause it was my firs scan like if there were two... if it was even alive... i swear i have not bonded with the baby this preg yet cause i have been so nervous of missed misscarriage and now that i have seen a healthy baby i can finally bring myself to realization that i am having a new baby in less than 6 months ... i really hope its a girl .... when i was younger i said all the time i only wanted boys when i grow up lol i feel as if i brought this apon myself lol.... so weird for me to think like that lol i had three older brothers and no sisters lol and it was hell for me ha ha
a close friend of mine has 2 ds's pretty much same age as mine she miscarrided her third preggy about 3 months ago at 11 weeks, and i know it's not related but this time i just want shift the nagging doubt that the baby will be okay the last two times i wasn't worried at all, also wonder if it's twins - think i'm just fat thou LOL. So not feeling as excited about this 12 week as last two, last two times i didn't know you could 'tell gender' at this point and i think that made it a happier place!Quote:

I just came over to GD a couple of days ago and I honestly don't know a lot about "board courtesy" on here, specifically about how you guys feel about new members on a birth month board. I'd love join in if you'll have me though. I live in the US with my hubby and two boys but I am actually from Luxembourg (Europe). I noticed this board is more "international" than other sites, which I love. I also like the fact that there are more women here who understand what it's like to wish for a different gender after having one or two (or many more) of the same.
Oh and I am due Sept 3rd but bub is measuring a few days ahead as all my babies seem to. DS2 was actually born at 42 weeks weighing in at 9lbs6oz (whereas DS1 was born at 36+3 due to pre-e).
Anyway, I am wishing you all healthy and happy pregnancies!
Welcome :)
Hey there! So I've seen a few of your posts and it looks like we are in a similar boat, even as far as our somewhat controversial nub shots go. This is my last baby.... :worry:
But I was wondering if this pregnancy has *felt* different to you in any way. As opposed to my first two pregnancies with the boys, I have been feeling more tired, more nauseous, more aversions, bbs grew a lot (they stayed the same with the boys) and feel bumpy and painful, skin is worse than it's ever been in my life, and I am craving cheese like it's going out of style. Before, I could go months without milk, yogurt, or cheese, and not even miss it.
I'm not putting too much stock in these things because I know it's totally possibly to have a very different pregnancy and still carry another boy.
I was curious about your experience though. :happy:
So this pregnancy is hell compared to three of my boys combined lol I was never sick with the boys not once! My boobs only grew with my first and that's cause I was 16 and this time I grew out of my bra already! I hugged my toilet for two months I'm starting to feel better now... But I was throwing up in stores and everything lol.... I never had aversions with the boys and I have aversions to so many things lol I have just started to actually eat meals again the past few days... The actual study about nub theory talks about angle it doesn't talk about things on the end clearly mine is straight and pretty parallel so we will see... I will have to take a look at yours... Also I'm craving icecream and I hate icecream lol... With my boys I craved vinager
Ugh my poor boys! I'm such a mean grumpy mom!! I get really grouchy this pregnancy, especially if my blood sugar gets low! My morning sickness was a little worse today, so I couldn't eat which means my blood sugar plummeted and mean mommy came out, my poor poor poor guys! I'm glad they sill love me!
Aww don't be too hard on yourself it happens to all of us... I've been really moody too
Thorz I really do feel your pain on the moody/grumpy. With my two boys I never felt "hormonal" or that I had a short temper. I felt like myself. However, this PG I have been such a raging hormonal psycho!! I will go from calm to screaming at my kids in 2 seconds and afterward I feel really bad and I wonder "who in the hell am I right now?" I haven't been crying I just go straight to anger and stay there. It isn't fun for anyone:(
