I feel numb with happiness and like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. We had the doctor put the results in an envelope and we took it home and opened it. I couldn't look so my eyes were closed while husband opened it...husband paused and I thought he was waiting for me to tell him it was okay to say it. He said it out loud, I immediately opened my eyes and he was standing there with tears already filling his eyes. We both stood there hugging and crying...and my husband never cries. He was so happy. He wanted a girl more than he was letting on.

This is the first girl birthed into his immediate family in 48 years. He is 1 of 5 kids- 1 girl (she is the oldest and 48) and then 4 boys. The siblings have produced 7 grandsons for my in-laws and they are all done having kids- my husband is the last to have kids so we were their only chance to have a granddaughter. After we calmed down, DH said (through tears) "We broke the streak!"

I am so thankful right now and full of emotions.

Jumping onto the thread to say huge congrats girlie!!! So happy for you!!

Just letting you know that I am out. I have miscarried again and I'm waiting for a D and C (not happening until Friday). I'm not sure whether I'll be back here or not - I've had three losses in a row and I don't know if we will be trying again. Certainly not soon, anyways.

Having all these losses has reinforced to me how precious my boys are. I'm trying to accept the lesson with grace and fortitude. Speaking only for myself: I believe that my previous attitude was spoiled, selfish, and just plain wrong. I should have been humble, open, and grateful for what I had. I am now. :happy:

I am so sorry for your loss serenity.
Big hugs from me.

I too am out for those who don't know. I had a chemical pregnancy.
I am ttc again this month but so far fertility friend cannot pinpoint ovulation as my temp has not spiked. I am on cd20. OPKS were + day 15/16.
I just had an internal ultrasound today and the tech wouldn't tell me if I've ovulated. She just told me she sees a larger follicle surrounded by smaller follicles. Whatever that means

Anywhere good luck everyone with your pregnancies. If I get a miracle this cycle I'll be back!!

So much news today! Serenity & Robin2014, best of luck whatever you do.

And congratulations GirlieCat! Who's up next? :D

I took my first prenatal yoga class on Sunday morning - it was great! There were 15 students and I was the least furthest along there. I'll definitely go back this weekend. And today I'm getting a table massage. I'm planning on tons and tons of self-pampering :) Lastly, we moved 8 miles to our newly remodeled house. Everything went relatively smoothly, though there's still many odds and ends to take care of.

Girliecat: have been patiently waiting to see your results from your testing...i am so beyond thrilled for you. I dont often find i feel much one way or another for someone who is swaying for their first baby (though if i had waited to have kids i think deep down i know i would have been the woman who swayed and swayed for a boy the first time if it had been planned) And so just know i truly have tears of joy in my eyes for you. I dont know why i wanted you to so badly have the daughter you dreamed of. Perhaps because you were so beyond kind and supportive to me, or because i watched some of your journey and could see how let down you were some of the months you werent pregnant...

Your daughter is very lucky. And how amazing and wonderful that you guys broke the streak and the joy you just described your husband having....it warms my heart. She is going to be such a treasure to you both. Good luck and i wish you the absolute very best. Will obviously be checking in on you time to time :)

PS: those migraines you have been having make more sense to me now...not that boy moms dont get them too it just seems more rare...its all the extra girl hormones coursing through you...mine were so bad with DD3 i had to take special medicine for it...i hope yours let up after the first trimester but if not just know there are baby safe options as opposed to suffering like i tried to for most of it

Burakoam- your words literally brought me to tears. Thank you so much for all your kind thoughts and words. [emoji171] I think if I was younger it would have been a bit different too and not so much pressure.

Very interesting about the migraines. I didn't know if it pointed to one gender or the other. Doctor said to expect them till about 20 weeks. Being only 12 now, that scared me. I will try to make it at least past 14-15 weeks medicine free but then if they are still bad I will ask about meds. Glad to know you found a safe medicine to help. Thank you.

GirlieCat: HUGE congratulations on your baby girl. I am thrilled for you. I also had a strong feeling what your sway would be succesfull. It is so wonderfull that so many girls on this due-date-thread are getting their DG. It is so amazingly nice to be able to relax because you don't have to worry anymore, don't you think? Are you going shopping for pink now? After knowing gender for one week now I still find it hard to believe that it is really true. I think it takes a while to sink in. Enjoy the feeling.
