Ladybugs your little one is so gorgeous!!! Keep the pics coming.
Bunny I am right behind you, 2nd Tri starts on Sunday, yayyyy. I experienced the same thing with my belly last night. It came out of nowhere I swear. The day before it was completely flat but last night I put my hands on my belly while I was sleeping and woke up because it felt so different. Here is the proof:

After getting some boy/boy guesses on my nubs it came to my mind for the very first time that I really could be carrying two boys and I started to panic. I know I don't have to explain it to you guys, there is nothing bad at all about having boys it's just that I would love a daughter as well. I wanted to talk to DH about my fears and was so surprised when he got mad at me. He didn't get that at all and said I am not being grateful. After all we've been through I should feel blessed to be carrying twins but no matter how often I explained to him that I am over the moon happy he didn't get what this is all about for me. BUT when I said I believe I could be carrying two girls by looking at the nubs he said "no way, at least one of them has to be a boy." So why can he wish for a certain gender? I still think it's either b/g or g/g but the thought of 2 boys is somehow scary.
TTC I am sorry you are feeling bad but it will get better soon. You are looking awesome. I love your Christmas Card and you guys look sooo happy and always glowing! Will you have an NT scan?
Meeks do you know more by now? Did you find out what's going on? Haven't heard from you since yesterday, hope you are doing good!
GeCon it's crazy how time flies by. I remember how the two of us were line guessing on our HPT's together and now you are only a few weeks away of holding your precious little boy.

Myrainbowgirl - I completely understand you getting overwhelmed! I had a moment like that too recently where the older boys were acting up and I just KNEW people were watching us thinking "and she's got another tiny one?!?!" LOL... I freaked out for a min, but then decided to say FORGET THOSE PEOPLE! Kids act up, and boys are a handful to boot so its not going to be all roses all the time. You are correct about God giving us only what we can handle and I truly believe we are such good Moms to boys that he trusts us with this many!
So you are going for #4? How long after delivery are you thinking about TTC? I am still so up in the air about it... this last pregnancy and delivery were very difficult for me and recovery hasn't been a cakewalk either... but I can't shake the feeling that I'm not done yet! I won't TTC until I am ready for another boy though! LOL

Sorry, *going for #5*... I've been obsessing about 4 kids as you can tell! LOL

TTCPink - The older boys are doing really well with the baby actually! I think waiting so long between pregnancies was a really good thing for us. They get a little impatient if they want/need something from me and I'm busy with baby though, but they're adjusting :) My 8 yr old is definitely more excited about his little brother, but my 6 yr old is doing good too :) All in all I couldn't have asked for a better transition!

Meeks - how are you feeling? Did you get any answers from your Dr appt? Thinking of you and hoping all is well!
Pumpkin - if there are any group of ladies who understand the fear of having all boys, it's this group! Haha... but I promise you will love them to pieces even if that is the case :) I really believe you have at least one girl in there though... those nubs looked different from one another, so no matter how you look at it I don't think they are the same gender! But, it they are both boys then you can come cry to us, because so many of us understand that initial letdown! Keeping my fingers crossed for you :)

Pumpkin....one of those cuties just has to be a girl!!! I am not a nub guesser, but even to me the nubs look different, so it would truly shock me if they were both the same gender. For the 4 weeks that I had been told boy to finding out that she was a she...I realized that I was saying bye to the dream of a mixed gender family as our number was 3 max. I feel for you that your hubby did not understand.... lots of hugs!!! I still think that one of those mini pumpkins is going to be pink though.
Bunnywabbit....yay for being through 1st tri! It always felt the longest as the biggest highlight of it is near the end being able to hear the heartbeat....2nd tri always flew by for me. I hope that your upcoming scan is a great holiday treat....seeing baby in all their cuteness sounds like a wonderful present!!!
Myrainbowgirl..... (((hugs))) My boys, despite how great they have been with the new baby, are pushing their limits the closer it gets to Christmas. I blame my hubby....lol, that gingerbread house/icing sugar creation has been spawning 2 of the most "excitable" boys!! I hope for your sake your newest little man is MELLOW!!!
Charlee...I do think that with having older boys and now a new baby, it is so much easier than those who do add to their family closer together. My oldest has already been asking for number 4....
Gecon...36 weeks was my big aim too...I really wanted her here with my MD and not be forced the hour away in the less than optimal setting of the larger hospital. You are so close to meeting your new little guy.....it is going to be a great new year!!!
Meeks...so that is not cool about the pain...I do pray that they were able to determine what is causing it!
Emily...are you in the UK? Is that little baby here?????
AFM....thanks so much about all the comments about little Larissa! We are smitten by her....and so thankful that she is in the 97%...not the 3%. The u/s pushed back the visit to Vancouver to the 3 month mark, so I take it that they are not as worried as initially thought, but I don't know if it means surgery or not. For right now, I am just taking it one day at a time and making sure I cuddle her as much as I can.

Hello ladies!!!!!sorry Have been awol - i was staying with my parents who do not have internet so only managed the occasional FB over the last 3 weeks. i saw that Charlee has had her gorgeous little boy and got very broody which is weird for me as Normally think newborns (even my own) look like scrunched up aliens!!!! Belated congrats Charlee.
AFM i have now moved into my temporary flat and my husband and both boys are here too:) no baby yet but loads of increasingly uncomfortable BHs.
Right off to read the last three weeks of posts!

Thanks ladies, you are awesome!
Ladybugs so glad to hear Larissa is in 97%!! Can't wait to see more pics, she really is a cutie!
Emily good to hear from you. Not long to go :).
I watched a video of baby B today I haven't uploaded and found something that's looking like a potty shot to me. Is it too early for potty shots to be accurate?
