Due March/April/May 2017 (3)

My thyroid IS enlarged on the left side. He is certain I have a nodule. I'll have a thyroid ultrasound some time in the next week or two.more labs drawn today I won't get results for a while though. I don't know wether to feel relieved or worried. Currently am both

I'm so sorry you didn't get your girl All*blue!! But congratulations on your boy. The one thing that has made me feel better about having all boys is thinking how good of friends they will be...for you having 5 boys, they will surely be the best of friends (well...maybe when they're older lol).

One of the hardest things I have dealt with is having one of my good friends who is due a week after me announce she is having a girl. I hate that I am jealous of her, but I am. If you do find out your SIL is having a girl just come on here and vent all you need to! I think all of us have a similar situation and would be able to relate!!

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Years Eve!!! I will be spending my New Years at work, ringing it in with my coworkers and 50 NICU babies [emoji1405]

I really hope the damn tumor is done dying and it won't drag out anymore this pregnancy. It was way worse with DS1 though. So I'm grateful it's not as agonizing as the last time.

I love seeing my son play with his cousins. That's most definitely why he wanted a sister and not a brother. His cousins are girls and his best friend who moved away is a girl. He's more used to girls and he prefers playing with girls.

He STILL wants a sister. And is still asking for one. It's so sad. He seems to be accepting that he's getting a brother and seems alright with it...
But, I really don't think things will pan out for him to get a sister. I'd only do HT for a third baby because I seriously don't want another boy. I feel awful for saying that and thinking that. As I love my son more than anything in the world and I already love my second and unborn son the same way. I just don't want three boys.

My husband LAUGHED when I told him how much IVF with gender selection costs. But, he's still not closed to the idea. Haha. I think he still really wants a daughter too. Deep down inside. If I am not overwhelmed with two boys and we could somehow afford it and my life and family feels incomplete, then there's still hope for a little girl. A very expensive little girl. Haha.

I hope everyone had a great Xmas. And I hope everyone has a lovely New Years Eve!

Sorry you had a not great Christmas eve! On the positive, it does not sound like your dh is against the ht route so you may yet get your little girl! Hope you have a better new year eve! X

My goodness 6 children, I cannot image that many, I struggle with three and worry how I will cope with a fourth! That nothing to do with babies gender, just a general concern, you are a very brave lady!

How old are we all? Am 36 and think am getting to old to be having babies x

RBC was low (3.77)

i feel like i should be more concerned about those numbers but how awful i feel and my doctors lack of concern makes it hard to care.

more importantly i had ketones (40) in my urine and protein.

My bilirubin is low too :/

Creatinine is low..0.52...

and my co2 levels are much lower than they should be even in pregnancy (imagining thats due to thryroid..)

Sodium was low but i think thats from puking. 135

I only gave this much information because i feel like i am missing something since i have horrendous brain fog..any of the fellow nurses want to chime in on if any of that makes sense as to why i feel like walking death, please inform me because my doctor isnt concerned at all...which means all my hope lays in the endocrinologist i see tomorrow morning.

Happy new year lovely ladies. Hope 2017 is a fantastic year for you all x o
