even though it was difficult to hear the news, it was kind of your friend to think enough about things to message and explain why she had held off on telling you etc.. rather then just letting you see the big announcement on social media or hear it through others. i have been in your friends position (pregnant with a friend who has lost babies) and even though i lost my daughter i was still nervous about telling her, especially with my girls because up to that point we were both boy mums who had lost our girls, and we had spoken openly about those feelings of jealousy and hurt whenever someone we knew had a girl even though we would both be pleased for them, so i knew what the news of me having a girl was going to make her feel :( it is a difficult position to be in.

the due date is hard :( again speaking purely from my own experience i found her due date very hard the year she died because it was a reminder of where we should have been and that we never got that far.. even though i was pregnant again by that point i found it impossible to let go of what week i *should* have been with her pregnancy rather than concentrating on what week i actually was with the new baby.. (i was a complete mess following her death) but after that year her actual birthday rather than her due date became the main day for her in my mind, and ive honestly never really thought of her due date since, i guess its like when you have a full term baby and they dont arrive on their due date, you mark the birthday not the due date if that makes any sense? she has her birthday and it will always be her day <3

i hope that you are feeling a little better today and i also hope that my being honest with what i experienced hasnt been upsetting to read, it is different for everyone and there are no rules when it comes to grief, things change, especially with time and sadly the loss of a baby or child is the start of a lifelong journey that none of us asked to go on.

"We each have to find our own way through our grief. Just as each child is special and different, so is each mother and our pain when our child dies is unique to us. But we do not have to walk the path alone.."

we are all here for you whenever you need us, wishing you as peaceful a time as possible as your baby girls due date approaches :sadflwr: xx

You're very welcome! I'm glad it helped a bit...
This baby is due on the 3rd of September. It' with very mixed emotions because Liv was due on the 1st of September last year, so I will be going through all the same phases now...xxxx

Don't stress about the symptoms. Last year I had soar boobs even before I was pregnant and now I still don't have soar boobs and I'm 9w3d with a good US last Friday. I know it's hard to stay positive but maybe it's good to focus on something else? That's what I try at least....And I'm also sooo tired :) (didn't have that last year).

Good luck! And don't hesitate to share your feelings, we're all here to support each other! x

congratulations Amelia :D so exciting all these BFP's!! fingers crossed for those of you still in the tww xx

Hi, I'm going to start swaying for a girl the end of June. Will be purchasing a plan sometime this month! Right now just focusing on my weight loss journey! So excited to do this! :)

I have four children
Boy 13
Girl 8
Boy 4
Boy 21 months

Hey Mommy2apples - we are TTC in July. I have started the LE diet as of now , to slowly ease myself into it. Already down 1.3 kilos since the start of the year so am happy! :)

You are doing awesome girl! So proud of you!! Yay for trying in June and July!

Hi everyone, I will not begin swaying until Nov/Dec! I am swaying blue as I have two little girls already (5,3)! I am extremely nervous and am trying to slowly start swaying blue now, because I have a pretty typical LE diet with lots of cardio. But I am also running a marathon at beginning of Nov, so I can't slack too much on that. Nice to see support here, I know with fertility issues sometimes I feel so guilty wanting a particular sex!

hi Tanya :) there are quite a few blue swayers around at the moment! i had my 4 boys without swaying but if you have any questions im happy to answer and hopefully help in some way, good luck with your sway! xx

anyone thinking of swaying, planning a sway, actively swaying etc :XX: or :xy: all welcome!!

abit about me..

im 4blue2pink or at least i was when i first joined this site.. thanks to gender dreaming i had a successful pink sway last year so im now 4blue3pink :) and hoping to be 4blue4pink in the not too distant future *fingers crossed* im all about big families and small age gaps!! many think im crazy but i wouldnt have it any other way :)

my family so far is:
boy 2010
girl 2011 (mid pregnancy loss)
boy 2011 (different pregnancy after the loss)
boy 2012
boy 2014
girl 2015
girl 2016 (successful GD sway)

i didnt sway for any of my children except my youngest but from being on this site i can clearly see why i had the 4 boys and then my youngest non-sway girl.

last time i did LE diet, one attempt and i also drank diet coke, i didnt do alcohol, coffee or exercise, it was a very laid back and easy to cope with sway which is exactly what i wanted.

this time i plan to keep things very similar, LE diet, one attempt and diet coke again but im weighing up weather or not to add alcohol and/or coffee.. im currently having one alcoholic drink at tea time and will carry that on as long as i can but im not a big fan if im honest!! im going to try coffee but im not sure il be able to drink the recommended 3-4 cups a day in which case i might just scrap it and go without like last time, i also wont be exercising again this time because i cant commit to it with 6 kids to look after.

i hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year and my fingers are crossed that everyone on here gets their desired pink or blue beans in 2017!! and look forward to hearing from any other fellow swayers who want to chat :)

im currently on day 2 of my LE diet and have started using opk's this month to try and get an idea of when to plan the 1 attempt for when we are ready, last time i got a positive opk on day 17 each month so im hoping this time it will be the same day each month again to make life easier!! Bring on round 2!! xx

Im breastfeeding atm with little girl but no clomid last time and none this time so fingers crossed i start ovulation again ��

Good to hear some successful sways without clomid! I have been feeling doomed that I won't have it for my sway- you girls give me hope!
