Ash are u taking anything for the MS ?
🎀 2010 🎀 2012 🎀 2016 🤰due 2018
there are pro's and cons to both ways as im sure you know and i think only you can make the decision that is right for you, i wish it was simpler :( and im so sorry you are feeling all this.
just a suggestion here for if you do stay team green :) you could request that no-one announce the gender at birth, you have them put baby on you as they do and you have as much time as you need holding baby, falling in love and just taking it all in and then you look when you are ready without pressure from anyone else.
i hope that you are able to come to a decision that feels right for you and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy xx
Hi & welcome mum of four monkeys! Sorry you had mixed gender messages with the nipt results, but glad your little guy is healthy. I'm doing the materniT21 test for the first time July 18th and don't know what to expect. What type of mixed messages did you get?
Pbn-thank you, I do think that all is fine with BIL's baby, but DH did talk to him on the phone today & asked how everything is going. He said fine, but didn't elaborate much. He asked if they had done any U/S pics b/c he'd love to see. He said his bro just kind of laughed & said they did. He said he was going to e-mail, but don't think DH has received anything yet. We may just be reading into it too much after what his mom said, but the laughing response is a little curious hmm...
Blue-I think it's a great idea to have your gender written down on a paper in an envelope to open when you're ready! I am wondering how I'll hear the gender results from my blood work. I'd like to be able to read it at home by myself. I'm not going to lie, I will be so disappointed if I hear boy & nothing has seemed to prepare me for this moment. I would get over it, but I know I'd cry at first and hate feeling that way about a little person that I made!!!
Momoffourboys that's horrible that dh and family would put that kind of pressure on you. It is absolutely not your fault!
Blue I don't have anything for the ms just more natural things that I've also been neglecting. My dr isn't keen on extra meds so more than likely they'd say since I'm not vomiting up all my food and I've gained a couple lbs I'm good. And I'm ok with it I guess

Ash over the counter unisom ( generic of diclegis) has helped me a lot without making me drowsy as i can still function at work (surprisingly) I don't have vomiting i just feel blah with a weird taste and that a pill at night keep me feeling normal.

Mumoffour i have had comments like urs too about not being able to carry a boy but very thankfully my DH has always been on my side and very supportive of me. And i think this is what has helped me bear with all the nasty comments. I have only told 2 coworkers and so far so good. Havent had courage to tell MIL ( she is the worse with comments) my mum has always been neutral. She wishes i get a boy but also will be ok if its a girl.
🎀 2010 🎀 2012 🎀 2016 🤰due 2018
Yeah MIL is the one that was treating me that way then everyone else just joined in including my husband. She has also accused me of being bulimic and anerexic because I am not fat nor have I ever been. She has made so many rude comments and the sad part is I just have to take it because my husband does nothing. He's says she didn't mean it to be mean and I just shouldn't get offended. But how do you not get offended when someone belittles you like that?
I totally understand mumoffour. I just don't understand how ppl can do that. I mean she is a mother too. She should understand. We have no control over this.

Srg - I don't believe much in gender dreams but in my experience it was true. I always dreamed DD was a boy (and really vivid dreams that made me absolutely sure) never dreamed she was a girl. However my mum said she only dreamed that DD was a girl and never a boy.
This pregnancy I've only had one dream and this baby was a girl at the 20 week ultrasound even though we're actually team green. So maybe it means the opposite for me like last time. In saying that my mum had a dream when I was about 8-9 weeks pregnant that I was having a boy this pregnancy and told my atepdad I was having a boy and she was right last time but who knows!!
I just want to dream of Daryl again and finish off where we started 😦😂 I even tried googling pics of him before I went to sleep in the hopes I would 😂😂😂😂

Pbn - You crack me up. I hope u get to finish where u left things off. [emoji12][emoji12][emoji12][emoji12][emoji12][emoji41][emoji41][emoji41]JK. That's one precious dream from one TWD fan to the other. [emoji12][emoji12]I love Rick a little bit more though. [emoji41]
MOFM - I got so sad when I read what all you went through with the family and even dh joining in. Just broke my heart. ❤️❤️❤️❤️to you. You are giving birth and that's the biggest joy n miracle. I would really love to give your mil a piece of my mind [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849].
You are such a strong person. Hugs and a lot of respect for you.
Ash - I am sorry you aren't feeling good. Hope it gets better soon and also it may be a sign for a girl in there. ❤️❤️
I havebn feeling blah today. No throwing up but everything tastes bitter. [emoji51][emoji51]
Blue - I really like the idea of writing on the paper and then opening it when you feel ready and with no one around. You can msg here and we will be right here for you. I promise. ❤️❤️
And I also love the idea of holding the baby without anyone telling u the gender but I think that will be tricky to ask given the excitement.
Lolla- It's all each of us is thinking right now and no one can understand us better than each other. I really hope u hear a girl. Either way we are all here for each other and will be thankful for a healthy baby. I guess everyone is going to be sad if hear opposite and then mad for being sad and then ok with the whole thing. ❤️🤞🤞

Ash - I'm so sorry you are throwing up now!! I meant to comment on that earlier!
And Lola/Ash - I will be ecstatic if y'all hear girl, I'm really feeling like you will! Like I think I want y'all to hear girl more than I care about me hearing boy [emoji848] SO excited it's soon!!
I'm really leaning towards me and DH finding out gender and telling others when I'm ready! I'll tell y'all as soon as I know though. I'm definitely getting on a piece of paper and looking when ready.

Kat [emoji23] that's to funny that's how I feel about everyone finding it gender and you team greeners are killing me a bit! Surely some of will get desired gender but I'm always the one left out ya know picked last on the kickball team so I doubt it'll be me!
So I got some unison tonight. Do I just take one before bed? How will this help with late afternoon nausea?

4blue2pink-that's a really awesome idea to just hold baby until you're ready to see!! Never thought of that!!
Momoffourboyz-gosh, I'm sorry you're treated that way by MIL. That's absolutely ridiculous & I'm so sorry that DH does nothing about it ugh! Maybe she's the jealous type?! Sky is so right, you are growing the biggest miracle inside of you...it's meant to be a happy time & she treats you this way?? Smh [emoji20]
Sky-I'm so glad we have each other here! You are spot on...sad to hear opposite, then mad for being sad I guess there's no sense in me getting all worked up until I know gender, but so many emotions getting to that point & I know you can relate.
Kat-You are so sweet ...and funny! Thank you, hope we all hear what we want in a few weeks eeeeek!!! I think that's a great idea to tell when you're ready. Others don't even have to know when you're supposed to find out. Unfortunately, I've told family when my next appt is, but I said I didn't know how long it would take to get results back...so that gives me a little time to keep it to myself if I wanted.
Completely random, but have any of you watched the movie "Sing." Just watched it with my boys tonight & it's super cute...they loved it! Haha [emoji198][emoji200]
Lola I've seen bits if it and thought it looked really good! Unfortunately unless its dinosaurs, transformers, killer robots etc my boys arent interested lol. I managed to get ds1 to watch frozen with me when it first came out on dvd but not anymore :(

I have just had to learn to not take anything to heart that she says anymore because I don't like to hold grudges or get angry at people or anything like that but it still hurts though when it happens.
Honestly ladies u guys r sooo awesome ! This forum has always been so non judgmental and supportive.
Thank you !

Ash-lol, "picked last on the kickball team" 🤣 That was me too lol...this absolutely CAN go our way though!! Sometimes I feel guilty for wanting this so bad when I know there are others going through tough times in life. I feel very blessed with all I do have, 2 healthy, wonderful boys & a lot to be thankful for. I can't help, but wonder why some get their desired genders so easily though...maybe they don't put a lot of thought into it & obsess the way I do?? Maybe they're just happy either way & it just works out that way for them & have the perfect pair (as they say). Here's what I don't get...on my mom's side...my grandmother was 1 of 2 girls, my grandmother had 2 girls, my aunt had 2 girls, my mom had a girl (me) & boy, one cousin had 1 girl, one cousin had 2 boys & 2 girls, my brother had 1 girl, then ME (2 boys)...where's my girl?? lol. Is it all DH's fault??lol. He is one of 4 kids (boy, boy, girl, boy).
Haha pbn-my boys are young enough that they will still watch what I suggest, but dinosaurs, transformers, cars etc are their favs! I loved the music in the movie...it was fun!
Momoffourboyz-that is such a great attitude & you sound like such a kind-hearted person! You are definitely a strong person! I don't like to hold grudges either & I'm non-confrontational, but I would def speak my mind to DH & let him know how I really feel
Lolla - ❤️❤️❤️❤️@ where is my girl?? You are adorable. Hope u and Ash get your girls this time.
MOFM - I second what Lolla said. That's a great attitude and u are so so strong. Some people just aren't capable of knowing how lucky they are. Your family is so lucky to have you. ❤️❤️
Bluebooties- This is my place and you all are my people. I would
Go nuts if I didn't have this outlet. This is my safe place. Glad u feel the same way. Hugs.

Lolla- We also loved watching Sing. We love watching movies with dd. Her favorites are Moana, Ballerina,Zootopia,Boss baby and Finding dory& Nemo. Pretty much any animation movie [emoji4][emoji4] My dh tells dd that we r gonna have a boss baby. She laughs so hard. [emoji12]

Ash - unfortunately just taking the unisom/b6 combo at night doesn't help me in the late afternoon the next day. So I take it around the clock, only 15mg unisom is in 1 diclegis pill though. I actually set my alarm for 3 am and take a pill. Then I take 1 at 10am, 4pm and 8pm. To be most effective you are suppose to take when you haven't eaten for an hour so I feel like I'm constantly watching the clock to schedule food/meds, but honestly I feel like that's how the first year with a baby is (feeding all the time) so might as well get use to it. Anyways, that schedule has made 180 difference for me so I'll stay on it until I feel I can ween down. It does make me drowsy, hello unison all day long, but I couldn't function with how bad the nausea was. I can function tired, again hello all next year with a baby [emoji23] Hope that helps anyone interested. And it's class A drug so I feel safe and I took it last pregnancy with no complications.

Hello all.
I had my appt yesterday and nuchal scan that's measured at 2.1 mm. Ultrasound calculated baby at 11 week and 5 days. But the photo I got, is too small and blurred that even I can't see baby in it. I wish I could get proper photo to nub guess :(

Sumbal glad to hear baby is doing well. But just a bummer u couldn't get a good nub shot.

Sumbal-yay for baby doing well, but boo for not being able to get a shot. Did you make your next appt? Maybe you'll see more then?
Sky & srg-lol at your "boss baby." Can't wait to see that one too, just waiting until it's available to rent on demand!
My boys are older (8 and 11) and they got a kick out of Boss Baby. It was pretty hilarious.

Thanks blue and kat. I took one before bed last night and honestly if all it does is help me sleep like I did last night I'll keep taking it! Best sleep in a while.
Sumbal sorry you didn't get a good pic but Better for you to be team green.
Lola we love sing it is currently in the van for when we go places. I'm going to have to watch boss baby my older two have been wanting to see it.

sorry to hear about your grandad ash :( fingers crossed you can get in early for your scan, would they do an evening appointment for after dh work? xx
Thanks 4blue2pink I think everyone is at peace with it he's old and has sorosis of the liver and has been in pain for a while. The ultrasound place is open till 8 but he is just on call at all times in case of a incident so I think I'm stuck waiting until the next Saturday.

Ash - Could you not go without DH and have them put in envelope and y'all open together later that night?
