That's great LMSM! Yay for a spot! I hope you hear gender results soon!!! I keep checking in!!!
Praying for all of the US & the islands to be out of harm's way, but it's not looking good & this is a category 5 185 mph!!! We had to evacuate last October for about 4 days & that was a much smaller storm...we just couldn't get home due to flooded roads & the electricity was out. Maybe it'll make a miraculous turn out to sea...
lol I hear all the time with just my three smaller children my you have your hands full. My daughter always ices the cake with a snide well she has one more at home. Their face [emoji15] I don't know why they care so much we take care of them
Our selves and I can't wait until I finally conceive my fifth as I love the chaos! The noise and loudness keeps me going!

Wow, I'm impressed with your big families! My three. Ow make me want to tear out my hair after school... I can't believe we're adding a baby!
This is my fifth in eight years. I sometimes wonder if that's part of why I have so many girls.

Excuse the mess I'm in the middle of folding washing [emoji23] my 21w bump [emoji3] a school mum asked me on Monday if I'm sure there's only one in there [emoji23]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1f070413bf.jpg

Xxforhubby and shann I cannot believe how close you ladies are to having your bubs [emoji50][emoji50] its abit surreal!!!
Xxforhubby how are you going with the BH and BM's? Are they settling down any or getting worse? You're first in your ddg to deliver right?

Pbn-look loving your beautiful bump!!! [emoji173]
4B2P - For Australia – it may just be my own experience though – as I had only girls – maybe people pictured me moreso as a boy mum and that was what “fit” me? Or it is just the “expectation” that you “should” bear a son for your husband’s sake or whatnot (and he could not have cared less about gender haha) – who knows! lol
It is great indeed that you’ve been able to get such a wonderful family – it was just meant to be!! I love the idea of a big gathering for milestones/parties – and even more so as they grow up – brings tears to my eyes at the thought of a big busy loud table filled with laughter and sharing together - :D it must be such a wonderful, crazy at times am sure, ambiance you have at home with your tribe :awe:
My eldest is a very independent bossy miss, so am sure she will be fine – she will ace this big sister*2 thing – she keeps asking for more siblings – funnily enough she says she wants 2 brothers and another sister, so that would be 5 kids – which I know hubby would not go with unless he said yes to #4 and #4 turns out to be #4 and #5 haha I am sure we’ll cope – it’s more DD2 who is a big mummy koala bear that will maybe find it hard to adjust – having said that, she loves babies atm and she’s still always has had to share us with a sibling so might be easier than I expect!
If all goes well I should get my NIPT results in coming days – hoping by tomorrow – so should know gender then! ;)
Mommy2apples – how great your kids are going to school so easily and enjoy it ;)
Lola – that is scary – is your home safe in case of a storm? Hope you don’t have to evacuate – so hard especially with little ones and pregnant! When the 2011 floods hit here, it was terrifying enough – and we were lucky – but we helped out people in the aftermath – clearing houses of mud and the atmosphere was indescribable – post Armageddon ish! So FX really hard it turns out ok!
Srg – I think girls are lovely but can be a handful as they can be prone to drama more?! I don’t have experience with a son , so can’t compare though ;) how old are your girls?
What a cute bump PBN – love it!!
Thanks ladies! I'm loving my bump [emoji7] what I'm not loving is my thighs have doubled in size [emoji52] but gotta take the good with the bad [emoji23]

My DS1 was born 10 days before my birthday on the 31st of August. I'm weird like that though, haha!
I'm just getting so excited! My house is all clean and in order (even laundry [emoji16]). I just need to make time to pack my hospital bag! At least I have a list of what I and my DH want to bring.

I feel lucky in a way as in I feel I have dodged the GD bullet as such because it took so long to conceive my sticky baby. If I had fallen pregnant with a sticky bean back in 2015 then I can say I'm sure I would not have the same mindset I dont think [emoji53] my journey brought about a whole new appreciation and love for my boys, so much so that I would love another boy now, maybe even more than a girl.....

Oh wow xxforhubby [emoji3] eeeeeeek!!!!!! So so close!!! I hope faithinpink updates soon! Cant wait to see her baby girl too [emoji178] and I totally get you on the number thing!!! You have no idea how relieved/amazed and thrilled I was to discover the 10th January was a Wednesday (my ob does surgeries once a week on a Wednesday outside of emergency ones of course) I was deparate for the 10th as I have a 5th and a 15th with the boys and wasn't sure how I'd cope with anything but the 10th [emoji23][emoji23] So I have everything crossed you get to have your dd on the 20th fx fx fx!!!!

I feel you pbn. The losses have away of doing that. You don't realize how much your kids mean to you. I mean you love them, but tragedy brings you even closer to them and makes you realize they are a gift to you and you should cherish every moment with them as they are a miracle and very well couldn't had ever been here! All babies and children are such a blessing! As much as I would love a little sister for dd, I do much more want just one more healthy baby!

And your rainbow baby IS coming mommy2apples [emoji304][emoji173]
So I'm toying with an idea for the birth of bub and having a family gender reveal post birth. Someone a long time ago mentioned the idea of having skin to skin bonding without knowing gender to help cope with GD in case they had an opposite. So using that idea I've been thinking of asking my ob to do the same at birth, so not to announce the gender and have bub put in a white singlet instead of pink or blue. Then when I'm back in my hospital room post op with my husband, my boys and my mum we can have our very own gender reveal by removing the nappy [emoji3] Thoughts?

Oh PBN – just the thought of a reveal like that – gave me goose bumps – if it can be done, I say go for it if it feels right for you!!! :awe: ok, now I am about to cry, yes am an emotional preggo lady but maaan it would be just so beautiful :awe:
Ash – you look stunning hon! Love that bump!!!
My bump comes and goes depending on amount of food and gaz :rofl: but definitely starting to be something there :P can’t wait to strut that bump to the world once it is time :D
PS: Good luck for all the cleaning and housework – it ain’t fun – especially when it seems that once you have it all nice and tidy and clean it takes a nanosecond for it to come undone (kids/hubby blah!)
Pbn, I love the bump, and your gender reveal gave me goosebumps! I love that, how intimate and special!!
Ash and xx, seriously so cute! [emoji175][emoji175]

Srg, I soooo feel the same way lol...

XX-you look fantastic! So excited for you to meet your little one soon!! Fx for the 20th!! I have a weird obsession with numbers too. I don't have a specific rhyme or reason, but I do like patterns & numbers that flow together! I like the sound of 2/8/18. One of my coworker's had her baby on 11/12/13 & I thought that was the coolest thing!!!
Pbn-LOVE your reveal idea!! That would be such a special moment & fun for your family!!
Ash-looking awesome!! Is that your lovely new nursery dresser?!
I love all of these bumps! You are all gorgeous!!!
LMSM-I have the same bump that comes & goes...sometimes I think it's more of a "food baby" lol, but today seems to look more like a bump to me...not sure how that happened?!
Thanks Max & LMSM...preparing for the worst with this storm, hoping for the best! If we have to evacuate, we'll either go to our family's country house or up to Ohio to see DH's family. We are about 20 minutes from the beach & this area is prone to flooding. We'll see what happens over the next few days!!
XX – totally missed your beautiful bump pic when I scrolled down too fast and missed a whole page – you look gorgeous!!
Lola – yep, mine is half food baby half uterus growing – bub is only like 4cm so can’t really blame him/her for making me look fat..yet! :rofl:
Am sure you look divine and oh so petite still ;)
Wow what a busy day in here!
Maxim - Hope your daughter had a good first day x Sorry about the spotting, hope you've got your feet up again and it's stopped.
Welcome GabrielsMommy :)
4blue2pink - Love that you have a beautiful big family! The biggest families I know in Oz have 4, but I love big families.
Ash - Thank you! I hope so, I want to buy something girly to make it real. Hope Ds3 had a good first day and you get some sleep tonight. Great photo; looking great!
Shann - Hope you can get some me time soon after being so busy.
LMSM - Sprry your results aren't in yet....FX for tomorrow!!! So close to your scan now, what date? Hope you get into the program!! Everything crossed.
Lola - Thank you!!! Hope I'm joining the pink side. Hope the hurricane doesn't get to you! Big hugs and prayers.
Mommy2apples - Hope this is your month!!! Maybe she will scan you and see the egg about to be released while you're there xo
Pbn3 - Gorgeous bump! Hate comments about size.....ppl should just always say you look great! Big or small xo I carry my babies in my thighs too....bring on summer and maxi dresses hehe
Love the gender reveal idea!!! Amazing.
XX - Looking fab and glad you're all ready now! So excited to hear baby news :)
