Trust me, the three I've got now can get pretty noisy! One of your twins' nubs looked incredibly girly.
Am so tired today! It was my boys' joint birthday party yesterday and its floored me - I was dreading it and so glad its over with!
I'm feeling a little negative today, I'm excited for all the ladies who seem to have girl nubs and those of you who have a confirmed girl, truly I am, but I feel like someone is gonna be let down, statistically we can't all get our DG can we?? Ugh with luck, I'll be the one to hear BOY! I mean I don't even have the luck to get a dr that does a 12 week scan!! I know I need to stop being negative, it's just one of those days! Sorry!
I haven't been active on this thread, but I want to change that! Hello everyone!! I don't think I ever gave an introduction. My name is Lauren and I have 2 boys. Surprise baby #3 is due September 16th. I suffered gd pretty bad with DS2. I was hesitant to even have another child because of all those feelings but here I am. It took months to conceive my boys (DS1 I wasn't really trying b/c I was only 18 but we definitely were throwing caution to the wind often, lol). I was shocked that one oopsie resulted in this pregnancy- I know it only takes one time, just not usually for me. My 8 year old insists this baby is a girl. He was right with his brother so I'm hoping he's right again. Lately though I've been having a boy feeling. I paid to get an early u/s with DS2. This time I don't really want to know.. I do but I don't, if you kwim. I think what makes it a little harder this time is my DH has a preference. He wants a little girl. I didn't even know this until he was looking at the Ramzi theory and obsessing over my u/s pic. I really hope we aren't all disappointed. :( Anyway, just wanted to hop on here and share my feelings. It feels good to talk to others who can relate. :)
I'm sorry you are feeling down! I really, really hope you are pregnant with a girl. I've been having a boy feeling too. Maybe it's just a defense mechanism for both of us?
I won't have a 12 wk u/s either. I'm ok with it though. I'm in that ignorance is bliss stage. lol!
I know how you feel...most of the votes I got on our baby's nub are for boy so I have been trying to prepare myself for that but haven't made any progress. I also know several lovely 3-boy families so it helps to know that it's not just happening to "me." Obviously it's not but I also know many more families who ended up with the opposite gender after having two of the same. Ah pity party. :rolleyes: But since you haven't even had a nub shot yet, there's a lot more hope for you! I just saw you're in Columbus. I am right down the road in Dayton, haha. I'm confused that you're not offered an NT scan?! I thought that was standard practice by now?!
I hope your day gets better, hang in there.
Hi Lauren and congratulations on your new baby! It seems as though there are quite a few of us on here with boys and dreaming of pink. Our 3rd wasn't a surprise, we really wanted to have one more, but now I wish we would have tried to sway for pink. This is definitely our last baby though and it doesn't help that my DH also wants a little girl. My older son also insists that this baby is another boy whereas the little 2-year-old dude keeps saying it's a baby sister, lol. I booked a private scan for March 14th, so we'll know soon. Part of me thinks like you....ignorance is bliss. But if it's indeed a third boy, I want to know asap so I can move on and get excited. Because little boys are really really awesome. :bluecheer:
So did you get your scan rescheduled? Hoping you got it for closer to 12-13 weeks. You need to get better at telling the white lies to get what you want:) I know that sounds awful however, when it comes to getting the US scan I will exaggerate certain things to get one:) You know that no matter what anyone else gets on this thread it doesn't increase or decrease your changes for a DD. Hang in there... I know the waiting is awful. You should look into some private scan places that will do a gender determination at 15 weeks:) It will give you something to look forward to and it will make your 20 week scan more enjoyable:) Hope you have a better day!
