Hi ladies, glad to read your pregnancies are progressing well.
Fefe for me morning sickness doesn't say much about gender. With DS1 no morning sickness just felt sick when I smelt DHs deodorant. DS2 was sick and throwing up most of the pregnancy. DS1 is more like me and DS2 more like DH. So I put it down to genes. I'm 6+3 now and getting waves of sickness just hope it doesn't get any worse. Count yourself lucky and hope no sickness means girl for you.
@luvmyfam: I also have a scan at 13+1 and I hope the tech will want to try to find out what we're having. It's in exactly one month and I'm allready very excited. :nails:
I personnally think it is very hard not to know what I'm having after a girl sway and a strong gender desire. I had a dream this night that the tech announced me it was a girl and I woke up sweating really hard and not immediately realizing that it was a dream. The tech even said: Isn't that wonderful after two boys??? Yes it is, pleaaazeee, I'm totally fine with it :giggle:
Fiya what a great dream! I hope it comes true for you. I had a dream the other night that my mum was holding my baby girl and she had lovely dark hair. Funny because my boys have fair hair but I had dark hair as a baby. I had dreams with my boys early on that they were boys so I really hope this dream comes true too.
I had severe morning noon and night sickness on my boys - Hyperemesis in fact. I know two moms with two boys and then had their girl and both of them were severely sick with their boys and not sick at all with their girl. My SIL has two girls and she didn't know she was pregnant on either of them until about 16 weeks. Definitely agree with Taytum here. Morning sickness on a girl is an Old Wives Tale for sure. I am hoping to avoid it this time!!Quote:

Aww Taytum that's so sweet. Having a good name picked really does help. With DS1 we had a girl name picked from before he was even conceived, definitely didn't help with my GD that I couldn't find a boy name I liked. Until just prior to delivery I realised if I abbreviated my dad's name it was actually a lovely tribute. So that's what we did. His name suits him so perfectly! We have a boys name agreed upon this time but not a girls lol.
What a great dream Fiya! And I totally get what you mean about not being able to know what we are having due to the whole swaying thing. My desire is so strong it's definitely clouding my judgment!
@hopper: I'm afraid my gender desire is clouding my judgement too. If it is a boy, I would like to know it sooner than later, because I only look at girl clothes and girl names.
I have a list of 10 names, but a boy name seems impossible to find. We had two boy names for our first and picked one. The other name is the name of our second child and there are actually no other boy names that we both like. But girl names, I have a bunch of them.
Lol we had that one name for DS1, found out what we were having on DS2 at 19 weeks and the poor child was still nameless until he was 24 hours old. Our issue is AGREEING on names lol. I have a tonne of girl names I love but DH doesn't like any of them. He likes one name and is unwilling to budge as I had the final say in our boys names. It's not that I don't like the name he's chosen, it was our girl name for our first child and when DS1 arrived I just couldn't imagine giving that name to another child as I was supposed to already have her if that makes sense. Maybe if we were fortunate enough to have a girl and I knew for sure we were having a girl I could feel different about it but for now we are at an impasse.
Speaking of lack of symptoms ladies I feel off today. I had to make myself toast the moment I got up, I had to haul my rear out of bed in the first place and am thinking I might actually nap with DS2 while DS1 is at school. I feel light headed and just a little bit queasy, not nauseous even just like if I don't eat I will be nauseous. Oh I hope it doesn't kick in again from 6 weeks like on the boys!!!
Wow what lovely dreams fiya and Violet x
I will also be getting the 12-13wk nuchal ultrasound/screening but have to get this dating scan done first to make sure all is ok then wait till my next appt to get the referral to book in for that. Hoping I can get a great nub shot. Where I go they also give me a video so no doubt I will be examining that very closely and pausing incessantly to find the perfect shot!! If only I could make up my mind about the damn harmony lol
Eek hopper - I hope it stays mild and doesn't blow out into hyperemesis for you!!

Fiya our scans are probably so close together! Mine is January 9th!! We will probably have Harmony results by then but won't peek because DH wants to have the fun of getting the ultrasound and guessing lol!
I fear that my gender desire is clouding my judgment too. I always called my boys "he" from the very beginning. This time I keep slipping and saying "she" but I try not to think much of it due to my gender desire.
I also have NO boy names left! We cannot agree on anything.
Awesome dreams Fiya and violet!!
@luvmyfam: I have mine on the 8th of January, but here in France they don't like to guess at that stage. I'm going to beg for a good nub image and I'm going to ask for a potty shot. But it's my birthday on the 24th of January and I'll ask my friend (midwive) for an extra scan at that stage (15 + 3) to be sure of the gender :giggle:
Not peak??? It would be impossible for me :nails:
