Finally let go and prayed for God's will and only afterwards realized it could be born on this day. Probably just silly coincidence and very unlikely but it gives me a little peace anyways :)Quote:

Probably mainly just my crazy dreams, but with my boys my two biggest symptoms were terrible fatigue and unsatisfied hunger! Well...my appetite has picked up the past few days. I'm not quite as tired (though has terrible insomnia like with DS2) but I'm not working this time and it's still early. I know everyone's symptoms can be different and every pregnancy is different...but oh how I long to get a little morning sickness or sore boobs! Everyone of my friends that has kids has at least one girl and they all got some degree of MS. I know this is our last child and I don't want to always have a deep yearning to know what it would be like to have a little girl.
As for Chinese Gender Chart - it was wrong once and right once. Be sure to change your age to your Chinese age when checking, I know some girls that didn't know that.
Anyways...I'm praying for all of us that we get our girls, and whoever wants my blue dust....take it please!!
From 2 to 3, I didn't know that- thanks! With my Chinese age it predicts girl! It's funny, my conscious mind doesn't see any reason to believe the chart emotionally it feels a lot better to see my hoped for gender there.
Aidansmum, was your 6th sense right with all your kids?
Thanks for the warm welcome!
from2to3- I am scared too. This is most likely our last baby because I have had a pretty rough road with surgeries and my c-sections that my ob is not psyched about me having #4 but is ok with it. Chances are she'll cut me off after this one though. My head keeps telling me not to kid myself and without swaying, what are the chances of a girl after 3 boys! Of course its a boy. But my heart keep telling me that if there is any higher power out there that life wouldn't be so cruel not to give me a girl after all I've been through to have this baby. Its not like I don't want to have a boy, its the thought of my dream for a daughter never coming true that tortures me. I just don't want to live always desperately wanting something I'll never have, and always wondering what she would have looked like and what kind of relationship we could have had etc. I just can't even think about it cause it only upsets me.
I almost just don't want to know, I'm too scared that hearing "boy" will throw me off into having to face my fear of never having a dd. In the past with my boys, of course I was upset, but I always knew that there would be one more, I would have another chance. But this time is so final - I don't have another chance after this one and I'd finally have to accept never having a dd and I'm not sure how to do that yet. I think its something I would struggle with for a very long time.
I too had a dream the other night. A fortune teller told me I was having a boy and that I would have another baby and that would be a boy too. All boys she said. I was like "Nooooo!" I hope its not a sign.
Not sure I believe in chinese calendar, lets face it -- its 50/50. Wish I could think it was true cause it says girl for me, but I'm not buying stock in it.
My pros are that:Quote:

There won't be the horrible bad hair days (I *hated* getting my hair done every morning - so tangled and frizzy and painful to brush). Hoping LO gets daddy's hair.
And yes, the thought of teenage girl hormones makes me twitch...
Welcome, prayforprincess! I really do hope this is your little girl - shame the sway didn't go as planned! That's one determined little baby. FX for a H&H 9 months x
I don't put much trust in these things. Had a go for fun though and mine came out with boy, too. I honestly think it'll be a boy. DH thinks girl, my 5 year old niece thinks girl and DH's aunt has decreed she thinks it's a girl, therefore it must be a girl. At 15 weeks, there's a fair chance I can find out once and for all, but worried about being told one thing now and and something else after on. Will have to wait for a little longer and see...Quote:

Welcome to the new moms! Prayforprincess I also have 3 boys as many of the other ladies. I also did ht twice with no success and decided to sway. I found out I am having a little girl so it's very possible after ht.
I also think the Chinese chart said boy for me so dont put much stock into that. It's never been right for me.
