I haven't been obsessing over the gender but now that I have the blood draw in the works I am. I had a dream last night that I got the results back and it was a boy. It was literally a piece of paper with boy written all over it... Can't wait to get the results back. Now that the final answer is coming I'm anxious....

I'm anxious for you, Inforthree! FX for pink!
I have accepted what will be will be. I know I'll be fine with another boy, but I'm worried about my DH. I just hope and pray that we all did enough! I won't know for sure until the beginning of May at the earliest- I'll be 18 weeks then.
FX for all of us!

Boymama so sorry for your loss, please God all goes well this time round! I'm due the 5th of Oct :-) ... I'm finding out the sex the end of April, if you dream your having a boy then your having a girl ... So they say, I dreamt with my last son that I was having a girl so who knows!!! :-) ... This sickness is killing me but one thing that has helped is Green apples, I've had 5 already today

Boy Mama- I'm so sorry for your loss [emoji20]! I'm hoping and praying all is well with your rainbow baby!
Amelia- I too am having a rough go with morning sickness. Although I can only suck on Jolly Ranchers (fruit juice hard candy). Interestingly, I cannot eat fruit except for bananas. All fruit taste like cough medicine! I can drink fruit juice made from real fruit though, which is SO weird! I have NEVER had this in any of my pregnancies before! I'm sad because I am a big fruit eater [emoji20]. I haven't even gained any weight so far despite getting pretty bloated.

Oh bless u all with the symptoms but I'm I'm glad u both have a vice to get u through it be it fruit or candy whatever works !
Still no real symptoms here but tonight I don't feel right - Hubby's came back with a take away I've eaten some chips and a little pitta bread but couldn't stomach the chicken or the salad and the smell was making me feel sick too! I'm overwhelmingly tired though a short walk with the boys and I need a lie down which is so weird as I was so fit when swaying due to all the biking ! So I've defiantly got exhaustion as a symptom xx

XX since you are in the USA you should ask your doc about progenity Progenity It is a NIPT test that is only usually $100 if you have insurance. My doc offers it to just about all his patience.
I can finally chime in to say I'm definitely experiencing symptoms now. I've had a sick feeling that hasn't left me for two whole days...I wake up in the middle of the night and it's still there...which is really weird for me. I don't usually experience any symptoms throughout pregnancy fortunately but I think this time around my body is telling me I'm getting too old for this lol!!
I'm also super knackered all day and can't shift it...I plan to take advantage of the weekend and see if I can reenergize!
Oh buttercups welcome to the club ... Loads of stuff makes my stomach turn even watching stuff on the telly or different smells, I hope it subsides soon! I suppose our hormones are doubling by the week so it's least we can expect, as long as it all settles down soon! We had a pizza takeaway, plain thin based margheritta for me, the plainer and simpler food the better

I'm just wondering is this morning/all day sickness an age think, they do say the older you get the harder it is, must be some truth to it, I'm 37
Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk
Maybe...I'm 37 too. It's hard to really reflect because how I feel in the moment overshadows how I may have felt in the past. I will say that I'm glad I'm not feeling the fatigue like I have in other pregnancies. It was so bad with my DS1 that I slept through a remodel of our main bathroom next to our bedroom. I literally slept through them jack hammering the concrete! Crazy!

Lol i was like that too until the nausea kicked in.
Congratulations on ur bfp xo
I know how you feel. I have three boys and trying to accept the great possibility I'll have four!! Never dreamed of it but love my boys!
Exciting!! Keep us posted!
Yeah boy mama i love my boys too so much . Iam also preparing myself to hear boy too. My sway wasnt strick unfortunately due to the loss i had in August last year i was on the diet for 26 weeks and just couldn't do it again full on .
Does anyone have any suggestions about terrible taste i cant stand it :shrug:
I think the best we can do is prepare to hear boy and then see who actually hears girl !
Can't for the updates to start rolling in! I have my first scan in a week and can't wait to see a heart beat xx

Faith- What helps me with the terrible taste is to brush my teeth or suck on Jolly Ranchers. They are made with real fruit juice and help to take the taste away. Anything mint flavored makes me gag!

I agree! I'm expecting this to be boy #4. It will be exciting to see what we are all having! I have my first scan on Tuesday, and I'm super excited! I'll be 8w3d so will definitely look like a little baby [emoji4]!
We had to tell my boys and my In-laws we are expecting. I've been so sick (actually throwing up) that everyone has been worried about me. They think I have the flu! We had our older boys write a story about things in life that come in fours, and we ended it with "and the Anderson family". My DS1 started to jump up and down and asked if I was pregnant again. I said yes, and he gave me the biggest hug! He said our DS3 gets to be a big brother! My DS2 wants twins- either 2 girls or a boy and a girl [emoji15]!

That's so sweet xx ... Haven't told ours yet because they'll blab it to everyone down the school and everyone Will know, so going to hold out till 11/12 wks I think, good luck with your scan nxt week. I sipped on a can of coke all day today and the it has helped so much I'm starting to feel a bit normal again, feel so bad drinking it tho especially pregnant but it so settles my stomach!

The thoughts now of finding out the gender makes me feel so sick, evwrytime it enters my head it's like a bout of anxiouness in my stomach, God love me on the day of the scan bag of nerves!

Our oldest are close in age! My DS1 is 6.5yr, my DS2 is 3.5yr, and my DS3 is 15mo.

Awe, hang in there sweetie! I'm sure I'll end up being the sway opposite in this DDG like I was the last time with my DS3. All but 4 got their DG. I really think nothing short of divine intervention could allow me and my DH to have a DD, haha!

I'm 100% certain only Divine intervention will get me a DD!
I have no sway and literally just hopes and prayers at this point lol!!
Ladies, I've seen on some of the other Due Date Groups a list of ladies usernames, along with whether they swayed or not, and then ultimately the Gender they ended up having confirmed. Is it possible we could get something like that put up here?
If it's not something other people prefer to have up then that's fine too!
We've pretty much decided to forgo all scans and go team green :D we still have time to think about it. I'm just happy to be pregnant after so long. I was worried my equipment wouldn't work for some reason LOL.
I can't kick my afternoon tea u_u I'm so tired. I'm starting to relax with my diet and in the process of cutting most dairy out. Just keeping 1 serving of greek yogurt and cream for my tea. I also saved alot by not buying a variety of nuts today.
Ough, I gained like 20Lbs on HE without eating a single bite of junk. All it took for me was to eat every couple of hours and up I went.
I'm. So. Sick. 🤢I'll be relieved to see only one baby on Tuesday! I may have to break down and get something. This time around I have the puke sensation type of nausea. The bad thing is, even if I do puke I don't end up feeling better [emoji20]. Magnesium doesn't help either, which it did when puking a ton with my DS1. Ugh. 🤢[emoji4] My sea bands don't help, which I'm not surprised because I don't have the dizzy type of nausea like I did with my DS2. I thought this might be a severe case of sour stomach like with DS3 but Zantac (Ranitidine) doesn't help either. Sigh. I can't even suck on frozen fruit because fruit tastes like cough syrup [emoji30]

I had reflexology yesterday and that made me feel better for 24 hours x

I even eat small meals more frequently and keep snacks super small. I have even played with the carb/protein/fat ratios to see if that makes a difference. The one thing I'm going to try that I haven't yet, is eating more veggies. Since I have a super strong fruit aversion, maybe veggies will help. I'm thinking of picking up sweet red and orange peppers (yellow and green can cause acid reflux), celery and seeing if those help any. I make a yummy cheese dip for the peppers, and I'm thinking of nut butter and raisins for the celery.

Xx that's so awful nausea is bad but being sick is worse I think it's so unpredictable .
Is anyone else not experiencing nausea / sickness ??
I still don't have sore boobs I feel like I should ?
Amelia bless u I feel the same we've been big time shopping today for house bits and saw so much lovely girl stuff in mothercare , Marks & Spencer and I sooooo hope I have a girl in here I know it's awful but I don't want buy anymore blue ... pink please !!! Even my hubby was picking clothes up and shouting acrosss the shop 'look at these leggings!' (With flowers all over !) he's never been so into a pregnancy like this time ...
Cosmo I also have written a post about this - maybe staying team green so if i manage to it'd be great to have someone in the same boat :)
