Wow cinss!! Looks like a boy!! Is that what she said? Did you fall right off the table when she told you ?? Lol congrats!!!! Glad all this blue at least helped your cause!!
Cinss- HOORAY! That definitely looks like a little boy!
L2boys23- I'm going to guess that's a little girl!
Yes she said she is 70% positive its a boy, me and DP looked at each other with the biggest grins, then both of us teared up, then the tech checked again and again like 3 times to make sure, i guess because we got emotional she wanted to make sure and by the end she said she is very sure :) And yes thank you all of you for sending me all that blue dust! I am so very grateful.Quote:

Hi everyone! Hope you ladies are well today..
Hi, I'm due March 26th and hoping for a girl after one boy but haven't found out... yet! ;)
Huge congratulations Cinss, so happy for you!! :D
I'm so pleased for you cinss you've got all boy guesses woooohoooo!!! Xx
Yay Cinss I think it's a boy too!! Congratulations!!!! And welcome to the new ladies joining :)
Cinss - I am so excited for you! I know you are just so thrilled! I really hope this is the start of the good news on this thread!
I haven't really been posting as much...still trying to wrap my head around this little boy. I feel it in my bones that he is meant to be and will be perfect for my crazy boy-ruled family.
Last night was a little hard...we went trick or treating with some family and everyone was saying comments about "what if this was a girl" and getting really excited about it. Thank god DH has a strong intuition b/c he kept saying for everyone to hang it up b/c this is 99% a boy. He still has no idea!!! That made me feel better that he was the one saying it and not me.
I have also been obsessively trying to figure out my next baby plan. I have looked at HT and thought about swaying again. DH is really on board for whatever I want so luckily I get to make this decision. Something just doesn't feel right to me about HT (costs, stress,etc) so I think I feel satisfied that I have looked into it, but not something I really want to do. So, I am feeling better about another sway...maybe around December 2013 or so. Who knows how I will feel when he is here, but at least I have some kind of plan for now!
That's so good your dh is onboard NC, and that you're getting a plan together. As you say when you're holding your gorgeous little boy in your arms you'll love him to pieces and know that he was meant to be. xxx
Thankyou everyone for the congrats, DP cant wipe the smile off his face, he said he feels like he won the lotto :) And he is offering me lots of love and pampering now haha he is looking at me like i am extra special for giving him a son. He has also asked if he can be the one to name him, hmmm so far he likes the name Si, i am not sure about that just yet and sugested Cyrus then and Cy for short, he is thinking about it :)
So ynwa really did turn the luck around in this thread! 3Men and Lassie you guys are next, lets keep this trend going strong!!!
I am so pleased for you,I know just how you are feeling right now,hope this luck carries on,xQuote:

Cinss- Aww, :) that's sweet about your DH. Cyrus is cute, I like it.
Cniss! Congrats on you boy! That's such a boyish looking scan :)
My cousin and his wife finally found out what they are having, baby was being stubborn last week... It's a boy! I feel bad but I am happy it's a boy. It would have stung a bit if she got my girl, goodness does that sound selfish...

Thursday the 8th is my 12 week scan, hoping I get a helpful tech that will gladly give an opinion / take lots of shots...
if not then its only a 3week wait till our gender scan on 1st of Dec :)
Your DH sounds so sweet :)
Havn't had a chance to catch up on this thread yet but hope everyone and their bumps are well...
My elective gender scan is the 8th too!!! Lassie maybe that day will bring us both some great luck!!!
Congratulations Cinss............I am so happy for you! I pray I get the same news in a few weeks..... Yay for a boy in a house full of girls!:xy:
NC, having a plan always helps! I did that a lot when pregnant with DS2 and it worked--I did get my DD! And it really helped me when he was a newborn too...that we still had a chance at a DD. Now I'm feeling so greedy and selfish--I really want DD to have a sister and I can't get the idea out of my head (not now....or anytime soon!) but while I'm at work I'm already trying to pinpoint what would be the best time to try for my fourth and final baby. I'd like to try to plan the next one to be born around Feburary (don't know what year yet), becasuse a lot of my friends who didn't sway got a girl born in Feb. Plus I have a thing for birthstones, and my fave color is purple and I think that'd be a nice birthstone. (Yes, I think about these things wayyyy too much, lol.) Like I had thought thru with DD's potential birthstone of sapphire and how lovely that'd be for a DD to have, if she gets into the birthstone stuff. My birthstone is diamond (April is my birth month) and I hated it growing up lol, cuz it didn't have any color to it :P
And well, I think Dec. is a great time to TTC a girl, I guess I'm partial, since I got my DD from a Dec. conception..Sept is a nice birth month imo. I'm very happy with how it turned out.
OK, well, I think I talked enough crazy in this thread....
3men and Lassie, good luck on your scans on the 8th!! I so hope you get a good nub shot Lassie, and I hope you get great news that 2nd DD is on her way 3men!!!
mrshoneyz, I also do believe in our kids being meant to be with us. That thought gave me a lot of comforting when preggo with DS2 and then once he came...well, I can't imagine him not being here, even tho he is such a mischievous little boy!
I love having a plan for things...it makes me feel grounded! #4 will absolutely be our last baby so I really feel better about having #3 and #4 closer together. Then we can move out of the baby stage for good and it will be easier for me to say we had an "oops". LOL! It does seem like BF'ing and losing weight, getting no sleep does sway pink so who knows. It will make for one great last final sway.
My BFF has a baby due in Feb and she is having a girl :)
LOL I'm glad you said that about BFF having a girl due in feb...I don't know why, I think there is something magical about Feb, maybe because it's girl swaying peak season? (I believe it would be a May conception, if my math is right?)
Besides I think Feb. is currently a dreadful month...I get so tired of winter, and I think having a child's bday be in the Feb might change my perception of it and make it fun, something to look forward to after Christmas is over.
I would def. consider a Feb baby for sure but work has me nervous. I do work from home so that is awesome, but I have to save up 40 hours of PTO to cover first week of being out and then I have to have another 6 days (48 hours) to cover 100% pay for the next 5 weeks.
And then, if I want any time after that, I have to save up another 40 hours per week. With DS1 being an October baby, I had so much time saved up that I took the full 3 months off of work and with DS2, I was able to do the same thing. This one being born in April, I might only be able to take 2 months. But, it doesn't really matter in the scheme of things so I will just have to see what happens!
My BFF is 7 weeks ahead of me...I got preggo end of July.
that's a good point, ncbeachy. At my work they get 3 weeks PTO for the entire year avail in Jan, so for me ..its anytime.
That is a nice option! i wish we had it that way. I do have the option to purchase more PTO so that is always an option to!
I wish I had a job where I could work from home lol
Mine is due feb 1st officially and he is not a she!!:( maybe to on the cusp? Or it's just my typical luck that everyone is having one in February ( including my friend) but not me!
HI Ladies,
I would like to join you. I am due on March 17th. I swayed girl and am having a GIRL!!!!
Tiff
Maybe that is why I only have boys....I hit the lottery with my job! It seriously has been the best deal ever and I have so much freedom and flexibility, yet I get paid great and have so much experience that I could take to another company. It does get VERY stressful when I am juggling work and the kids and when things get crazy. But, it is so worth it! I don't think I could ever go back to working in an office again!Quote:

That would be my DREAM job! However, I'm also thinking about trying to get my ph.D in library science and eventually teaching it for an online library science program. That would be awesome too--I'd make great pay being a professor and be able to stay at home...sometimes I think the hardest part of my job is getting out of my pjs and leaving the house, rofl. I wish I could just do my job from home.
I head up a group of proposal managers (everyone is home-based) for a clinical research organization (CRO) in the Phase IV industry. Basically all the pharma/biotech companies will seek out bids to run studies to test their drug in a new indication, find new ways to use their drug, run marketing studies, review retrospective patient charts to get specific data for the FDA, etc. We stay very busy and lead the entire proposal process from leading strategy calls, putting together the proposal text and budget, and then finalizing for the client. This year alone our team has already sent out 650 proposals...between 10 ppl and won over $100M in new business. Lots of pressure and stress...prob. why I have boys too!
Auroara, I have an MLIS, too, but haven't worked in a library in a few years. It would be great to find a PhD program!
Tiff, welcome!
I am currently working out of the house, even though i have 7 kids, and I love it! I am in Canada, so we get a year of paid Mat leave as well. Once my year is up I do want to go back to work, I love being around adults :) But my DH is now saying that he does not want em going to back to work, he believes that I shoudl be at home with the kids. Money is not really a facotr, becuase i don't have to work, but I really love too!
Has anyone else had this dilemma?
