Hello Myrainbowgirl. I hope you don't mind me commenting on your post, but after reading it I wanted to offer you my support. I too am preg with fourth (three boys). Don't know as yet if this one is a boy but I feel like it is. With all the others we told everyone fairly early on. With this one I don't want to tell anyone until I'm practically popping it out!!! lol. I'm huge already (13w3d) so I doubt it'll be much longer. And the reason I don't want to say anything is because of the stupid comments I know I'll get - like you have. I'm so sorry for all the ignorant people you may have to come across.
I'm actually ok if I have a boy. This is def last baby for us. Too make matters worse, on my side of the family there were only grandsons until my only sister had a lovely girl 13 weeks ago. Now everyone saying I bet you want a girl now. Ugh!! Like the only reason you want a baby is because someone else has one!!!
I hope you enjoy the rest of your pregnancy...that it's idiot free...and you have a lovely healthy bub at the end.
As another mum of four mentioned to me 4 of the same sex is rare and special. It's all up to the fates. Bless us all with healthy babies - no matter the sex.
Bunnywabbit and Pumpkin............I am so thrilled for both of you! Now Sunflower and TTCpink...it is your turn next!!!!! Praying for sticky pink beans all around!!!!
Myrainbowgirl...how did all the travel and seeing family go? How are you are and your new little man feeling?
Meeks...have you done any more shopping at all? I did by a few used clothes a little bit ago, but pretty much it is all at a standstill in the baby department here.
Emily....any news on the flights? How are you feeling about the travel the closer it gets? Have your boys sustained any more injuries??? Hopefully, it has been calm sailing at your house in these last few months!!!!
Dream...how is the new house??? How settled do you feel with the new location? Any baby news to report?
Charlee...I have been thinking and praying for you a lot this last week. How are you and your wee gentleman doing? I hope that he is still getting bigger and stronger inside you.... ((((hugs))))
AFM....our renal scans ended up being rescheduled, same with the 32 week u/s for baby. I am counting down the week of work until mat. leave....feeling very tired with all the work on the shed/shop also coming to a close as well.
Welcome Mom of 3 boys!!!!
And Gecon...lovely little sleeper! You must be buying up a storm for your boy!!! He is going to be one smartly dressed chap :)
Hi ladies,
Thanks for all your condolences...was so glad to be able to go and be with my family!
Pumpkin & bunnywabbit - CONGRATS!! So happy to hear. Stick, babies, stick!!
Mumof3boys - Thank you for your encouragement! So far, that one comment is the only truly negative one I've heard. Fx for you to get your baby girl! Will you find out?
For the most part, I didn't hear any negative comments while I was on my trip...so happy about that! And really so far, only one truly negative comment...praying it stays that way. I know I need to just let it go even if I do hear it, but it's tough. Why oh WHY do I let other people's opinions matter?? Ugh. Working on it!
Baby boy is still pretty quiet...but overall feeling more movement, so not worried. Can't believe I'm 21.5 weeks already...time has been absolutely flying this pregnancy! We'll be holding our babies before we know it!
17 DPO (estimated 4+0). Cramping disappeared while I was out all day yesterday. Back again as predicted but still mild. Don't want to count my chickens yet, but thinking it looks like a better line today. Not sure if it's enough of a change from the last one I took though.

I believe this week should be implantation week (if it hasn't already). Really hoping the little bean makes it through the week.
Implantation has already happened hon, the embryo doesn't omit hcg (which is what is measured on the preg tests) until it implants. As you know, every 48hrs the hcg roughly doubles BUT don't stress about line darkness because your urine can be more or less diluted even if you always hold all night and use fmu, what you drank or ate and what your body used each day can affect the output. Atomic reminded me of that when I was bfp-obsessing like you, and it helped me relax. Hope I have done the same.
Well I am booked on a flight but not sure if I will actually fit in the seat as they cannot confirm that I have extra legroom yet! I am flying just before 36 weeks so will be big but not about to pop!
Thanks for asking - apart from a mild motorbike burn on DS1s leg (do not ask!) we are all healthy and without incident!
Bunnywabbit that is still a very BFP - fingers crossed for you.
Ladybugs sorry your scan has been delayed and hope you can take it easy till mat leave.
Exciting news, Emily. At least you know things are sorted. When will you be flying out and do you know where you will be giving birth in the UK yet?
