Wish I knew sky! Just copied mine for somewhere when I finally get to do one. You could probably do that or ask Atomic where you find it at.

Sky have you tried going through this link that Nuthinbutpink has in her first post here?
BOY ATTEMPT SURVEY SYSTEM- HOW TO POST YOUR SWAY INFO UPON BFP(Before you know gender)
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Is anyone else just despising their husbands? As in, they haven't really done anything wrong but just the thought of them or sight of them at the moment makes you want to rage and be no where near them? Hormones??
Pbn - I tried that link but it does nothing. I even tried to create a post where it says add your sway but it's not showing the template to put my info. I tried so many times. Don't know what to do.
Dancingdiva- I feel like dh and dd make a team and do the opposite of everything I want them to do. I get so upset with dh these days. [emoji52] Last night, we decided that I won't say no to anything dd asks and will just direct her to dad. God! Biggest mistake. She is living the dream now. [emoji12]And I am going nuts. I hate these hormones and my type A personality. [emoji849]

Sorry sky I just went searching on the desktop site as well and can't find the link to the form?? The ttc a girl one is still there and the link takes you to a doc to fill out but I cannot find the boy one at all???!!! Looking at posted sways it should be there under the add your boy sway forum but I cant find it either [emoji53] Hopefully someone who's recently filled one out will post the link.

OMG! It was the worst with both my DS1’s and this pregnancy! I threw a remote at him super hard, because he kept pushing MY buttons and getting a kick out of it! This pregnancy I’ve really had to regulate myself because of the kids. I’ve said to him numerous times, “Please stop! I’m having trouble controlling myself!” If that doesn’t work I say, “You need to stop because I will hurt you!” [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]!

Anyone ever had back Labor before? So this may be tmi but I've mentioned it before dh sperm send me into labor, I have always had strong and consistent contractions after a deposit [emoji23] so I am and did with last pregnancy take shots. Last pregnancy I still managed to go into labor before they were out of my system and had contractions when he would release inside. So new pregnancy he just "has" to test it out to see if I still react the same (I guess he is hopeful) I haven't been having any contractions the last few times so he just keeps going. But today I am not having contractions but like pressure down the backs of my legs unless I am setting. Anyone ever experience this? I'm hoping this is not an indication that I'll have a back labor this time because I've been spared the last 4

Back Labor is felt right in your lower back and butt, down to your tail bone. It sucks major ass! It’s just like contractions but felt in the locations I mentioned. What you are mentioning sounds to me like sciatic nerve pain, which radiates down the backs of you legs. This typically flares up due to baby’s position or from your uterus causing your pelvis to expand.
Hope you find relief soon!

Thanks! It's not to bad of pain and goes away if I take pressure off my legs like set or something but it must be babies position after sex ?? Causing this pain. It's more annoying than painful... maybe I could just take sex off the list [emoji23][emoji23].
How are you feeling? You have an appointment tomorrow right?
[emoji170](07) [emoji170](09) [emoji170](14)[emoji170](15)[emoji166] EDD 1-15-18[emoji166]
Something tells me your DH may not go for that, Ash [emoji23][emoji23]! I think it’s just the luck of the draw and it’s baby’s position. I hope it goes away!
I’m feeling crampy but that’s about it. If she does come, it will have to be sometime overnight. My appointment tomorrow is 9:45am central time. I’m sure we will be talking a lot about the next steps. I keep thinking we may just have to coax her a bit like with my DS1. Time will tell! She may surprise us yet!

Ash, if your Dh’s semen gets you reacting so strongly, def wear a condom???
But does sound like sciatic nerve pain – having said that if it’s only annoying could just be ligament pain which can be annoying (or downright painful) because a sciatica hurts like a b*tch lol – I get it all the time, and it doesn’t take much for it to start! Positioning & Physio helps if that is the issue ;)
Dancing – OMG I feel like that often – and not just when preggers lol
Sky – can’t wait for your sway and knowing its’ outcome!
Hope hubby has been good at helping getting the packing done!
XX – FX missy makes her appearance tonight then ! :D
OMG – BH are back – I could literally feel the hard ball of my uterus all weekend on an off, so easy to find the fundus – it actually woke me a few times during the night …sigh
Ok, since bub measured ahead last week, we are now starting week 14 meaning hello 2nd trimester if I am not mistaken! :D
Dh and I had a lovely anniversary lunch on Saturday – the girls were good and had fun at their godparents’ – here’s to hoping we might be able to let them be watched here and then by them hehe
Oh and our aircon is getting installed today – sooooo friggin’ excited!!
Downside is budget – we are looking at me going back full time (am 4 days/week atm – not that it changes my workload sigh) until I start mat leave to accrue more mat leave/ leave/pay over the next few months - …so I guess hope I can get a spot a daycare for each of the girls now! Not looking forward to the extra day/week of public transport whilst pregger – ah well, will have to expose that belly so there is no denying I have an inhabitant and people will have to be courteous :rofl:
Trying to catch up! Just got back from the best family vacation, but y'all if I didn't see so many 2 older girl, 1 baby boy families - ugh!! I just have to chant comparison is the thief of joy over and over. Really hate I feel this way. Our girls are so excited about the baby girl though. I went paddle boarding in the ocean and they were cheering for her, it was hilarious! We have a name, I'll post on FB page.
Ash - you need to tell DH to chill! Can you do other things besides sex? I just don't want you to go into labor too soon. I'm surprised your OB doesn't tell you to refrain. And my votes for baby girls names are either Eloise or Naomi [emoji175] I'm totally obsessed with Twilight too but does Esme really go with your boys name?? I thought they were more traditional for some reason.
Sooo after vacation I'm up 15 pounds at 20 weeks, my norm. I'll be up 30 by the time she's born - blah. And this is with me trying. I'm still exercising [emoji23]

Blue - sorry about your babies health scare! Did you decide when you will find out gender?
Sky - yay for October - I so think you and Blue have a blue baby in there [emoji170]
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thanks Kat. I am already a bit stressed about the health so didn't want to add another gender stress on top. We didnt tell our families yet either even though they r on to us when we say we havent had the scan yet.
Will wait for the MFM appointment this friday and hopefully if its not as bad as my OB sounded as then i will muster strength to give it a look.
The thing is my OB read the sonogram and not a radiologist which is giving me hope that it might just be a angle/view based error and that when we go for the 3D it will turn out to be nothing🤞. Either way i just hope and pray the findings dont have an associated chromosomal anomaly.

USA ladies. How long do NIPT tests take in resulting ? I am suspecting if the sonogram abnormalities persist on the follow up USG they would want to do the NIPT.
This wait and uncertainty is just killing me !! Friday can't come any sooner [emoji45]

Bluebooties- on average 7-14 business days. Mine this time came back in 6 business days (8 complete days), and with my DS3 the results came back in 5 business days.

Blue - that makes sense! I hope your right too. My blood tests took 5 business days. Did your OB act concerned or just say that she's not sure so sending off?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
She did seem concerned and didnt want to commit to anything just said we will refer you to MFM. bcoz as soon as she said fluid around heart and in brain i said "that could be downs syndrome right". If it was just fluid in one place its not too bad of a deal usually but there is increased fluid in 2 different places.
Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Sky- Good luck! I believe my bloodwork took about 9 business days.
Mommy2apples - fingers crossed for a bfp tomorrow!
Bluebooties-super cute baby!
Ash - I had back labor with DD2 and it was like a searing, highly uncomfortable pain just above my tailbone that went down one thigh and it radiated around my side to my belly, I wanted to pull my spine out. My epidural was also put in crooked so that could be why it was just one side. I had sciatica with her pretty bad though too.
Oh blue - ok. Please update us Friday. I'll be praying until then. Do you have any factors for increased risk of downs, age, family history? I'm 35 so I got all the blood work done that gave positive/negative versus the %s like in my past pregnancies. Hopefully you'll have the blood work back by Friday too.

Bluebooties it's a terribly long wait for you and I hope you're able to keep busy in the meantime. I will have everything crossed for positive news from your appt. Hang in there xxoo

Kat did I miss the name you've picked on the fb page? That's awesome you had a fantastic vacation! Love that your girls were cheering for their baby sister [emoji179] I really like that saying 'comparison is the thief of joy' and will remember it next time I'm feeling jealous/envious of things out of my control [emoji3]
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Bluebooties- I know the wait is the worse. I am praying for you and the baby. I hope you are right and the OB just misread it. Hang in there. Hugs.
Kat - Glad that you had a great vacation. How cute of your girls to be so excited. I am sorry about that feeling of comparison. I used to feel when we were ttc and whenever I would see anyone pregnant. And then I would imagine that I am going to freak out once I do get pregnant because then I would start worrying
about the gender. So many hugs. It's only natural to feel this way. So let yourself feel it. Can't wait to hear the name. ❤️And I too loved that saying too. So many feelings in just one sentence.

Blue – I will be thinking of you and hope that you get reassurance on Friday – the wait is a killer – FX a specialist tech will be able to rule out issues : as you’re right, your OB is probably not the expert eyes you need in case of doubt and may well have misinterpreted images.
Kat – how great you had a lovely break (you are so petite and fit, don’t worry too much about the weight gain hon you look fab!), and how cute are your girls cheering on their baby sister! I know so so so so much how you feel, and try to remind myself just what you said – not to spoil things by being jealous – but darn it’s hard! And as happy as you can be for others, when you long for that son, it cuts really deep when others get what you so wish you had, too. :hugs: my SIL’s 2nd bub is looking very much like it could be a 2nd boy and GD is coming back when I thought I was being so positive etc
Didn’t see the name for DD3 on FB – will have to go stalk now! :D
Ash – like Kat am biaised for the name Eloise hehe – I do like Esme though!!
Sky – how are you feeling? Like Kat am so convinced you have a boy in there ;) I wish you’d just go and ask your hubby now :rofl:
PBN – how are you? It’s been a while since we’ve seen your bump :D
My little E is 2 today – she was just the cutest this morning when she walked into our room and I wished her a happy birthday, she was just so excited – love her to bits that kid!
The electrician was still working on the installation last night (woohoo we have aircon!) so no power so had to go out for dinner - and only got to bake her daycare Bday cake super late – so had to decorate it etc. in a rush this am – not the best or prettiest but meh, 2 year olds probs don’t care as long as they get to eat cake haha
Oh and likely will go back to 5d/w at work – have a spot for the girls on Fridays at daycare and frankly, as much as it breaks my heart, financially would put us in a better position as will be able to earn some more before mat leave, accrue more annual leave and get paid more on mat leave too as they determine your pay based on how much you’ve worked the past 12 months….
M, my eldest is not keen, but I think we don’t have much of a choice – and did tell her that Mummy would be much more available next year as Mummy will be on leave for some months while baby sister is still tiny….
Sigh – can’t ever win eh? I need to win the lotto, methinks!
Happy birthday to your sweet girl lmsm! I think 1-2 is my favorite age!
Sorry you will need to go back to work. It's always tough! Me and you both need to win the lotto!

Ladies, I’ve really been struggling since we got the news on Friday that baby is a boy. I feel so awful feeling this way about my baby that I don’t even know yet, but I can’t help but feel like he should be my daughter instead. I try to rationalize during the day how wonderful it will be for my husband and that I’ll eventually know that it was the right thing for our family, but for right now, it stings. We told the girls the news over the weekend and while DD1 was excited, DD2 said “mommy, I wish it was a girl so I could have another sister”. I don’t think I’ll forget that, ever. I’m just kind of at a loss as to how we got the boy after such a strong girl sway, and Kat and LMSM you got girls after wanting a boy so badly. It just doesn’t seem fair. I’m having a hard time sleeping at night…I’m up all hours thinking about the dynamic of how a boy 6 and 8 years younger will fit in with the girls, and pray that they’ll form the bond that I was hoping another daughter would. Anyway, just have to get this off my chest. Never thought I’d be dealing with gender disappointment, but I think I unfortunately officially have it….
Lmsm! Sure would love that. According to ff 12dpo
