September TTC Boy Chit Chat and Such Thread

Congrats 3pnb.....u did it! Felt so good reading it.

Jen, I was lurking for a while to read this great news. Big congrats on your lil boy. Hope 4th is charm thing also works for me next time :) Congrats you and your family.
And hi to all!! I am doing good so far, except gestational diabet torture. Poking my fingers several time a day and limit the food thanks God 6 weeks to go :) Best wishes to all...

flava- dh thinks bil will say nothing. I think that'll probably happen too, but watching him deflate will be all sorts of fun lol We haven't really discussed names yet, I didn't want to love a boy name and then hear girl so we literally agreed not to mention anything till we knew but then dh was too tired to have any real discussions yesterday so I'm sure we'll be all over it today :)

Cemas- thanks!

Boyjoy - By IG standards my sway was a disaster. No ions, ate forbidden foods, ph was way too low, I didn't temp or track my minerals, I only took a few sups and no drinks. I really think it was the high everything diet, the extra calories, the Vit D and the massive amounts of natural cm I had that got me here. Well I can't forget the relaxed attitude of this site, I really think not trying to get everything up to IG standards did my body wonders! FX for #4!

Popping on between birthday parties to see if Jen gave us some details and BINGO! Yay :) What a great story, LOL about your comment on not getting fat for no reason! So happy you were all in there together; what a wonderful family memory!

Boyjoy nice to see you, sorry to hear about the gest diab! I had my test Friday and am waiting on results Monday. I can't believe you're 33 weeks now! And my FX that 4th time is the charm for you as well!!

Skrimpy my appointment is at 10:30 central so I'll probably have an update for everyone sometime before noon. It'll just depend on how long it takes me to have the guts to look at the results, since I'm not going to have them just tell me ... although I guess like Jen I could end up SEEING it myself, but even that I won't trust until I see it written.

Off to continue the bday party circuit!

I just noticed I was so excited I said It's boy instead of it's A boy lol Here's the story and few things I left out over the last few days. I had completely convinced myself I'd hear girl, I had no hope I'd ever hear boy so I was anxious all morning knowing as soon as I went to the u/s even the slightest hope was gone and I'd be left with the reality of 4 girls and I was pretty ok with that actually. Well we went to the midwife appt where my mw kept referring to the baby as he. From there we went over to the mall for some lunch and a trip to Build-A-Bear before my mom took the kids. Well right when my mom was rounding up the girls to take dd1 to choir dd1 had a change of heart and said she wanted to come. Well since my mom was there we all headed back over to the hospital where we got a tiny room, we wedged ourselves in and waited for the show to begin. The u/s tech asked right off if we wanted to know and we said yes. She started to measure and then tried to get a peek, no luck. Measure, try to get a peek, measure, try to get a peek, measure try to get a peek. It went on for a while, I thought I would have a heart attack. Finally the little goober gave her a good view, she looked at me and I said "it's a boy?!" and she said yes. I started to cry for a second, the only thing I could say was "I didn't get fat for no reason" my mom busted up laughing. I looked at the screen and she was measuring again, I whipped out my phone and sent a quick text, an e-mail to princessap and posted here. Yes that's right I posted while still on the table :rofl: I asked her about the size of the baby since I'd measured a bit big, she showed me the estimations and he's dead on to my O date. Dr came in and by now he was all for showing himself off, every time they tried to look at the legs boom penis, show us feet boom penis. He was determined to let us know he was most definitely a HE. On the other hand he (man I love saying that :bigsmile:) was not willing to give us a decent profile, the dr and the tech tried repeatedly and we got the one face shot I posted but not a full body shot. We went to Kohl's and we bought a few outfits based on fact not hope, I can't tell you how amazing it was to buy things for our actual son! The girls were now running around looking at everything blue and cute, they have luckily warmed up super fast. Jon flew in from Texas that morning so it was now 4ish and he'd been up since 2, after only a few hours sleep he was as happy as he could muster. Everyone is going over to my in-laws today so we can tell them all at once without having to assemble them ourselves. I can't wait to see the looks on their faces in that evil way lol

B- I totally get your feelings on finding out. I had gd something awful after dd3, I really think swaying gives you an "at least I tried" feeling. I honestly don't think men analyze like we do, they just don't sit there wondering if everything means something. So excited you're finding out MONDAY!!! Ah my chance to stalk you!!

TTC5- I gave up temping, way to frustrating. Boo for YI, nasty little bastards!

Flava - actually he's looking down, which explains the abuse to my hipbones and cervix lol

Iluv - I'm no good at guesses but that is a great looking baby ya got there! So glad it's doing well!

Jen what was your diet like? Did you check your pH and what was it? I must say a few months of being here I am much more relaxed than when I was on IG!!

Oh sorry to bug you again (but you have now given me sooo much hope!) did you use pre seed or egg white?

6 weeks woweee sooo close now! you guys having a suprise? xx

ASF - ok this is going to sound crazy but I can not get it out of my mind!! I am going to have a few cycles off birth control before trying, so prob won't attempt until Dec. Only because, for me and everyone in my family and most people I know who were on the pill, had girls after coming off it. Anyway.. if I try Dec I would be due September now what has me sooo paranoid is that Cherie22 predicted September either being due/findout/fall preg and that it would be a girl :(

WWYD .... would you skip Dec and try in January OR do you think she is full of #*&%??

Help put my mind at ease :(

TTC5, I have a thread going on here somewhere about psychics. Cherie22 told me girl as well for August, but then Jenny Renny told me Boy, getting pregnant in Oct. So who knows? I found that once I started telling psychics I was hoping for a boy, miraculously they predicted boy! I am too old to be skipping a bunch of months, so I hope we get pg in Oct and then the psychic that told me boy will be right!

3PNB, what a great story! I am still so excited for you! I hope I am as lucky!

Begonia, you're next! I will be stalking you on Monday. I admire your patience, having them write it down for you. You might be able to see it on the screen, though, if you have a baby showing his goods like 3PNB does!
