Ladies due in Sept/Oct/Nov 2012, gather here!

I change daily - some days I'm convinced this is another boy, and other days I start to get my hopes up that it could be a girl. Not long for me - I'll know in 8 days!!

ok i have just been reading into the ramzi theory and looking at scans, as on my scan last week i didnt get a pic I had a vaginal scan and when he showed me on the screen everything was on the left hand side. Does this indicate girl? dont worry not going to get my hopes up! Just curious, it is reliable at 6+1 weeks? Or is ramzi theory better later on?

when I had my internal scan with DS at 6.5 weeks he was on the left of the picture which apparently is a reflection, so would be on the right inside the body... BUT you have to know if it was done in the transverse plane or not (they can flip the picture at a touch of a button, so you need to know if right really is left or not)

I'm feeling quite disheartened at the moment.. it seems like EVERYONE who I know who has swayed (or even just hoped) for a certain gender has found out they are getting the gender they wanted since the start of the year.

Surely, by odds, we can't all be that lucky and I can't help feeling that it'll be me who is the first to get an opposite/balance the odds!

Also more frustrating is that it's already decided, all that changes is that I don't know yet. At least when TTC you have some more influence, once you get the BFP there's nothing you can do.

I just don't feel like I'll ever be that lucky to get a girl!

sorry for the negative post

I really really really really felt like that too (because it wasn't just people on this site, but IRL and other online friends too all having pink), but the thing is, if swaying works, which I believe that it does, it may totally be possible for most of us to get our DG even if there are long runs of pink. Good luck and peace of mind!

thanks Atomic, it's the same for me - not just on here but other forums/IRL too. I seriously can't name one person who has had an opposite yet this year!
I guess you never know it could be one of those flukes where we all get our dreams come true.. but I still don't feel that lucky

ETA - nice ticker btw!

Rainbow i too feel the same, its IRL i see so many people getting their girls that i think that the luck has got to run out before it gets to me I just want 1 is it really too much to ask for in life?? On here i see lots with 3 boys getting their girl and think it has got to stop and it will be at me when it does

we all get our desired gender

Well i dont have a clue if the scan was transverse or not so will try not to obsess of that too much then. I just been looking at gender tests on the internet and just wish my 12 week scan would hurry up so i can prehaps nubsess instead of thinking about doing silly tests.

rainbow - I feel the same exact way. While I'm ecstatic for all the lovely ladies who've gotten their DG, everytime I hear about someone's success I think 'now it's even less likely it'll happen to me'. In my previous due date buddy group from before my m/c I think all but 2 ladies got their desired gender. How unbelievable is that?? I know it makes no sense, but I too feel like that luck is going to run out. It makes me feel like the same thing's going to happen to me as happened when I swayed with ds3 - I was just about the only person in my IG due date buddy group who DIDN'T get their DG. Really, in a sense, we should feel more optimistic every time we hear about a success, because it means swaying WORKS, but then I just think about all the things I messed up with my sway and it makes me feel worse. At this point I feel like I have about as much chance of hearing I'm having a girl as I have of winning the lottery.

I hate to say it, HappyLea, but for me nubsessing has made the whole thing WORSE. I am sooooo obsessed now and can't let it go - I spend all my free time looking at nub shots and comparing them to mine. Really, although there are some very obvious shots like TTC5's, most are a lot more ambiguous, and people's guesses are really just that...guesses. I let myself get carried away by all my pink guesses, and now I'm worried it's going to make it worse if I hear boy.

Mocha i feel same maybe we should all buy a lottery ticket, i feel i have a better chance off winning that then getting my girl.

I do hope swaying works but i also messed up some of mine too

Ohh i hope we hear lots here getting their desired gender, it gives me some hope that it can happen to me. I do hope there is enough luck to go around to everyone
