TTC a BOY April Chit Chat Thread

Your diet sounds so healthy. Mine is pretty good, but not that good!

We get the results of the tissue testing on Wednesday. I think we will find out what the sex was as well. I don't know if I want to know though?

Hi ladies Had a follow up scan today and placenta is partially covering my cervix(hence the bleeding so far!). Apparently I have placental lakes too. Anterior placenta and past csection scar may make it hard for the placenta to shift enough for a vaginal birth and in that case bub will need to come earlier before 35 weeks because i have my babies early they cant risk labour starting. I have hospital app on Friday.

Hope everything is ok. FX the placenta moves up and doesn't cause any problems.
Did you get a peek at bubs bits ?

I don't think I could handle knowing if it was a boy...it would totally eat at me, especially if I went on to have a girl next!

This. On the other hand, if we find out it was a girl then I'll know even my best swaying attempt didn't give me a boy so I think I will be absolutely fine with getting a girl next.

That's true...I wouldn't mind knowing it was a girl! You know some days I wonder if I tried to sway girl...might I be lucky and get a boy lol....the mind works in strange ways!!

No we did ask but reply was "I am not here to check the gender, I am putting 100% in to checking this placenta"

She was rude, wouldnt even print a photo for us.

Could they write it down and you could keep it in an envelope at home should you want to read and find out you can do some in your own private time? xx

5, sounds a little worrying? Is everything ok with the baby still?

PoP, if you have enough EWCM then I wouldn't bother with preseed. It's probably not what's stopping you conceiving but I guess the less foreign stuff we put into our bodies the better? Funny you should mention losing the swaying weight. I'm still eating boy friendly foods but have reduced my calorie intake quite a bit. It will probably end up giving me another girl though!

I dont really understand this lakes business but from what i can gather it can happen with placenta praevia? As for the low placenta given it is anterior and i have a csection scar we have to wait and see and pray it does shift enough if not it is csection and possibly an old fashioned entry too...

Yeah I thought about that. I guess I'll see how we feel on the day. DH is taking the day off work to come with me. After going to the appointment myself last time and finding out about the m/c on my own, he won't let me go to another ob appointment by myself again. Very sweet.
