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

[Butterfly Spirit]

And TRUST me Pinkin' the majority here at GD have got it wrong before..

We aren't experts

[pinkin2011]

I understand that but I have seen you guys be right alot of the time too!

[Mochagirl]

pinkin, I think we all completely understand the feelings you're going through since most of us have been there, but butterfly's right: there's no point in mourning something that hasn't even happened yet. I don't see anything obviously boy in your nub shot, and that skull is definitely girly. Actually, even your nub reminds me a little of mine.

I got LOTS of boy votes - nearly 50% when I count them all up, though most of them were on IG and elsewhere. Like you, I had convinced myself it was a boy and was upset with no proof. It ended well for me, and I really hope it will for you too.

Today's the big day, ladies: my 20 week scan. In about 4 hours I'll know whether or not my baby really is a girl. I'm so scared there'll be a penis there this time!!

Pinkin ~ so glad you and Dh have decided not to take the meds. Please do not rule yourself out this early especially without confirmation. I have just looked at skull on yours and i do think it looks abit like mine, not too much difference. Mine has all girl votes and i too like you when i first saw baby on screen thought it was a girl, i got that vibe. I think mine is a boy also tho, but i am trying not to let it get to me until i know for sure and then i will deal with it. Please find out and then deal with it, you could very well be getting yourself upset and disappointed for no reason. We are not experts who guess and we do get it wrong. I wanted to wait to find out but i know i cant, i want to know either way. More to prepare myself if it is a boy. DH and I were going to have gender scan and tell no one but mum paying half but still may not tell her as i know she cant keep a secret.

Mocha ~ Good luck today, your pregnancy seems to be flying by

Well im not having a good day my dog had a consultation at specialist today as she has problem with her nose getting infected and doesnt seem to get better. They kept her in to do lots of tests as she used to live in cyprus she has to have a test done for a disease they have over there that is not in UK, biopsie and ct scan and bloods and its gonna cost me a whooping £1500, so glad she is insured!!! Got to pick her up in couple of hours hope she is ok poor girl! I was expecting to be paying consultation fee of £135 not 10X that ammount. Shocking vet fee's!!!!

Good luck Mocha! There won't be a penis on your little girl, don't worry!

There won't be Mocha! I can't wait for you to be over the moon a second time.

Happylea, hope your dog gets better! You really have pet insurance? Wow, I don't know if that is even offered here.

So I am having a gout attack in my hand. I usually get it in my toe. I do not fit the profile of a gout sufferer. Usually it is men in their 40's+, drinkers who eat a ton of meat. I don't drink (even when not pregnant), I am not quite 40, I am not a man... anyway, it hurts so bad!! Crappy. I can hardly use my hand at all (typing this with one hand is hard!)

Pinkin - Very happy that you are not going to take the pills. I suffer from depression as well since I was a very young child. I stopped all meds by mistake before getting prego with DS1 and haven't used them since. I do a lot of meditation now and it helps a lot. I joined a group for the first 3mths so I did it right but now I can just do it on my own at home. I also get up beofre the kids and go to bed after them so I can make sure to fit in 2 a day. On really bad days I will sometimes meditate 1-2x's with the kids copying me or while they are watching a movie.
