I was just thinking about your sway this am and was curious about one thing. You said that you thought about swaying blue but changed your mind due to the FIL's illness. My question is why were you going to sway blue? I'm guessing that you just thought it would be fun to have all brothers at this point? Curious though because I know that you had previously swayed pink and had pretty bad GD

Awww, huge congrats Atomic! I think I would be the same - wouldn't believe it until she was finally here!

I lost my Dad to MND which is a form of ALS 3 years ago when ds2 was just 6 weeks old, he was diagnosed the day my first son was born. Absolutely horrible disease, thankfully the form my Dad had wasn't genetic. I have read too that it is more prevalent in boys which is another reason why I hope my 3rd little one is a girl.

You're doing such a wonderful job helping everyone on here, I hope that with the happy news of your pending bundle of pink that lots of other things in your life have got better too. xx

Oh I'm sorry Steph, I only just now saw this. After having terrible GD with DS 3 and mild with DS 4, I sort of came to terms with the idea - there is a huge age gap between DS 2 and 3 so we kinda had to start all over again and I was hoping for a girl. But after DS 3 and 4, we were back in the mix with boy clothes, boy toys, and the whole boy lifestyle and in that scenario, a boy just fit in better. I still worry that a girl will get a little lost in the shuffle sometimes TBH but I was so scared about the ALS when I got pg that I was willing to do whatever it takes to prevent it.
