I'm having a tough time in the afternoon and evening. I'm out of it. My dh turned 39 on Wed and I forgot to say Happy Birthday to him. I felt terrible. And he had to remind me. I really hope it gets better soon. If history repeats itself I'm screwed.

Tiffani, your baby is gorgeous!

[homebirthing princess]

Gorgeous baby tiff and I agree with the others I don't see anything boyish at all! Keep positive hun xx

[Tiffani3]

Thank you girls
Was so pleased first of all that bub was there! Plus heart beating etc...
Then started looking for the nub on the scanner first of all it looked girly then very boyish arrrrgh gd I hate you. Dh is REALLY cross with me because he says it doesn't matter what it is and being upset doesn't help or change anything! he doesn't understand

[ThreeMenAndALAdy]

They don't. I wish we didn't understand either. Times like this I certainly wouldn't mind a mans brain...

Threemen, I've been the same I could quite happily go to bed at the same time as the boys! It has started getting better but I find if I'm in bed later than 10pm I feel awful the next day.

After worrying earlier about my symptoms disappearing my boobs are sore again and I've been feeling nauseous again - phew! It's my third pregnancy you'd think I'd have learnt to relax by now!!!

Sorry your dh doesn't understand Tiffani, mine is the same. I think he thinks I am insane for being so bothered and I was so happy to fall pregnant when I did as he was saying it was the last month of swaying he just wanted us to get pregnant. I wish I didn't care too, I think I always assumed as we planned to have 3 children that we would of course have one of each gender. I mean if you flip a coin the chance of you getting heads three times in a row can't be high?!

For me I'm kind of enjoying the not knowing as I can daydream about having a little girl, but at the same time I'm driving myself insane not wanting to get too excited at the prospect and worrying about how I will feel if it is a boy. I was really surprised with ds2 because the pregnancy was so different I convinced myself it was a girl, I don't think I realised how convinced I was until we were told it was another boy at the u/s and I was totally shocked. I didn't let on to dh, but secretly I felt sad. I knew the ideal situation would be to have another boy and then a girl as we had our first two close together so it would be nice for them to be playmates. However at the same time I knew if our second baby was a girl then the pressure was off for baby 3, I could relax and enjoy the pregnancy and even have a surprise at the birth because it really wouldn't matter which it was.
I know in my heart of hearts that however upset I may feel if we are having another boy that once he is here and I am getting all those precious newborn cuddles I honestly won't care. Of course I will always miss the fact that I never had a daughter and wonder about what she would have looked like etc.
I think at this stage the mental battle is the hardest, once we know the genders of our babies (for those finding out at the scans) we can get our heads around it hopefully enjoy the rest of our pregnancies. xx

I cannot stop thinking about miscarraige today! Grrrrr. And I have gained weight + hugely bloated... I cannot properly suck my tummy in while at work.

Is it weird and wrong that I am desperately waiting for morning sickness so I know things are being as they should be? My first two pregnancies that turned to miscarriages I had no ms with but with my son, I did. Really, it could be another two weeks still before it could potentially kick in, but I'm counting on it for reassurance.

Ok after my major sulk and a couple of tears lol I've booked my self a gender scan on the 17th October. I feel like I need to get the gender out the way and stop wondering and worrying, also so I can really start to enjoy and be greatful about this pregnancy as it will be my last. xx

[ThreeMenAndALAdy]

I have my nt scan the 17th. I hope it's going to be our lucky day Tiffani!!!

[Tiffani3]

Yeah defiantly! Pink wishes for the 17th!!
