Hey Grace, I was hoping you would start a change but this is the month of boy reveals ( since I'm not really in this due date group... I just like it here
You sound like I imagined myself being and I'll keep reading over these posts to remind myself that this isn't a bad thing, many would kill to be in my shoes! Congratulations, I do believe these babies are
meant to be
I am really wishing I staed with my team green, I went against my instincts and caved and now I am sad. I feel bad all over again that I have these feelings that I was sure I could avoid if I just saw this sweet guy at birth! At least I have a couple 3d pics to look at to remind me of the big picture! Although I keEp thinking 'why couldn't you just have a vagina' and then that seems to snap me into reality, like wtf? WhO cares if he doesn't? What difference does it make... That is something I need to figure out because I don't even know!
I won't ever have a girl of my own, but sometimes thinking of adoption ( which I don't think is financially possible sadly) eases my mind a little, even if it's just to trick my mind to get over this!
Agggh! I hate being this way, I feel like I need to be shaked into reality!! In 3 months I will, I just have to get there!!

If anyone has half a sec, can you shoot me a PM and update me on who is having opposites so I can add them to the sway stats? It's tough for me to keep up with and I want the stats to be as accurate as I can have them.

Coocoo I know what you mean about feeling sad. I just took the boys to the playground, a lot of moms I know we're also there with their kids. I couldn't bring myself to tell them we found out it's a boy, felt like I'd choke with tears if I try to talking about it. I guess it's sinking in... I love my boys dearly and of course I would never trade them for anything in the world, but it's those little things about having a girl that I miss- ballet class, pony tails, pretty dresses and just wondering what my little girl might have looked like. Just thinking about it is bringing tears to my eyes, so I'll stop now

Sorry Grace :-( I was really thinking you would break the streak. Congrats on the boy though! I know what you mean about getti g sad thinking about the things we don't get to experience like pigtails and ballet. It's not a huge help but dh always tells me just because you have a girl doesn't mean she will like all that stuff. She could be the biggest tomboy ever. We crave an idea, what is our ideal girl and it makes it hurt more if that makes sense. Hugs to you, I am sure your baby will be gorgeous and sweet like your other two!

Ladies this boy streak is getting long. I hope I can break it this Saturday. Not getting hopes up though. I am already losing sleep constantly thinking about the gender. Can't wait til I know and I can move on either way.

You can pm me if you want Grace, I've already pm'd Tiff3 as I just needed to talk to someone who 'gets it'!
I'm hoping talking about it is better than holding it all in. I've only told my mom, sister and Sil ( basically cause they made me!) and 2 of my friends one who has 2 girls and gets it and the other who could tell something was up!But I didn't talk to Amy of them long as I was a big ball of tears so I just changed the subject!!
3 girls I know had 2 Boys and then a girl... Which is what inspired me to go for it, but of course 1 of us couldn't be so lucky! Of course it had to be the one who openly admitted she wanted it so bad and tried the hardest to make it happen! They all said they were totally fine with a boy and the girl was a big suprise!!!... I call bullshit though
I mean I pulled the wool over my own eyes to get me here! I didn't want 3, I wanted a girl! Too bad I couldn't really know that til it was too late! Poor baby

My eyes watered while reading this...I'm sorry it hurts so much. I really hope if goes away soon.

I think most people care more than they will admit. I am glad we all have a place to come and talk, share our true feelings. Dh already has said he doesn't get it as most of yours have too. So I am happy to know I have somewhere to turn this Saturday if I am told boy.

My friend just told me about The Australian Institute of Ultrasound, its a training facility 15mins from where i live on the Gold Coast. They constantly ask for volenteers via their facebook page to come and have free scans. They do sex determination at 16weeks, and you get a dvd copy of the whole thing for free, it takes about 1hour and about 3 trainees have a go on you. I think i will try to get in for sure at 16 weeks, and i have not decided to tell DP yet.

I had something like this during my last pregnancy. They needed people to train on, so I got to go in once a month to see him for over an hour each time. It was really great! I hope you can get in for it

Grace, I'm so sorry you didn't hear girl... We are all here for you!

Welcome 3girls!
