[Brandles]

Hi Brandles, thanks for caring. My son was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome which is affecting his kidney function. We started steroid treatment yesterday and he seems to be doing better already. Hopefully he will get over it in a few weeks without permanent damage to his health.Oh and we have to keep him on a low sodium diet, which my crazy MIL doesn't seem to understand - she promised to buy him pizza tomorrow, after I specifically explained to her that store bought pizza is loaded with sodium. Aargghhh MIL!! Need I say more?

Oh no Lots of prayers coming your way! Totally agree on the MIL comment!!

Oh no, Grace! Poor baby! Y'all are in my prayers.

I have so many boxes of clothes it isn't funny! I've got everything from both the boys, one was a summer baby and one was a winter baby. Plus a friend gives me things from her boys so I have clothes up to age about 7 at the moment! It is great but a nightmare when it comes to storing them. I was looking forward to having a major clear out if this was a girl but at least I can start getting rid of stuff once this one has grown out of stuff now.
We do need some new things for him too as some of the clothes are past it now. I've been feeling ok today, been super busy with the boys doing some Christmas shopping which helped a lot. Had a few moments of envy seeing mums with a girl and a boy. I seem to have seen loads with two boys and then a little girl. Seems so unfair. DS2 said to me at lunchtime 'mummy where is the baby girl?' so I said 'what baby girl?' and he said 'the one in your tummy!' so I had to explain again that even though he had thought it was a girl the scan had shown it was a boy.
Then we went into a clothes shop and I let them pick something each for the baby - so he has a white fluffy bear thin snowsuit type thing and a little teddy bear plus some dinosaur booties lol!!

Had some lovely reactions from people when we've said we're having another boy which has also made me feel better, and had the expected 'you going to be trying for number 4 then', and a friend of mine who is due a little girl any day said 'isn't it lucky you're not a girly girl!'. I mean wtf?! I consider myself to be pretty girly, more so than her actually! I thought it was such a weird comment to make especially as I had confided in her that although I was super happy we were having a healthy baby boy I was a bit sad at the thought I'd never have a daughter.

Grace - hope your little man is lots better soon. xx

Suregena, did you get your lab values back from your appt yet? Sometimes your free hcg and PAPP-A levels can give you a clue to gender...check out this thread: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/preg...ys-gender.html. Interesting stuff!!

[jark22]

It's ok suregena- I don't think you need to chill out. It's hard not to get all caught up in the anticipation. Plus there are so many nubs that look one way but end up the other way. You're not alone- I'm freaking out too. 10 more days till I know. Ahhhh!

They won't give me the values, I don't think. I just got a letter today saying it was a 1 in 17,000 chance for Downs Syndrome but don't believe they will give me the actual figures. I was reading that thread earlier, though...

I'm starting to feel majorly annoying to everyone around here... think I need to back off and not say anything more until my gender scan.
