UPDATE GIRLS! Just came back from gynae....it's a BOY! Was not easy to see and gynae said he is 90% convinced it's a boy. Little one kept on moving all the time, I think he's gonna be a naughty one! There were either his legs or the cord in the middle so he couldn't see well. He tried with a potty shot and I thought I saw his penis but gynae said that that was the cord. Then tried with a 4D and we think we saw his eggies down there, so probably boy. Gynae said don't go buy blue yet, but i'm sure it's a boy. He seems healthy and is measuring 16weeks 3days, almost a week ahead. I think I need to eat less chocolate and cakes! Don't want him to be too big for delivery

I already had my cry in the car, but after reading this thread, I'm trying to be positive and think how lucky I am that the baby is healthy, but it is not easy to admit that I'lll never gonna have my lovely girl. This is the last one for us, so bye bye girlie My son is going to be very happy though, he really wanted a boy, so at least that's a plus! I'm waiting for him to come from school and he finished early today cause they had the Christmas party.

Please say a little prayer for me so that I learn to accept this little one soon, I feel so guilty for wanting him to be a girl

Dreaming I am so glad to hear all went well and baby was healthy. Congrats to you! What did your son say when you told him??

Aww Dreaming, 2 boys are so special together. The relationship that my boys have with eachother is really beautiful, I'm not entirely sure my eldest could've had this bond with anyone else but DS2. Congrats and enjoy your boys!

Dreaming congratulations on your healthy blue bean. If I was only having 2 then I think I would prefer the same gender for the bond between the two brothers or sisters.

So we went for a visit yesterday and the Dr. performed an inpromptu scan. Baby is well, we were able to see everything BUT the sex because his/her legs were clamped shut. We are going to try again January 22nd. I so wanted to be able to tell everyone the sex for Christmas...

Oh dear - at least you have the pregnancy card to play - that usually lets you get away with most things.

My hubby even told me i could have a new pram (which i needed anyway) - he seems so pleased to be getting a daughter and he wants to spoil her already - really sweet although i am a little shocked

Haha yes by the time he came home from work he was over it, thank goodness! Aw that's so sweet! I'm sure she is definitely going to get spoiled

Dreaming - sorry that you didn't hear pink but at least he is healthy.

Kels - sorry you didn't get to see a potty shot.

Sorry you didn't hear pink Dreaming but I am so very pleased that your little one is healthy. Give yourself some time and don't be too hard on yourself if you have a little cry. A loss of a dream is tough no matter what. Sending my love x

I'm not sure we can afford the $170 for a 12-13 week ultrasound. Although if I could afford it I would have it. My doctor and midwife both want me to have a dating scan as I'm pretty unsure of when I did actually ovulate. But I just don't feel comfortable before second trimester or thereabouts to have an ultrasound. Apparently the dating scan would only be accurate if it was done soon as the earlier in pregnancy it is done the more accurate. So don't think I will still be able to get a free scan if I wait until I'm comfortable to at 12-13 weeks. So unfortunately might not be until 19 weeks. Unless I go to the doctor, and ask if it appears that my uterus if higher then usual or some other reason that points to possible multiples and perhaps he will send me for an ultrasound sooner. I'm just going to play it by ear. I will have at least one ultrasound though. Really uncertain about finding out gender. As much as I know I will love another boy, I can't help but hope for a girl and think I may cry again if told boy and I don't want to cry. I think I need the hope of a girl all the way to the end. Even if it's not a big chance of a girl. I don't want to go through the last half of this pregnancy upset and hurting. I believe this pregnancy is my last chance at a daughter. 4 kids is a lot and DH wants to stop. I also can't keep putting my children through a year off being able to do anything with them while I almost die for a year. My boys want me to do active things with them and all I can do is lie or sit down and whenever I move I vomit or gag. Plus I don't think we can afford more kids and it's not fair to keep bringing children into the world that you can't afford to look after properly. So this is it for us. But that will mean that I want it to be a girl even more. Ahh, to not have a gender preference would be so nice.

I could have written this myself - we will not be finding out the sex either as i want thta little bit of hope right until the end plus a friend had a baby last week and was told at 16 weeks and 20 weeks it was a girl and she called me from hospital to say there was a mix up and she is coming home with a boy can i try and change some of her stuff for her before they get back !! Made me realise even more that it can still be wrong !!
