so here i am rounding off the blue streak this week with boy number 3 for me. despite a completely different pregnancy in every way possible i still had the feeling this was another boy. the tears don't seem to stop falling but hopefully in a while i will come to terms with it and just try and start the rest of my life knowing i will never have a little girl. i always had a feeling i wouldn't be lucky enough to have one. best of luck to the rest of you with your upcoming scans. i really hope you all get your desired little girls or boys.

So sorry you didn't hear pink Heidih. After my ultrasound I had a good cry too it's very hard. Do something nice for yourself. Glad baby is healthy. xo.

I'm sorry, Heidi. I know someone here (Jadis?) said that the contents our own particular uterus have nothing to do with the contents of anyone else's uterus, but what the heck is up here? First this long run of girls, and now nothing but boys for the past week or so. It does seem odd to me.

And I have to admit I am not doing as well as I was at first. It's sunk in more, and I have had quite a few tears. The night after my scan, I woke up with ds3 at 3 am and then couldn't fall back asleep - ended up sobbing in bed and dh and I stayed up 'til 5:30 talking. I am just feeling like why is it never me? Four kids, and not one girl. The one thing that I have wanted so badly for 10 years since I was pregnant with my first child, and I just can't seem to get it. I do feel incredibly fortunate to have had 4 healthy pregnancies and children thus far, but c'mon. Really? The universe can't just work with me a little here? And now I'm starting to think about trying again. But it would probably just be another boy. And what the heck would I do with 5 kids! I wish we would have just bitten the bullet after ds2 and done MS/IUI or IVF w/ PGD. We talked about it, but then got pregnant with ds3 by accident, and that all went out the window. And then this time, I thought I had a fairly good sway and a decent chance at a girl, but no. I know I'll love this new baby boy, but I just can't shake the desire for a girl. I wish I could. I don't think I ever will.

Aw Jennaesue. I'm so sorry you're feeling like this - it's so hard, I know how you feel. It sounds like you have a super supportive DH which is fabulous. Is he on board to go HT? Maybe you could do that in a little bit if you decide you do want to try again. I know I'll always wish I had a baby girl as well - you're never alone! I hope it eases up for you soon, you seem like a very strong woman. Hugs.

Thanks, CVD. No, this is supposed to be our last baby. So even having a fifth baby is a just a dream. I really do not think we would be able to justify the cost of going high tech. We live in a 1000 square foot, 3 bedroom home right now, and we are hoping to buy or build a larger home soon. We really need to put our money towards that, not a baby. Maybe two babies ago we could have done it, but I think the shipped has sailed on that possibility.

Aww Jennaesue, I'm so sorry that you've had a few rubbish days. Sending big hugs. Thinking of you lots.

Heidih - congrats on your healthy bundle of blue. Sorry you didn't hear pink, I really know how hard it is to hear boy for a third time. Sending big hugs.

I know EXACTLY how you feel. I am still struggling to just get through the day, and it kills me to see people who don't even treat their kids very well and they get girls and I can't even have one.

This is exactly how I feel too I have been a complete mess. I have been avoiding people and really feeling like this whole thing was a bad idea. I'm sure I will feel better later but right now I am just devastated. I did talk to DH about it and he said that if I really wanted to we could do IVF with PGD in a couple of years. That makes me feel a little better but I still can't imagine having 5 kids but I like knowing that I have the options so for now I am going to focus on finishing school and saving every penny that I can so that if I want to later we can afford it.
