    My DS2 (almost 12) and I are very close. 💛
    I'm probably too open and honest with him sometimes, but I think it's why he is also very open and honest with me (maybe sometimes too much when he tells me all the goss at school. Lol)

    He is am amazing young man and pays close attention to me and seems to know when I need some help with dinner, or housework and just offers, and gives me a hug when he just knows I need one and he is so good with his brothers and I am so truly blessed to have him. ❤️❤️

    That is what I dream of with my kids. <3

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    I always hear about the closeness one has with her daughters but I can honestly say my boys are very open with me, specially DS2, he actually called me once for support because there was a girl throwing herself at him (he was 17!) and he was trying really hard not to cheat on his girlfriend of 3 years and needed someone to talk to to put the brakes on and the fact that he chose me shows he sees me as a big friend, not only his mum, and that is beyond special. DS1 also came to me to ask about drugs once, and I know how lucky I am to have them trust me that much. I heard that mothers and daughters tend to have a very close relationship but I can't complain that I don't already have that from my boys. DS3 is too young (only 3) but I do hope we will have that same relationship, even though I'm older now and might not be the 'cool' mum I used to be when DS1 and DS2 were younger (had them at 16 and 19 years of age, I was like a big sister I guess). I am 40 now, hopefully DS3 will still get the 'chilled' side of me

    I myself made the mistake of calling a set of twin girls.. boys ... On the other side of the fence you feel absolutely terrible.. It isn't meant to be an insult at all... don't take it the wrong way seriously..these two little girls were accompanied by there big brothers and I assumed and visually was convinced they were in fact boys! They looked like little boys and near identical to there older brothers. I am not sorry at all, not long ago we used to dress the little ones up in dresses and curl their hair no matter gender!! Put any kid in a yellow suit with the same shoulder length hair as every other child honestly really who is to know if they have a hot dog or a hamburger and what's more what does it matter!
    Hoping for a pink rainbow!

    I don't get upset when DS6 is mistaken for a girl, he is gorgeous with long blonde curls, it's the comments about the six boys when I correct them that drive me crazy! Or if I don't correct them the comments about how we can stop now we 'got our girl' and buy a TV. 😠😜

    this is my experience as well where I am very close with my 22 and 18 year oldl and I am honestly a bit befuddled when people go on and on about how they will never have a close relationship with their sons.

    I too feel like I am going to have close relationships with my boys. We are very open and honest about everything with them and think communication is super important. You can never start too early! I love how independent boys can be but I also love how my boys need their mommy. I honestly haven't gotten many comments on having all boys. I also don't get out much though either! haha
