SEPT/OCT/NOV 2014 Roll Call!

[Tomgirl]

Sorry Ghoulina, sounds like you baby is stubborn!

It's funny this is my first pregnancy that I actually feel proud regardless of it being the 4th as it is the only pregnancy I actually PLANNED! Ha go figure. I am 1 of 4 girls so I'm used to the idea of a big family so it doesn't phase me at all.

I think I might cave and go to the maternity store today and at least get some comfy dresses as the whole restrictive stuff on my belly is driving me bonkers!

We go for our scan tomorrow at 3:15!!
My stomach does a flip when I think about the possibility of seeing something gender related! I really want a suprise birth but man it will be tempting to peek
I took another bump picture... I look so much smaller through my phone lol! I think I'll just look at myself through that for now on because I know I'm bigger than this in person lol!! I've gained about 20lbs!!!
I honestly don't know how, although it has always packed on quickly during pregnancy for meimage.jpg

Looking good coocoo! Lovely neat bump Exciting, love scans! Good luck staying team green. Xx

I had a 2nd gender rescan today. Because I didn't get a potty shot I emailed them, they don't do potty shots, but offered me a free rescan. Went with my sister, it was lovely seeing my daughter (eek!) again!! She showed me the girl bits, and I'm finally convinced after harmony, gender scan at 16+1 and 17+3 that I'm actually having a little girl. How we did it, I'll never know lol! Xx

It's very quiet on here where's everyone gone? Xx

I know! Where is everyone? I guess we are all back to regular life with no scans or that kinda thing going on?!
I had my first gender dream last night. I woke up sure it was true! I went to my u/s and I saw a penis and they said its a boy and I was like 'no, I was sure it was going to be a girl!!!' It was really upsetting lol! This reinforces that I need to stay team green although I fear I have my hopes up for something that may not happen!!
I think I had the dream because my mom is really pushing for me to stay team green as she said it will be wonderful! I remind her that that is indeed what I want but I don't want to worry about her being disappointed if I take a peek today if that's what I want (she's a bit passive aggressive and I end up basing my decisions off her feelings) which at 37 is really starting to bother me lol!
I tell her it is a lot different for me than her to wait. If I had a boy and girl like she did, that not finding out would be a lot easier seeing I could honestly go in excited about either gender! But I have 3 of 1 gender, of course I want it to be an opposite suprise but I go back and forth with what is better for me!
All I know is last time I was so sad and I now know I will feel that way again as I def have my hopes up a bit from my nub shot! I wish I didn't and I have really being trying hard to dash my hopes lol! But it's there
Anyway, I am rambling, holy over thinker lol!!!

Coocoo, I hoe you did what was best for you today at your scan, it's a shame your mum is putting more pressure on you to suit her wants. You need to do what you want as you will know what's best for you regardless of the gender outcome of your baby. Let us know how your scan went and if you saw anything!! Xx

[Peebell85]

I'm like you too Coocoo, I really take on my mums feelings on things, I think thats fairly natural... Do you think you'll really suffer with GD with another boy? I'd be inclined to find out earlier so you have time to adjust.... But thats just me... I know you want to stay team green.

I've been suffering terrible anxiety this pregnancy. I've had it for years and last pregnancy it went away but this pregnancy its returned, with a vengeance... It isnt an easy thing to battle thru especially with a toddler aswell.... Ahwell I'll keep soldering on.

So we don't get told what gender baby is here. I think I could have it in my file for dr to reveal but he didn't ask and I just went with that! I didn't see a penis though, so still hope
He couldn't get a profile shot so I may have to go
Back if dr wants to know about the nasal bone. I'm bummed though as we paid 10 bucks for pics and that are all pretty lame:/ the profile is the best and we didn't get one oh well he scanned for a good 1/2 hour at least and my hubby secretly filmed some of it (we aren't allowed to film either lol)
I was so nervous as he didn't show the heart right away and baby wasn't moving but turned out fine! Phew!!

Sorry to hear about your anxiety peebell, does walking or other exercise help at all?

[WantingPink]

Coocoo that is definitely a team green potty shot!! Can't really see anything one way or the other. I don't think it is right for your Mom to be putting any kind of pressure on you. She should be there to support whatever you feel is best for you. Do you think you still want to stay team green?

[coocoobananas]

I have to unless I pay for another scan to find out gender! It is driving me batty but I think I can hold strong... Although I love seeing the baby and a bit sad I don't get to see any more u/s of him/her

Hey girls! It is really quiet on here! I am going for my appointment with the specialist today. I have a lot of mixed feelings about trying for a vba2c but I hope that he can help answer some of my questions! I don't know how exactly he would determine whether I am a candidate or not....maybe an u/s and I will get another peek at our little guy!
So, completely unrelated but I still get a big smile thinking about it. I dropped my son off at daycare this morning (he will be 2 in July) and one of the other kids in his "class" was being dropped off at the same time - she got all excited when she saw him and vice versa - he is apparently quite the ladies' man lol! Anyway, she started to get upset when her mom was leaving and Evan gave her a hug and then grabbed her hand and took her into the play area! It was SOOOOOO adorable!! I just totally melted!!
