Kitkat. Such a perfect state to be in...I feel like I made a huge mistake by anoouncing not only pregnancy but the gender as well

Everyone that finds out tells me..'oh u must be relieved' or 'now ur family us complete' or thank god its not another boy and it's pissing me off to no end

I ended up fibbing on a couple of occasions saying I kinda wish this was another boy coz now I'll never see that'bonding' that 2 brothers or 2/sisters share

Hi everyone!
Oh how exciting scan are! So hard to wait in between! I have an elective gender scan this Thursday. It was bumped up... I am super excited but so very nervous. Like you hopingforhairbows I got 100% girl guesses and my husband is convinced it's a girl. My hopes are up but until I see it confirmed I go through waves of doubt. I have three little boys too!

[Mommy3b]

Odd I understand what you mean...many people make comments to me about how they "hope I get my girl." I know they don't mean any harm but I get offended. I went though this with my third son and I wouldn't have it any other way. I didn't tell anyone except my closest friend we are having an elective. I am thinking that whatever the sex I am going to keep it private for now.

Odd people are so darn thoughtless!! The boy mumma in me would be so mad by those comments as we are all so proud of our boys!!
Mommy 3b wow I am jealous you get to find out Thursday I still have 2 long weeks to wait! I am so sure you will hear girl honey but good luck I have already started stressing! I too have told everyone we are team green so there is no pressure afterwards I think its a good move, update us asap!!

Thanks for your replies. I'm not too concerned as is prob just the pressure of the baby on my bits in certain position... Will mention it to my midwife next appointment.

GD is on my mind too. Keeps creeping up and I have days where I'm at peace and others where I feel sad, numb and some good days where I feel very hopeful still too...I had 50/50 boy/girl guesses for my 12 week scan, thought I saw boys bits at my 20week u/s but really just don't know... I'm sure I will be in love with who ever pops out in march ...
Good luck everyone with your u/s xx

Kitkat I will update for sure. I need to get this scan because I am totally obsessing! Good call telling everyone your team green... Less pressure

[Mommy3b]

Good luck to you too... Yes I am sure your little one will steal your heart no matter the gender.

This is actually one of the things that has put me at peace (for the moment) with having another boy. My husband is one of 4 brothers and they have such a strong bond. I am one of a pigeon pair with no other siblings and my brother & I rarely speak & when we do it's incredibly awkward. There are no bad feelings we just have nothing in common & have nothing to say to one another. It's very lonely and I wish I had a sister.

So another boy wouldn't be a bad thing in my mind.

Went for my first midwife appointment today.quickly got booked in for my scan tomorrow morning woo hoo! Anyway I don't know if it was just because it was the first appointment but I felt badly informed about quite a lot of things. Like I wasnt sure whether i want anothet home birth and I expected her to give me some advice but she didn't.also regarding the downs syndrome test.I wasn't sure about having it and I said to her I am quite a low risk anyway aren't I? And she said well it could happen to anyone.although I read on the internet its something like 1 in 900 chance for my age,so I'm pretty sure she should have told me that. And one other thing because i absolutely hate blood tests I told her I didn't want them all doing ,just the ones that mattered like blood type e.t.c. and she basically said I HAD to have them all. Am I right in thinking u can refuse certain ones? I certainly didn't feel like that was an option for me.

[kitkat18]

Eleena when I had my boys they didn't offer the blood tests and nt combined result, just nt and that was perfectly fine. For me taking the blood tests was no biggie and easier for peace of mind to have the 1 in 10,000 result, but everyone is different and if you hate blood tests don't do it, you will still get quite an accurate result from the nt measurements combined with your age.
Good luck! And exciting to see baby tomorrow X
