I am team green... but only until next Friday! I am getting super nervous for my scan. We haven't told anybody about the pregnancy yet, and I have to announce after the scan, so that just adds to my anxiety. I need to stop looking at little pink clothes.

Speaking of pink clothes... I would love to see some of your purchases KitKat!

Kitkat so pleased for u.x I am getting there.feeling a lot better physically. Just feel like it's messed everything up now as our Edd was may which would have been perfect for us.but at the moment I don't want to even think about trying again yet x

Hairbows I will post tonight! I am 100% sure its a little lady for you too but you know how nub sessed and freaked out I was!! In the last few days before the scan I just started picturing myself with another boy etc just in case and kept repeating to myself that I would love this baby no matter what! I probably sound crazy but we all know how horrid GD is!!
Deep breaths helped on the day too. Good luck I just know you will be buying pink Xx
Eleena honey my heart breaks for you, take your time you will know when you are ready to try again! Make sure those boys give you big squishy hugs!!!

Congrats kitkat! No big surprise though!

I started bleeding Wednesday day. I actually felt somewhat relieved I knew my dates weren't off. Measuring 4 weeks behind just isn't right. I had another ultrasound today which showed an empty sack again. I should be 12 weeks pregnant I am hoping that since the sack was only measuring 6 weeks and a fetal pole wasn't showing up that this miscarriage will go more like a 6 week one than 12 week. But still awfully frustrating that my body would hold on for that long!!!!!
If my bleeding doesn't pick up over the weekend then I will go in Monday for the cytotec.

Good luck to everyone who has a scan soon. Wishing happy healthy pregnancies to all

QueenB thank you for giving us an update. I hope things are as quick & straightforward as they possibly can be.

I'm am regretting having the scan enormously. It has turned my relaxed pregnancy into a horrible obsessive stress-fest. I still have plenty of people guessing blue based on the part of the baby that looks similar to a boy nub but the sonographer said is leg. Which just puts so much doubt in my mind. Even the girl guesses start woth "IF the sonographer is right" or "I would have guesses boy if you hadn't explained..." which makes me less certain of their guesses. 100% of the guesses on babynub.com have been boy. I don't know what to think & I don't know why I care so much given I am truly fine with having a boy. And of course I feel like a cow when I know people are having miscarriages & my sister-in-law can't get pregnant.

Kitkat I totally know why you had to keep saying mantra-type statements to yourself. I am a nervous wreck & can't work out how to calm down.

I'm actually considering getting offline completely & deleting all my US pics from my phone/computer so I am forced to stop looking at them.

Primalmamma please don't beat yourself up over there. I hoped not to see a nub at my scan and not to get a picture with any hint of a nub for the same reasons. I told myself from day one that baby would be a boy and was at peace with it until my 12 week scan. Suddenly I saw hope of having a girl and became nutty. For almost two straight weeks I did nothing but stare at nubs. Comparing mine to girl and boy nubs and trying to find a similarity or difference with all of them.
We are human. And we are on this site for a reason. Nobody will judge you for gender desire here so please don't feel like a "cow."
If you need to take a break from the Internet perhaps you should give it a try for a couple of days to see if it helps, but we will be here waiting to talk. We understand what you are feeling, and it is okay. I am sending big hugs your way. Know you are not alone. I am right there with you. I'm even paying for a private scan because of it. Xoxo

[kitkat18]

Could not agree more with you hairbows!! I am so sorry if I made it worse sending you over to baby nub.com honey. Its a horrible feeling the not knowing when you had a glimmer of hope!! Taking a break is a good idea I had to do that many a time when ttc girl cause I was finding myself obsessing too much and it did me so much good.

If you do want more of an indication I personally would ask for the DVD from the scan or look into an early gender scan it would be worth every penny just to stop worrying!! You might be able to shop around and find a better price?
BIG HUGS!! Xx

Hi Girls, I've decided that getting off the forums is best for me for a while. I'm not really sure in what capacity I will do this - I might check back in once a week, or I might just stay off completely until I've had my scan. I have an apt with my GP this week to get the referral for my morph scan which I'm hopeful can be done in the week before Xmas. My midwife said they like it to be done at 19 weeks now & I got DS2's done at 18 weeks because I had a small bleed so while I was in the ED they sent me down for the scan at that point. I'll be totally devo if I have to wait until later. I'm not really worried about the result as such, I'm more hating the obsessing I'm doing. I actually now have a strong feeling that this baby might be pink... and having that hope terrifies me because up until now I had expected to have minimal gender disappointment if the baby does end up being a boy. However now I feel like I will be crushed. So I really feel like it's best for me to just focus on having a BABY - not a boy, or a girl, just a child. Once I have the results I will definitely be back on here as I love being part of this community & feel like I've actually made friends here! So as I said - I may check back in briefly here & there but I won't be around anywhere near as much until I know the gender for sure. Then I'll be back to celebrate, whether the result is pink or blue. :-)

Best of luck to everyone, see you round... xx

[kitkat18]

Totally understand primal mama! I will look forward to your update of a much wanted and cherished boy or girl!! Xxx
