I go through waves of panic. Some days I'm totally fine not knowing what gender this baby is, then some days I feel like I NEED to know either way. I'm just a bit over 4 weeks now, so I still have a looooooong way to go. I'm just nervous in general though. I so desperately want this baby to be a boy, and now that I'm pregnant I feel like my "chance" is gone, if that makes any sense? It's either one way or the other now.

At least DH is excited either way. He's been my little cheerleader when I'm feeling down. He knows I want a boy, took his supps and watched me take mine every morning, but I don't think he knows the depth of my want. If we hear girl with this one, I just don't want him to know my disappointment. I'm going to do some real soul-searching in the next few weeks to try to come to peace with all of this either way. I do NOT want to have GD with this baby. At DD 2's ultrasound I cried when they said girl, then was so overwhelmed with guilt for crying...ugh. I don't want to go through that again. I'm sure some of you can relate.

Anyway, sorry for the novel! I've just been on overdrive lately in my head

I can relate completely. What you have said resonates with me so well. It's exactly how I've been feeling and I'm afraid that imight cry or get GD this time if I hear boy again. I haven't had that happen yet and I'm scared

Oh and in the photos the baby isn't turned away, it is just blurred from movement. if I posted the video of those shots, you would see it is profile. The baby has a VERY small nose. So small in fact they want me to get Maternity 21 tests done, so it doesn't look like the profile, but it is.

Hi Ladies,

I have been off of these boards for a couple months now, trying not to obsess or worry. When I was on here, I tended to just get too consumed with my what-if thoughts. I lost one baby to Down's syndrome at 14 weeks three years ago, so I'm considered high risk, plus I'm in my mid 30s. Also, after three boys(and the Angel was also a boy), I have been very anxious about the gender this time. I would love a girl, as this will probably be our last child. Anyway, I decided to sign on here tonight because my Progenity results should be in as soon as tomorrow or by the end of this week. I may need some gender disappointment support this time if I hear boy. It's strange how it dos not really bother me much in my previous 4, but maybe with this being our possibly last baby, I'm trying not to get my hopes up and being prepared mentally. I did get 11 week ultrasound. The nub is pretty blurry but the chin is pointy from the front (skull theory would say girl for that, but it's not reliable) and the side view is blurred at the forehead no because I think baby was moving, so that wouldn't really be worth guessing on, either. Plus, like I said, the results will be in this week. I'll be 12 weeks on Wednesday.
Sorry I went missing in action for so long. I hope you all understand and I know that I can feel supported, whatever the outcome of my tests show. Unlike in the real world. People will judge us all based on what gender our children are and more and yet we cannot be open about how we feel about it so, thanks in advance for having me back in the mix.

Best wishes for all and feel free to send me some positive thoughts and prayers for healthy and pink this time. Thank you all and congrats on all of the good news I've been trying to catch up to on here! Two sets of twins, I see also! How wonderful and I'll catch up on the rest as well! Thank you all or being here. I'm so glad to have found this site.

Lots of pink dust for you! Hope you hear pink!

Wow! Two sets of twins! Big congrats and I wish you both a healthy pregnancy and wish you all the luck (and help) in the world at managing 3 under 3... Omg!

Kasey, I'm a terrible guesser, but hope that you get your desired gender! Gender disappointment sucks!

3boys, fingers crossed for you. I just heard we are having another boy and this is our last, so I can completely understand the gender disappointment thing as I'm going through it right now. I hope you get your little girl!

Just got back from my ultrasound. And while I am staying team green (they told me they could tell me by the nub) I am a little confused by what I saw. I will post here. The still images are classic girl nubs, as is one of the videos, the second video I am not so sure.

Hi ladies - I had my first OB appointment today (at 10 weeks) and I'm having twins also. OMG. I can't stop crying. I'm pretty nervous and upset! Trying to come to grips with it! I have a feeling it's 2 boys, but at this point I'm freaked out about the high risk pregnancy and the thought of raising twins and a 2 year old. This is a silly thing, but I'm also sad I won't be getting true gender results from my Maternit21 blood draw. They will only be able to tell if it's b/b or b/g and I'll have to wait until 20 weeks to confirm. It's going to drive me nuts! Congrats to you missxo - it will be fun to have another twin pregnancy friend to share the journey with!

kasey - such a girly nub, congrats!

Oh gosh. I have to admit twins is one of my worst fears so I can completely understand where you are coming from! I think in the end you will find them to be a real blessing Focus on the things you can control and don't worry about the things you can't. I hope you have at least one little princess in there
