I don't know that I want to know whether baby is for sure the boy I am sure I am getting. I was sure I wanted to know...the not knowing is driving me a little nuts...but now as the time gets closer for my 20week scan, I don't know I want to hear "it's a boy". I mean...I want to hear "it's a girl" for once but I am sure this is another boy. And I'm not sure I'm prepared to be a mom to 5 boys. I don't know I'm the best candidate for 5 kids, lol.
I only found out with ds3 and I was so sure he was a girl that when I found out otherwise I was so upset and didn't enjoy any of the rest of my pregnancy with him. And that scares me for finding out...I definitely had the worst gender disappointment with him. I was disappointed for half a second that ds4 was a boy...partly because the boys all wanted another brother, partly because even though I was sure he was a girl...thought I had seen three little white lines during my anatomy scan...I was resigned to being the mom of boys.
I'm rambling. My mother in law killed what joy and excitement I had for this pregnancy last month when she told dh he should have gone behind my back and gotten a vasectomy since he was fine with having just 4 kids but I wanted one more. I keep thinking how fun and exciting it is shopping for baby stuff...receiving blankets...sleepers...cute clothes. After so many boys, I'm not liking the idea of gender neutral stuff...and think how amazing would it be to go browsing through the pink clothes. Ds3 likes pink but he's moving on from wanting to wear it anymore (was so cute, my mom made him pink cords and they were his favourite pants) and he didn't want the frilly, girly clothes...just simple stuff we could find in pink.
So then I don't know. Do I find out or wait it out. My midwife will know. It will be written on the ultrasound report she gets and I tell her if I want to know. Part of me worries she'll let something slip, if I say no, I don't want to know. And I do want to know...just not sure I want to know either. Sort of liking that right now...baby is Schrödinger's cat...both a boy and a girl because either possibility exists, even though I am sure it's a boy. And that was a cool moment with ds4...and partly what has me leaning towards not knowing...because I delivered him onto my own chest, nobody saw parts until I looked. And I got to hold him for a minute and just revel in his existence before seeing what he was. And I wonder if having that moment with him...to soak in his babyness...without any boy/girl thoughts...helped with the minimal gender disappointment.
Anyways...thought maybe writing out all my thoughts would help me figure it out...to find out or leave the knowledge with my midwife. I am really feeling torn. But also feel like I haven't been enjoying being pregnant since my mother in law found out and maybe knowing boy/girl would help me out there.
Feeling baby kicking would likely also help!! Can't believe I'm 18weeks pregnant with #5 and haven't felt a thing! (Had a midwife check Tuesday and heard heartbeat and midwife said baby was moving around...so know all is well...just can't feel anything.)

BR- your baby girl looks so cute in those US pics!

Raezodal- I will be finding out the gender soon, and I'm not sure I'm ready to hear boy #4 if it's a boy either. It makes the rest of the pregnancy so much harder....but I do feel like not knowing can really drive you crazy too! It's hard.....I'm trying to brace myself to hear a boy again....

Raezodal. With my 3rd boy i experianced gender disappointment. I never knew what it was until I heard the words it's a boy and my heart sank. I was still glad that I found out because then I was able to prepare myself and be ready for when my boy was born.
Before I found out I had this sinking feeling it was ging to be a boy all along.
I felt like I was preparing myself to hear boy this time so much that I didn't allow myself to think actually it did be a girl. I broken down in tears.
I still this ripping off the bandaid and finding out if it has been a boy was the best option. I think I did have completely gone nuts if I waited until the end to find out.

Hi all, how is everyone doing?
I've been so sick just like my other pregnancies but it started a bit late around week 7 and it's still going but getting better. Just the vomiting has stopped but no appetite yet, I'll be 13 weeks on Tuesday. I have been on (Cariban, 10mg) which helps sometimes. I'm not a medicine person, but anything that helps! I have lost over a stone in weight and had one round of iv fluids.
I have had so much help from my in laws, I don't know what I would have done without them, and they seem to be happy to help especially Mil.
I would have hired help if we didn't get along or something.
I'm actually debating whether to go for #5 or not. Just feeling down, I wish I never got this sick and ate whatever and not feel helpless, so I can be the mother my kids deserve! I know it's for a couple of weeks but I just can't keep relying on other people every time and they also know we're planning on having 5 kids! I had so much fun stuff planned for the kids this summer since the schools are closed, but we only managed to do some of them. Maybe I'm just rambling or just hormones talking here, but I kept thinking every time I would get better.

Anyways, I had my dating scan last Wednesday at 12 weeks 1 day, and I'm due on the 14th of February.
I didn't even ask the tech if she could see what baby was. The baby was facing towards us which made it too difficult to take measurements, so she had to do a lot of poking so the baby could turn, which was a bit uncomfortable. I have a feeling that this is boy #4.

I have some pics, I'll try to upload them
