Lynn head over to the "TTC a girl" section and you'll find tons of helpful information!

I'm feeling some disappointment. We're finally telling extended family who immediately turn around and say "I hope it's a girl this time" before I can tell them that no, it's another little boy. I'm actually very excited to meet *this* little person, I'm just not sure I have another pregnancy in me and I'm sad about not having a girl. All my close friends have either just girls or a mix, and that's not helping either.

*big hugs* shann <3 I hope you are able to confirm it if it will help you in any way.

ahorn, looking forward to your reveal!

AFM, I managed to get some sort of injury on my ankle. I didn't fall or do anything crazy, but wearing my flats while pregnant caused it, it seems. So now, it isn't going away and I suppose its the relaxin not letting it heal.

Anyone have an increase in thirst? I can't seem to get enough to drink these days, especially after a meal. It was the same with DD during the 3rd trimester.

I hope your ankle gets better!!! I too have been very thirsty lately. I can't get enough ice water. I'll call DH on my way home and ask him to have glass waiting on me when I get home

I'm sorry you are feeling a little down about boy #3 but I'm sure this baby was meant to be a part of your family. ((HUGE HUGS)). I really do think there is something special about 3 boys. If this one is boy #3 for me I'm getting a tshirt made that says "Boy Mom and proud of it" or something along those lines.

Fox- My heart goes out to you [emoji20]. Those comments are the hardest. It caused me to become overly protective of them. Even now when people say, "Oh you must have your hands full", I say, "No I don't actually. My boys are incredibly easy- we are fortunate". We are! They are! They are KIDS!! All kids/people have their moments but by and large my boys follow expectations, act well in public, and are protective of one another. Nothing riles me more than negative boy comments [emoji35]! I remember when a family member gave me condolences when I was pregnant with my DS3. I responded, "Since when did welcoming a brand new person into the world become such a disappointment?!?" Ugh! I'm sorry you have to go through this!

(((Hugs)))

Fox - I understand all too well how you are feeling. I know I don't have another pregnancy in me (I am 41) and we just really can't do another child. I am coming to terms with another boy. Most make those stupid comments. I really do hate them. I head off the "hoping for a girl this time" with "It is most likely a boy and we are happy with that". My Mom has been real supportive and actually said she could not see a girl fitting in with our rough and tumble boy patch and that she welcomes another little man! It helped. I just wish this pregnancy was not so different from my others. It got my hopes up.

I just found out my baby girl died 2 weeks ago in utero.
At 17 weeks

Oh no Robin. I am so so very sorry to hear about your loss. HUGE HUGS. Wish I could hug you in real life. Praying for you and your family.

[Georgia_Peach]

I literally cannot deal right now. I don't even want to live to be honest. Like I cannot understand how I'll ever be happy again.
