[Flava]

PP- how about a early gender blood test then? You lost weight and always eat? so jealous

aurora-sorry about your mom...

hobber -you can use photobucket ...how about I don't say a thing about skull shape ?lol

[rainbowflower]

wouldn't life be much less stressful if we had no idea about the existence of ramzi placenta location/nub/hamburgers or turtles.. I wish we didn't know so much nowadays!

this time next week I'll be able to relax more if I hear the heartbeat, baby will have passed the 11 week milestone where the first died and 2 weeks today until I can nub-guess!

trying to think of lots of positives for having another boy to prepare myself...

Having 2 boys is fun... and you save on clothing because you can pass everything down. All kids fight of course no matter the gender and age but atleast they have so much in common when they are the same gender.

If MIL would have never mentioned how much she wants a granddaughter to pass all her family jewelry too. I would have been perfectly happy with my two blue eyed flirts!

[Flava]

PP-OMG we are the same on that! I would be so happy with my first 2 girls I wanted! But then some one put a boy in our ears! GGGGRRRRRR and now we want a boy for us too so here we are.

Sucks doesn't it... I have had boy activities planned since I was a teen. They get to start Swimming lessons at 3, Sports at 4, Capoeria at 5, and Boy Scouts at 6. They can choose what sports they want to play every year (because of snow sports are limited). The option to play electric guitar and drums to show off to the girls. We hike, camp, boat, bike, and hunt at any location that is above 65 degrees or everyday where I live for about 4-5mths. They burp and fart at the table and laugh about it, ok maybe I don't like that much but a girl doing it is not polite.

I guess I will have to hope a girl would fit in and want to do some of the same things.

PP - as I've said before, I grew up the only girl in a house with 3 boys, and it was a great childhood. Yes, I was a little bit of a tomboy, but that meant I got to do cool stuff like hunt for frogs and play Star Wars. There was plenty of room in my life for girly stuff too - I played Barbies and My Little Ponies and had lots of girlfriends. I also got spoiled by my big brothers, and they take care of me to this day.

[auroara78]

Yeah, Mocha, you summed it up, I had just one older brother, but we played a lot togehter! We watched thundercats, he-man, all those shows, used to fight with sticks in the woods, play G.I. Joe, hot wheels...and I had a really really close best friend that I played my little pony and Barbies with, so I always thought I had the best of both worlds and I really thought my brother helped keep me balanced.

Can't wait till your gender scan Mocha!

Can't wait to nub-sess with you Rainbowflower! How are you feeling?

The idea for a girl never got planted in my head; I was a kid playing with Barbies trying out names on my dolls that my real life daughters might one day have. I never imagined having boys, though now that I got two, I love them so much, and they are so handsome, funny....I think it was a good way of keeping me open, you know?

Flava, I appreicate it, but my mom is how she is, and she doesn't really mean to be hateful, she just talks her mind without thinking, and I've learned to most of the time realize she's not ranting off the top of her head. She's just very lonely, etc, and then she makes it worst by sometimes being so nasty she pushes people away. I wish she'd change, but she's going to be 70 in June, and obviously, I don't see it. With age, she's just becoming more "it's my way or the highway." I try to just let it roll off, usually. Sorry I vented to ya'll

hmm maybe I'm a bit different then, in that I've never been fussed about having a boy at all! I'm one of 4 girls, and didn't have any experience of boys prior to having one! Whilst I love him deeply, I'd have been happy with all girls too. To be honest, boys scare me a bit because it's a whole big unknown in the future! I have no idea what sort of things boys do to play/enjoy!
PP I'm glad you said about scouts and sports and stuff, I'd love DS to enjoy camping and being outdoors and having fun... and have been thinking of lots of positives to having two boys today too so adding those to the list! Although I do also have jewellery I want to pass on to a daughter too (and, perhaps, to support a daughter through a pregnancy is more a key reason - I don't think you'd get the same relationship with a DIL)

Aurora - thank you for asking feeling both excited and petrified! (more anxious about seeing another dead baby on the screen than of seeing a boy nub)

I am very close to my MIL maybe because I have banned my own mother from my life. But my MIL is a wonderful person and even woke up at 4am to drive 5hrs to see DS2 being born. I talk to her all the time and sometimes it doesn't feel like she is my MIL more like my mom and friend.

[rainbowflower]

aww I want a MIL like that!! only met my MIL 4 times in the 5 years we've been together! she even cancelled coming to William's Christening and has only met him once because we went there.
