September 2013 babies!!

[divakotka]

Love your attitude Thorz. Way to go! And aren't little boys like your DS so sweet? What was your hubby's reaction? And how did the FB reveal go?

I hope you ended up liking the place you went to. I'd feel bad if it hadn't been a good experience.

I liked the place just fine, and the lady was really nice, I was just a little upset at first because she at first said girl for a split second and called the baby a her and then said "Oh I'm sorry......I'm pretty sure I spoke to soon", and then found the boy bits. That was really hard on me, because my heart leapt out of my chest with excitement and then fell and crushed to the floor breaking into pieces all within a matter of moments, it was really hard!! My DH really wanted a girl too, but is fine either way (i'm sure it would be different if we were having our 4th girl, he would probably care more because like every mom wants a daughter, every dad wants a son) anyway, he has been very comforting and loving and taking care of everything around the house including the boys so I can grieve for tonight. I'm already feeling better, my friend stopped by with cookies. She finds out the gender of her baby next week, I'm sure it will be a girl, thats how things work for me. LOL

Omg that's terrible being told girl first! I'm gonna make sure to tell my tech not to say a thing till she knows for sure and if shes not sure to not guess cause that doesn't sound fun! I kinds look forward to mine being a boy as crazy as that sounds lol my DH really wants a girl cause of the whole autism thing he said today if it's a boy he will just assume he has it and won't be excited! That made me sad

[divakotka]

Aaaahh I would have been crushed too! That is NOT okay! I wish she would have taken more time until she was certain. I'm sorry that happened to you....

Did she also make sure that it wasn't the cord between the legs? I asked all those pesky questions during my scan. What about this, or what about that? Hehe.

What a good DH you have. My DH told me that he would be more disappointed if he had three girls and no boy (even though he really was hoping for his little "princess").

Take your time to be sad. You don't have to get it all out of your system in one night. I feel 90% just fine now but the first couple of weeks after finding out, feelings sort of came in waves and caught me by surprise. It may not be that way for you at all. Just thought I'd share.

[Thorz300]

Oh I promised I would tell you that girl name that popped into my head, it was..... Macie Anne, I guess I'll never get to use that name, I really loved it

[WantingPink]

Thorz I am sorry you didn't hear girl. I am so glad you have an understanding and wonderful DH who is supportive of your wanting to grieve. Take care of yourself and hope you feel better about it soon!! With a DS that is so sweet I am sure it won't take long. I love my two boys also and they are always kissing me and hugging me. It is a special bond and now you will have another sweet DS giving you hugs and kisses. Congrats and hope everyone's comments on FB are kind

Congratulations Thorz on a gorgeous bubba! What a cute profile. Im sorry you didnt hear the news you were looking for, but I know this little man is going to bring you all so much love, laughter and joy. He was meant to be here, and with sweet gorgeous big brothers, he is one lucky little lad. Give yourself time to grieve, we are all here for you. You dont have to be brave here, even though you may feel you need to put that brave face on at home and around friends, here you can open up and that honestly is the best thing. Over time this will all start to feel right. Thinking of you hun x x x

Hey congratulations on your boy! Remember that every thing happens for a reason! I have my gender scan 27th of April and have kept it a secret from everyone. I'm going away for 3 nights when we have it so figured I could come to terms with the news on my own. E.g no family opinions etc.

I posted on another website that a accupuncturist I go to says she can tell gender from your pulse. She had it right with both my boys and I thought you might all like to try it. Maybe it's better for a professional to do it but give it a go to see. You hold ur finger on ur wrist , check both arms not at the same time! One wrist will feel stronger, my right does, which is the reason she thinks girl. It's right for a girl left for boy. With my 2 boys I remember her saying it was my left both times and I shrugged it off and hoped she was wrong as I wanted a girl! It was right though! Anyone wanna try x

[Wanting-a-girl]

26 hours for me cant wait to not have to wonder constantly!!!!

That's really interesting Mel, I've never heard of that before. I just tried it and feel a definite stronger pulse on the right, but don't want to get my hopes up! Lol fun to do though x
