Hi Fiya

My 2 eldest are 3 years apart. I was trying to be so positive from the start especially for my DH. Hes placed so much of the blame on himself I didn't want to be acting a certain way to upset him more so i kind of just put on the mask. I want to use those clothes too 😊 dh isn't opposed to the technology im just not sure how he would feel if we use it. I'm wondering if it would heighten his feeling of being 'hopeless' that we would have to go down this road to get our dg.

After getting the information about HT, the simplicity of it and the fact its not as expensive (we're in Australia) as i first thought im really keen to give it a go. I think due to our age and great medical background conception/pregnancy/birth wise we have a really good chance of making it work the first time. Im ready to work about 10 jobs to fund the whole thing 😂😂.

I kind of have a timeline in my head if i get dh on board and im hoping we can go to the USA after ds5 first bday so August next year. I will be 33 and dh would be 34. I feel like ive asked so much of him already though so ive just researched myself but i think if i have all the info he may change his mind. I think the travelling part would freak him out as it would me too 😂 but im thinking an anniversary present to ourselves as we don't do much together except work and raise the kids.

Feel free to talk about your dg. Theres nothing id love more than to also be chatting about my dg too but im crossing everything for the future. I certainly enjoy seeing the pics and hearing the joy particularly as you have waited so long and its finally here xxx

Mum to 5 special princes

Fiya dont feel bad about sharing ur happiness as they say a happiness shared is doubled and a sorrow shared is halfed ... these forums are a way for each one of us to express them selves and get something back in return. Infact i hop on here from time and again to try to get out of my gloom by looking at ppl celebrating the miracle of life both those that succeded and those that did not.

Thanks everyone xo I think my brain is having trouble comprehending its real, I cant wipe the smile off my face lol

@mammacass - I would drive myself bonkers not knowing what I had, I also enjoy being able to buy certain baby items knowing the gender so for me I definitely find out, and I also tell family and friends too. But I have also not come across anyone who has pressured me to not find out so I suppose that makes it feel a little different. I think you do whatever your happy with, remember its your baby and your journey, so do what feels right/best for you Also, I hope the next 8 days goes by quickly and you get a good result xo

@netti - yes its hard when people say silly things in an attempt to either make you feel better or make you think you should be grateful for a healthy baby regardless of gender, like you arent already feeling that. Before coming to this part of the forum and doing a natural sway, we had started the process for HT with Dr Potter, we had got pretesting done and started setting dates for consults with Dr Potter and when we would head over to US. But we had some financial things change temporarily for us and then the Aus dollar dropped badly and it became quite hard for us to do it at the time. So I agreed to try one time naturally, boy did I pray hard about it!!! I hope if you go down that road, that it works well for you, there are alot of supportive ladies in that part of the forum who will help you through the process, it can get a little overwhelming but there is plenty of help and information.

@sweetdream - yes I will definitely be asking alot at any future ultrasounds to check she's really a girl :P

@Fiya - hehehe thank you, I love the things you bought, such beautiful colours I am yet to buy anything but its going to feel so weird when I go into the girls section for the first time!!!! and I also feel exactly the same way you do as far as celebrating when there are ladies struggling with not getting there hoped for gender. The last thing I want to do is create more heartache for anyone going through it, I know I would have found it hard despite being happy for everyone else. Also, I am glad to hear you are feeling less sick, I think that might be the case for me too, I think I am pushing through it better and eating more and that ends up making me feel better anyway. I am also EXHAUSTED!!

@Bluebooties - I am so sorry you are still struggling, I understand the feeling of zero excitement, until I found out the gender I refused to allow myself the happiness because I was too scared of how hard I would fall if it wasnt a girl like I hoped for. and on top of that, I felt bad for not being excited about just being pregnant in general. I hope once you hold your beautiful little baby, there will be some good feelings for you xo

Thankyou missiz, yes it is strange having people pressure you to not find out. They say please don't find out, keep it a suprise it's much nicer, and what difference is it going to make finding out etc but then they say if you do end up finding out they want to know [emoji849] Damned if I do damned if I don't lol.

[TaytumJ]

Mammacass - the anxiety of not knowing was REALLY hard for me in the beginning, but now I feel like I can put my GD aside and just enjoy the pregnancy and baby. I totally understand though being prepared ahead of time if it's not your DG, but I'm also confident that when it is time to have the baby even if it's not a boy, I'll just be so happy to have my baby in my arms! I enjoy people guessing, but I can see where it would get annoying for you if people kept saying something about your DG. It's a tough decision to make!


Team green baby due May 21! [emoji170][emoji166]

[XXforhubby]

If, big IF, I am fortunate enough to conceive our fourth baby while still BFing a young baby, I want to go team green. I think it would be fun to do for our last baby. I say that, but I'm a master at nubs! There was no way the tech could have stopped our boys from showing their parts during our NT scans!

People are going to make brass and insensitive comments no matter what. When you're pregnant, people feel they have a license to comment on things they wouldn't dare to comment on otherwise! It's almost as if carrying a baby is a public process instead of a private one. Makes no sense to me how seemingly logical people behave so badly during, what should be, a special time!


[emoji170]DS1[emoji125]🏼, DS2[emoji577], & DS3[emoji602] completes our family![emoji170]

[mammacass]

Thankyou Taytum and xx, I feel I need to know and will go ahead with the scan in 7 days, and I will decide from there wether or not I tell but I am truly leaning towards just hubby and I knowing until birth [emoji4]
