Well...it's girl #3 for grasshopper. Last baby...time to let go of the dream.

3 girl is my dream family!!!

But I truly understand your pain!

Did you sway?
Is it the last baby for sure?

Big big hugs for not hearing boy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I'm glad your baby is healthy though xx

Sorry grasshopper... I think you have a good attitude about it. Knit her something nice, and pick a name for her that you love. Are you sure 3 is it for you?

[Persuing Lacey]

So sorry Grasshopper. I have followed your journey and was truly hoping you would get your boy. Sometimes life sucks. I hope you start to feel better with time.

Oh Grasshopper I'm so sorry! I'm pg with DD3 too. GD's a crazy thing (especially when coupled with pregnancy hormones) in that you can celebrate your healthy baby one minute and the next be sobbing about not having the gender you hoped for, but it does get easier as the days and weeks go by. We're here for you.

BIG HUGS, Grasshopper! That was me 2 years ago...except I have 3 boys. It's okay to cry--it's the loss (or postponing) of a dream. It doesn't mean you love your baby any less.

I think knitting is a great idea! I find out on Monday if this is boy #4 & have started knitting him a hat to try and make it easier. We'll see.

I hope you find peace.

I'm sorry but happy to hear that she looks healthy.

Thankyou everyone.

Am I sure that 3 is it for me???? Nope, I would definitely do it again, but 3 is it for DH and I knew that when we tried again so I would never expect him to have to change his mind.

At the risk of sounding like a woman in complete denial here, I am still not 100% convinced this baby is a girl. I had such strong feelings (and vivid dreams) that it was a boy...even saw his face!!! I am not living on hope here, I have accepted that we most likely are having a girl, but find it really hard to believe.

First of all the tech told me that he can't be definite as there may be a bit of cord between the legs, but he and I both saw the 3 lines quite clearly. He didn't give me a pic of the area even after I asked (didn't say no just didn't do it and I when I left I was a little distracted) so no potty shots to show anyone for their thoughts. Also told me that he has been wrong a few times before so didn't exactly instil a lot of confidence into me...he looked twice though (after I asked to check again but he really rushed it both times) and both times I saw 3 lines so I guess it is most likely girl.
I didn't want to push him for a better look as there was a lady waiting outside who was rushed over for the neighbouring town so obviously higher priority.

Just wish I knew with 100% certainty...but I guess believing girl and finding out boy at the birth would be a very welcome surprise...at least we are getting over the hard part now.

Crazy hormones...feeling a lot better today but something little can still manage to bring the tears on. Like right now my girls are playing with a little bouncy ball in the hallway and having so much fun...they are so cute that how could I possibly not wish for another....lol...tears.
