Due in March/April/May 2013 Roll call!

[Lassie1982]

So doing well with this gd stuff but then go to a craft fair and see an old co worker... Who I'm not crazy about
Standing there with her 2 girls she asks me if I know what I'm having (I haven't been able to keep it secret with anyone lol) so I say another boy and she says "oh L___, 3 boys! They have so much energy' and like tisking me... Wth? She sees I'm pregnant, what the hell good is that going to do for me?!? I almost think my gd would be better if not from all the judgement in the outside world!! And how the f does she know what boys are like? It's totally judgemental! I don't see how 3 boys will be any more work than 3 girls... Arghhh, people suck!

What a cow! That is so insensitive and RUDE. I'd have shot back with something like "dont pity me love, you've got the teenage years to look forward to - with 2 girls, you'll need more patience then mother theresa"

It is so horrible when people make comments.

I haven't had any 'nasty' ones as yet, but I have had a couple that have hurt...though I know the intention of the comment wasn't to be hurtful.
One of the girls at work (who is 26 but deadset has the maturity of a 12yr old) said "its going to be such a disappointment if its a boy!" I just shot back at said, "no actually it wont be a disappointment, as long as its happy and healthy is all that matter" and then she carried on with "yeh, but I'll still be upset for you"
I know she didnt mean it in a nasty way, she is just flippant and juvenile, but it hurt that anybody would label my child a 'disappointment'

The first time i felt mine was about 10 weeks, but it was barely there, and i really had to feel for it, and finding it was very hit and miss.
And then this morning, it literally popped, overnight. When i lie on my back its protruding, round and firm. DOnt worry, you'll get there

I noticed in your siggy you have a gender scan booked! Exciting
Are you having an NT aswell?

I'm supposed to - they said they would send the appointment in the mail. I figure if I haven't heard anything by the middle of this coming week, I'll contact them again.

I have had 5 pages of boy guesses here and 5 boy guesses on IG but looking at the confirmed girl pics over there freaks me out, i see some looking exactly like mine, i think we all just take the guesses with a pinch of salt and wait for confirmation. I can feel my uterus now and im 13 weeks along.

Honestly ,I know the experienced guessers don't do this ,but I feel like whatever the first person says sometimes other people just follow suit.. When it comes to nub theory..

Lol, I have noticed that, too, but didn't want to get yelled at for saying so. If someone replies with confidence, everyone else seems to agree. I've been watching several threads and have seen it on nubs that I felt could really go either way.

[spinningmadly]

Here and baby center almost all girl guesses for mine and on IG boy.. Just goes to show.

[Shellbelle]

Some girls were bumping threads three or four times with no guesses, IMO because it was just really hard to say either way, and as soon as someone comes on and says "very ___" there are six or seven similar guesses.

[spinningmadly]

Haha yup exactly , Its fun to see guesses but I know mine can go either way

On IG, my first was an "I'm not sure but I think maybe girl." Then someone said "that's over 30%" and suddenly there were all boy guesses. And I've had more than one person say "the nub is flat in the first shot but angled in the 2nd," but it can't be both a girl and a boy.

After talking with my tech friend and watching the DVD a couple of times, it seems to depend a lot on the moment the image was captured. For instance, one of my prints shows what looks like a bulb, but if you watch the video it is actually "junk" from the tech moving the image in and out to get a better profile. Some people have snagged potty shots that weren't focused on genitals, but on other parts of the lower body.

In other news, I am banning The Fresh Beat Band in the same way I banned Dora the Explorer. I just can't take another episode. Lol.
