Ah I'm sorry Amelia, I understand the overwhelm when you go through so much to get a specific thing and really what you expected doesn't happen. That's so hard.
I have 4 boys, and I'd have a cleaner, more quiet house for SURE with less boys, though whoever said they carry their Mom's in their hearts were really right. Two of my boys are teenagers, and they are my (crazy making) heart defenders. It's so sweet to see that. I cried about something the other day and it made my oldest (almost 15) tear up. Aww.
When you announce it, I would do it with great sure-ness so it cuts down on stupid comments "THRILLED for a great big bunch of busy, wonderful boys. Join us in celebrating" or something like that.
Hugs.

Aww Amelia I am so sorry about the loss of your sister. I can't even imagine what you are going through right now. I know that as soon as this little boy comes you will be so in love. Take the time you need to heal from this inside . I am sorry you had to go through the look of disappointment too. Your sway was great! You did the best you could. This baby boy is so meant to be with your family! We are all here for you anytime you need to vent or anything.

I feel like I'm still excited for the actual small human, but the idea of preparing is just incredibly boring. Everything that's even remotely my style is just a slight variation on something the other two boys had. I'm just so bored of blue and monkeys and trucks.

Congrats on a healthy baby Amelia..!
You know what I always think....just because those of us end up having girls after boys....there is no guarantee that the idea of mother daughter will live up to our expectations....
As much as it's said...(and yes I hate hearing it myself) ...the way the world is today....we are blessed that we have a healthy baby....and a happy one..
My mother in law has 2 kids boy and girl...and she has no real bond with her daughter.....just my husband....
Who knows how life turns out for us....especially when we have adult kids....we just have to keep fingers crossed ....regardless boy or girl....
And I really hope you don't get judgement....there is a reason boy mums bond so well together.....xxx

I just want to pop on and give big hugs Amelia (and all of you!) and echo what flomama said. I had a great, easy childhood, my mom was loving and kind, we did all sorts of family vacations, she was at my events, etc. However, we're just opposite personalities, hobbies and interests. My MIL and I are two peas in a pod (she only has 2 boys). We go shopping almost every weekend, we email basically daily, we get our hair done, text, go to craft shows, etc. My mom is my mom, but my MIL is like that best friend bond people picture daughters/mothers having. Like I said, my mom is phenomenal too, we just are opposites. It's just funny how that works out. ❤️ I hope you take all the time you need - what a blessing with 3 little boys!

Crazy! You spell your name the way we spell my daughter's. Taytum is such an uncommon name, let alone spelt that exact same way! I just had to say something lol
Today is the BIG day! I think we will have them write it on a card though and open at the right time. I have a lot going on with my business right now and do not want any distractions. Plus it'll take the pressure off of the ultrasound. I'll be able to just enjoy it... hopefully. It would be totally fine with me if it's a boy and he just decides to show us lol. Thanks ladies for all of your support.
So so sorry Amelia... if we are having another girl I know I will feel very similar to you. Love to you sweetheart [emoji177]

Wow that is crazy! It's actually my dog's name- I love it and we got her long before we thought about having kids so I used my favorite name on my dog haha. So beautiful!
Good luck today, I'll be stalking! I also swayed blue for my little guy, I'm sending blue dust![emoji170]DS1 5/2016

Amelia, my heart goes out to you. The first week of new GD was the absolute worst for me and then slowly things started to lift.
I hope this passes quickly and you start to imagine what this little person will be. [emoji170]
