That's a bummer to hear! I have my gender scan at 18 weeks but mine will be with a 4D sono. This is my first pregnancy so I would assume those have a bit better of a chance to determine????

I think it all depends on the baby and the sonographer really. A 4D should be more detailed and easier to see I would think, but I really don't know. That was just my experience! I know there are lots of ladies that have found out earlier.

If my child is anything like me, they're going to be as stubborn and difficult as possible.

Nice, it's great to meet another Missourian (er, original Missourian, hehe). And the weather is great down here, the weather was absolutely gorgeous today. I'm sure that people are finding morel mushrooms already.

I've got a feeling in my gut that says that this pumpkin is a girl (so does my mother) but we'll see when I have my ultrasound on May 6th. I think that DF is secretly hoping for a boy, but he's been saying that he doesn't know or have any feelings on the matter either way. It's probably a defense mechanism for just in case so that he doesn't experience gender disappointment, especially since I have a strong feeling that it's a girl.

What, am I the only Husker girl on here? I am from Nebraska and almost in my third tri.

I love this thread! I'm Lindsey and I'm from southern Wisconsin.

We have our beautiful daughter, Finley who is 15 months, and #2 on the way in September.

Its awesome to see so many gals from the midwest! Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I have a feeling that this one is a girl, its so different from my pregnancy with my son. I could go either way though, I definitely won't have gender disappointment no matter what this time!

It won't be for very long! My daughter will be 20 months when #2 is born, so 4 months or so for us with 2 under 2!!

We can do it!

Awww, its definitely scary at first have 2 under 2. My daughter was 15 months when our son came, and I was a bundle of nerves, I begged dh not to go back to work and leave me alone. BUT, I can tell you after about a week alone with them, it doesn't feel so scary anymore. You adjust quickly, and it is far scarier going from 1 to 2 than anything (at least I think it is). Once you've done it, you feel like "I got this. I'm mom I can do anything they throw at me!" I haven't felt that fear at all with #3 coming. Good luck ladies! You'll do great! Just make a special timw for Mama and the older child to have special time together where its JUST her and Mama, no babies allowed. It definitely helps avoid the jealousy. At that age they don't "get" babies, they just see they're being replaced. If dad runs to the store, baby has to stay home amd big sis gets to go all by herself. Its little things that help let them know they're still super special!
