(44) Little Presents - Due in December 2013

[threegirls]

Thank you! I hope so too but I'm not overly optimistic about it. We did gender sway to a certain degree. I read the book by Dr. Shettles on how to sway for a boy. Changed my diet and timed everything but in the end it's not up to me it's up to a higher power. I just wanted to increase my chances a little bit. If it's meant to be it will be (or that's at least what I keep telling myself)

I know how you feel about trying again. I'm getting older too and I'm not so sure I would want to do this again. It's been 5 years and I can already tell a difference in how hard this pregnancy is compared to when I was younger. Plus I'd really like to raise my kids and spend time enjoying my husband when we're not too old lol

The family line we wanted to use (MILs maiden name) actually already died out with my MILs generation, but my husband revived it with him and when I married I took that name. So far we have two girls and I expect another. Thankfully OH isn't too worried anymore about keeping the name alive; I mean, he's sad about it, but he's accepted that it will probably die out again. I guess it just wasn't meant to be

As for the Shettles method; we looked into that to sway for blue, but then I found an article that said it was all nonsense. I can't find it right now but it was basically proven that Shettles guessed a lot and just published it as fact when he was actually wrong. I hope you get your boy though; fingers crossed.

I had my first baby when i was 25, and I will be 29 when this baby is due - I know I don't want to continue having babies into my thirties; even now I can feel the difference with each pregnancy. My mum had babies at 32 and 34; I can't imagine having to go through all of this again, 5 years older

Have I gone crazy or is a whole page of comments missing? I posted saying we will miss drgomps and another post about my baby kicking. Other people posted too and it's all gone. Did I imagine this?

No, I imagine a mod deleted them.

Congrats on feeling kicks! I haven't felt anything really solid yet, more just of butterfly twinges.

Ok thanks! Just making sure I wasn't crazy. That's very bizarre that they would have deleted them

Anywho I DID say that I've been feeling lots of real kicks but that each time my DH is actually home to feel it she stops as soon as he comes to feel he still has plenty of time I suppose

DHBH my little girl will be kicking like crazy but as soon as my husband tries to feel her she stops, no command performances I guess lol

Haha.. I guess our girls are shy about their kicks right now and don't want to share them with their daddies till they are stronger

 

[Kaiecee]

I feel my kicks but I'm waiting till they are a little stronger to tell dh to touch

She was having issues with the site, and has decided to take a break from it.

 

[AJCart]

Ahh, ok then. I must have missed all that. Thanks DHB!

 

[Kaiecee]

[elleff]

How's everyone doing? Does anyone have red raw gums?

 

[Kaiecee]

Yes I so hate brushing so sensitive

My 19 week scan tomorrow! not at all worried about baby being healthy since now I have kicks everyday as reassurance. HOWEVER, I have to admit I am a bit worried that they will tell me its a boy now. My private scan said it was clearly a girl, the pic I have shows that there was nothing between the legs at 15.5 weeks... I wouldn't have been upset to find out its a boy at that u/s but now I would be disappointed since I have gotten attached to the idea of having a daughter for the past few weeks.... Part of me is so sure it is a girl since it was a clear pic on the u/s but there is still a part of me that thinks "what if" the parts were just not big enough at that time

Am I totally crazy for worrying about this??? I'm still excited to see HER again, especially since it will be a detailed anatomy scan

my scan is tomorrow too

I think that's normal. With our last baby we found out she was a girl at the 20 week scan, and then we had a 4D scan at 27 weeks and I was worried too. I would have loved a boy, but we'd already started calling her by her name and gotten used to the idea of a girl.

We haven't found out the sex of this baby yet; tomorrow is the day

That's what we have done, already referred to her as Kayla, we will find out in like 7 hours...

Exciting! Can't wait to hear what you're having!
