August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

We want three children and eventually I would like to have at least one of each. I think a part of me deeply wants a girl eventually (not necessarily this time though, could be on the last try). I can't explain why, but it's important to me. I'd feel the same if I had girls I think, I'd deeply want a boy. I think it's because I want to experience being a mum to both. I don't know why that's important to me, but it is. I would love for my son to have a little brother, but would eventually like a little sister for him. So the pressure is off this time and even though I have a slight preference for a girl, I don't really mind and would love a boy as well, as I have loved having my gorgeous little boy.

I think we're having another little boy this time.

KirinM I really feel for you, with my girls my nausea was so bad I ended up on anti-sickness tablets... So far this time the nausea is there but bearable, but im still early on so we will see how it goes.

I'm mainly still knackered all the time and finding it hard to get up in the mornings.

Although twins would be a blessing my friend has twins and my goodness were they hard work!

Does everyone have preferences on gender? Because I have 2 girls already everyone is assuming I want a boy, I'm getting all the "Oh, hopefully you'll get your boy this time," and "Knowing your luck it will be another girl, hahaha" comments which are really annoying me because honestly I don't mind what the gender is, I would be happy with another girl and feel lucky if we were given a boy it doesn't matter to me.

We are getting the same comments about a boy... we have two girls and I keep hearing "hope you get your boy this time" or "I bet you have another girl"... we kinda "tried" for a boy but honestly will not be disappointed either way. We had a preemie last time so in just hoping for a healthy baby

We are going through the same thing! Our end goal is to have three healthy children.....gender does not matter. We would be thrilled with either. My husband actually said before our first was born that he could see us with three girls. Having said that, my intuition is telling me boy this time. (But I have been wrong before!)

I have not had any bleeding/spotting at all anymore (crossing fingers). My aunt who is an ultrasound technician reassured me that the bleeding that I had this past week may of been the subchorionic bleed leaving me

The only symptoms I am having are sore boobs, bloating, and exhaustion. So it's going pretty good so far.

I really hope morning sickness/sickness will wait until the 18th. We are going on our honeymoon next week to Florida, and I would hate to be sick on the plane, that is my biggest worry.

I think they are going to scan me at my first midwife appointment (January 31st), to make sure the bleed/cyst is gone. So I hope I will get a scan than.

I have two boys so we get the comments too but I LOVE having boys and would love another!! My hubs wants a girl so bad though either way we are thrilled!

Sick of being bloated so taking a Miralax cocktail and off to bed ladies! Haha not quite the glamourous picture of pregnancy I once dreamt of but eh we will make it through! Hope everyone feels good today!

I am in the same boat, except I have 3 girls so the first thing EVERYONE says is, "maybe you will finally have a boy?" Yes, a boy would be so cool, but being that I am "advanced maternal aged" now, I just want this baby to be just as healthy and happy as the first three. To make matters worse, DH has already convinced himself that we are having a boy... Wishful thinking I guess.

 

[KirinM]

I would love a little girl but my gut instinct is another boy. I think I'd like a girl simply because I have a son. I'm not sure I intend on having a 3rd due to my age but we shall see.

Feeling terrible this morning. Woke up and just felt very strange. Text my BF (he leaves for work early) to say I felt sicker than I have at all this pregnancy and then promptly threw up. Still feeling very delicate!

I'm sure my boobs are not as sore as they were. Do you think it's anything to worry about?

 

[MummyJade]

Morning ladies...

hope all is well...

I am feeling sick and have been close a few times this morning!! Back to school run tomorrow, so praying im not sick on the way to school! Need to book bloods at doctors too!

I have always wanted 3 children too... I have no idea why though! I would like a boy but I think its cos I have a girl already.. So one of each would be lovely.. But then girls i know what i am doing with them.. So am happy either way...

This is my OHs 1st so hes happy with either... x

I had a deep seated obsession with having a boy. I already had a daughter when I met my df and told him I'd love a son. When we had our 20 week scan last time and they said it's a boy I cried so much! Now I'm bappy either way. I'd love to give the in laws a girl, they only have boy grandchildren. But if this is another boy I'd be happy. I just want a happy healthy baby. A boy would be easier, we have huge bags full of boy clothes

 

[pootle33]

I think deep down I would like a girl as I have a little boy. My gut is telling me it's a girl but I don't know why. Last time I wanted a boy and thought it was a boy from the beginning so there might something (or nothing in it!)

Well my sickness on Friday was most definitely a bug and was back to just nausea on Saturday. Have felt it ramp up the last few days so I am hoping the next few weeks go by quickly!

My booking appt is next Tuesday and I'm hoping that since I saw midwife at 6 weeks to get height/weight/forms etc that I might near the top off the list for scan around 11 weeks (she seemed to think so). Only because I'm sure my stomach will be bulging by then!!!

Hope everyone has a good day...apparently today is the most depressing day of the year (but probably not if you're in Australia with the sun shining lol)

 

[KirinM]

Had a small amount of brown cm. I'm thinking it might be because I had sex yesterday. Determined not to panic (although I am).

 

[Damita]

I have energy hurrah! About time

 

[MummyJade]

This is my better day outta the last 4 weeks! I actually cant wait for tomorrow, back to school run and the daily routine... I bought some new bleach and I cant wait to use it! Yes thats how exciting my life is!! Ha!

Just booked my bloods at doctors for wednesday... hopefully i wont end up butchered!

I think my sickness is finally coming in.... Still not terrible, but feeling queasy in the mornings when I haven't ate yet... and yesterday I made brunch and my 5 year old wanted ketchup on her eggs (thank in laws for that one) and I couldn't sit near her to see or smell it.

 

[MissLM]

MummyJade, ikwym I sent dd1 back to school today and although its I miss her its so nice to have a routine back!

I hope you're ok kirin, whilst I would always get bleeding checked its not always bad, I had three bleeds throughout my pregnancy with dd2 and thankfully they were nothing serious.

Still waiting for a scan appointment, I'm so impatient, waiting for appointments and things to get started is so hard for me!

Happy 10 weeks to my due date buddies!

Hope everyone is doing well. I'm back at work after having to take last week off due to morning sickness. It was so bad after Christmas I thought it would never end! Luckily the Zofran has helped and I've been able to eat again and keep it all down. I still have bad morning sickness, but it is a lot better then it was, so I'm feeling grateful and can't wait for it to be gone completely!

Looking forward to my first doctor's visit on January 13th. After that we should be able to book our 12 week ultrasound!

I am so sick!! I have such a bad cough. I am coughing so hard that I have thrown up quite a few times. Saw a doctor yesterday, but at 10 weeks, there is really nothing they can do. (He said it is such a crucial time in development, that it is not worth risking to be on meds.) I have to agree, but I am miserable. Was supposed to be back at work today, but have been awake since 3:45 this morning. Time for a nap I think!!

Sorry for all of you that are sick! Roll on second trimester!!

Good morning gals,
I have my follow up this afternoon to see the babes. Hopefully both of them and I hope to see HB's.
I just have this horrible feeling that I'll lose one...although I know each week we go on, is better and better

Good luck today! I'm sure everything is fine with your babies. It's hard not to worry. Sending lots of good vibes your way

I've had nothing other than normal CM since earlier so I'm not too worried. I had spotting after sex before. If I see anything else I'll give the utterly useless midwife / GP a call. I find trying to contact them so frustrating!

With DD2 after sex I had bright red blood, it looked like a ton and I freaked out... gave the Dr a call and they said it was normal as long as not soaking pads, etc. The cervix is just very sensitive. It's all so scary!
