February & March 2022 miracles

[missielibra]

@Bloblo @patienceiav Honestly, I had a moment of sadness, Im not gonna lie. But then, I had been having fears about DS2 being the middle child AND "just the second boy" surrounded by the first boy and first girl (obviously I wouldnt see him that way!!) So in a way 3 boys, is perfect for that! SO all and all, Ive made my peace with no mini me haha. It'll be rowdy in the house and thats okay!

@Bloblo Id like to be updated to march 30th! Im a real march due date now haha! AND I saw your BFP!! Congrats on the rainbow hun!

 

[patienceiav]

@missielibra I wouldn't blame you at all, like "omg again?!" kids can be like night and day, even if they're the same sex! At the end of the day if they're healthy then mummy is happy

@Bloblo bless your heart for keeping an eye on us, and a big thankyou for coming back in to update our dates and teams! How are you doing now? Big hugs! Missie said you had another BFP!?!!! PLEASE hang out with us even though you're not having a March baby, you are missed

 

[Bloblo]

I did get my bfp just yesterday (so June babe if all goes well). I think I am 10dpo today

Here are some faint lines for those of you who like to look

hi patienceiav, I know I’m late joining but I’ve been very cautious I had bleeding all the way through until 13 weeks along with HG it’s not been smooth sailing!

thank you @missielibra

thank you! Congratulations on your rainbow baby! Tbh I’ve probably managed it really badly I could only eat fresh cold pineapple and rich tea biscuits.. feel like I’m starting to finally see the end of it but smells are still a huge killer!

Hello ladies!

We had a private gender scan today, we're having a GIRL!! sooOOOo pleased since my partner has 2 boys already, we're over the moon!!

Crummy pic but the potty shot had me thinking it was a boy before she said, since it was like... a back to front penis but we had another shot of the very clear 3 lines

@Bloblo please update team PINK on the front page when you have a moment

Yaayyy for a girl! Girls are great because you can still put them in boy clothes and give them "boy toys"... the other way around is somehow still frowned upon in society. I feel like boys lose out on so much...

Started my pregnancy journal if any of you'd like to follow. Also added a tracker to my signature

[patienceiav]

@Bloblo hehe for sure, there's no chance she won't be a lil geek girl in this house! Daddy is already determined she'll wear a tutu on her first day of school, she can dress like a punk rocker for all he cares but the tutu stays

Aww I'm so happy you are able to ad your tracker now, makes me so pleased to see

 

[missielibra]

@patienceiav congratulations!!!! And what an awesome scan phto! I'm very happy for you

@Bloblo For reals ! When I signed up DS1 for gymnastic (i noticed he liked it while doing the karate exercise and soccer), I got a few comments. Including from my mother. But I've got a temper, lol. Same when I bought a stroller for his plushies. I got, do you know what they'll do to him? And I reply, make him a caring, involved, brother/friend/future father????

The stigma is there, but I push! DH is latino, and wears a lot of pink (which looks amazing with his skin tone) and my kids get dark, especially in the summer. And they look just as handsome as daddy in pink colors!

My boys got stuck with a stubborn mommy haha... but they are comments and looks. Hopefully people learn to get their heads out of their butts!!

@patienceiav
congratulations on team pink!! We have our gender scan on Saturday I’m so nervous as my 3 little minions are hoping for a girl and I’ve got every faith there’s a boy in there cooking away!

@Bloblo
I agree with you on that one, my boys have always been able to express themselves, play with dolls, have their nails painted etc but many frown. It’s silly.

Congratulations @Bloblo so happy for you! I will be following your pregnancy journal

@patienceiav congratulations on team pink! Great scan pic.

@sammynashley welcome, congratulations on your pregnancy.

I am so bad at updating on here, I have only just been to update my pregnancy journal after being on for 2 weeks.

I have been speaking with my consultant and it has been agreed I will have a planned cesarean at 39 weeks so at the moment baby boy will be coming a week earlier w/c 31st January. I have a definite date at my 36 weeks appointment, she said that the only other reason it would be earlier than 39 weeks weeks is if baby was measuring bigger than should be or my GD levels are all over the place.
We have booked our last private scan which will be a 4d scan on 6th November, I wanted one when I was pregnant with DD but 6 years ago they were so expensive but now they aren't as expensive and as this will be our last baby it something we want to do.

 

[SuperwomanTTC]

Just checking in.... how is everyone doing and feeling?

I'm doing well. I've been taking newborn care, childbirth, and breastfeeding classes. Even though I have older kids, I feel like I'm brand new at this lol.

@Trixiebell 4D scans are awesome! Glad youll be seeing the little ones face soon!

@SuperwomanTTC my two kids have been alternating being sick or something else being wrong so. Ive been burnt out. Plus our gouvernement made it that federal workers need the vaccine or they go on leave without pay. So I had to get my 2nd dose and honestly, it put me out cold for like 5 days. I could barely get up

You know things and information change so fast, that its alwas good to get a refresh. Theres less than 2 years between all my kids, and each time they give me the baby Bible at my first pregnancy apt, its different ajd says different things!!

I have my anatomy scan finally. They scheduled me for nov 19th. Feels so far away!

Last doc apt at 16 weeks I had gained 1lbs so far since the beginning. Doc was not happy. But honestly, the nausea JUST started getting better. Hopefully I can eat more normally now.

Hey everyone!
I’ve not been on in a while but not much is happening. My bump is huge though! This picture was 20 weeks exactly.

I had my 20 week scan last week. Initially they told me it was a girl! Then they looked several more times since I told them we had already been told boy by a dna test. Eventually he showed himself! So basically if we had waited til the scan and not done the sneak peek, we would have been one of those couples who are told the wrong gender! Eeeek! So glad we did it now!

they couldn’t get a good picture of his heart so I’m a bit worried but have a repeat scan tomorrow afternoon. Everything else was fine but it looks like he might be quite small like his big sister as he is only 11oz. I’m not worrying as dd is 6 and I just threw out a 12-18m t shirt a few weeks ago and loads of 2-3 stuff still fits her.

Here he is at 20+5
