Gender Specific Hopefuls

congrats pink ribbon!

Geordie I hope Harvey is doing ok now.

I hope there will be one more in my future, at the moment I don't feel thats very likely. Pretty sure I have another boy lol
 
He is getting there and starting to gain weight better now thank god hows you motherofboys x
 
Geordiemummy that sounds absolutely terrifying, you poor thing! And poor LO! Hope you have no more worries with him from here on out! :hugs:
 
Oh good.
I just received the appointment for the postnatal check and Seths first jabs. Can't believe how fast its going.
 
I've got Harvey's on the 12th totally dreading it but the poor lad is used to injections and stuff already he has had his heal pricked at least 23 times since he was born had cannulas in I feel horrible taking him for more needles think it might be a daddy job xx
 
Yeah I know I kept crying in hospital and they said its harder for you cause you know he doesn't and he won't remember x
 
I think I'd be the same though, thinking of your baby going through something like that.
 
Just thought I'd update. I wanted a boy but got a girl. I've accepted it now and I am so EXCITED to meet her!
 
I'm back in the GD world. Looks like DH has decided no more babies, he is convinced he can't make girls so seems to think its best to not try at all. I know space wise, financially and age wise (for him) it makes sense but I wanted one more regardless. The hope of a girl was still there, I didn't realise how strongly.
Adverts for girls toys, or girls clothes can have me holding back tears because I will never buy them for my daughter. I wouldn't swap my boys but I think I would take the decision to have no more babies a lot easier if there had been a girl somewhere in the mix. I'm having trouble with Seth this week, he cries most of the morning, is ok for the afternoon, then cries most of the evening. I feel like such a rubbish Mum and today he has cried almost non-stop other than to doze off for 10 minutes at a time, and I know its the wrong way to be thinking but I feel I'm being punished because I wanted a girl so badly and that if I didn't have GD then he'd be happier. Instead of feeling like I had done something right and so had been blessed with more boys I feel I did something wrong to not get a girl and that its all very unfair.
I've even considered saving up and going high tech but I would take so long to save that we'd only get one go, and I might not even get pregnant, then I've wasted all that money on a selfish dream when I could take the boys on holiday or something.
Just wish I had the chance to sway so I could say I gave it my best shot.
 
Motherofboys i know how you feel I'm not having anymore now even though it me who probably can't carry girls it still hurts and your so NOT a rubbish mam Harvey screams all bloody night from around now til 11-12 Seth will pick up on how your feeling so try and chill out and enjoy him while he is still little!
I hate the girly ads on TV girls are so much easier to buy for cause there is so much boys are much harder you still never know you might get another go at a girl he may change his mind my OH is point blank saying no more but to be honest I would be scared and even though I know I would have another boy if I had another there is still that slight chance I guess that it could be a girl!! But don't think your a rubbish mam cause your NOT your fantastic and your boys love you just think you will probably get grand daughter and you will be able to spoil them rotten and have all the good bits but none of the girly tantrums and that there will be a girl in your future xxxx
 
Thanks, I feel silly now for spilling it all but I've been so much more emotional today and couldn't keep it in any longer.
 
I know I'm thinking about it the wrong way but I just can't help think of the things I never do rather than what I will get to do. I think I've been lying to myself, when I think back, I think I kept telling myself I wanted boys and that I only hoped for a girl for DH to avoid disappointment and that it didn't matter as there would always be the next time. Now there is no next time. I can't even explain to DH why I'm so upset because he puts the blame onto himself and makes me feel bad for making him feel guilty.
 
That must be really hard for you both but he honestly might change his mind x
 
Just thought I would update... We miscarried out baby last Tuesday :cry:

Feel bloody awful for wishing for a girl now.
