Ultrasound went really well today. Very active baby but I don't feel much movement from baby at all. Now I understand HOW some woman don't even know they are pregnant until they are about to deliver a baby! It's such an odd feeling.
Everything is as it's expected to be with one major part - we have a penis - AGAIN! I feel really upset for hubby. I wish I never ran with that 60% now and I think I only did because she was right with DS3. I knew that there was a chance she could be wrong and given that we have 3 sons already, I should have realized it probably was not going to happen. But baby is healthy and eventually hubby will get his head around things. But he's not any less loved because he's not a girl and I think that's important. A girl would have been nice but this is God's plan and if we are not meant to have a girl, then hubby said there is a reason even if we can't understand what that reason is.
What made the news even harder for him is his mother's comment. He told her and she said 'I want a Granddaughter so I guess you are trying again'. Excuse me but this is MY body and at the end of the day, it's up to hubby and I as well as my GP's medical opinion as to whether a further 1 or 2 pregnancies are possible!! And IF we go there, then it is OUR choice and has NOTHING to do with what you want! Way to go about making your son's disappointment all about you!

And what about DS1?! He's going to be devastated and all she could think about was what she wanted!!
I was DEAD SET that this was going to be our last baby but hubby's reaction just made me cry for the little girl that will never happen if we go that way. He's asked if I would consider one more pregnancy (possibly 2) and I have asked him to give me 3 years to finish my study and have a couple of years in my career I have worked so hard towards. That will make me 36 IF we try again and we know that my age could work against me - not only in falling pregnant and carrying a full-term pregnancy, but having a child without any issues. We also accept it may not happen but it's a risk I am happy to take for him if I get the green light from my GP. My heart aches for him because he just wants his own little princess. Fingers crossed that one day he will.
At the moment I am stuck with what color do we do for this baby?! Hubby thinks red because we have a blue, green and an orange baby. And my Harley Quinn theme is out the window but I will want to run with the card suits and the red, white and black theme. So, any ideas on panels for a quilt will be AMAZING because I can't find one with a Joker Card on it to complete things.
