*~*~* The Decemberists! *~*~*

I've changed my mind,I think girl now!

You think girl now? Why's that? Just curious.

Any news from any of the TTC ladies?

I'm still lurking but no news to tell you! We have had a couple of months taking it easy. I've stopped temping and OPK as I know when I OV anyway and the temps were just stressing me out since I could see a temp drop a day or so before AF which was getting me down - again I can feel AF coming, get spotting etc so didn't see the need for any more confirmation of the inevitable!

We're still trying although have had much BD'ing this month so think I'll be out which is no bad thing as we both have a very busy summer . . .

I feel a lot more at peace with it though. I'm sure it will happen at some point due to the chemical before but having done everything to try to make it happen it seems pointless - I obvioulsy can't control nature so might as well let nature run its course IYSWIM?

Hanoy - good luck tomorrow . . . has the MS completely gone now?

Everyone else - thinking of you all and looking forward to start meeting the little ones soon (but not too soon!)

Yep, because of the shape of your bump

Good to hear from you mini, still been thinking of you and always sending good vibes your way. Sounds like your attitude is really good and I'm sure it will happen for you

 

[seaweed eater]

Thanks for the update mini! I think you have a great attitude and I'm sure it WILL happen for you soon. But it's great that you have a lot of other stuff going on in your life so that there's no urgency. Take care hon, and keep us posted!

Unfortunately it hasn't gone away completely. I did have 10 blissful days with no throwing up, but it has come back the past couple of days in the mornings.

I never would have thought about that I am so nervous to find out! I dont know if I am going to be able to sleep tonight!!

Han - what's the news? I'm hoping for girl to keep my pink bump company! Don't rely on MS to be a good predictor of the sex - I had none!

Mini - lovely to hear from you and as the others say you sound like you're in a really good place at the moment so I'm sure you'll get a nice surprise before long

I've booked my baby-moon - going to a v luxurious spa break on the 8th of august. 1 last big treat for myself and DH It's also our 4th wedding anniversary so it'll be a lovely little trip

That's wonderful, I'm sure you will love it! Going to the spa with my mom a few weeks ago was really nice. Getting a massage was great for my back, and everyone who did my treatments had amazing stories about their own pregnancies and children!

DH and I thought of staying somewhere nearby for our last getaway before baby, but I think to save money we're just going to set aside a weekend for day trips. I don't want to go more than a couple hours from home at this point anyway, just in case.

Can't wait for your news, HM!!

 

[smawfl]

Ah that's lovely, baby moon sounds amazing!!

 

[HanyouMama]

So, the baby is looking good and is right on in growth, but that little stinker wouldnt uncross its legs! We tried for 40 minutes just to tell the gender and it just wasnt playing nice Luckily my sonographer is so nice and she is fitting us in first thing in the morning to see if we can tell the gender. She isnt even charging us extra to go back in So hopefully baby will cooperate tomorrow so we can find out.

Good luck with round two! Bring some fruit juice

 

[HanyouMama]

I already bought some fruit juice and am hoping it helps out. I was a little bummed that we couldnt find out today, but im praying tomorrow will get us the information we wish for Mama needs to prepare!!

 

[seaweed eater]

Aww I got so excited when I saw yours was the last post! Absolutely bring fruit juice, COLD if possible, and you could even drink something caffeinated beforehand. I didn't actually do this but I was thinking about bringing an ice pack along, too, since apparently they don't like that and will sometimes try to move away from it.

Ours has been kind of awkward at every scan so far except the 20-week one, which is when I made a real effort to get him moving (I had some juice at home and then some iced tea in the waiting room)...could have been a coincidence but I think it made a difference!

 

[HanyouMama]

I will definitely try the juice! I am really hoping that it will be a nice baby and let us see what it is

 

[HanyouMama]

We're team
Here is the funniest potty shot ever! You can see his little feet and then there is no denying its a boy!

 

[Pusscat]

Congratulations Han I'm on my phone so can't see the photo very well, but glad it's a clear shot!

 

[seaweed eater]

YAY CONGRATS!!! Glad he cooperated today!

BTW, I never knew BERDC and clearly she hasn't kept in touch with this thread, but I happened to see on a different thread that she had her baby! I guess it's our first Decemberist baby!

 

[smawfl]

Woohoo a boy! This group is very boy heavy! I wonder if any of the yellows will turn pink!

Ah how lovely. I think she decided to start TTC earlier than Dec in the end
