The new Gender Specific Hopefuls thread (2014)

[motherofboys]

I know that feeling, people say that I should see the hope in it, if others can get girls after 4 then it's possible for me to as well. I see it as the opposite, as reducing the odds of it being me. Someone has to have a 5th boy. If I just take it from the people I have met from this forum and this (and the previous version of this post) of the 2 people I knew who had 4 boys, 1 had a 5th boy and 1 had a girl. It side of the forum I also know another person with 4 boys and expecting a girl. So that makes me feel like the odds are that I will have a 5th boy just to keep the balance of the world and nature and all that. I know it's rubbish and what one person has does not make any difference to what I have but as another friend had a girl, when her boyfriend already has 3-5 boys (long story, apparently his ex wife cheated. ive been told 2 different stories on how many times) I feel that every girl born after boys stacks the odds against me

Hope it's not much longer hun xx

so just this second found out one of my best friends yellow bump turned pink today. She's got 2 boys already like me so thrilled for her but at the same time feel really jealous. Can't shake the feeling it'll never be me. Arrr.

I had the feeling too .. And I was right!

Two of my friends with boys went on to have a girl so I felt the same as Motherofboys that the odds were majorly against me as we couldn't all possibly have girls!

Does anyone else always get that pang when someone announces they are having a girl!? Especially if it's their first pregnancy - like what? How did that happen? And also ...a really terrible feeling but when someone else announces a boy - I feel like phew! I'm not alone
I wonder if that will ever go away?
Hormones are all over the place - I'm so excited about having my boy now and don't wish he was a girl. Odd feelings

 

[katherinegrey]

I felt the same in my pregnancies. There's a thread on here I follow, and two girls right before I found out found out they were having a girl after a boy and I thought the odds were not in my favour as it's unlikely all three of us would get girls.
I feel it'll never be me, which is why I was looking into the ivf. Realistically I don't think it's something we'll be able to do so I feel like I'll never get a girl now.
I've got to see a specialist about damage my births did to me and I've heard they sometimes have to perform a hysterectomy if there are complications in the surgery and I feel like I bet it's me that ends up having one and then I really will never have another baby let alone a girl.

 

[motherofboys]

Someone I know who recently had a girl after 3 boys had such horrible pregnancies, especially with her 3rd that she said she couldn't do it again and that in a few years when they were more financially stable she would adopt a baby girl. A couple of months later she found herself unexpectidly pregnant and it was her girl.
It's an option to be considered if you are in a place where you know you have to have a daughter in your life. I know if it were me I wouldn't be able to say I wanted a girl specifically and would probably end up adopting a boy ha ha!

 

[EmyDra]

I briefly thought about adoption but it doesn't seem right. Girls are in 'higher demand' and are much more likely to find homes whereas so many boys just grow up in the system. I'd end up with another boy for certain!

Think we'll have a fourth. And what will be will be.

Thanks ladies. Nice to know I'm not alone! Xx

 

[motherofboys]

Broody over load today.
I think that's the best attitude, what will be will be. It's so hard to not keep thinking "just 1 more, the next one could be a girl"

Driving myself mad here. AF is due Friday/Saturday. Last night I had the teensiest but of spotting and that was it. After losing my pills and not realising until it was too late I could be pregnant. When I was ttc I was an obsessive early tester. Knowing I'm so close to AF has me wanting to test! But I know it will be negative and it will have been a waste of money on a test. I have such mixed feelings as well, I hope I am but I know it's not the right time so I hope I'm not too. Arghhh

Hey lady's congrats on everything that I've missed and I need your help one of my very best friends is pregnant she has 2 boys and 2 girls already but they decided to stay team yellow this time anyway as it happens she had to have a cvs test so the hospital know the baby's sex ������ she wanted to find out when they rang with results but DH didn't so she's been in a right huff with him since so do any of you have any ideas based on these scan pics??

I'm rubbish at guessing lol
It's good to see you here, hope you will get your girl one day. I'm away with friends this weekend so would be typical for af to show and put the dampeners on our fun.

 

[geordiemammy]

You never know!! Mine is due in a week and I've been spotting for during the day this week but it's stopped at night I'm bloody sick of it xx

 

[motherofboys]

That sounds really annoying. I've not had any more spotting today, but I don't really know what to expect because I was on the pill fur a couple of months. If there's nothing by Monday I will test.

 

[geordiemammy]

I was on the pill came off and went back on it normally I just don't have anything which is why this spotting is so bloody annoying xx

 

[caro103]

I'd guess boy for her but I seem to be getting it wro every time atm lol

good luck either way motherofboys xx

 

[motherofboys]

Af arrived fully just before I left Friday morning.

Hello

Not pregnant yet but have a little girl and would love another one. Came off my pill 3 months ago and have been charting but not trying hardcore. Wouldn't exactly say I'm swaying as not following all the things to do but trying to avoid sex at ovulation as my daughter was conceived 4 days before O (could be coincidence but I'm sticking with that)
