Well, there goes my chance :(

jenn5388:

youcould very well have a girl with your friends! I don't think there's anyway to tell just because theyare having girls doesn't mean you won't too.

 I wish you luck at the U/S. I wouldn't loose hope. :)

Thank you. I just keep remembering what happened when I lost my 2nd daughter and my other 2 cousins were expecting girls around the same time as me. With all the horrible luck I've had in the past 20 years, I've become quite pessimistic and always assume the worst and never even consider the other outcomes. I figure "hey, if it happened that way before, it will happen again, but instead, this time I'll end up with another boy instead of losing a little girl."

 DAMN! Yet another "I'm having a girl" announcement. By my cousin's wife who is due the same day I am! I just can't freakin win for losing! [:'(]

Don't lose hope.

I have seen it all. I have been in the thick of trying for the perfect family for 12 years! 

Statistically I shouldn't have had as many losses as I have had . (I have more than I have listed in my signature)

I shouldn't have three boys when my husband's IDENTICAL twin has girls!

I had perfected odds for high tech and a perfect sway. None of it resulted in a girl.

Keep you chin up and pray for pink . Don't read into things too much it will make you crazy.

In your wait live in the moment. Do things to make your moments special. Like extra pillows on the bed and a great movie. Just don't look into the future too far.

Life isn't fair and that can be a good thing or a bad thing but it can't be predicted.

OK . I am getting of the soap box . LOL Hugs to you . I hope you hear girl soon.

Thank you. I'm trying, I really am and I'm sitting here fighting back tears right now. It just upsets me everytime it happens to someone ELSE and not me! My cousin wanted a girl and he got one! My other friend wanted a boy and still got a girl (and just had a girl 6 months ago)! and my third friend who is pregnant didn't care either way and ended up with a girl. Me? I'll be the one who ends up seeing a penis on Friday . I don't want to go to my appointment now. I am so upset. Why them and not me? [:'(]

Aw, I'm so sorry hun. I hate that too. Knowing that other people got what you desperately want, and you didn't. I'll eat my hat in shock if you don't get your girl! Not long until the scan now!

I think that your pink vibes are slacking....come on keep up those vibes I need them as much as you do so keep faith. It is out of our hands but lets dream for a few more days...... HUGS

This little engine that could, just can't anymore . I haven't cried this much in years [:'(]. I feel so defeated . I was actually starting to gain back some hope lastnight but then after seeing my cousin's announcement, that just knocked me down a few pegs. I'm cursed. I feel like with atleast 3 or 4 other people I know all due in the same month as me having girls, there is no chance in heck I'm going to be as lucky as them and have a daughter too. My life is just one long string of bad luck . This is so not fair . I'm seriously considering not even keeping my appointment. For the last 19 weeks I have prayed so many prayers for this little one to make it. Just as much as I prayed for their survival, health and safety, I prayed that this would finally be the daughter I hoped for for so many years. Every prayer up to this point has been answered. I have made it past the point where I lost my son 7 months ago. I guess asking for a daughter was just pushing my luck and being greedy. I really didn't think I was that horrible of a person that I deserved to be so miserable for my time here on earth. I honestly believe my dad cursed me because he didn't want me and my birth mother decided to have me. I was actually happy for most of the day today because I was getting good news about a lot of different things. Going back to work after my slip and fall injury a month ago. Winning a contest on facebook when I've never won anything in my life. One of my closest cousins agreeing to host my baby shower. Then I find out that my cousin's wife is having a girl and everything else just deflated. The white flag of defeat is calling me and I'm closer than ever to giving in.

Hang in there it isn't over until it is over and in this case I don't care how many tears you cry the min you hold that baby boy or girl your heart will melt. You need to keep that appt b/c how silly will you feel if you miss it continue to be upset all this time till Aug and then have a wonderful baby girl. If you find out now you can cope and when the baby is born none of that will matter in that min. It will never change that fact that you want a girl but it will be love for the baby you have at the time. We are moms we are the strongest people in the world and after all you have been through I think you might just be super mom. You are here for a reason and this baby is coming into the world for a great reason it may take many years to find out why but one day you my have the next million dollar man, or president, or even better someone who is someone elses hero. These are the things we so often forget that maybe there is more to this picture than we can see but there is a reason. Hang in there keep that appt. and hope. I am praying not only for pink for both of us but for you to feel better about the little one you are so blessed with. You are strong and a GREAT mom already it will only get better.

 I am so much like you. I allways look at what friends and people around me are having to determine my chances of a girl. This theory was actually wrong for my first. I was working at the time and 3 girls at my work just found out they were having girls and so many of my friends were having girls so I thought there was just no way I would have one too. The odds were not there. But, I had a girl too. If you think about it, there could be a group of friends all having boys a town away from you and that evens it all out, you know what I mean? Your odds are still 50/50. I know you just don't want to get your hopes up but I totally get it, I do. With my last I thought for sure it was a girl because all my friends were having boys and that left odds for a girl but I was pregnant with a boy too. I ended up losing the baby but I am pregnant again and doing the same thing as you, hoping not too many people around me are having girls so I still have a chance hahahha. I just wanted to tell you that I totally get it and wish you the best!

 Thank you for all your support and encouragement ladies . This is the only place I can come and EVERYONE understands how I feel without judging me or saying mean things. All lastnight all I kept hearing from other people was "as long as its healthy, and be glad you can even get pregnant, blah, blah, blah." As if I weren't feeling bad enough, then they say those things as if I'm ungrateful when I'm very grateful. I cried for hours lastnight [:'(], went to bed with a horrible headache, woke up with a headache and am still upset. I think I've gone into a deep depression or something. I don't know. Every time I have a small glimmer of hope  that this is finally my little girl, I think again and insist "It will never happen to me . Everyone ELSE but not me. I just told me SO that I feel like a complete fool for calling the baby "she" for all this time. He keeps telling me to relax, but I can't. The mere though of going to the doc on Friday literally makes me sick to my stomach. I feel like all these shots, appointments, and all the hell I'm going through just isn't worth is just for another boy 

HopingForAPrincessSoon, I will keep everything crossed for you. You are a very strong woman and I hope you get your little girl.

 Don't worry about that! Even if you have tons of friends who get baby girls - this data is not statistically valid. Even if you had 1000 friends expecting a girl - your chances would still be 51:49.

So don't worry - it'll turn out fine

Thank you. I feel weak and helpless right now. I so wish there was a way that we could have more say in the gender of our kids.
