Today Im asking for your words of encouragment..UPDATE - what baby is

Canadianttc#4, in my last pregnancy at the beginning, i also had this real deep wish for a girl, but there was somekind of feeling that i might be wrong, i want to say...the intuition is right but sometimes it corelates and interferes with this deep wish, so i thought it must be my girl...but it wasn't....on the other hand one woman who has 3 boys and after that a girl, now she is already grandmother to many granchildren, i spoke to her, and she told me, in the 4th pregnancy, that was unplanned, she knew immediately that she is carrying a girl....

please dont rely so much on any or other "feeling". Feeling let serve you only to keep hope, as you have all chances open for now, no matter what the feelings say....so all is open, i mean the gender is already determined, but opened is the result...you will have it clear at 20 weeks, if you didnt have a really good nub shot.

i hope you hear girl hun, i know how much you want one but i know you will love another boy too. i was so positive this was a girl. i did a heck of a girl sway without realizing it, plus i had just convinced myself i coudln't carry boys. i was shocked to hear its a boy this time. im too scared to have it confirmed now. i skipped my 20 week scan for fear they would tell me its a girl after all. i know i know i'll reschedule.

but remember if you do have a girl you will be in the same boat im in... i feel sad this little guy will never have a brother. i watch the girls run off to play barbies or princess or something and what happens when i watch little brother left all alone? do i sway for another and risk more girls, or do i count my blessings? i don't want him to be lonely.

Baby is so little at 13 weeks! You still have a good chance to have a girl. I don't like that comment b/c comparing u/s photos isn't scientific at all. I have 3 girls and their u/s are all different. My DD2 had the cord between her legs and I thought I had ruined my "surprise" and  she was a boy. (we found at birth she was a she)

Good luck! Your intuition is most likely right!

I'm the perrson who made that comment and it was because she was asking about the skull theory, not the nub. The response was not meant to be scientific nor did I lead her to believe so. I then posted something about the skull theory that I found online for her to read that seemed to support my mentioning that it didn't look like my dd's u/s pic (which would support the theory) and that her's looks more like a boy based on the theory. In the end, I truly hopes she gets her dd, but this is a forum and she was asking for an opinion, which I gave honestly!

 I so, so hope you hear girl, I am praying for you too!!!  I am in Manitoba and they have private ultrasounds here, where in Canada are you?  Maybe you could go earlier to a private ultrasound?  I went to one when I was pregos last time BY MYSELF, I did not even tell my DH.  I knew that I was going to be extremely disappointed if it was not a girl...and it wasn't.  Thank God I went by myself because it was a boy and on the hour ride home I CRIED, and CRIED, but I got over it and now I would trade him for a Billion little girsl!!! 

I have read all your posts and I know you love your boys, you just really want a girl!! I really hope you hear girl!!

 I just called the U/s place again- making sur ethey dont do the ultrasounds before 20 weeks.  lol.

This isn't my 2nd boy, or my 3rd boy this May be my # 4 boy- I do know boys.  I love my boys.  when we had our last one- i knew boy- but hoped girl - and when they said girl I was crished. and my dh was so good he said "were still having a baby"  by the afternoon I was fine.. that same day. 

I KNOW in my heart Illbe okay - but I also know this is it- 4 is my limit.  Both dh and I work full time.  I have to have a stopping point where  we don't just keep having kids "to have a girl".  This time -- I did things differently.  i prayedto God for not a Girl but for what God wanted me to have-so now I feel like what did God think I need? today has been so bad... I feel nuts.. God knows I want a girl.. but I also know God has the plans - not me.  My boys are so wonderful- I have to say - but I feel like life is on hold. .. waiting untilI know what this baby is..

Ill definately keep everyone posted... just feel like Im loosing my ind.. Im at work typing like a mad woman - as Im "scared it might be  abopy- the rational part of me is like wtf - get over it the real part of it - is holy shit. lol 

I never have dreams its a girl.. when I had my boys it was always a girl - this one I have dreams its a boy... 

This pregnancy has been so different from my boys.. Im still sick at 17 + weeks. I am gaining weight differently.  feel differently.  look horrid- nothing liek when i had my three boys.  who knows.

ahh I could have written this exact post! This might be my 4th boy, also. In fact, I think it is a boy. Now, I don't know if that's some way of protecting myself from getting my hopes up about a girl, or what. DS1 I knew he was a boy. KNEW IT. DS2, I went back and forth. And DS3, I knew he was a girl. KNEW IT! Was absolutely convinced. My heart and my gut were telling me he was a girl. So I was so excited for my ultrasound, and a little crushed when I was told 80% chance boy, and then confirmed boy one week later. But, I was ok! That same day, within hours, we were already discussing boy names. But I see where you are coming from. I really do. This is our last. I don't think my DH will go for any more, and I have to be realistic. I have had 3 c-sections. Hoping for a VBAC this time, but so far I'm hearing a whole lot of "no" and that would mean a 4th c-section for me. The risks to me (and baby) get greater the more I have. I know I have to be done after this if it's another c/s. So yeah, thinking about having another boy... It's sad because I have ALWAYS pictured having a daughter in my life. But with that said, I see little newborn boys, and they're just as precious to me (if not more-- maybe a little bias? lol) than little newborn girls. And in all honesty, I know if it's God's will for our life to have 4 boys, it will all be ok! And there's nothing He can't do when asked. So I just pray for gender disappointment to stay far far away from me!

oh I totally agree with this to! I almost would rather have another boy at this point, because this is 99% positive our last baby and if it's a girl, I know I would want her to have a sister to play with you know? I tell DH- If we are having a girl, hopefully we get 2 in one shot because I don't want to be begged (or beg him!! haha) for a sister for her later down the road. lol. 

 Im pretty excited but at least I have a date to obsess ver.. one day at a time.  whatever "baby is"  he/she is.  I personally think its a girl- but who knows.
