Re: Lost our baby at 11 weeks. I am so devastated.

I am getting to this late because I haven't been on here for a week but I just want you to know that I am thinking of you and that I'm so sorry.[W]

Re: Jett Ski... Does it make you laugh?

 I love the name Jett.I think you should use is especially since ski is just a shortened version of your last name.

Re: Even mums with both genders seem to think that girls are better grrrr

 It's true that not everyone feels this way. I see boys being favoured over girls and vice versa but more often than not I see equality. My GD radar just makes me notice when moms favour their daughters KWIM?

Re: Even mums with both genders seem to think that girls are better [:@]

 I see this too in some instances and not others.I have a friend who very noticably favours her daughter over her son. Similar to your story she has all these pics on FB of her girl but not her boy. I actually brought it up in conversation one time that it seems like she is picking favourites. She was not angry with me for pointing it out, in fact, she admitted it. She said something like "My...

Re: The Joys of Raising a Boy or Girl

[quote user="Mrs. Weasley"]Just adding, I have four boys and I have heard from all of them that I have "pretty hair" and they have all at one point or another tried playing with my hair and brushing it.  My older two boys actually like shopping with me at the mall and will even "help"me pick out clothes They are ALL little boys but first of all they are my children. I hate the stereotypes.[/...

Re: sometimes good enough is good enough

 I didn't catch this the first time around. I love it because it's true. GD is rampant because for some of us we have to let go of our control. I need to remember that I can't control everything. Just let go, let go, let go....

Re: I need honest answers about TTC another child..

 Ok, I think that if you are to have a 3rd you should definitely sway and sway hard. If you end up with a boy you will have peace of mind knowing that you tried your best and that the boy was meant to be. If you don't sway, you will be like me. I got pg unexpectedly because I hadn't been ovulating. I took metformin for 2-3 day and ovulated and got pg. I LOVE my son but I will always wonder if...

Re: Do you tell your children to fight back? Poll included

 I try to teach my kids problem solving skills. I always ask them "what is hitting going to solve? Nothing good can come of it and it will make YOU look bad", How else can we handle it?" Same when they are older. Hitting will never solve anything. That being said, I want my kids to be assertive so if I notice a kid that is taking advantage of them I talk to them about how they can be more ass...

Re: Reality Shows

 I hate that I love reality shows. They are so lame and the worst part is that they are scripted [yuck] I used to watch Gene Simmons family Jewels and it is sickening how scripted it is. Also Cake Boss is so scripted it's embarrasing. I like Top Chef, SYTYCD  and Say Yes to the Dress and Little People Big World. Has anyone seen 4 Weddings? What a train wreck, so addictive!...

Re: Would you change a naming pattern?

[quote user="NikiLyn"] With our other boys we just knew.  I feel like we are trying to force something this time.  Any opinons?[/quote] I think you should change the pattern. It should never feel forced. I doubt he will feel left out. As long as there was thought put into his name. Kids always want to know why they were named a certain name and to hear "because it was the right am...

Question about hormones

 Hormones are listed as one of the factors in gender determination. I have noticed that women who have been diagnosed with poly-cyctic ovaries or with fibroids are pronned to having boys. Is this really the case? If so, is it an increase in testosterone that leads to this?

Re: I thought DH got it...

 [Y] This is what is important. He is willing to to support you and keep trying. I don't have that my DH is dead set against ttc again. We are done.I know it is hard to hear what he is saying though. Sorry you are going through this.

Re: Does your DH have the same gender desire as you?

 Oh jennasue we have so much in common! My dh said that he doesn't want a daughter either. He said he is happy with all boys and he said he can't stand the thought of a little girl taking all the attention away from his boys. He said that especially since we have 3 boys, people are going to view a little girl as being the treasure this family has been missing and he just wants to avoid that a...

Re: Haven't been in this forum for a long time....

 Hey there,I've been there so I know exactly what you are going through. I know how it feels to get pg unexpectedly and lose your chance to sway. I remember thinking that my 3rd could be a girl anyway, after all, how many women out there got a daughter and never swayed? I surely must be one of those women. I was not as brave as you. I wanted to selfishly live in that fantasy world that the ba...
