I am the same as you just opposite gender... We to are expecting a baby when we were all done. I, too believed that if god had given us a surprise then it would be a ds... But no.... I could have written your post word for word. Hugs x

Hi there... My ds has totally had gd.. He is now nearly 8 and is the oldest of four, the other Three are girls. He cried when the last one was born and my dh told him it was a girl, we were all sure it was going to be a boy. His reaction is probably responsible for a huge part oft
Own gd. He struggles with the comments he gets and I hate that. He is usually fine when we are together as a familymb...

yep i went through that with my cousin a couple of months back when she had her 3rd baby and got the sex she wanted. Didnt even look at the emailed pictures....you are so right, GD changes your character.

i just wanted to say i know exactly how you feel. I am nearly term now and have known the sex since 20 weeks and it has been a roller-coaster ride. Just today something triggered it off again when i thought i was doing better....*sigh* im hoping it gets less painful over time
hugs to you

i know exactly how you feel. its hard. i thought i was getting through it and then just yesterday mu dh told me about a comment somebody made and now im back being sad again......the baby is not even here yet! I have BGGG and we were blown away to find out we were expecting again and i felt sure that this time my ds would get his much wanted brother but it appears that is not to be. The tech said ...

I honestly think you shouldn't listen to anyone else's comments about family size.. It's your decision and no one else's. However I would say that i am in your situation except the other way round.. We have one boy and I am pg with my 4th girl. it has been so very hard coming to terms with it that I just wouldn't risk it again. I was so desperate for my ds to have a brother but realistically now t...

When my dh told my mil that we were expecting number four... She called us irresponsible for bringing another child into this type of world! My dh was mad, as was I
..but when it comes down to it, it is their loss... You are hardly likely to pursue a close relationship with someone who is so negative so they ultimately miss out on their grandkids... That's what has happened with us anyhow...

Just wanted to say that i know exactly how you feel. I had my third girl about 18 months ago and was devastated not to give my son the brother he had always wanted. I guess I just assumed I would have four kids and get two of each!! My son is the oldest so I know feels it big time that he is the only one. I try really hard to not let the girls be too girly and exclude him but gotta say it's hard s...

I am in your exact same position... I have one less child but am currently pg with what we are told is another girl... I already have three. I'm gutted for my son... So wanted a brother for him and I'm done having girls. ;)
Your scan does look girlie... Although I think it's a bit of a weird angle the baby is in... But I'm no expert.
I don't have any words of wisdom just know that you are n...

I think most people here would relate to what you are feeling. It does really suck and sometimes the sadness seems overwhelming.. But you sound like you rationally know that you will be okay... It's okay to grieve... I found a year hard with my gd baby and it did pass...

Personally I would find out.. I am pg with my fifth unexpectedly and I have a boy and three girls and I knew I couldn't endure the 'maybe your boy will finally get his brother, or poor boy surrounded by all those girls' type comments. I always thought fore warned is fore armed and last time I didn't find out and the gd nearly sent me loopy... I dunno I felt like a fraud all those months I'd be ima...

yeah remember that those 'swaying' theories are not scientific and you will find plenty of people of here who would testify to that. Personally we probably, unknowingly did loads of pro-boy swaying with my last three babies ......all girls! so good luck and hope you get your girl [:)]

[quote user="Zora Astor"]Gender is not genetic. I remember reading a couple of articles on this website describing stidues performed on this subject and every time the conclusion was that gender does not run in the family, it's basically a 50/50 chance every time and when someone has 2-3 of the same gender in a row - this is just a coincidence. If you flip a coin 100 times, you might get 4 ta...

oh my goodness..that is rubbish. its so annoying when you get those kind of comments from family isnt it? My MIL said when she found out that we were expecting our fourth baby....'well thats just irresponsible...'

I had a midwife say to me with my last baby... 'now 2 boys and 2 girls is what I think of as the perfect family...' in fairness I suppose I didn't know at the time that my fourth was going to be my
third girl but still even at the time I thought it a bit of a lousy thing to say...

i had lots of dreams with my last one of the baby being a boy...i even had friends having dreams of me having a boy. Of course they were all wrong and it turned out to be a girl....so i wouldn't put too much into it if i were you. I really believed it too so it was shocking when she was born really. I think it is your subconscious....
Hope you get your GD

i read a response just a minute ago from a lady who was struggling with the idea of having four of the same sex and what everyone would say in response ..the old chestnut ' aww so you didnt get your girl/boy then?' ...I wanted to say that not all people think like that..i dont..i think four of the same sex is awesome...boy or girl. I know two families very well who have 4 girls/ 4 boys kids, they ...

i really feel for you. Im in a similar position now and i find it so hard to think straight sometimes. Ive also done the "why do they get what they want?" questions in my head over and over again......I actually work in NICU so i have seen tiny babies fighting for life and their parents watching them and it makes me feel like the most ungrateful person alive. But the fact is you have your feelings...

wow poor you [:S] being fair to the doc's its actually pretty hard to tell at such a late gestation 'cos the baby is so big and girlie bits tend to look quite swollen. Can't imagine what a turmoil this is putting you in tho. Hope they are right and you get to see pink when you deliver [:-)]

i am in a similar position right now....and it really sucks and is harder some days than others to not kick myself all the time. I think the advice about grieving is probably very wize. Dont know what else to say really ...other than i understand what you are going through... [:(]
