Re: I Think It Might Be Happening Again.....

It's always easier to face what we know than what we don't know.Get the pregnancy test.  Then your conversation will be about what to do, not what might be happening... [hearts]Good luck!

Re: Need advice about gift...(today!)

I think gift cards just for the two that spend the most time with your children is perfectly appropriate.  It's not like you're totally stiffing the third.And if you already got the third gift card... umm, just put it in your purse and use it next time you need something there!

Re: What it took to get over my GD

 I am so sorry to hear about all you are going through.  So much positive energy to you and your family.  [hearts]

Re: Hopeless

I am so sorry.  [:(]I am feeling the same way, although I only have two children.  It sucks.  I have such irrational anger toward women with little girls in lines at grocery stores, the library, the mall... it's ridiculous.Sigh.

Re: Resentment for others, even though you got your DG?

Hmmm... I can't say I've seen much crazy-talk from Rebel, and I think those of us that have been around for awhile know that she loves her daughter.  Just as I cannot grasp that someone would actually prefer to be pregnant with a boy, she feels the same about being pregnant with a girl.  Shrug.  That's GD.  It's a nasty thing -- we know it's not logical, and yet it's like our b...

Re: Where is the mod?? Lissa or Maureen?

Maureen has been MIA for awhile -- that's why IG is having "issues" at the moment.

Re: Where is the mod?? Lissa or Maureen?

I am sorry, I cannot give you access to the EGD forum -- only a supermod can do that if you don't have gold (to PM you the secret password), and I am not... I can only relay requests.However, you can certainly post in the regular GD forum (here) and just label your post "Sensitive/EGD content" or something along those lines.

Re: Did you ever wish you'd named your child/ren something else? **POLL**

I am not crazy about my second's name -- Peter (Pete). I had a terrible birth, the baby was in the NICU and I couldn't get up to see him... I wanted to have some sort of connection with him because I wasn't feeling anything, so when my husband came back with a photo, we just picked a name. I was deciding between that, Judah (Jude), or Samson (Sam)... I often feel one of the others would have been ...

Re: EGD: PLEASE STOP HERE IF YOUR DISAPPOINTMENT IS EXTREME

Note:  We are waiting to grant access to new users until they have at least 30 posts.  Due to recent negative elements, we want to ensure the privacy and safety of the EGD board.  We hope the 30 posts will help us to get to know you and sniff out trolls and journalists...Thanks for your understanding!

Re: Need: Chocolate Cake Recipe

Awesome!  This is how poor we were:  we just didn't have cake (except Angelfood on birthdays).  I made my first box cake in college.  [:$]

Re: Need: Chocolate Cake Recipe

Hold up!  You can make a cake... not from a box?  [:^)][:P]

Re: stuck with two names to choose from and a few q's!

I really, really like both!  Finn (Finnegan) was one of our top-3 for my first son, and Jude (Judah) was one of out top-3 for my second son!I think I like Jude better, though, as Finn is starting to get more popular.  I don't think either name is girly, and I think whichever you pick will grow on your mom -- after all, it's who he'll be!

How did you feel the first time you held your GD baby?

How did it feel the first time you held your baby that wasn't your desired gender?  Many fall in love instantly or feel guilt for their GD... others take more time to bond and still feel disconnected or emotional.How did you feel?

How did you feel the first time you heard the gender?

How did you feel the first time you heard "it's a boy" or "it's a girl" with your undesired gender?  Was it on the ultrasound table, or did you have them write it down, or did you wait to find out at delivery?  What did you do?  What did you think?

Gender Disappointment & Mental Health: Seeking Professional Help

No one here thinks you're crazy.  We believe you are dealing with Gender Disappointment (GD).  Loosely defined, GD is feeling disappointed or saddened in the sex of your baby.  It can range from a mild desire to raise a child of the other sex to an extreme depression in the sex of the baby you have.Someone on In-Gender may suggest that you seek professional help or counselin...

Re: Feeling low

It is so painful to see other people get what you want, especially when it was so easy for them... and so impossible for you.I know it sounds like a stupid platitude, but your boys might surprise you with the things that you get to do... and there are lots of great things that we completely forget about when we dwell on all of the sweet ushering into womanhood that we might miss out on...We still ...
