Lisvna I'm very happy to hear your news! I am going to Genesis in the next couple of months. Just have to sort passports and get blood test done!! Have you written a post anywhere about where you stayed and your experience? I am keen to hear about it all.

Hello everyone. I've been a member of this forum for years and recently joined the gender dreaming forum too because I had trouble logging in to this one. Now I'm confused as to which one to use? Do a lot of you use both? I'm following lots of different conversations and it's blowing my little mind!

Thank you. I actually have some meds sitting in my cupboard from a while ago that I never took because I was breastfeeding. When I stopped BF my periods returned and I started to feel better. I think my hormones settled down a bit. Right now I am in the last week of my monthly cycle so I bet my hormones are playing up again! Bloody things! I have suffered at the hands of my stupid hormones befor...

thank you girls for your replies. It's kind of now or never as I'll be 39 in September. The crazy thing is, I had awful GD with DS2 and DS3 then recovered completely. I was soooo proud and happy and confident. I went everywhere with little DS4 in the sling and showed him off. I was sociable. I was involved in activities at school. I was following my own interests too, horse riding and singing. I k...

Hi ladies. I was hoping for some words of wisdom. I haven't been on here for a long time but I just stopped by and read a few posts. GD is a painful thing and I find reading forum posts just makes me worse, but I could really do with some words from people in the same boat right now
I have five sons and my youngest is 10 months old. I had no GD with my fourth at all. We are like little soul mat...

Hello ladies. I've been reading this thread with interest because if we can raise the money we would like togo to Cyprus to get our little girl soon. We have five lovely boys and I am 38 years old. I too want to feel 'complete' and I want to do this soon!! I'm interested to know how you all get on. I hadn't heard of the north cyprus clinic until reading this thread, so thank you.

thank you mister_masters_missus. I've had the tv question too!!! Why do people feel the need to ask questions about our family lives? I've done it myself "hello, nice to meet you, how many children/what have you got?" It's OK until they feel the need to pass comment! I don't want to tell people now. It annoys me because I'm proud of my children and want to tell the wo...

As much as I desperately want a little girl, reading your posts makes
me appreciate the boys I have. Why can't we all just get a selection?
You'd think when we are able to have healthy babies quite easily God
would say OK here's your boy/girl. So many children are born and
neglected yet we are all loving Mums who cherish all our children (even
when they aren't the gender we ...

Hello everyone. I haven't been on here for a while because I was getting so depressed about things I felt I needed to focus on something else.I'm 33 weeks now (with fifth boy) and I can't seem to go a day without at least one person asking what I'm having. I dread the question because if I tell them it's often followed with "ha ha, trying for a football team are you?" (sigh). No actual...

Hello. I am reading all of your posts with interest because we are hoping to go to Cyprus later on this year. We are expecting our fifth boy at the end of June and hoping to book straight in for treatment within 6 months. I know that sounds a bit hectic but I turn 38 in September so don't want to hang about! good luck to all you girls. I wish you all every success and hope I'll be righ...

It's very refreshing to hear your story because it's so different to a lot of us on this forum. I would say the majority want to have a baby of the opposite gender to their others but to hear you say you were sad about not having another little boy to be a buddy to your youngest just goes to show how no one should assume to know what anyone else is thinking! Everybody assumes I keep having b...

Hi Woods. I wanted to reply because I am expecting my fifth boy and I feel the same as you. I'm 29 weeks and very obviously pregnant and it really is ALL PEOPLE WANT TO TALK ABOUT! I honestly feel like not going out in public at all. I've found this time that I'm not even trying to hide my feelings any more. If I get any questions about how I feel 'm just saying "yes I'm sad abou...

I'm expecting my fifth boy too and I could have written your post! :-( I just wanted to tell you you are far from alone. I'm going to be 38 this year but I think we're going to try and remortgage the house or something to get PGD done. I can't face going through the menopause without trying everything to get my daughter. As much as I love my boys all this seems a bit pointless if I giv...

I have 4 with very different characters. The oldest can be very exciteable, but is also extremely sensitive and caring. The second is calmer, much more careful, hates getting dirty and desperately wants a sister. The third is a natural born comic, very gregarious and has a ton of friends. The fourth is the cuddliest child you could ever wish to have. Yes they all fight at times, but no more ...

Twizzler, I actually woke up feeling Ok this morning. After about 3 months of waking up feeling numb it was a refreshing change! I realised something was improving yesterday when I was out shopping and a little toddler girl walked past me and I didn't feel a pang of envy. I might still end up taking another dip but today I'm not too bad. I had come to accept having only sons before thi...

My son wans to see that film, He's very into "gentler" stuff! And UGHH! Mothercare! I don't know if it's better or worse than it was. In the store near me it used to be all the boys stuff on one side and all the girls on the other and I felt like there might as well have been a coupld of burly bouncers with a barrier standing in front of it to keep riff-raff like me out! Now...

when2stop I think about later life too. I worry that all my sons' partners will dislike me and want to be with their own family. But then my own situation is not like that. My MIL drives me nuts but she only lives round the corner and sees our children lots, whereas my mum lives overseas and my children barely recognise her. I think the only thing to do is to make sure we have lots of ...

vestavesta, the first time you go out I would strongly advise looking at the floor! [HL] I seem to have been bombarded with newborn girls everytime I ventured out since my scan. I would also avoid mothercare and all other baby shops for a while. They are teeming with little girls and pretty clothes (it seems!). I have a free afternoon today because my boys are going to holid...

OMG thanks girls. I'm still none the wiser! There are pluses and minuses to both options. A good friend of mine told me to tell people it's a boy and when they say "oh dear..." I should say "oh please don't say that, I'm excited about my baby" and then they'll feel awful for being so negative. (I think a couple of you said words to that effect). My husband said he'll find it very diffi...

Thank you girls. It seems like people feel like they can say whatever the hell they want about your child while it still in your belly. Like it doesn't exist. I'm leaning towards not telling people before the birth and letting them find out the old fashioned way. I too think I could cope better with the "bet you hope it's a girl" comments rather than "oh dear, another boy" ones!

Hi ladies. You all come up with great support and advice and I wanted to ask what you think I should do?I need to announce this pregnancy to family and close friends because quite frankly it's getting bloody obvious! But, do I tell people we know it's a boy and suffer the sympathetic looks until the end of June? Or do I pretend I don't know? I'm thinking that if I pretend I don't know people...

Hello vestavesta. I'm sorry your scan didn't turn out the way you'd
hoped. I've just been through the exact same thing, again! Like you I
was excited about planning my birth. I wanted another homebirth. I've
had two waterbirths and two homebirths before and was hoping this one
would be the same. But since I found out it's yet another boy I started
to not care how ...
