Not yet, u/s early August. Wouldn't guess at 12 wks. Darnit!
Lol! I was trying to work it out from my 12 week u/s, even tho I told them not to tell me. And I never did find out, with either. Not sure if I would with the next pregnancy....
In other news, mima asked me today if I could have a third baby. I asked did she want me to and she was adamant that she did! "Yes please mum!". "I want three babies!!" So I have told her we are thinking about it and will let her know if we get to have another baby. :). Just a bit cute.
Just thought I'd come on to let you all know we had a baby girl :) so for us the trying two or three days before ovulation worked!
Fantastic news!! Congratulations :D
That's awesome news!!
Afm, I am 9dpo atm. Testing in the morning!! I tested today and there was maybe a very faint pink line. But only if you held it in the right light and looked at it with a squint! Lol!! Dh said it was negative, lol!! Never mind! I am on holidays and one more day to drink cider in the uk excuse for summer is a bonus ;)
Anyone around in here at the moment? We are attempting to sway for a girl.
Bella and I are both pg atm. I don't think Bella knows whether their swaying efforts were successful yet.
We swayed when TTC #2 (unsuccessfully) and #3 was another whoopsie, so no swaying involved. We are going to have our third girl in January. We have no plans for #4, but no plans to permanently end our baby days, so I might be thinking about it in another few years. If three children don't completely wear me out!
What about you, Lady-bug?
Hi Jennifer, we have two boys and are going to be soon trying for our 3rd bubba (again, miscarriage about a month ago) so we are taking some supplements and will just use the timing method.
I can't believe how much info is out there it's all a bit much really! But really we want 3 babies and I don't mind who we get but I'll try a little for a pink one
Ladybug I found a forum dedicated to gender swaying called "gender dreaming". Those girls have it down to a science!! I had heaps of little things I could try to add to my sway. No idea if it was successful, but I am so tempted to find out. I have an nt scan next week. I might just ask for a clear nub shot if possible and we can try to guess for ourselves. I have never found out before. But hubby and I are struggling to contain the desire to know this time.
Thanks Bella, I will have a look. Oh there is no way I'm waiting to find out! I can't wait to find out and I'm not even pregnant yet!!
Lol! We just never have before is all. We have always enjoyed the surprise, so if we do decide to find out it will be a unique experience for us :).
Looks like I'm back to joining this thread... although more on a "pre" ttc.... so nervous
Danielle, go have a look at gender dreaming if you are pre ttc. They have absolutely reams of info over there. What gender are you ttc?
Ladybug, do you know what your baby's gender is? What were you trying for again?
We were successful in getting a little blue bundle, tho I must say, that until he is born and I can see him in the flesh, I will wonder....
Looks like it worked for us, we have been told we are having a pink one!! And I've had two scans just to be sure :lol:
I got the info off Gender dreaming, but too be honest it was very overwhelming so I don't think we followed it as much as some others do. We we taking lots of cranberry tabs, calcium and magnesium. But we were doing all of this, fell pregnant and lost that bubba, so when we were ttc this one we weren't taking any of it. I just wanted to be pregnant. So maybe it was timing of dtd or maybe there was still some of the vitamins in our systems.
Good luck Danielle!!
We are going to be trying for a little girl, and yes I have looked at gender dream just so much information and so hard to know what to follow and what not too... I have to correct my hormones first :/ which is just one more thing to add to the pile.
It's hard to know what information I am to follow, what to get DH to follow and what to ignore... I know timing is important but I'm a firm believer that the environment also plays a big part... looked briefly at the blue package requirements and that is my life to a T... and I have three boys... so it's a complete lifestyle change while we try... so much information and only so much will fit in and around everything else that my poor mind has to deal with...
I swayed for a girl with #3. I joined Gender Dreaming and even paid for a "personalised sway". I was very disappointed! Her advice was often contradictory and the eating plan (LE - low everything) was unhealthy and full of American crap foods not available here. When I pointed this out she got very defensive but gave me no more ideas of how to follow her "plan" . It also wasn't very personalised to me (I'm coeliac). So I ignored all the diet stuff and stuck to timing (basically Shettle's) - and I got my girl :D !!!
Oh nice one amaunet! Not that you felt screwed around, but that you got the desired gender!
Same for you ladybug!
I did too, so excited to be expecting a boy! Have if mentioned that before? Lol!
And good luck with your sway Danielle! I hope that you get your hormones all settled down and sorted out.
That really sucks that it really isn't that personalised, I can't eat eggs or fish and fussy in general... I'm guessing for me it will all be directed in that direction LOL
Haven't had a chance to think about anything over the last few days with everything going on and didn't even get to ring the doctor to find out what hormones are screwed and ask for new bloods...
