Also, we are team (for now)

For those of you who are not my FB friends: 

Team pink/pink!

But Baby B looks a little iffy to me. 

FI is disappointed to say the least.  I told in a few years, we can try again for a boy and I'll eat the "boy" foods and we'll try that Shettles method stuff.

  • What is this "Shettles" method you speak of?
  • Your H is allowed to be a little disappointed at this point, but tell him to suck it up and get over it fast.  I can't tell you how much it sucks to have a dad who, to this day, still whines about never having had a son.  I personally am eternally grateful that he never had a son because it would either mean: a) I would never have been born; or b) I would be a boy (and I like being a girl).

    Congrats!  I think having two little girls would be so much fun!  Obviously, any combination of healthy babies would be great, but I am biased and think sisters are fun.

    n/m - google is my friend.  I had never heard of this before.  I knew there were "ways" so to speak but I didn't know a Dr. had written a book or it had a fancy name, lol.

    Congrats on team pink!

    Yeah, I am not sure on the accuracy of it, but if I o'ed when I suspect I did (which I will never know for sure, since we were on BCP), then Shettles was correct for us.

    My sister and I had a rocky relationship for a while, but it's evened out now, so I am glad that they will have each other.  I wanted a boy and girl, too, but I am more than happy with healthy babies.  Baby A has a calcium deposit on her heart, but the Peri said it was nothing to be concerned with since it appear She/I have no other markers for Down Syndrome.

    P.S. I like that you are a girl, too :)

    I hope the heart issue corrects itself and you end up with two very healthy babies (whatever they turn out to be!).  Trust me, my sisters can be pitas, but I'm very happy to have them.  Just having a sibling so close together in age will probably be both a curse and a blessing!  It'll be an adventure for all of you!  Best of luck!

  • Yay!  That is so exciting!  Congratulations!
  • Congrats! I think 2 little girls would be so fun!

    Did you say once before that the doctor suspected they were identical? Or am I making that up?

    Thanks!

    He says that most likely they are fraternal (because the placenta says so, and they are two sacs) but that they could be identical because if the egg split at a certain time, it could appear like they are fraternal.  So, I guess I will have to wait until they make their debut!  Otherwise, I'd could get some sort of testing done (I assume an amino?).

  • That's wonderful! Congratulations! I'm sure your FI will have a change of heart as soon as he sees his little girls.

    My mom and I both think that maybe there is a pen1s there  for baby b (Idk if TN will censor that.)  I can try to scan the money shot for both of them.  I kind of felt weird about doing that, but I can start another post and DD it later.  

  • Congrats! I have to say though that I'd be really p!ssed off at my H if he was "disappointed" in the gender of the baby. I just don't get that at all. I'd do anything for a baby, any baby, so the gender is really the least of my concerns. Maybe that's just me.

  • Congratulations...two girls, how exciting!! 
  • If you aren't comfortable scanning, that is not a problem. I love looking at everyone's U/S (even before I was KU).
  • congrats! two girls will be fun
  • Yay for girls!  My H really, really wanted a boy but is soooo in love with Miss Macy.  He thinks she is the greatest thing ever and your H will think the same of your babies too!  Although, he is still pulling for a boy on our next kid.  Haha.  It makes me laugh thinking that he might strike out and end up with another girl.  I am hoping that's the case because then, maybe I could talk him into kiddo #3!
