Kynlee - I liked one crib at Babies R Us too. We are still looking around though. I think we are going to do white. I was going to start my registry, but it is so overwhelming. Then I get nervous the stuff will be gone once my shower invitations go out. I have a good friend who took me up there the other day and we went through all the asiles. She really helped me out alot telling me about things to register for that I would have never of thought of! So I have a huge list to go off of. When are you thinking of having your shower? I think we are going to have ours the end of Feb. I was thinking of doing a snow shower theme. I just hope there is no real snow storm! I also haven't felt the baby this week as much as last.... I'm glad your OB said that is perfectly normal, makes me feel better!

Always --- Waiting to hear about your u/s!!!

Madame- I am actually going in 3 segments lol to register, there was just to much I felt overwhelmed and I didnt want to rush it... I have people that will go with me each time that already have kids to help me out with what to get...And me and my DH will go Saturday just to pick out the furniture he isnt into picking out towels pajamas bottles etc lol We are having my shower end of Jan so that I can have th room done and I can relax alittle bit before the baby comes plus god forbid I go early, so WE are doing mine the 20th of Jan :)

Always- Yah for team BLUE, so exciting... :) My Niece has 2 boys and will have a 3rd boy friday and they are such momma's boys so I am looking forward to that :)

AFM- Got hit with Snow already, UGH!!!! Not fun... Going to dinner with a friend tonight since she hasnt seen me since i been prego :) Hope everyone is doing well :)

Ladies I need someone to talk to...im sitting here crying...i almost feel like i am disappointed that i am not having a girl. I guess i was hoping for a girl more than i thought( or was just so convinced ). OMG i have worked so hard for this what is wrong with me. I think part of it too is as i tell my family i think they are surprised as well it is a boy and i feel that they are not happy which i am sure i am overreacting!!! im not sure if im just still in shock or what....has anyone else felt this way or am i crazy??

Always-I think before we even started a Journey of IVF we had hopes for one sex or the other, but in reality are dreams became harder then we thought when we had to go thorugh such a rollercoaster to get here...I always dreamed of having a little girl, but when I heard boy I was over joyed at the moment that My dream came true knowing I was having a child... Everyone is different, once you see your son you will be so happy and you will forget you felt this way for even a second :) Trust me I know you will, My niece has 3 sons, her biggest dream was to have a girl when she had her 1st son she was happy cause she figured the next will be a girl, she got pregnant 5 yrs later and couldnt wait for the u/s and cried when they told her Boy and for days she was heartbroken and then it all became real to her she said I am lucky that I can even concieve and when she had her 2nd son she feel so in love... Now today she had her 3rd Son and said she wouldnt have it any other way... Just wanted to share that story with you, It will settle in with you... Our emotions are so all over the place due to everything we went through, when you see your little guy next year you will have tears of Joy and so will your whole family... This is just the beginning for you, Im sure you will have a sibling someday and that could be this little ones sister and she will have the big tough brother to get her through all her Boyfriend issues :) But know the feelings you are having are all normal and real but in time it will all settle in... Sending you a hug :)

Crashing as I tend to do without saying... :D

I chuckled only because Michael has told me on occasion that we better have a boy so we can keep the family name going! His side has majority of girls, 5 out of 6 kids on his side are girls...so he's secretly hoping we have a little boy while I'm hoping to someday adopt Annabelle lol but it's natural to feel this way. I think in the big scheme of things is to get pregnant and have a healthy baby, besides aren't girls known to cause more trouble?

Sunshine-you are too funny :lol: But I have to second that. With a 16 year old stepdaughter, I can totally vouch for that. What can I say but boys, boys, boys. Ah!!!

Always-as soon as I have a moment I will PM you back. Hang in there. Remember, your having a baby. A little piece of you. He is going to be healer and beautiful and that's what's important. Plus, honestly, boys are so much fun :). And the are always mommy's little boys :wink:

Always- I have to add my 2 cents... What you are feeling is totally normal. My situation is a bit different because I had 1 of each, but for some reason I totally expected 2 girls. The first thing they told me at my ultrasound was that I had at least 1 boy. I was surprised. Now that I have my boy, he is so wonderful! He really loves his mommy. When you see your little boy's sweet face for the first time, you will be so in love that you won't care about gender. Just my 2 cents...

Angel I can totally understand........

I was so happy when I found out that we were pregnant naturally after 4 years of blind infertility but being that I was having my 3rd child and had two boys already I too was hoping for a girl. When the tech at 12 weeks said it was a boy I didn't want to believe it. I barely kept it together until we got outside and then started bawling...I felt like it was my last chance for a little girl but as months went on and I spent more and more time with my boys I started question if I even really needed a girl or I just though I did. My boys are so sweet and gentle and both athletic as well as artsy....I am now so excited for this little boy to be here and I know how amazing it will be for my little Paul to have a brother only 16 months younger. I have a 12 year old son and he has been my best little friend...I would not trade any of my boys for a girl.....Also...lol my sister who wanted a boy had a girl and although I love my niece she tends to cry a lot a whine and I realized I am not even used to that anymore. I totally understand your feelings but trust me in time you will feel different.

Always - Congrats on your coming soon baby boy!! I can totally understand why you feel that way. I was happy to have either, yet when I found out I was began to think I wish it was a boy, yet I know if it was a boy, I would have thought the oppisite. I am sure everyone is just so happy and would have been either way! And just wait until your blue bundle arrives, all of you will be over the top!! You will look back and not want it any other way!

We - I am glad all is going well with you and the twins!

Hope everyone has a good weekend!
