That doesn't mean it's set in stone even if that were the case!! (seriously, I would have sworn that Pink would have a son - but she didn't!!)
That almost makes me wonder if that's why soooo many people thought I was having a boy... but see Lissa, I had a girl!

I think you're right. I probably do look like I am "set up" for boys. I unfollowed the post, but it didn't work and THREE more people commented for sure they know it's a boy. I freaking turned off commenting because it's pissing me off. I'm thinking about going on there and saying it's a girl even if it's not just to rile them up! LOL!
My mom keeps telling me that it's a girl and when I was pregnant with my son she kept telling me it was a boy. My mom is pretty good at these things because her intuition is pretty powerful.
I don't even know what to think anymore. I still think it's a boy, but mostly because I feel that will help my emotional state to think and believe that. I don't want to go having hope that it's a girl because I will be crushed.
That 9 week blood test is looking better and better every day. I just want to know and start to work through my feelings way before I have the anatomy scan. I don't want to cry or look disappointed in front of the ultrasound tech...

Do the blood test. I recommend it for anyone who can afford it for that very reason. I hate it that two of my worst memories are my ultrasounds with my 3rd and 4th sons.
The weird thing about all this is even when you don't have that strong a gender preference, it messes with your mind. I would have never thought I was the type of person who would cry in a doctor's bathroom during an ultrasound for a pregnancy that I had no gender preference whatsoever when I conceived it. But there I was.

I have decided that I actually AM doing the blood test! I just need to know and I'd rather find out in private!
I had a dream last night about my baby for the first time! It was super exciting! I couldn't tell if the baby was a boy or girl for sure...but it seemed like it was a boy. And when I was pregnant with my son, I dreamed he was a girl! Haha. Funny, right?
As each day goes by, I am getting more and more at ease with this baby being a boy (if this baby is a boy). I love this child so much already. It's weird how we can be that way. And I was thinking about how awesome it's going to be to not have to buy the baby any clothes! Haha. My first son has so many that can just be handed down. Think of the money we'll save! LOL!

They were ALL right. About a dozen total psychics and psychics in training were all SO sure that I was having a boy. They were all right.

I was doing OK until yesterday.
Yesterday was a particularly bad day for me. Hopefully today is better.

It's a complicated thing to say congratulations on a board like this, because I know you're feeling more than one way about everything.
But I do want to acknowledge your good fortune here. It sounds like everything is solid health-wise and you're now closer to getting the second baby you and your husband have been longing for. Your son will have a brother.
I also know though, just how hard and painful GD can be, especially if a person is still fresh in any feelings of disappointment. You sound like you're doing relatively well, at least compared to many of us on the site, but just in case you need a boost on those harder days I wonder if you might find some meaning in this podcast episode of "On Being": with family therapist Pauline Boss I found it useful because there's a part were they discuss “ambiguous loss" and "complicated grief" which I relate to through some of my own GD feelings and fears.

I'm sorry you had a rough time. I think it's normal to have complicated emotions about it.

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
