Nub theory results have me in tears

[Adia]

Hang in there amo....I feel your pain so acutely!

SIL#1 had BBGG, because that is what she ordered, of course!!! Then SIL#2 had GGBB, again, because that is what she ordered so naturally it happens.

DH has 6 siblings, we are the only ones who have yet to produce a boy and it is a HUGE deal in his family, sad to say but I am the shame of the family when it comes to producing grandchildren. (FYI, they can kiss my a$$ for all I care), but it still sucks to have that fact mentioned and pointed out. DH has told them to shut up about it, but I know how they feel, they told me for 10 years before DH told them to shove it!

I am so dreading finding out the gender and the backlash from them. If its a boy I will have FINALLY gotten with the program! If its a girl, we will be written off as useless....so much to look forward to.....

Thanks Adia. It sucks when we get pressure from family to produce a certain sex, like there's anything we can do about it and then seeing/hearing the disappointment.
I hope you get your boy. :-) xx

God this is hard! I've not told many people about my scan yet but of the few people I have told I've got some saying "it could still be a girl!" or "oh, if they couldn't give you a definite answer it's probably a girl". It's giving what I think is false hope before my private scan on Thursday and I'll crash straight back down after. I'm even desperately thinking back on my scan the other day when I spent the majority of the time staring at the crotch area every time she went in that vicinity and thinking I didn't see anything willy or ball like so it could still be....
Oh it's torture. It's bound to be a boy.

Lots of distractions between now and then....hang in there.

3 years ago I posted my 12 week nub picture on a different site and got ALL girl guesses to then find out I was having a boy and I'm not gonna lie i was shocked and devastated! Fast forward 3 years and my little man is my angel who I wouldn't change for the world. Saying that tho when I do eventually go on to have baby no 3 and the 12 week scan comes around I will not be guessing the nub and I will not be posting the scan picture either! Incase anyone's curious I'll try and post the 12 week scan picture of my ds2!

Thankyou Millie. That certainly was a girlie looking nub, I can imagine how you must have felt finding out it was a boy. Great to hear how happy little man has made you now though. I hope you get your girl one day. xxx

Well it's definitely 100% another boy. I was fully expecting it but it doesn't make it any easier. I think the hardest part is not being able to talk about it with anyone as every time I try I get the usual "be happy it's healthy" "you get what you get" and made to feel like my feelings are invalid or wrong. People just don't understand which makes this a very lonely and miserable experience. I'm dreading telling people.

Well congratulations on your son. You always have us to vent too
