*March & April 2021*

I knew like in my mind this would be a girl, but based on symptoms I thought boy bc it’s been completely the opposite to dd1. Nope another girl!
 
@SCgirl congrats it's a girl!

I have everyone telling me they think I'm having a girl, it's very hard to think otherwise when even the kids are saying baby sister! I got my date for anatomy scan so I'll find out November 20th, seems like ages away!
 
I am convinced this one is a girl- haven’t been wrong yet but there’s a first time for everything haha!
 
I read an interesting article about how there tend to be more girl births in periods of stress (great depression, Spanish flu, etc)

A global pandemic would certainly qualify...
 
Lol, I must be the only one not stressed then! :) So far I'm having the one lonely boy on this thread!!

Yeah male fetuses are more sensitive than female. That’s why like when the mom has a poor diet or very stressful job they tend to have more girls and such. Its not 100% or even close, but it’s big aspect of swaying. I swayed with DD1, but just couldn’t with this one. Got my 2nd girl anyway :)
 
That's really interesting! I don't think I've really been stressed at all this whole year but I guess we'll see!
 
Like I said it’s not foolproof. Such things like stress, diet, exercise slightly raise odds of having one or the other, but the other gender is still absolutely possible.
 
Well, after over 8 straight weeks of feeling freaking awful and hardly being able to function (spending the majority miserable in bed)... I woke up today feeling pretty normal. And today I didn’t really feel pregnant at all. It’s soooo weird. I almost feel smaller too. I’m still exhausted, but I’ve been in bed most of the last 2 months... I’ve had a few very brief breaks (single digits over many weeks) where I almost felt ok for a few hours but it always came back with a vengeance- nothing close to an entire day!! (Currently 14.5 weeks, so about time.) our last scan was less than a week ago and all was well- no concerning symptoms currently...

did your morning sickness suddenly disappear or was it gradual? (I thought I was sick in other pregnancies, but it was never anything close to this, so I can’t really compare!)
 
@SCgirl i am 10+5 and woke up 3 days ago with zero nausea and it hasn’t come back whatsoever since. If I hadn’t had the scan on Friday I’d be freaking out. I look smaller too. Feels like I suddenly don’t need maternity clothes anymore. So yes my symptoms disappeared overnight. So glad for the scan. Of course I’m still nervous and wish I could find my dang Doppler but I have to assume all is well.
