Sneak peek disapointment

I done a sneak peek lancet test and got a boy result. I didn’t realise how upset I would be.

For context I’ve already got an amazing little boy and always wanted one of each and this is our last baby.

I can’t shake the sadness - I really hope it passes I feel guilty for feeling like this. 😣

Aww I totally understand. I went through gender disappointment. Luckily it only lasted a few days however I still hope next time it is a girl. So I can also have one of each. Just know that you’re gonna love this baby boy the same way you’d love it if it were a girl. And who knows you may only need a day or two to feel better with the results!

Omg this is exactly how I’m feeling I just got my sneakpeek results in today and I already have 2 girls this is my third baby which I planned to make my last so my heart shattered seeing it was another girl I’m gonna just be a little delusional and wait for my NIPT to confirm that cause I’m really sad

it’s a strange feeling isn’t it! I’m trying to hold out hope that it’s wrong 🥺

Yess ! Kind of holding that little hope in my heart lol 🥺🥺🩵

how far gone were you when you done the test? I’ve read a lot of ones where they’ve given girl results when tested too early and turned out to be a boy xx

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

I am so done with pregnancy !

Everything i do hurt . I sit down / i stand up / i walk / i lie down. I am in pain ! I am tired ! His mouvement hurt down there like electricity chock ! My back is on fire ! If i walk more then 5 minutes i feel like i am going to die ( low ferritine) the acid reflux is crazy . I mean i can’t and don’t wanna do this no more . Only 31 weeks !

Almost 37 weeks + told to do another growth scan

I just had my second to last doctor’s appointment this morning, and my OB told me she wants me to do another growth scan because my belly is measuring small. She says it’s probably just because I’m a smaller woman, but they like to be safe. It’s hard to hear though, since I just did one a couple months ago.

I did this with my firstborn around this time of pregnancy, so I do think I just carry smaller (even though I don’t feel like I look “small” at all). My first baby was 6lbs 15oz when she was born at 41 weeks + 2 days. I’m having this baby at 39 weeks on April 7. I hope she’s still at least 6lbs.

Anyone have any stories similar to this?
