May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others

And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young" --Bob Dylan

hello, I was on here about 2 years ago desperatly trying to pretend that all was going to be ok, i had just had my fourth son.
I was just reading your iceberg message and its so true, it brings tears to my eyes. I am a wonderful person, i love my boys with everything i have, but this feeling i have inside, i don't think will ever go away. Thankyou for posting this. I don't feel so alone.
Hope all goes well with your new baby.

 Absolutely agreed. Anonymous written outbursts of emotions could wrongly be interpreted, and we have to remember not to judge people with our own measures.

d4d xx Desperate for a Daughter!!  my boys 2003, 2007. May'10 4w4dys  July '10 5wks As a parent, my boys are my world and TTC pink is not a reflection on them or the love I have for them, I simply ache for a daughter to complete our family!! Onto Cycle 10 ... 15th August 10 - 2nd cycle after 2nd m/c. Can't believe where this journey has taken me. Never imagined I'd not be pg by now and have 2 mc's too. I will sway this month because I cannot let go of the dream just yet. However, I really want to be holding my baby in my arms next summer and time is running out. Come on sticky bean, this is our month. Let's hope it's a pink one!!  Cycle 8 BFP @ 14dpo, EDD 20th March 2011. Ended in m/c at 5 weeks. Our little poppyseed.
Cycle 6 BFP @ 14dpo, EDD 21st January 2011. Ended in m/c at 4wks4dys. Our little crumb.
Our little angel babies, gone forever but loved and always part of our family.
Cycle 8 ... to sway or not to sway .... ??? Maybe a TTC break is needed?! Ended up doing a partial sway, it was all I could manage in the end! Ended in mc
Cycle 6!?! How can that be? I fell so easily with both ds's. I didn't expect to fall straight away, but to be on my 6th cycle is totally unexpected. I think this will be our last month of swaying as I really want to be pregnant now and am worried we somehow aren't going to manage that. 16/04/10 Ended in mc

That was really nice.
I know I just joined here so nobody really knows much about me.. but I wanted to add that I never really realized how offended people got by someone who wanted a specific gender for their own child. I did feel guilty about being as upset as I was finding out my 1st wasn't a boy - but I didn't hide that from people... I just told them the truth when they asked. I realized when I was part of a parenting forum for my 2nd daughter and one of the moms made a post about how "aweful" and "rotten" it was to be disapointed about gender, etc. She mentioned that people had formulated methods to conceive one gender or the other and that there were entire sites devoted to a desired gender with forums full of women who were experiencing GD. So.. I took that pretty badly and I defended the concept of GD with my own experience.. on that parenting board and before I waited to read their replies I dashed off to find these "methods" so I could conceive the gender that *I* wanted, haha. Ultimately I realized that I didn't exactly "fit in" with them moms and their ideals/morals anyway... so here I am :)

Me too, the UK parenting site I was a part of with ds#2 are full of "any baby is a blessing - end off" brigade. True, they are, but that doesn't stop mothers yearning for a particular gender. And doesn't make us bad mothers either. GL with your pg xx
