    Just for background info........we currently have 7 sons.

    At the beginning of this pregnancy, the doctor was leaning toward this pregnancy being twins also (measuring large for 2 months in a row)

    had an ultrasound at almost 15 weeks (only one baby) and changed my due date from May 1 to April 23

    after bloodwork (at 16 weeks) they thought that they baby could have downs syndrome.....I was sent to a large hospital in Chicago for a
    level 2 ultrasound at almost 18 weeks.........shows that the baby is perfectly normal (whew)

    and that it is another BOY!!!!!!!!!!


    So I now have 8 sons..........we are so happy...........running out of boy names...........but VERY HAPPY

    Wow!! I guess you know for sure what your dh is good at!!! Making those boys!! Have you ever seen the movie 7 Brides for 7 Brothers?...it's an oldie, but cute. The brothers were all named bible names alphabetically... I think A was Abraham...B, Benjamin...etc.... Well, one consolation is that paying for the dinner reception will be a lot more affordable than paying for 8 weddings!! LOL! I'm working on girl number 3 here, and I'm already thinking about how much my own wedding cost my parents! LOL! Congrats! Boys are fun.

    What a relief to know that all is good with your new little one. My XH was the oldest of 5 boys and they had such a great brotherly bond, I can only imagine how great your family will be with another boy! Congrats!!!

    yes, but have you ever thought of paying for 8 boys car insurance!?!?!?! I think that I may be paying more in the long run......LOL!!!!



    Thank you to everyone! We are very happy............each time that we wanted a baby, we got a baby (well, last time we got a baby and a bonus......twins).......we have never tried for a girl, I am not even sure how you would try for a girls....LOL...........we are lucky to have all boys!

    Our other boys were freaking out at the thought of the baby being anything other than a boy!!!!! They were arguing who would have to give up their room (we have a 4 bedroom house).

    :shok: nope never thought about that!!! Yikes!! I think I'm really glad now to have just 1 ds (for now!!) LOL! My dh was probably in half a dozen accidents by age 21!! (Those are the ones that were his fault!) And he even had one so bad he needed surgery on his head b/c of bleeding. Okay..guess you have a good point...I'd rather pay for the weddings!! LOL!! Guess you could make them ride bicycles until they can afford to pay for their own insurance!! hee hee.
