Just Wanted To Let It Out

I felt absolutely terrible for feeling this way and felt this forum was the best way to 'let it out'. My husband is pretty upset with me about it and told me I shouldnt tell a soul...but we found out last week (at almost 19 weeks) that we are expecting another girl...I have always wanted boys and was disapointed when we found out our first was a girl...and she is AWESOME- some (including myself) would say perfect. I wouldnt trade her for the world. But I REALLY wanted a little boy this time. My husband comes from a family of all boys and is excited about a house full of girls, but I come from a family of all girls and we never and still dont really get along and now I am going to have all girls. I know it sounds terrible, and please dont hate me...I love my daughter and I will love this one as just as much...Everyone kept saying it was for sure a boy- and I just kept telling myself it was a girl so I wouldnt be severly upset at the ultrasound. Might I add we know we arent going to have anymore children. I have been reading and reading about wrong ultrasounds, but I dont think there is anyway this could turn out to be a boy. I am just so bummed. please dont brow beat me, yes I am very lucky to have been able to have children at all and that they are healthy. Thanks for letting me be honest.

I understand the feeling... I too have a girl and am now pregnant with another girl. Everyone (including my husband) was convinced it was a boy this time, so I was thinking blue right from the beginning. Then the ultrasound tech said... It's a girl... and I said check again! But it is in fact another girl. I'm fine with that because girls play good together (and fight good together haha) but I know they will be close. As for your situation, don't a__sume that you won't have more children... you never know what the future holds. Accidents always happen... in fact both of mine were "surprise" babies. I wouldn't bank on this baby being a boy... but eventually things may turn out better for you. Best wishes... and congrats on another healthy baby.

Your not horrible. It is natural to have the feelings you do. We had a girl first as well, and really wanted a boy the second time. We got our boy, but I think I would have initally felt the way you do as well if he would have been a girl. You will get over it, especially once you see your beautifull baby girl for the first time. As far as the relationship between your girls in the future is concerned, that is something you can help to shape yourself. Encourage loving behavior between them, start when your baby is born. Telling your older child how much the baby loves her and vice versa. Our daughter will be three in February, and our son is 5 and a half months. Congratulations by the way!

I have a boy and desperatly want a girl, although a boy(being my last) would be great for my 2 yo ds! I actually cried when I found out my first was a boy! Now though I am so glad to have him. He is great! I feel that this one is a boy too, so I guess I am prepared to be upset, but am very lcuky anyways! There is no shame in wanting one or the other. Its obvious to me that you love you daughter and will do the same with this one! GL

This is my 1st baby and I was also hoping for a boy. I had an ultrasound dec. 26th but the baby wasnt very cooperative. The angle wasnt very good to see but she said she thought it looked like a girl. My whole family was hoping for a boy. Theres still hope :) but even if the baby is a little girl we will still love her all the same!!
