Baby gender disappointment

Im nervous to find out what I'm having mostly because baby will eventually share a room with an older sibling and I don't want to switch the rooms my current kids are in around 😅 I'd prefer a girl just for that ease and so my son can be my only son so he's still got something special as a soon to be middle child

I felt this when I was pregnant the first time round, and I did have a boy. But he is the most amazing, funny and loving little thing and I can't imagine having anyone else. This feeling is so normal, but I promise when they are here it doesn't make a difference (apart from fact you are more likely to get wee'd on if you have a boy, and clothes are harder to shop for!).

For my first pregnancy I was really hopeful for a girl. Tbh I think it was just because I thought I’d be able to relate to them more. When we found out it was a boy I was initially pretty bummed as I just couldn’t see myself with a boy. But I honestly now couldn’t imagine a better outcome. Being a boy mum is wild 😂. Whatever blessing you have will be exactly what you need 💕 I promise. Please don’t worry yourself too much about it either. Fate has already decided and you’ve already got so much going on to cope with already 😊

So I really wanted a girl first time round, I had all the names picked out, just felt like the baby was a girl. I went for a private gender scan and they told us it was a boy. I cried, that was my boy. It just hit me and it didn't matter any more. My son is amazing, quirky, clever and handsome and I honestly wouldn't change him. So this time around, I really don't mind :)

Thanks everyone, just feeling upset as I won’t be getting pregnant again, I have had awful sickness and it’s really put me off doing it again!

This is so normal so don’t be too hard on yourself because trust me, when they are here, you won’t care!! First pregnancy, I would have chosen a girl if I could but instead I was blessed with the most perfect little boy who was meant for me. I’m now pregnant again and honestly, I’m hoping for another boy because that mother/son bond is other worldly! You won’t be disappointed when they are here, I promise you x

I have the same story, I wanted a girl initially, but now Ive had a son, I could have all boys, they are so cuddly and sweet and crazy and it’s amazing. 💙

I was the same with my first pregnancy I really wanted a girl, only picked out girls names and clothes and when I was told I was having a boy I was disappointed. Wouldn’t change him for the world and I soon got over the disappointment and it turned to excitement. It’s totally normal to feel that way so don’t feel bad on yourself for feeling that way. This pregnancy me and my partner have just been referring to baby as “he” to try and ease some disappointment this time round😂x
