Found out I’m having another boy and genuinely thought it would be a girl so now idk how to feel - I love my baby and feel happy that my son gets to have a brother closer in age but sad for myself as we weren’t planning more kids after this so does that mean I’ll never experience a daughter?

I mean, yes if you're not planning more children then you won't experience a daughter. But don't feel guilty. Gender disappointment is real and very normal.
I have a little boy who is 2.5 and I will find out this Saturday what we are having. I'm hoping for a girl and I know I'll be a little disappointed if it's a boy. But it doesn't stop us loving them any differently.
Accept your feelings ❤️ you've got 6 months left to adjust 🫂 xxx

Don’t feel bad, your feelings are valid lovely xxx I have a little girl and would like another as I feel another girl would fit in better, but too not having anymore so feel I should be wanting a boy! It’s such a tough one xxx

I know that feeling. I’ve got 2 boys and I was a little upset when I found out the second was a boy but I wouldn’t change him for the world he’s amazing. And I’m not pregnant with a third and think it’s another boy x

I felt exactly the same with my second son, I was so sure he was a girl and desperately wanted a girl
However now expecting #5 and it’s my first girl. Having 5 was never in the plan originally, I thought my 4th would be the last. I was fully accepting I would forever be a boy mum
But other circumstances led to us both wanting another baby, so it’s funny how things work out in the end
Thanks girls. Think it’ll just take a little while to imagine my new reality but sure I’ll love it - also finding I shouldn’t shut off the idea of baby 3 as that’s making it harder to adjust? Xx

You might you can change your mind and have a third
Also it’s so nice to have two brothers 😍
Tell me please how did you find out this early ?
