This is probably ridiculous -

Of course, first and foremost I want nothing more then a completely healthy baby.

But, waaaaay deep down inside, I am dieing to have a little baby We find out the sex on Feb 14th at our Level II and I think I might be bummed if it's a . Am I bad mother already?

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

OMG I could have wrote that..When i found out I was pregnant I was going to Lesters (baby clothing store) and picking out these crazy beautiful outfits in my head I was sos convinced that it was a girl...Then after Amino resluts came in I was bummed for a little now I just want a healthy baby boy and I have so excepted the fact that its a boy! I m thrillled its a boy!..I will adopt my baby girl.

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

don't be embarassed for feeling that way! no one gives guys a hard time for admitting they want a boy

and the truth is, while i too just want a healthy baby, it's hard not to think that it would be so nice to have a little girl b/c the clothes are just sooo much cuter!

you will have a beautiful perfect healthy baby no matter what you *wish* for!

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

I wanted a girl sooooo bad. My family needed it...last 6 kids born have been boys...lol. When I found out I was having a boy I forgot I wanted a girl first. For me just knowing the sex Made me thrilled to have a boy. Maybe you'll feel the same.

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

you are not a bad mother at all....when i was pregnant with my son, i wanted a girl so bad...and when they told us at my level 2 that it was a boy, i was shocked. well, i have to tell you, he is mommys little boy...and i hope for every mom to experience having a boy someday. the bond is sooo incredible! when everyone else ended up having a girl, and i had my boy i realized i wouldn't trade my little man for ANYTHING! either way you will be happy....trust me! and theres always round 2.....we're having our girl now and i actually am more excited for my husband to have the daddys little girl experience!

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

I am right there with you. I wanted a girl SOOOO badly, and so did DH. I even bought a few girl outfits. When i went for my level 2, we found out we were having a boy. I won't lie, i was a little sad at first, but now i'm getting into BOY MODE, and i'm excited about it, and its so true when they say the most important thing is to have a healthy baby.
I've also got one more chance at a girl, since we want two kids. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the next one. Plus, i'd like it if my little girl had an older brother, so i still have a shot at that. If not, it will be my and my BOYS.

Good luck!

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

I'm with you. I want a son - it's all I can think about when thinking about my Charlie-bean. I feel like I will be disappointed if I'm carrying a girl...but I'm sure I'll get over it. Honestly, the health and well-being of this bean is the most important to me...but there's still that twinge of guilt over feeling disappointment if he's a she.

Glad there are more of us "bad mothers"

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

You are not a bad mother AT ALL!! I have a feeling that once the tech tells you "It's a ____" you will be thrilled either way!!!!!

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

Don't worry, you won't be. I secretly want a baby too but either way I'll be happy. My SIL desperately wanted another boy and found it is was a girl. She said it took her a little while after she found out but now that her little girl is here she said she couldn't imagine it any other way

Actually, this post is a few days old so you must know the results by now!

February 14th we go for the sono/find out the sex.

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

I didnt care what I was having with #1 but now that I am pregnant with #2 I really want another girl. I want my daughter to grow up with a sister.
I dont think I will be disappointed with a boy but a part of me really wants another girl.

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

I agree with the others, you’ll be happy either way.

That being said, I want a BOY!!!!! (glares at heaven)

Oddly enough though, I have a girls name picked out for YEARS but nothing at all for a boy. I have a rough idea for a boy’s name but the girl, hrmph, that is a given. Go figure!

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

NO> I wanted a girl for our first and we got it and a boy for our second. would have love either one either way. This time It does not really matter to me

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

My DH has two boys from his first marriage, and we both desperately wanted a I wanted something that would be a "first" for me and DH. I was so nervous finding out the sex because I really thought that if I found out it was a boy that I would be devastated. You're not alone in those feelings

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

No you are not a bad mom. I wanted a boy and I had a boy.

But honestly, once the baby was there. I don't think it would have mattered. Even after we found out. I was just so happy to be PG and be a mom.

Re: This is probably ridiculous -

DH and I always figured we would have 2 kids, a boy and a girl.

This is our first and we're having a so I know that DH will want to try again for a boy!
