Horrible thoughts and curious about them!!

 Okay Next week I have an ultrasound to find out the sex of the baby and honestly I am  having horrible thoughts on this whole idea of finding out what I am having. I really want to have a boy but for some reason I know in my mind that normally you always end up with the opposite of what you want. Heres the thing..has any other woman wanted to have a certain sex and ended up with the opposite and not happy about it? or seemed that you would not be happy about if you found out you were having what you did not want? I am having horrible thoughts if they say I am having a girl. I Absolutely would be very very disappointed if they told me I was having a girl. I have no idea why I feel this way but I do. I do not want a girl at all. I am wondering if my thoughts would change if they told me I am having a girl or will I always regret my baby being a girl. Has anyone else ever had this issue? 

I think in situations like this, it's good for you to know beforehand. That will give you time to prepare emotionally before the baby gets here (if it's not the gender you hoped for). I don't think  there is anything wrong with being very pre-disposed toward a certain gender. In my case, I am hoping, praying for a girl. I even researched how to improve the odds of concieving one. Stupidly, I have already bought a few pink things (ok, they were on clearance, lol). If i find out otherwise, then I will be disappointed but at least have that time to get used to the idea.

I bought pink things when I was 8 weeks pregnant.  I just knewwww she was a girl.  I have the halloween pink kitty costume I bought on clearance last year after halloween before i knew she was a girl, that is what she is going to wear this year!

Hey girlie! I have to admit I'm right there with you...I've been anxiously awaiting the next ultrasound (which isn't for another4-6 weeks for me) and i have to say I must research daily about this sign and that sign of boys vs girls. I am soooo wanting a boy just because I have 3 stepdaughters and to be honest I don't think after this one and 3 already with us that I will want to try for another...and I know my hubby doesn't want anymore after this either. I've already told him though if this baby is a little girl I will not get my tubes tyed and will at least give it one more shot for a little boy in our family. I think the other reason why I'm hoping and praying for a little boy is becuase in my dad's side of the family I was the first grandchild and I feel I have always been slighted to the boys in the family....I was a girl and I just never added up...my grandmother had 3 boys and a girl and my aunt has also expressed her views as to feeling the same way. It's sort of just a complex I think I grew up with my whole life. However, I don't think I will be disappointed to find out it's a girl, but my hopes and prayers are for a boy. I hope that you find comfort when you have your ultrasound and will find out that you'll be just as excited about it just being your first little sweet baby. I've had different thoughts and different feelings, but I think I've just come to accept that if it's a girl then she will be loved by all and that is the most important thing. Seems like were in a lot of the same situations. Just keep your chin up and I have to agree that finding out the sex might be the best option so that maybe then you can come to terms with it and maybe it will give you a newer persepctive on things...hang in there girlie!

 Thanks Kerri!! I have reasons on why I want a boy too. My husbands parents have four granddaugthers already and no grandsons. Would be nice if they could have a grandson and that my husband could have a boy to carry on their last name. He was the only son and grandson for his one set of grandparents. My husband also had a son previous marriage but the baby died before it was born with his ex wife. At least I do know he can conceive a boy cause he has before but that does not mean he will have another. In addition to my reasons is Ive always wanted to give my dad a grandson because he has always wanted a son but ended up with 3 daughters. Now he does have one grandson right now..but he would love another one. Plus, I have always wanted to have a family of 4 boys with a husband. I have no idea why but that was always my dream. I have an Aunt who had all boys cause they kept trying for a girl. I am def hoping to find out the sex of the baby. I have been buying neutral things for the baby cause I have no idea what the sex is yet. I do know one thing this baby is making me very sick all the time and I always hear women pregnant with baby girls have morning sickness really bad. Although I do not believe in those myths cause I also have heard women being sick for baby boys too. 

I totally understand! As for the sick part...just ask my aunt *****minds me every day...she has 2 boys and she was sick EVERY single day of both pregnancies. I, on the other hand, haven't had any morning sickness thus far and I think I've even tried to let myself believe that I can do things to change the sex if it is a girl...i know...ridiculous right! lol For me, I've always said I never wanted to get married or have kids, but after I GOT married...not once but twice now I really am excited about the baby and just hope 1 is enough. See, my husband's ex last year (even though she's had a partial hystorectomy and everything) had the nerve to call and want to tell the girls that she "supposedly" found out she was pregnant but it was tubal and had to have a d&c done. Then, she had even bigger balls to try and tell us the dr told her she was 8 weeks and that he could determine the sex and it was a boy...just to try to stab at my husband's heart because she has always known he wanted a boy one day. We knew better, but she thought we weren't smart enough to figure that BS out! The funny part is though now that my hubby knows were expecting, I think he is expecting a girl and has even mentioned that he's done the girl thing so he knows what is coming if it is a girl. His oldest biological daughter, Emily, is a little tomboy and she's daddy's little girl. So she's vicariously living out his dream of having a boy LOL!

I'm anxious and nervous to find out the sex, but I'm a little reluctant as well. I think deep down inside of me I would love to have my own little girl. I think another part of it is that I have 3 stepdaughters and I wonder how my love for them will change and if I will show favoritism towards the new baby girl. I think if it was a boy and something different for all of us it might be different all the way around.

Well, like I said before, try to hang in there and I'll say my prayers for a little boy for you as well. But be blessed because no matter what in the end you will have a living, breathing part of you in life now and it;s truely a miracle. Just think of everything you've been through and remember that there's always next time too right? ;) Hugs!

Just so ya know... I'm having a girl and I have had absolutely no nausea, vomiting, or sickness whatsoever. My cousin had a boy, and she was sick as a dog. So that really doesn't mean anything!

when i found out jaylyn was a girl i cried. seriously.. for 30 mins... then i went shopping and got over it... when she was born i was clueless... i thought ot my self how the hell will i get poop out of THERE!!!.. now i love her more then life itself.. her brother loves her and is very protective over her.. sometimes he is the only one that can make her smile -esp when shes hungry LOL.. i have to admit.. my baby lady has my heart

 Aawwwwee See thats what I think will happen to me is I will cry. Thanks for the reply I am sure no matter what the sex will be I will be happy. Being its my first child and practically a miracle for me because I did not think i was ever going to have a baby at all.

Dee,  I'm right there with you. I have my heart set on having a girl and I took that "Intelligender", which predicted a girl too and if I don't have one I'm not sure how I would feel. Very disappointed I know that and we always have to be "political Correct" and say "well I'll be happy no matter what"....well my heart will still be sadden by not having that girl. I have to say my first I wanted a girl as bad as I want one now and he was a boy.....Tyler is my bestfriend and I couldn't ask for a better little man, so I'm sure if it's not what you want your heart will warm up eventualy and you'll embrace that baby with all the love you got. I hope you do get what you want and I'll say a little prayer for you on that. I'm hoping for your boy and I'm hoping I have my girl :) Good luck sweet heart.
