I`ve thought I was having a boy since about 7 weeks. And I was right! It`s what we were hoping for, so we were happy. I don`t think I would`ve been disappointed if he was a she though.

When we decided to have children we didn`t decide to have a daughter or a son. We made the decision to be parents. I was 100% certain I was having a girl. When I found out it was a boy I was happily surprised. Either one would have been fine. I am so blessed to be having this baby...period. Girl or boy I`m glad it`s healthy :) The other day my husband and I realized that our son will be the only one to carry on his family name. That`s kinda cool :)

I really felt like i was having a girl this time, but it s another boy! Yeah i did feel dissapointed, but on the other hand, so happy to be pregnant and having a healthy baby!

I voted NO...but I thought I was having a boy bc everyone told me I was. I had my mind set that it was a boy. When I found out it was a girl I was Ecstatic!! But I kinda felt like I couldn`t be AS happy as I wanted to be bc I knew my husband really wanted a boy so I was a LITTLE disappointed for him...but all little girls LOVE LOVE LOVE their daddy so she`ll be his whole world I just know it!!! Maybe next time he won`t leave the stem off the apple...hehe!!!

My husband & I have a 3yr old daughter...so when I got pregnant again {I am due tomorrow!!} I was really hoping for another girl! Mostly because I want my daughter to have a little sister because I have a sister. So...when I found out we were expecting a boy I was VERY disapointed. I cried...went through a little `baby blues` time...and I never thought I would get over it. I just never seen myself with a boy because I am sooo girly! Even now when I go into the nursery & see all the blue clothes hanging in the closet I have to look twice & remind myself that I am having a boy because I just had my mind wrapped around the thought of having another girl. But now that its down to the very end of my pregnancy...I am starting to get excited about the thought of being a mom to a little boy! I think about all the sports {I am from Canada so he will SOOO be in Hockey!!haha} and it will be cute to have a little `mommys boy` My daughter is still a little upset that we aren`t having a girl...but maybe she will get a sister someday! I used to think that me being sad over the fact that I was having a boy was a bad thing & that people would think I was a terrible mother....but I have talked to MANY women that have had the same feelings. It will be very different having a boy after having a girl {a very girly girl I might add!haha} But it will be a wonderful experience I am sure!!

i think i was just shocked i found out i was having a boy at 5 months so my whole pregnancy before then I was absolutely convinced i was having a girl and EVERYONE else thought so too so I had to get my head around it.

well the girl things ARE so cute; it`s hard not to browse through them, even if you are expecting a boy!

I have always thought I`d have a daughter so when I got pregnant I wondered if I would be disappointed if it were a boy. When I found out it was a boy, it was the most surreal feeling, almost like it wouldn`t be right if it were any other way, and since then all I`ve thought about is having a boy... I don`t even think about what it would be like to have a daughter and when I hear other girls say they`re having a girl I don`t feel resentment or anything. I just feel so damn lucky that I am going to be a mum, whether you have a boy or a girl doesn`t make you any more or any less a mum...

Definitely not. I didn;t get pregnant and decide to have a baby so that I could have a `son` or a `daughter`, I wanted to be a mother and have a child - gender did not even come into it. I just wanted a healthy baby!

we just found out we are having girl #3...i was a tad bit disapointed as we were hoping this one would be a boy. It is o.k though, I know I will love her as much as my other 2 princesses :)

I thought for sure I was having a girl so yes I was disapointed at first when I found out it was a boy. But I got over it :)

cherrybeth (334.2 days ago)
With both my pregnancy`s I just knew what each one was going to be (boy/girl). When I found out my first was a girl I was excited but it was also no big deal cuz I just knew it was going to be. But when they told us boy this time I got really excited to be having one of each. Then after the excitment was gone I felt alittle sad cuz I love my little girl so much I didn`t know how to feel about a boy. But I am sure I will love him just as much!

I was really hoping to be having a little girl. I wanted to be able to have pretty things for her and dress her up etc. When the u/s showed boy bits I hate to admit it but yes I was disappointed. I actually cried on the way home! However, now that I have had time to get used to the idea of a boy I am looking forward to having him and will love him to bits but really I do hope my next one will be a girl! Is that terrible!?

I thought I was having a boy & when they said girl I was a little disappointed, and thought my hubby would be too, however on our way out the Hospital my hubby opened a door for me and said `After you girls` it just made me so happy. Second time around hoping for another girl and told a boy, was happy but found it hard to imagine us with a boy.

KarenBG (334.2 days ago)
that`s a really good question to post; I have been wondering the same thing. My husband had been hoping for a girl, whereas I was sort of hoping for a boy; the last doctor visit, she said it looked like a boy (13 weeks though so obviously not 100 percent) and I was not disappointed but I was worried that my husband might be...I am happy to say that he wasn`t. =)

I was really excited every time I thought about the baby being a boy or a girl. I feel excited and blessed to be having a baby girl and would feel the exact same if I was having a boy! :)

Someone I know used my baby names for her own (which I am fine with) she had a little girl and used my daughters middle name as her daughters name and she is telling everyone that when she has a boy it will be our baby name which I told her because she asked (won`t do that again LOL), any way the question is would you still use your choosen baby names even though she is going round telling everyone they are hers? My husband still would like to use it.
