Bit disappointed

Hi, I'm Anna and allready have a DD and a DS.
I'm 16 weeks pregnant with the third one and got my U/S today. I was hoping for DD2, but it's a boy. I know I have no reason to complain, the baby is healthy and we allready have one of each, but I was really hoping for a girl!!

With DD I had a terrible pregnancy, lots of hospitalisations, premature baby with a lot of health problems, but in the end everything is all right. The pregnancy of my son was perfect. I was just hoping this time for a perfect pregnancy of a girl and the chance to enjoy a healthy babygirl! I know I'm selfish, I should be very happy that the baby is healthy, but can't help feeling a bit dissapointed.

The gynaecologist was very quick to look and said immediately boy. The only pic I got is this one, is it very clear it's a boy??

I'm sorry you're disappointed. It does look like a boy to me. I can understand wanting to enjoy the experience of having a daughter without the stress of prematurity. It's not selfish. If your son is the middle child I think your family dynamic will probably be even better with a boy as the youngest because the two same-sex siblings will be closer in age and most likely be closer playmates. The baby has a very cute profile, by the way.

I don't see any clues in this pic. But it's understandable to want a bit of a "redo" of a girl pregnancy. We all have various reasons for wanting one gender over the other. Hopefully it's a quick adjustment. Brothers are very cool too, so it's neat that your son is getting a close-in-age sibling :) Hang in there, I'm sure it will just take some getting used to.

Im sorry your sad, but honestly if its the nub im looking at then it looks like a girl to me!

Thank you all very much!!
And thank you 3littleladies for giving me a bit of hope ... but I think I have to be realistic. My 12week U/S looked very boyish and the gynaecologist probably knows what she's doing, so... I'm starting to get used to the idea of having another little boy, and you are all right, for DS it will be very nice!
Maybe I should be some clothes for the baby and also for the other two, ... maybe for my daughter something extra girly!!

Hi everybody! Four of my friends are pregnant and I truely cant believe it but they are all having girls!! Feeling really bad right now. I'm trying to get used to the idea of us having a boy but it really doesn't help when everbody around me is getting a girl. They always say its 50/50, pfff guess I am the only one......
