Same Lillian and Mocha - I'm so grateful to have dd, she has healed me and made me happier in so many ways. I will always be thankful that I got to have a daughter.
But it hasn't taken away any bond I had with my sons. My Ds2 is my sweetest boy, my only mama's boy :awe: I love him to death. I bonded with each of my boys long before dd was even concieved and got over my resentment that I had with them being boys before she was born.
Instead I felt resentful towards my dh at times - because he gets to relieve his childhood twice and play all these boyish stuff with our boys, whereas I would often be left out :P Now I love it, because I have dd (who is pretty darn girly if I do say so myself). I don't have to pretend to enjoy myself as they wrestle/do whatever boys do and watch how they grow and how their personalities turn out.

i dont worry how my relationship will be as i will adore my children equally and i know there will be no difference
I am however worried about how my family will single out and lavish the attention on a girl and leave my 6 boys out.
my family is very girl favourable - my grandparents latch onto my hubby's neices like they are their own and leave my boys out so it makes me sad to think that if we ever did have a girl family wise they wouldnt be treated the same.

OMG, DP needs to see this post. Although he has said we will do HT one day it still makes him sad that my GD is so strong and wonders if I will favour the daughter. I can't believe he could even think that. He knows how smitten I am for our boys and that I am so so greatful for our little family. Having a girl would just take that 'something missing' feeling away and I'll know for sure that our family is complete.
P.S Then I can get my tummy tuck from the twins breaking my abdominal wall because you can't do it if you plan to have more kids. I'd be saving for that now instead of HT if I had a girl already
