Oh mini I know how you feel with the pressure that other family members but on us. I had the pressure of DH really wanting a son but telling me that he was happy as long as the baby was healthy. I had my 5 sisters and 6 sisters in law all telling me that they really want me to have a boy, but could not see me being the mother of a son so according to them I was most likely going to have another girl. ( I haven't told my family yet. They know that I know but I told them that they have to wait and see) And a friend of mine who also has a DD has also been trying to convince me that I am having a daughter, but she acts very competitive with me for some reason so I think she has another agenda.
So going through the first half of the pregnancy with everyone close to me saying that there is no way I could have a boy, had me acting my heart out that I would be really ok with whoever comes into the family and the more it went on the more angry I became with people acting like a girl was the 2nd prize as I love and want my unborn baby regardless of gender . And I know that would have had a while of gender dissapointment where I would have to mourn the loss of a DS that never was but that would be seperate to the feelings I would have had for a DD2. (I went through this with DD as I was totally convinced from the moment of conception that she was a boy and it took the 3rd ultrasound confirmation of a girl to have me believe it)
Fingers crossed that you will hear boy on the 8th but a healthy baby girl is by no means the runner up prize either.
