I would not change having 2 boys 1st... Or for that matter 3! I'm not sorry you had a boy and I'm sure you won't be either!! It hurts not hearing what you want, I've been there...a couple times now;)
Definitely go HT if you can and really need a girl because it doesn't get easier to not hear what you want each time. Although for some reason now that I'm at 4 I feel a lot better about hearing a boy this time~go figure!!
Your 1st son will love having a little brother and if you're newby is anything like mine, his older brother is his world!!! He adores that guy more than me I'm pretty sure:)

Yes I agree Coco, I think my DS2 loves DS1 more than anything in the world!! He calls him "my best brother".

Two boys is so much fun! Mine are the best of friends. They walk around holding each other's hand and are sad if they aren't together. They are always laughing and having such a blast together. They do fight at times but always make up with a big hug and kiss! They seriously adore each other and both of them adore our 3rd boy too. I don't at all feel sorry you heard boy because you will absolutely love the dynamic! It is hard not hearing girl, but by time you have that guy in your arms all of that will fade. This is 4 and if a boy I will be slightly disappointed but I know I won't for long! I agree with coocoo for some reason I feel like I will have a lot easier time accepting another boy this time than DS3. I had already come to terms with never having a girl and then this total surprise. DS2 and DS3 were my GD babies and both are total Momma's boys! I love it. Congrats on the new little blue bundle! If you ever feel down we can all relate, so we are here to listen.

Everything coocoo said is so true!
I was so very crushed when I heard DS2 was a boy. I thought I was going to have 2 kids - 1 boy, 1 girl and life would be perfect. That all shattered and I felt robbed. But now, I realize that it is so opposite. My world is everything it is b/c it all started with those 2 boys, and now 3, and now most likely 4. I have never felt more at peace about hearing boy b/c I know the joy they bring. My cousin just had her first baby...a boy. And I just melted when I saw him b/c I know what she has in store and I know that a baby boy is just fantastic!!
Congrats Kittybear! You are so blessed!!!

Not in the club but saw the comments - congratulations on your second son. I was also slightly disappointed when I found out that my second was a boy, as I was also hoping for a girl, but loved it when my good friend (herself the momma of four boys, and no stranger to gender disappointment!) said to me, "It's so wonderful. Just think - they'll be each other's best men at their weddings." Thinking of these two boys getting to grow into men together was really what put me over the top into joy over having another son - and now he walks around the house going, "Brother! Where are you?" if he can't find him. It is wonderful. Zillions of congratulations to you on your healthy baby boy <3.

I totally agree with everyone else i love having 3 boys i did have some gd with 2+3 but it only lasted a couple of days id like a girl but even if i do get my girl this time i would still like to try again for a boy id love 4 boys and a girl! I feel sorry lol for ds3

Congrats kitty! Not pregnant but trying
..your post really resonated with me like alot of us here I had terrible GD with DS2 i too thought i would be the one that got the pigeon pair I then suffered in silence pretending i was really happy . really glad you have a supportive family :) and it is hard to imagine but like the other ladies I often feel so lucky when the pigeon pair families are throttling each other and my two boys are playing so nicely together!! I took a four year break to enjoy my boys, go back to work and come back I hope ready for my third boy :) try if you can to not research HT just yet but to go shopping, decorate his nursery etc etcxxxxxx

So just found out that my SIL due 2 weeks before me is having a confirmed girl (her first baby, so no pref) ....want to be happy for them but feeling so jealous :-((

I don't even hope I have a chance at hearing girl. Not really thinking of it, still at the 'will baby stick' stage, will it be healthy etc. I had mild disappointment when I heard ds2 was not the girl I thought he was going to be. Dh had bought pink booties as a surprise, really rather sweet of him and a total surprise. I think he was more disappointed initially as he kind of handed them to me in a "don't need these" strop! But after 11 long months swaying ig style, 7 bloody sway factors and having 2 losses, when I found out our third was a boy I actually was devastated ....cried, snot and all for a few days, then I shopped. Beautiful bedding, nursery all done, just like I would have gone overboard if it had been a girl. Poor ds2 got ds1 hand me downs bedding wise! Ds3 was such a mummy's boy, before he became a rampaging toddler. Ds2 was initially a daddy's/grandads boy ... But he's 7 and is a wee mummy's boy through and through! Still nuggles up and holds my hand and says the sweetest things. Ds1 still gives me kisses and cuddles all the time, just not in public. It'll be disappointing, especially having swayed, but your boys will always be your babies, no matter what. Take time to adjust to the news and get shopping! Congrats on a healthy baby boy xxx
Dream pink .... Hugs xxx
