Just got BFP...gender dissapointment already?!

Don't count yourself out yet...there are a couple of threads on here about "gut feelings", and lots of people are wrong! Personally, I KNEW that DD was a boy, didn't believe the U/S tech, and paid for a private U/S. For DS I KNEW boy...so I'm only 50/50 on gut feelings.

I have kinda been playing mind games with myself. We did some swaying stuff, but nothing hard-core. I have two sons and we don't plan on this being our last baby, so I wasn't too worked up about the gender. When I first got my BFP...I thought "It's a boy" and held onto that thought, strongly. But in the past two weeks (10-12 weeks along) I have been entertaining "what if it is a girl?" I keep reverting back to refusing it is a girl. I feel like I need to prepare myself for my third son. And I don't know if the "it's a boy" thoughts are protective because I refuse to get my hopes up. Or if they are really an intuition that I am expecting a son. There are days where I know it's a boy in there. And days where I feel it could be a girl. I don't think the intuition can be trusted when there are other factors going on. I never had super-strong intuition with my boys anyway, so I don't think I have it this time either..just a protective feeling for my own self-preservation. I just keep picturing my child in my head, both as a boy and as a girl and remembering that when they are here, I won't care a bit.
