Why am I still n doubt??

[RachelleO]

I don't know why I don't believe what I was told at 23 weeks maybe it is because it's not what I exactly wanted to hear... Looks forsure girl but I keep thinking nothing is 100% and what if maybe slim chance something his hiding up there?? The baby is breech and in a terrible position but she said she saw labia. I'm just driving myself crazy and prolly won't believe until I'm holding baby in my arms.

I would trust the tech they know what they r doing. Usg mistakes r extremely rare.
The sooner u can accept its a girl the sooner u can get done with ur grief and be ready for her.
I am sorry u didnt get what u were hoping for but second guessing wont change anything.

It's hard when you were really hoping for the opposite. I know I have been there and felt the way you do. With my third, I even scheduled a 3D ultrasound purely with the hope that the 20 week was wrong. It's a clear girl. The 3D ultrasound did end up helping me feel better because you can really see the baby and look at her features. Maybe you could have that done but that is clear labia on your ultrasound. I am sorry you didn't see boy.

Thank you both for the messages. I know once baby arrives I will it no matter what but yes it is hard. There could be a 4th in the future but I ofcourse don't want to make that decision until we see how 3 goes!! Just thinking I will never get a little boy breaks my heart...

I know how u feel. 2 months ago i was in a miserable place knowing i would never have a boy of my own. I will admit at one point i just didnot want to be pregnant anymore. 3 kids is going to be physucally hard for me to manage and i didnt feel like i wanted to go throught with it. But over time i have grown to like the idea and accept that this is the end. This is my life and my story. I can choose to be miserable or color it happy with my 3 girls. And i am finally choosing the latter. I for the first time heard someone feel excited for me to be having another girl, her words were " wow another girl, man some ppl r so lucky" it made my heart smile !!

I know it hurts worse for people so say oh man I feel bad for your husband or when wedding days come around. If I heard positive things I would probably feel better too! I'm starting to love the fact that my three girls will be so close in age. My oldest will be 4 next week and my other dd is 2. I think 4 would be really tough as my hubby works swing shifts and I don't think I could take another gender dissapointment.

Having a girl today is not like it was 50 years ago. Girls can be anything and do anything they want to do(in most countries).

Girls are badasses and they are lovely and they are complex. So are boys. I got the "sorry for your husband" comments but that is easily silenced as they become actual human beings with lives and interests. Boy or girl, once they grow up, the gender thing fades. At the end of it all, you are left with yourself and DH. That relationship is key and so is having a life beyond your children.

I understand wanting a son, and they are really great, but I would not trade my girls for anything.

Every time I hear someone is having their 3rd girl or already has 3 girls I tell them they have my dream family! I always wanted all girls! I have two boys instead!
