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.

mini- I have 4DD and my 4th is just awesome. Not to mention she is the only one who look like me have blue eyes like me . It's just something special about seeing a mini me walking around lol Anyway I love my girls a lot and you will love the new baby too no matter the gender.
And you know don't you think your MIL will be different if the baby is a boy. At least mine is not. SIL got 2 kids (boys) and only her kids matters . I know she wanted a girl so for me to have a boy and on my BD of all days is just killing them.
They never even said congrats to me when I had my boy or even send a postcard or anything at all for him.(not that I got anything from anyone else but still ) Not to this day! They are far away so only saw pics from the baby. But now we don't even post pics fro them. why should I?
Well I suppose living so far away from each other is good.
Hope it will be different for you!

Mini, I re-looked at your nub shots and I have a real good feeling that you have a little man in there
If it does turn out to be a little girl, then exactly as everyone else has says, she will be an absolutely perfect little addition to your family xxx
