Why do you want a girl?

[dreams529]

For me it is an echo to what many of you had said. I 've done the boy thing & mastered it. I want my DD to have a sister & experience that bond. I want to enjoy the shopping 7 bonding that comes with a DD. Most of all I want to use my girl name & honor my Grandmother.

I was never that close to my Mum which has nothing to do with me being adopted because my Sister who is my Mums biological daughter feels the same way about her. I am passionate about pregnancy, birth and babies and when I was pregnant I strongly felt like I was missing out with not being able to have a close bond with my Mum through the process and not being able to ask what her pregnancy with me was like. For me it is a lot about the adult relationship and having that close Mother/daughter relationship that I feel I have never had and being her role model and the chance to Mother a daughter 'right.' Basically correcting all the wrongs my Mother made with me that made me feel not that close to her.

Also to share my my main hobby of being arty/creative. I'm not into pink but clothing is one of the stems of my artsy side and I always said I would take up sewing if I had a daughter so I could create pretty things for her. I love to draw and it is what I try to do in my small amount of me time and I try to do art with my son but I feel my talent is wasted with him asking me to draw trucks and diggers when my speciality is people and I just long for a girl to ask me to draw her princesses and mermaids and castles.

I was a tomboy growing up so I can see why I am a good boy Mum candidate and I have heaps of fun with my lovely boys but part of me will always be sad if I never have a girl of my own, a little mini me to dote on.

And a not so important part but I would love a DD for my partner who has 6 sons. I would love to see him go all goo goo over her and protect her. All the Women in his family are stunning so she would be the prettiest little thing. I don't care what she looks like though or if she is a tomboy. I just want a female child and the chance to parent both genders too.
