Lesson learned. Baby's gender

So today i found out i am having a boy. I was highly disappointed cux all d research, chinese calender, myth i learned all said i was having a girl.

Oh well..this is a lesson learned.. my next pregnancy i am not going to have such huge expectations anymore.

But..dang...i really wanted a girl. Seems its easier to have boys than girls.

I know how you feel. I have a little boy already. I'm currently 25 weeks pregnant with another boy. I was so convinced this was a girl.
But little boys are lovely, and so loving. All little babies are blessings regardless of gender. Just wait until you see him. It will be love at first sight :) x

Exactly I agree. I'm currently 36 weeks and 1 day along. And my boyfriend was hoping for a boy and I kind of was to but then I kept changing my mind and I was like what ever the sex is all I want is it to be healthy well at my 20 weeks exam they had told us the sex. He was disappointed and I was like yay I get to have a little princess running around. Then he got over it about a month after knowing its a girl. Now he can't wait until she is here. :) be happy regardless of what the gender is because not every women can carry a baby. So we are very blessed congrats to everyone and your little blessings.

You get to have your very own little Superhero (I have my very own Spider-Man). A bond between mother and son is so special. x

I was eager to find out the sex. So my obgyn suggested a blood test since the sonogram wasnt seeing any sex yet due to being so early in pregnancy

I got the test done myself because DR. recommended. it's very accurate so if it said it was a boy it's pretty much a boy :) I also wanted a girl but am happy that my 1 yr boy will have a brother to play with. Your feelings will get better about it with time. Enjoy your pregnancy and try not to feel so dissapointed, remember babies feel everything we do. God bless
