Honestly, losing a child is all the more reason to feel so blessed either way to have a healthy child, it may take some time to come around to the idea, but I think having all boys is sweet. There is nothing on earth like a little boy's love for his mother, and when your boys are grown up, guess who they are going to love more than life and look after like a hawk? Your sons. It might take some time, but just try to think of how your son would feel knowing that you were depressed about him being him. My mom had 2 girls and then expected me to be a boy..I was definitely a girl, and she still talks about the disappointment they felt when I came out a girl, and honestly it hurts a little. I'm sorry for your loss, and I hope you come out of your sadness. Have you tried talking to someone about your loss?

I understand that you are upset but there are so many people that can't have kids on there own even alone lost there baby and for you to be angry that you are having a boy I find that a little selfish and not being thankful. Not to sound harsh or mean I'm just saying be greatful for what God has given you.

and i'll tell ya what...i thought having another girl after clara would make me feel better...i think i was trying to replace her or covor up the pain. It probably would have been harder on me if i had had a girl..Just remember there is always hope and maybe you might still be able to have a girl <3
