I have 3 girls and I was very upset when I found out my third was a girl but I love them all so much. I'm pregnant with baby number 4 now. Maybe I'll finally get a boy !?

Wow. This leaves cold. Your mother in law's behaviour is nothing less than appalling.

I'm opposite but I feel you. I have 4 boys and every pregnancy I wished for a girl.  Now I would not change my boys for a girl. I did cry when the 2 nd 3rd and 4th were all announced boys but I love it now. I'm 5 weeks preg with my 5th I just hope she/he will be healthy after my 12 week miscarriage i realized I only need a healthy pregnancy/baby and that's all that matters. Once u see her little face looking at you just thank god she's a healthy little marical.

Its ok to feel like that ive seen other mothers post similar ones like yours. I have a girl and would.love to have a boy this time. I find out tomorrow. And if its a girl i probably will be a little disapointed but as long as baby is healthy is all i truly care about. Good luck and hope you feel better soon!

I understand where you are coming from,  but be thankful to God for the ability to conceive and bring a child into the world. Am 29 and begging my baby to hold on because I don't want to go through another loss this is my fourth pregnancy I have lost 4 babies because one pregnancy was twins.  no trying to preach at you but Keep a positive mind. I grew up with 3 sisters and 1 brother it was fun. Hope Your Pregnancy Goes Well.

I understand, my husband and I tried everything in the book to conceive a boy this time. Uh, nope. This will be our 5th daughter. However, she's mine and it didn't take long for me to be excited about my precious baby after hearing the news. You're still in that shocked mode, you'll come around.

True ladies I should be happy my baby is healthy, but the pain is still there as my in-laws wanted a boy especially my mother in-law.she said if it's a girl she will never be part of my baby she wants a boy, besides her I also prayed for a boy and my daughters too wanted a boy.thank you ladies, being in this app helps especially with good, loving and supportive ladies like you. Thank you and may God bless you with healthy babies. Love you all

Just thank God there is a reason why. I have 3 boys and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am currently on my 4th pregnancy and just praying that God blessed me with another of His healthy angels

I was going on my second child and was hoping for a girl as well. But I'm having another boy. What can we do? I think about it this way. God gave me another boy for a reason and I should also be thankful to have another child because alot of woman can have a child.all I can say is that I'm happy and can't wait to meet my little boy in 13 days

Wow! I understand but at the same time, why aren't you just happy that you can get pregnant and have a healthy baby?? Some women can't even get pregnant and some get pregnant and have miscarriages or stillbirths.

You just have to think positive. There's some woman that can't conceive at all and you have been blessed with another healthy child
