Pregnant with baby #3

So I found out yesterday that I was pregnant with baby #3! I know babies are the biggest blessing and don't get me wrong I love my babies. But I have two boys and im so afraid of having another one. I feel guilty feeling like this, even though I KNOW I will love my babie no matter what the gender is. Has anyone of you women felt like this before?

Hi I have 2 boys and I'm hoping my 3rd is a girl!!! All my family and friends are rooting for a girl as well... At first i didnt want anymore kids because of the fear of having another boy. But ive come to terms that if its a a boy that i have 2 already and know exactly what to expect. As long as the baby is healthy and happy thats all that matters to me!

Its nice to know im not the only one. Im preparing myself mentally that im having another boy. I don't want to get my hope's up, I made that mistake with my second one.

I had this it is my second child and I wanted a second boy and I'm having a girl I was gutted at first. I spoke with my midwife about it and she said it's really common as your "grieving" for a child your not going to have. A few weeks after I found out tho I was fine with it and now I'm genuinely excited about having one of each. I know that we should be happy with what we get but it's not always that simple x
