Girl... Had my big ultrasound today. This may make me sound awful, but I'm really disappointed. I had my heart set on a boy. Tongue Tied Oh well, she's healthy and I'll get over it.

    If it makes you feel better, I felt kind of disappointed at my U/S too when i was pregnant. I had my heart set on having a boy, I was in denial it was a girl until she was actually born.

    But now I can't picture my life without having a girl. And I am so happy that I did end up having a girl.

    I guess this board has been too slow lately.  Who created the AE to stir up drama?

    Same sort of thing going on with the 9-12 board.  OP could have done a better job at trying to stir up drama here.

    To OP: try posting something about wanting a baby shower because you are pregnant with your fourth child.  Then mention that your family is raising your third child and you have a little problem with Mary Jane that you haven't been able to kick, even while pg.

    Well if this is an attempt to stir up drama, you failed. 

     

    Maybe you could talk about being furious with your mom that she won't watch your kid on Friday night and all day Saturday and how she never helps at all except when she watches him for 50 hours a week while you are working at the strip club during the day hours because you can't work nights again until your c-section scar heals. That would be fun.

    This isn't an AE... at least if it is she's posted here a few times.

    I would have bet money on the fact that I was having a boy. I wasn't disappointed that it was a girl, just really, really surprised.  I'm sure any disappointment will disappear when you start buying girly things and finally get to dress her up!

    Little girls are so much fun.

    Nothing :( I was just thinking of what would make the biggest splash around here on a day like today.

    Her name looks familiar for me too.

    I thought I has having a boy too. I wouldnt even consider looking a girls name because I was positive it was a boy. 

    When I went to my u/s and the tech told me it was a girl I felt bad, and then I felt guilty for that but then she started showing her stuborness and personality that I couldnt care less about her sex. She was my child and that was all that mattered.  

    Now I cannot picture myself with a boy!!

    I did the same only they told me I was having a boy... I was totally convinced it was a girl.  I hadn't even THOUGH about boys names or anything.  It didn't take me long to decide I was going to be happier with a boy, lol.

    I'm obviously really confused? Did I do something wrong? I know I don't keep up with posting here. Too much going on with school and work, but I think maybe I've been mistaken as someone else?

    Back to my original post, I was sure I was having a boy. That was sort of like the one last thing keeping me sane at this point. I'll love a baby girl no matter what, but I had always pictured myself having a boy and doing all the sports and stuff.

    I haven't even posted about the father recently. Since I finally moved out about a month ago I haven't heard from him. I did send him a text to let him know when this ultrasound was to see if he wanted to go, but he informed me that he has "too much on his plate to do the baby thing." That was the final straw. My last attempt at getting him involved. I can do this on my own. :)

    Sorry again that I have been awful at posting regularly.

    Take care,

    I think that some people were a little thrown by her word choice in the post. I was,at first, too. It was hard to tell HOW disappointed she was about having a girl. I went through something similar and figured that she didn't really mean disappointed, but surprised. I was a little uneasy about having a girl at first because I'd daydreamed about a boy for so long that it was hard to think about having a girl. 

    But, what helped me? Shopping for little girl things. Seeing little girls in all their glory in stores or at church. I realized that I won't have a momma's boy... no... but I'll have a momma's boy! I couldn't picture my life WITH a boy, now. I couldn't be happier.

    To OP, it will take some time to adjust your daydreams, but you'll get there. And you'll get excited. Don't worry!
