Everyone says boy, is it wrong I want girl?Anyone else?

Everyone says I am having a boy.. even my mom and DH.... my best friend's 2 year old saw me 2 days before my BFP and first thing out of her mouth was "Steph, Baby".... and sure enough she was right. Then today we asked her what I am having and she kept saying Boy.

I want a health baby no matter what, but I was sorta 51% girl and 49% boy( I coach cheer and love pink and ruffles, and didnt grow up with a girly girl mom and always said I wanted that for my daughter).... 

Anyone else feeling this? I dont want to be complaining, cause I am so thrilled to be pregnant and will cherish either sex we find out we are having... just cant help but have a little more pull to have a daughter!

hee. You really do want one, don't you? *hugs*

I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting a girl and admitting it, even if you do end up having a boy... You'll love the baby either way!

I'm torn between what I want more.  I think DH wants a girl and I kind of do too, but then I look at my sister and my nephew's relationship and I just love it.  I think part of what makes me want a girl is because both of my sisters (one due in Sept and one due in Dec) are both having girls.  I think it would be neat to have 3 girls.

Before our NT scan, I really felt like it was a girl.  Now I feel like it's a boy.  Not sure why.

I was so pro girl, but now I've switched to pro boy. Like you, either way I'll be thrilled but I can understand what you're saying. Healthy is a must but, I'll admit to being a little more excited if it turns out to be a boy over a girl.

You should be proud of yourself for being willing to admit what you want!  I don't think there's anything wrong with expressing your desires, when you know that you will be thrilled with either sex.

The fact that other people think you're having a boy means absolutely nothing. You still might have a girl.

I totally feel you on this. I have a girl already and at first I thought well it would be so cool to have another girl and then they would be sisters! But now I totally changed my mind and want a boy so bad. I feel bad at times and try to convince myself that either is fine. I know DH would be thrilled if it was a boy. On another note just cause they are saying its a boy doesnt mean it will be. I swear with DD every one thought it was boy I was even convinced. But she was all girl!

Since we have two girls, I'd like to have a boy.  I'm telling friends and family that I have no preference.  I learned my lesson last time.  Someone told me that she was sorry after the 20 week scan, and it made me feel horrible.

Oh yeah, I am really saying I dont care when anyone asks, and for the most part I really dont care what sex. Im just saying if I could choose, I would probably lean more to a girl only cause I know what to do with a girl and boys seem to always be exploring and doing rough and tough "boy" games. DH and his brother have told me stories about themselves as a kid and Im serious surprised neither of then ever got seriously hurt!

DH's mom said she didnt know what she would have done with a girl since she always wanted boys. I know that regardless of what people say you get what you get... however I think its funny how EVERYONE says boy!

I'm sure DH wanted a boy last time but I was thrilled it was a girl. Now I think he would really like a girl and of course a boy. Everyone thought it was a boy last time so what do they know? It's ok to have preferences because once you have the baby you will totally be in love!

I've been having girl dreams. The first was the night before I found out I was pregnant, woke up from meeting my daughter in a dream and got my BFP. Since them I've had several girl dreams and only one boy dream. I am convinced it's a girl and I do have my hopes up for one. As much as I will love whatever baby this ends up being, it will be a shock to handle if it's a boy after I've convinced myself it's a girl for 5 months.

I want a girl and so does my husband.  But I have feelings it's a boy.  I'll be thrilled either way, (and I know so will you) but I hear you and I think it's okay to have a preference

jennlin

i "know" i'm having a boy... i have always "known". i've always told everyone it was a boy...for the last 10 years or so . my bff thinks it'd be hilarious if we get pronounced "girl" because of me always "knowing".

ETA: i'd prefer a girl..but over the last 10 years, i've gotten myself used to the fact that this baby will be a boy. i can't wait to see what really comes out!

Ha, I would love a little boy but as my grampa says "As soon as you hold that baby in your arms it will be exactly what you wanted!"

I am in the same boat only everyone is telling me (and hoping) it's a girl (I feel boy) and I want a girl. So not only will I be disappointed, my whole family will be to name a few! LOL. Don't get me wring, I will absolutely love a son, but I prefer a girl if I had the choice. My fiance also wants a girl, but everything is telling me this is a boy - no idea why - maybe so I won't be disappointed if I am told it's a boy.

I think a lot of people feel this way and have a preference!

Angiee930

I am in the same boat, everyone keeps telling me it will be a boy and I even think it too, we REALLY want another DD but we will take what we can get  

KatelynEA90

I know how you feel. I really want a boy. I will be totally grateful and ecstatic for a happy healthy baby and I will love it just as much if its a girl. But it will honestly probably take some time to get use to because I really want a boy.

aldarr

I shamelessy admit I really want a little girl. People have been telling me they think it is a girl, but I think they may just be telling me that because they think it's what I want to hear! ;-)

jewerner

I'm the exact opposite! I want a boy but everyoneeee else in my life is saying girl. My aunt even said to my mom " i dont know why we're even talking about it, we KNOW its gonna be a girl!"

 Theyre just having fun too and everyone, you included, are going to be thrilled with whatever it is
