I realise I deserve to be shouted at(I have asked my ante natal pals to do so)
But I need to share.
I am the lucky mum of a gorgeous almost three yr old boy. I'm 20wks pg.
Up until yesterday, i thought i was having a girl. I'm not. he's a healthy and very cute(say his face)little boy. I am very happy and in love with ds2-to-be.
However i also feel a bit confused,sad,deflated that i'm not having the daughter I imagined. I can't imagine two boys.(I grew up in a mixed family and feel richer for the experience)
I've already started to think about no 3(which dh and I had (jokingly?) disgussed prior to this scan to get a girl if beanie was a boy.
I feel awful. I feel I'm already planning my next one and this poor little thing hasn't even seen the light of day yet. (I have always wanted three kids BTW)
I feel so giuilty beacuse if they had told me beanie was a girl, I would be feeling differant now.
I feel like a totally awful person.
Someone out there please tell me that it is normal andnot the sign of total evilness to have a desire to have a little girl(or little boy )
I am sitting here in floods of tears,so excuse the spelling)
