Dd is 3. Just found out we are having a ds. I have 2 dsis as does dh. The responses so far:
My mum: I don't know what to do with a boy
My dad: We'll love him regardless...watch out for the spray!
Dsis: Are you disappointed?
Childfree friends:
Oh. How do you feel about that?
I hope he's a good baby.
Colleague with a ds: I hope you've got a lot of energy.
I'm fully prepared to be told I'm being over sensitive. Dh has had nothing but congratulations. Is it the assumption that he has wanted a boy?
If I'm honest with myself, I had it in my head that it would be another girl, despite the obvious chance it could be either. I'm scared they won't have as close a bond with each other and of the finances - much less clothes hand me downs etc. These comments aren't helping to reassure me. I'm getting excited for our new arrival, but it's been a struggle with the odd comments. I don't them.

AIBU?
To be annoyed about some odd reactions to news that I'm expecting a boy?
