Hi everyone, I had my 20 week scan today and have found out we're going to have a girl! I already have a 5yo DS, and he's a bit disappointed as he was desperate for a brother
. My DH and I didn't have a preference either way.
I'm not really sure how I'm supposed to feel. I was so relieved when the sonographer told me that the baby was fine, and she had no concerns. Then when she said I was having a girl.......I don't know, I thought I'd be happier. I think I had it in my head it was definitely going to be a boy. I'm not feeling disappointed or anything, just shocked.
I'm so happy and relieved that baby is healthy, and that was honestly all I was hoping for. We wanted to know the sex so we could be prepared, but........I just feel a bit deflated. Why is that? Maybe it's because I won't have the 'surprise' at the end of it all? Maybe I'm just still in shock! I honestly think I would have the same reaction if she'd told me it was going to be a boy. Just not feeling the excitement that everyone else does, iyswim?
Did anyone else feel like this when they found out?
