I know you will be happy no matter what. My sister has 3 boys and wanted a girl
But never had anymore because she said she knew it would be another boy. Boys are so sweet. I had 2 girls ages 13 and 8 then I had 2 boys two years apart. Never thought that would happen. I didn’t know I was having the girls until they were born but found out about the boys before. It’s kinda fun not to know ahead of time. It’s like Christmas. You could always just wait. But they do say there are 106 boys born for every 100 girls. Wishing you all the happiness!

I can completely relate to everything in this post. If I were ever to have a third (unlikely!), I would struggle with the same dilemma. When my second boy was born and my husband announced “it’s a boy!” I was shocked and devastated. I was sure he was a girl! It sounds trivial and foolish but it is not! I shook violently and my body went numb. I had a very difficult time bonding with my baby boy, something that will haunt me forever. He is three now and is the biggest snuggle bug. He and I are as bonded and close as I am with my older son but it took a lot of time and I do wonder if some of that could have been avoided had I known earlier that he was a boy…? I wanted that labor room “it’s a girl” moment so I did not find out but in hindsight, I wish I had. Best wishes for a happy, healthy pregnancy, delivery and baby!

In reply to Marty. Thank you Marty! I don't think I ever realized the sacrifice, time and angst of a mother's heart until walking the mommahood road. How thankful I am for the refining power of it.
