I'm not sure about before conception, but my DH would only ever really talk about a girl...he was going to build her a billy cart and let her help fix the EH etc etc.

Just after I found out, he didn't know how desperatley I wanted a girl as I had never told a soul, and went to pick up some groceries. He came home with a pink newborn dummy. I know in your heart you want a girl, and it's going to be one he said as he handed over the dummy. That dummy sat on the microwave the whole pregnancy. I was 100%positive Darcy was going to be a boy.....well she's not, but I wish I knew what he knew...
