Yep. I feel ripped off at having only girls and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Coming from a huge family of pigeon pairs (both mum's and dad's sides of the family all have at least two kids, girl first, then boy), I guess I just assumed that it would be that way for me. I only ever wanted two, but any consideration of a third has gone out the window because we're statistically more likely to have another girl than a boy - I won't risk it.
As Freya said, no matter what anybody says, parenting is different for both genders, and I'm sad that I've missed out on raising a son. I love that my girls have a sister who is their best friend and their worst enemy (unfortunately my brother and I missed out on the 'friend' bit, we still don't spend much time together even as adults), but I'm sad for myself. And it annoys me that people are so sympathetic... to my DH. Yes, poor DH lives in a house full of females and never got a boy who he could work on cars with, throw a ball to or take fishing. Except he's not fussed at all, our daughters are such Daddy's girls and he wouldn't have them any other way. Nor would I, I do love them to bits and wouldn't change them for all the world, now that I have them... but I wanted a son as well as a daughter.
Funny you mention sympathy! I find it ironic and slightly weird that people can be sympathetic to a man without a son................but as a woman without a daughter I get buckleys sympathy and usually just harsh judgement if Im honest about my yearning for a girl. IMO its the same thing! Especially when I feel society puts such a huge prize on the mother-daughter relationship.

Your right Kels, in the end you will be happy with your baby! I love my boys dearly, especially my youngest who I suffered pretty severe gender disappointment with while I was pregnant. He's even probably the one Im closest to! Those of us who feel disappointed at lost opportunities (either badly or mildly) arent monsters who dont love their kids, quite the opposite.
