I was so scared of having another boy, 3 full on boys would have tipped me over I think. DD was a gift we didnt expect and I suspected early on it was a girl because she was so different to my other 2 pregnancies. Here they arent allowed to tell you what the sex is, but they ladies at US gave our boys hints about it being different this time etc. I would have loved my baby no matter what, but we are so very happy it is a girl.
On another note- we went out to dinner afew nights ago and the young waitress asked if we had had our 2 sons to get a daughter- her parents had had 7 girls before they got the son they wanted- giving away 3 of their girls along the way.
Gender disappointment is common here. I know girls who were ignored by their grandparents or parents because they are girl. I know of babys being aborted at 5 months because they are not boys. Childrens welfare homes are full of little girls.
I can see both sides and understand them.
