I feel awful for even thinking this, but we found out we're team blue yesterday (i thought we were) and part of me is disappointed.
We already have 1 son and due to space and finances won't have any more after this one. I'm so happy that LO is healthy, we've been lucky to get pregnant quickly both times and pregnancy seems to agree with me so I should be happy.
The thing is, I would love a daughter. My feelings are made worse by the fact that my SIL had a daughter a few months after I had my DS and is pregnant again with a daughter (due just before my DS2). These are the only girls on DH's side.
I feel sad (and jealous) that I'll never get to buy cute girly clothes for my own LO, by her girly toys, cute jewellery, have mother/daughter days etc.
DH was over the moon to be having another son, he doesn't want a daughter as he's used to boys so doesn't understand what I mean and I feel like a bad mum for even thinking this.
