I have had really bad points where i've wanted to cry that its all so unfair or that I must have done something really wrong to not deserve a daughter, but my last bad day was when I made this post and I know that whatever I have is what I was meant to have. It wont take away the longing for a daughter, but I will still be happy with my baby
I know how you feel, and I bet one if my sister in laws does, too. I've also got a friend who could relate to you as well

Me: I do have a daughter, than I have two living boys. I have lost two babies that were boys. Now that we are pregnant again, I want a girl badly. For a few reasons, but the first reason is that I feel I technically have four boys, two living. I'd like a girl. I had my first child (my daughter) when I was very young (I was such a blasted naughty teenager) so I never truly got to "enjoy" my daughter because I was so busy with school and such. But now that I'm in my later 20's, and a stay at home mom, I could truly enjoy a little girl. Second, since all my last four pregnancies were boys - I'd like this to be a girl. However, my stillbirth in September, being a boy...I think emotionally it would be harder on me to have a boy just because I miss HIM so badly. If that makes sense.
My sister in law: She had a boy, than...another. So, her and her husband tried again for a girl. Got another boy. Tried again, it was a boy. And they tried one last time...and it was a boy.
She wants to try again, so far my husband's brother has told her no way. Five kids is enough, and they are all boys so they run around the house and break things, they are very messy, etc. But my sister in law longs for a girl SO bad, I don't think she knows what to do with herself. They may try again, and may get lucky with a girl this time. I have no idea if they are going to try anymore or not.
My friend: My friend had medical complications really bad, she got pregnant and had a baby boy at 32 weeks. They tried again for a girl, and she had him at 37 weeks but with all of her medical conditions and high-risk, the doctor told her not to have anymore. Of course she was upset, and she said she felt that her family wasn't complete yet without a little girl. So, they went for the adoption route...and the JUST adopted a little girl!! Now their family is complete.
