Can i ask u ladies a question. Im having a bit of a debate on a thread about gender selection and hoping and ttc a certain sex. My opinion is i just want a healthy baby. Dont care what sex and people who can have babies without difficulty should think themselves lucky. How do u ladies feel.about it cause that thread has made me so mad x
I had a conversation like this when I was pregnant with my son. From day one I was having dreams of a red haired boy. (I'm red head too so not really surprising).
I was getting people come to me every second of the day saying "I hope you have a boy, I really want you to have a boy, I have 3 girls so you've got to have a boy" and shit like that and I was literally going batshit crazy until one day it just broke. I ranted so much about not wanting a boy and crying about it being ginger that I then attracted more abuse from people saying "How dare you say that". I was a mental wreck.
I did want a girl, My family had a 12 year gap between the youngest girl and the next to arrive, who was actually adopted by my brother... Then this wave of family pregnancies resulted in 2 of my cousins having girls and I was jealous! I wont lie, I did want a girl and when they confirmed he was a boy I did cry.
Now, I would NOT change him for the world, he has the most amazing ginger hair haha. It's much much longer than most babies his age (Passed his shoulders and more) and so straight.
He is utterly perfect and it was my pregnancy hormones making me lash out at everyone, so although I can't say I condone gender preparation or selection, I would not allow a bunch of hormonal woman to upset me, hun. Keep calm and let them get on with their lives. They're the ones who will be disappointed when it goes wrong.
