I have always said I want a boy, two girls and another boy. I got my boy first. ( I am of course happy with healthy). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554962 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:01:32 +0000 banana 554962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kinda wanted one of each (but really didn't care all that much) and got one boy and one girl! I wouldn't have minded two boys either though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554925 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:45:13 +0000 Mrs. Polish 554925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: healthy is all we want :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554883 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:31:30 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 554883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just wanted healthy happy babies... and hoped that I had one girl in the mix. We were blessed with two! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554875 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:28:36 +0000 MamaMoose 554875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a boy. Mainly because I loved having an older brother and it seemed natural to me to have a boy as the oldest. But throughout my pregnancy I had a strong feeling it was a girl and really warmed to the idea. I was thrilled when she was born and my feeling was proven right. I LOVE having a girl. But hubs and I are both hoping for a boy next. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554852 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:20:39 +0000 pinkcupcake 554852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a little girl sooo bad - was beyond thrilled when ultrasound showed it was a she!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554847 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:19:59 +0000 Pepper 554847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wanted a boy (though we would have been happy with a girl), and we just found out we're having a boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554825 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:15:15 +0000 Mrs. Pen 554825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a girl and was sooo scared to have a boy. My brothers totally scared me hahaha... Jk.. Kinda.. </p> <p>Anyway when we had our gender scan it showed boy and I was a little disappointed.. But it didnt take long to get over it and embrace having a boy. Now I'm totally in love with this little boy and would love to have another one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554802 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:04:00 +0000 Bao 554802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really wanted both, but had a feeling she was a girl, and she was! I think since I had a feeling she was, if she were a boy I would have been very surprised and felt a little less prepared, if that makes sense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554789 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:57:19 +0000 jedeve 554789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted both! But I picked boy because a) I had all sisters and DH has two little nieces, so a boy just seemed fun and different. B) I was so convinced it was a boy that I wanted to be right! But I feel weird saying I wanted a boy because it sounds sexist. I don't think boys are any better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554776 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:51:43 +0000 LuLu Mom 554776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was happy with either for different reasons but deep down wanted a girl and got it! </p> <p>next round I'm really hoping for a boy! ha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554766 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:48:20 +0000 Foodnerd81 554766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know what it is and I really don't care. But DH would really like a boy. I just keep reminding him that there is a 50/50 chance. We both really feel like it's a boy though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554765 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:48:13 +0000 BananaPancakes 554765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't care either way. My husband was leaning a little towards wanting a boy, but wouldn't have been upset with a girl. We had a boy. If we have another, I feel like I'll want a little girl for me, but a little boy for my son. So we win either way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554739 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:40:27 +0000 Honeybee 554739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We really didn't care with either kid, which is part of why we decided not to find out the sex during pregnancy. It worked out perfectly, both times! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554735 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:38:51 +0000 dojo 554735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't care either way - we both had guessed it was a girl... then we found out it was a boy! Couldn't be happier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554724 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:34:20 +0000 autumnlove 554724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really wanted a boy for our first and we have a girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554707 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:28:54 +0000 sslm 554707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't care so much either way, especially after a mc, we just wanted a healthy baby!</p> <p>But, that said, I knew I wanted to have at least 1 girl, and so I hoped we would have a girl first, and we're having a girl! Yay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554657 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:15:51 +0000 cascademom 554657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@QBbride: When our baby boy was born, I can't remember if it was one of the doctors or nurses who said it, but one of them said "Yep, still a boy." </p> <p>For those who haven't had their boys yet, apparently they like to cause trouble during labor by kicking off monitors, etc. When I had a couple of nurses come and go, they were alerted to my stats. When they heard that there was some random little troubles and I was expecting a boy, they weren't surprised at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554648 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:13:31 +0000 Minnie_Girl 554648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Other - didn't care! I felt *slightly* more comfortable with little boys (I babysat a nephew from 6w-2.5 years), but I couldn't be happier with my little girl. Boy or girl, you can't go wrong! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554642 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:13:05 +0000 cascademom 554642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wanted a girl. I had a strong feeling early on that it was going to be a boy. We couldn't be happier! He's so much fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554641 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:12:57 +0000 Springtime 554641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We hoped for a boy and got a boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-gender-you-hoped-for#post-554638 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:12:30 +0000 QBbride 554638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have always wanted a boy and our anatomy ultrasound says BOY!
