I had the whole nursery planned in my head already. I was a little disappointed and honestly it took me awhile to get over it. But now I'm so happy I have a boy and definitely wouldn't want a girl now. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245812 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:20:54 +0000 Mrs. Bee 245812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was told i was having a girl (genetic testing by a quack doc) with charlie, and ended up finding out it was a boy at 16 weeks. but even though i had been used to the idea of a girl for weeks, i wasn't disappointed at all to find out charlie was a boy.</p> <p>if olive were a boy though.... i would have been disappointed for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245806 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:18:31 +0000 T.H.O.U. 245806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was really happy we had a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245781 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:12:00 +0000 PrincessBaby 245781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was totally convinced I was having a boy. TOTALLY. When we found out she is a girl, it took me a day or so to let it sink in. Now? I love her so much and have been so in love with the fact that she's a girl, I was actually nervous that at the 20 week Level 2 scan, they'd tell me she was a boy! I was so glad when right off the bat, the tech was like "Definitely a girl!"</p> <p>I also always thought I wanted one of each, and then lately I've thought like you - that I want her to have a sister. I have a younger sister and I definitely want that for my daughter:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245756 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:03:42 +0000 heffalump 245756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all. I really really really wanted a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245717 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:54:50 +0000 MamaMoose 245717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is part of why I like being team green. Even if my hubs and I have a slight preferance there is no way we could feel any sort of disappointment when our child is actually out in the world with us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245708 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:51:38 +0000 HabesBabe 245708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were Team Green... I really wanted a girl, but everyone told me I was going to have a boy based on "how I was carrying." So I kinda prepped myself to have a boy, and I was thinking that it would be better for the hubs if we had a son first.</p> <p>Then when the hubs announced that the baby was a girl, I was in shock! We were totally head over heels! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245681 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:47:20 +0000 hilsy85 245681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunglasses: lol I will totally be like this for the next baby. </p> <p>We were/are really really happy with having a boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245677 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:46:11 +0000 MaisyMay 245677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wasn't disappointed, but I was suprised. For some reason I was utterly convinced we'd have a boy, but we've a girl on the way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245675 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:45:59 +0000 DpeachLu 245675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was sad to hear girl and not boy.. but now I can not be happier with my baby girl.

We were sure we were having a girl, but it was a boy. Second time around I was shitting in my pants. I wanted my girl so bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245656 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:41:23 +0000 Rubies 245656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was so excited that I was having a girl, even though I thought I was having a boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245652 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:40:30 +0000 sorrycharlie 245652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was SO excited to hear it was a girl! I honestly thought I'd never have a daughter, as DH is one of 3 boys! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-disappointed-when-you-found-out-the-gender-of-your-lo#post-245641 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:38:06 +0000 chopsuey 245641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With #1, I was sure I was going to have a boy. When the tech said GIRL, I was so shocked and a little disappointed. I quickly got over it and became SUPER EXCITED for my baby girl. </p> <p>With #2 I was hoping for a GIRL. When the tech said BOY.. again. I was shocked and disappointed. (WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!)</p> <p>Not gonna lie, getting over the shock this second time around is taking a bit longer than the first time..<br /> I think it's because I really wanted my daughter to have a sister! And I wanted to re-use all of her clothes again. :P </p>
