I got my little girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1052590 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 14:14:43 +0000 NavyRN2012 1052590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I desperately wanted a boy with my first, and that's what I got. I really had no preference with LO#2, and got a girl. I am happy with my one of each :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1052442 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:31:53 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 1052442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of you lucked out! I wanted a girl. Got a boy. Wanted a girl again. Am getting another boy :-)</p> <p>I will say, though, that my son is just such a fantastic sweetheart, and he's taught me that my fears of not "relating" as much to a boy were ridiculous. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1052421 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:23:58 +0000 prettylizy 1052421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was squarely in team blue and really really wanted a boy for our first. My DD was a big surprise and she is my world. I can't imagine being a boy mom now... to the point that I'm afraid to have a boy this time and am hoping to give DD a sister. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1052407 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:20:44 +0000 kjpugs 1052407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's so funny, I just blogged about this yesterday! Hoping my 3 ultrasounds are right and we are getting the GIRL I so badly wanted!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1052399 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:18:40 +0000 Glitter 1052399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH wants a boy... I imagine a girl, but really, I would be just as happy either way!</p> <p>My mom would def want a girl (she doesn't know I'm pg yet) because she has 3 grandsons and no granddaughters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1049598 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 12:46:51 +0000 lawbee11 1049598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wanted a girl &amp; got a girl :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1049566 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 12:35:26 +0000 swurlygurl 1049566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a girl and I got one :)</p> <p>I would REALLY love to have 4 girls, but I might feel a little bad for DH... ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1049473 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 11:56:50 +0000 MrsTiz 1049473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I truly didn't care, DH didn't really care either but I guess if we HAD to pick, both of us would have said boy &amp; he turned out to be a boy! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want/page/2#post-1049468 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 11:54:39 +0000 littlek 1049468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: I'm in the same boat.

CVS is scary, longest 3 days of my life waiting for those results.</p> <p>I wanted a healthy baby. This time I want a full term baby. I'd like a girl but I'd be thrilled with another little boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1049442 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 11:48:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 1049442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a girl and got her, next round I don't care.

We had a boy and I couldn't be happier. If we are lucky enough to have a #2, I'd like a girl </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1049429 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 11:43:14 +0000 Boheme 1049429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a healthy, term, take-home baby and I got one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1049421 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 11:40:08 +0000 catomd00 1049421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Logically, I want a boy first. But, deep down I really want a daughter. We were told at our NT scan there was a good chance it's a girl, so we'll see. Trying not to get too attached to the idea of a girl until we know for sure. Everyone thinks it's a girl. I don't really have any clue, but if I had to lean one way, I'd say girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042122 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 09:49:03 +0000 LomaLinda 1042122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wanted boy and had a boy! We were team green and I convinced myself he was a girl so I wouldn't be disappointed. But my gut feeling had been boy and I was right!!! Couldn't be happier with my son. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042117 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 09:45:16 +0000 loveisstrange 1042117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a girl, got a girl. If we have another, I want another girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042114 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 09:42:12 +0000 ElbieKay 1042114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband reeeeeally wanted a daughter. I didn't have a strong preference but I had sort of pictured a girl more than a boy. Turns out we are having a boy. My husband had a strong enough preference that I wanted us to find out in advance so he could have some time to adjust. I'm glad we did, because I would not have wanted to have that twinge of disappointment to accompany the actual delivery. We have known for less than two weeks, and my husband has started thinking about the perks of having a son :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042080 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 08:57:12 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1042080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went in wanting a girl. After a scare requiring CVS, all preferences went out the window, we just wanted a healthy baby. Turns out she was a girl! For #2, it didn't matter to us, we just wanted the right situation regarding birthparent mental health and substance use. Turns out it was another girl.</p> <p>There is something sooo special about sisters!</p> <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: We did not want to not let the external challenges of raising a black man dissuade us, so we focused on being really open to boys and girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042076 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 08:56:05 +0000 Lindsay05 1042076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wanted a healthy baby and got her! For #2 we are leaning of course to a boy and we are team green so we will have to wait and see! Another little girl would be a wonderful blessing :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042072 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 08:52:39 +0000 sorrycharlie 1042072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a girl..and got one! I still can't believe it - I thought for sure we'd have all boys based on DH's family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042070 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 08:50:20 +0000 MrsH 1042070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A healthy baby :) We find out Tuesday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042062 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 08:39:24 +0000 Mrsjets 1042062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted a boy first and we got him! I'm hoping for a girl this time so we can have one of each but another boy would be great for not having to buy anything except diapers ect. I'm 13 weeks so we'll (hopefully) find out at my 20 week anatomy scan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1042049 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 08:29:54 +0000 Mrs. PBJ 1042049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Deep down I really want a girl, but I have this feeling it's going to be a boy so I'm trying to psych myself up for having a boy! Lol :happy: I'm only 6wks so it will be awhile before I will know for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1037021 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 15:26:05 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1037021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A girl! We feel so blessed with DD! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1037006 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 15:18:09 +0000 GrapeCrush 1037006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wanted one of each, and that's what we have. :)<br /> With #1 I wanted a girl, got a boy. #2 wanted a girl, and we got a girl :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1037003 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 15:17:09 +0000 lilteacherbee 1037003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my m/c, I had absolutely no preference at all, I just wanted a healthy one. One day, I actually sat down and tried to think about what I wanted, and it was pretty much equal. When we found out he was a boy, I was so happy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-dodid-you-want#post-1036994 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 15:13:34 +0000 Springtime 1036994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my 1st, wanted a boy and got him. This time around I really want a girl! We will find out in 3 weeks. </p>
