I'm Currently Feeling: | Am I wrong to think this is ungreatfull? A lady who my mum works with has been TTC for years, she has had lots of MC's (more than 4) and has never got past 15 weeks! She is now PG and in her 25th (ish) week. She decided to find out the sex of the baby and was told it was a girl. She's only now moaning to everyone how disapointed she is because she wanted a boy!!!
When my mum told me I couldn't believe it, it actually made me feel quite sick! I know some people do say they really want a girl/boy, but after so long TTC she's "disapointed" with a girl......WTF????
She wants to count her blessings that she's actually pregnant, its made me so angry  & upset!! I didn't mind what I was having, I was just happy & felt so lucky knowing I was having a baby!!
Its a crazy world!!!

I'm Currently Feeling: | I would think that after ttc for so long that she would be excited to have a baby. I would love a little girl just because I have been around so many boys, but a little boy would be just as cute! Especially if he looked just like my DH, awww....I would love to have one of each. I guess she is entitled to how she feels, but should be thankful regardless if it is boy or girl. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | People shock me they really do esspecially after going through the heartache of losses and trying! Its all exhausting in so many ways but to be so fucking ungreatful that her baby is not her preferred sex is discusting. Some people need a slap IMO! Im sure her love will grow for her lil girl and at her arrival but still sickening it hasn't reached maximum love already! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | My DH and I have been trying for a baby for 4 yrs (sadly we got pregnant but lost our little angel 2 weeks ago at 5 weeks 5 days gestation) - we've always said we would like a boy because my DH is the last in his line of males but when I fell pregnant that was pushed aside - we were just thankful we got pregnant.
So no you're not wrong to think what you did. She needs to take a long hard look in the mirror and count her blessings. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I agree that she should just be happy to be pregnant. It is ungrateful, yes, and if it was someone I knew I'd tell them so. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am one of those people who couldn't give a damn what my babies are as long as they are healthy but I can kinda see why she might be upset. With all the trouble she has had getting pregnant she might just think this was her only chance and so is disappointed that she will never have a boy. I bet as soon as she meets her daughter she will be totally in love, but at the moment is just coming to terms with it all. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | It is ungrateful, before i was pregnant i always said i wanted boys but now i dont care, i just want him/her to be healthy, I have already grown to love the little one inside me and can't wait for it to arrive no matter what the sex |
