| Pregnant (Expecting) Active BnB Member  Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: Yorkshire Posts: 304 | Scan tomorrow and super STRESSED! I am so beyond sick and tired of everyone telling me i NEED a girl this time  No-one really seems to understand that i couldn't care less what sex my baby is and it has got to the point where i don't want to tell anyone. I feel like i'm going to be disappointing some people, i hate this pressure. I even suggested to my OH that we wait till the birth, but he is desperate to know. My friend at work said i need to have a girl this time to complete my family, WTF? Even my MIL, when i said i think it will be another boy shot me down by saying oh no no no it's definitely going to be a little girly girl. Why does everyone have to have an opinion and put it on me??  Rant over, that feels better  |

It's the first baby in the family for my generation and I have three brothers, hubby has two brothers - no sisters for either of us. So today at a family lunch, the mothers were debating how our baby HAS to be a girl because there hasn't been a girl for so long. It made me feel like if we're having a boy it won't be loved as much...  |
