Think you could be right about other peoples expectations affecting how you feel. I have 3 daughters and am expectinga boy this time. Me and my oh have never minded about the sex, but some people like to put in their twopennies worth. Someone last week said ' oh fourth time lucky getting aboy" I was cross, my hubby adores his 3 princesses and hates people to suggest he would rather have had boys. Good luck with rest of pregnancy
