Why don't you want a boy?
I wanted a girl, I was so excited. I got in there and found out that I was having a boy and I wanted to cry. After the shock of not getting what I wanted, I realized what I could do with a boy. I wouldn't trade my son. I want all boys now! Weird how things change! You get what your given and you go from there.

Well I hope that a lot of people don't give you slack over this. It is perfectly natural for a man to want a boy and a woman to want a girl. I wanted a girl too. I was first told that it was a girl, and I was excited about it.
Then I started having some problems and ended up in the hospital and I had an ultrasound just about everyday. Turns out they were wrong and it was a boy. I was about ready to cry, but my husband was happy as a lark.
There is really no preparing yourself. You may feel dissappointed at first when you find out it is a boy if that is what it is, but when you hold that baby in your arms, all that just seems to fade away, because that baby is a part of you. Your feelings are natural and even if your upset at first, don't worry, you will adjust. If for some reason you do not please seek out counseling for the baby and yourself, but I have no dought that this will pass.

Prepare yourself by telling yourself that if the baby is healthy is all that matters. Boy or girl. It is not like going to a car dealership and picking out the car you want. Little boys are great. Little girls are too. It doesn't matter what you have, you will still love the baby because it is yours. Like I said just be thankful if they tell you it is healthy and growing the way it should. Don't let the boy or girl thing be a big deal. Babies are babies, boy or girl they are equally hard to care for and equally as loving. It should not matter.

Welcome to my world! My first born was a boy so was my second!With my first one I wanted a girl badly but at my ultrasound I was told it was a boy & I started crying like a baby I was extremely dissappointed.Believe me you will regret having the same reaction as me.What helped me with my second was realizing that a baby(even a boy) is a beautiful miracle & that there are many women in the world who cannot bear children & so we that can should be extremley thankful & not be picky.What we should want is for our child to be healthy.Unfortunatley we don't get to choose the gender but we can choose to be happy.Best of luck!

Kids are a blessing, don't matter what sex they come in. I hope that if you are having a boy, you learn to love him and treat him the same way you would if it was a girl. Sex selection is no for us to decide. Be happy and thankful that you have an open womb, think about the millions of females out there that would do anything to have a baby and yet they can't for whatever reason.

you get real for a second. And relise that having a child is a privalge many can not have. You understand fully, that this is not a matter of choice of what is given..but a gift. Would you prefer if you did'nt have a baby?..I'm sorry..but it sounds sooo selfish of you to say that. Already the child is being a burden on you if it turns out to be a boy. Grow up...get real..this is'nt about playing with your dollies anymore. "How do you prepare yourself"...sheesh..sounds like doomsday for you. if that is how you really feel..you should of thought of that before you got pregnant!

i totally understand my first child was a girl and when i was pregnant with my second i thought i hope its a gurl because i dont think i could ever love a boy. well i was sooooo wrong. he is so much fun and energetic and not nearly as whiny as girls. i promise that even if you have a boy you will love him the same as you would a girl. you should be more concerned about the childs health then the sex and that you both are taken care of. i know its a frustrating time and very nerve racking but i promise you will love your child no matter what. good luck with your baby

You know its a 50/50 chance right - actually males are born more often than females so its more than 50% on the boy side. Just assume its a boy and then you can be happy if its not but prepared if it is.

It`s a 50/50 chance....why do you not want a little boy?? I have a one of each and my son is almost 7 months old and he is just so cool!! hey have really cute clothes for them too!! I`m pregnant again and I don`t care if this one is a boy or a girl...The most important thing is that your baby is healthy...That should be your biggest concern...not the baby's sex..Good Luck...

I do understand to a point where you are coming from but instead of feeling disappointed just be thankful if he/she is healthy and developing properly. So many things can unexpectedly go wrong so just pray for everything to be okay. There are so many deserving people out there that will never get the chance to experience the miracle of a baby growing inside them.
