Yep! I went through this 50+ years ago.With my 2nd son everyone wanted a girl. Even my Dr. said we were having a girl, we didn't have sonograms back then and the surprise came the moment the baby was born. He was a big 8lb 4oz.healthy bouncing baby boy! Every one loved him and we still love him.

He might be disappointed at first but the thing is.. the moment the baby is there all he'll care about is that s/he is healthy...
If its a boy and he seems a little depressed about it talk about certain things he can do with his son that are good things to get his spirits back up... and then mention trying for a girl after the boy.

He'll just be happy to know the baby is healthy. I thought most dad's want a little boy to play football with and have a mini them. I wanted a girl but im having a boy, I was disappointed but I am so happy now and buying boys clothes is so exciting. Good Luck

He will love a little boy as much as he would love a little girl.
As a dad I was in this situation back in 1985. I really wanted a daughter and so did my wife, but God had other ideas and we got a little boy. He is now 22 years old and I can't imagine how I could have loved him more if he had been a little girl.
Daddy will be fine. Don't worry. Take care of yourself and have a healthy baby and he won't be at all disappointed.

As long as the baby is healthy it shouldn't matter what it is and he should/will be happy when he first holds the little bundle of love in his arms. My husband would like one of each we have a 4 month old daughter at the moment but he doesn't care a great deal if we were to have another girl as far as he is concerned as long as it is healthy that's all he could ask for. Good luck all will be fine : - )

I'm sure once your husband sees your beautiful baby he will fall completely in love with her... or him!
There are lots of great things that daddies and sons can do together, playing and watching sports, building and craft projects, all that kind of "guy stuff".
My husband (and most everyone else) was sure we were having a girl, but we had a boy, and now I can't imagine it any other way. And daddy adores his little son.
Of course, it's a great excuse to have another baby, too!

He should be thankful its healthy. Some parents want one sex or the other and end up being set straight when the baby ends up having a health problem. Tell him it doesn't matter what it is, it will love him just as much as he loves it. The more he loves the more love he will get back.

Yes ,I have been in the same situation,except my husband was hoping for a boy and I wished for a girl.
it was my 3rd baby and we already had a boy and a girl.After our baby girl was born,he held her,and said."I didnt think I would be able to love another girl as much as I love the two I have,but I have fallen in love another time"
Dont worry.I promise he will love your baby as much as he loves you,and will not be disappointed whatever you have.

no offense but i think its a little too late to think about that...plus its not like you had a say in the sex of the baby.
Coming from a male's prospective i dont think that it would matter what sex the baby is, as long as its healthy.

Remind him that it's his part of the dna that makes up the sex of the baby.
