Why do I feel like this?

Question

I have a beautiful healthy baby boy who I adore and wouldn't change for the world. I won't deny I did want a girl but as soon as he was born I got over that. But I feel like everyone I know has girls. Today my best friend found out she was having a girl. I am happy for her but can't help feeling a bit jealous that she's getting her girl. Of course I love my son to pieces. Why do I still feel envious when people have girls? I thought I would have gotten over this. 
I know I should be grateful I have a healthy baby and I am.

Answer

I just found out I'm pregnant with my third girl,  I really wanted a boy.   I know your feeling but reversed.   now all I can think of is three bitchy pmsing teenage girls :( I'm so done having babies but I really wanted a boy

Answer

I think it's normal to still want a girl even if you are over the moon about your little boy. My SO feels the same way, he desperately wanted a girl but we have a son (who he absolutely loves). He feels like everyone else got a girl except us and he gets so jealous when someone new announces they're having a girl. I believe my parents still feel that way. They have 5 girls because they kept going for a boy, and they were overwhelmed when we announced a boy in the family, my dad was so excited he thought we were lying or the ultrasound lady was lying, he was so afraid to believe it.
