Was told incorrect gender at 20 week ultrasound
We very excitedly had our 20 week scan and were lucky enough to see a very healthy baby! We then came home with an envelope that was opened to find a pink rattle and “congratulations, you are having a girl”. What amazing news!
Since then we have named her, bought her so much pink, decorated a pink nursery and had our 2 showers the last two weekends! At 34 weeks we are ready to go! :)
Yesterday we were lucky enough to have one last ultrasound to see babies growth progress before the big day. We got some pretty surprising news though, baby is a BOY! A very healthy baby boy.
I am so thankful to be having a healthy baby, but I am really struggling with this change. I know it will take a little time, but I felt so connected to this baby girl that I would talk to, planned her future, and bought thanksgiving/Christmas outfits. I feel SO guilty, but I now feel such a disconnect to the baby. It almost feels like a different baby now.
I know this feel will pass soon. I am going out to buy him stuff tonight and we will repaint the room this weekend and hopefully try to settle on a name! I just feel sad and then incredibly guilty for feeling this way!
Has anyone else gone through this and felt a similar way? Or know someone who has?
