Gender reveal disappointment?

Question

I recently found of the sex of my baby and me and my partner were hoping for a girl, we’re having a boy and I’m so ashamed of myself because atm I just feel a bit disappointed, I’d gotten so excited for all the scenarios i’d played out in my head of having a baby girl. 
I know I’ll get over it because at the end of the day my baby is healthy and it’s my first baby, of course he’s going to be so so loved and adored and he will be my world. It’s just that initial disappointment...
  
Does this make me a bad person?  
Did anyone else feel like this?
How did you get past it quickly?

Boys are awesome!!  You will love being. Boy mom

Answer

Girl same.  I already have 2 boys and we swayed in every possible way to get our girl.  We are having baby boy number 3 and this is our last baby.  I’ll never have my girl.  The disappointment is real. I’m not disappointed that I’m having a son ( I already love him and love my current boys to death) but I’m just sooo sad that I’ll never have the daughter I always dreamed of.  You’re allowed to be disappointed ...it’s normal and a lot of women go through it.  Don’t let anyone shame you for feeling the way you do!  But do know that you’re gonna love that little boy more then you could ever imagine!!! Congrats

Answer

I had gender disappointment too! We’re having another girl and we wanted a boy sooo bad. I definitely cried and mourned the idea of being a boy mom, because that’s how I always pictured myself growing up. I just couldn’t wait to have a son. Plus, all our parents’ grandchildren are girls, so we felt the pressure of everyone wanting a boy in the family. We aren’t sure we’ll have any more, so we really had to come to terms with only having girls. Which we’re fine with! It’s not that we didn’t want girls, we just wanted a boy too. But all is well. We’re now so excited to add another sweet girl to the family. Don’t worry, you’ll get there too!!

Answer

You’re not a bad person at all! Gender disappointment is a very real thing. We had a boy first and I was so excited! This time around we were both hopeful for a girl. When we find out number 2 was a boy, my husband was more upset than I was. We’re both over it now & I’m excited to be a boy momx2 💙 As it goes on you’ll feel less sad about it & get excited! Boys are awesome 😍🤍
