Unpopular Post Warning - Gender Disappointment
First let me say, I’m not ungrateful. I have MTHFR & Factor V blood clotting issues. I take heparin shots 2x daily to keep my pregnancy viable. I’ve had 6 miscarriages, I have two healthy sons, and I appreciate every moment. I just need to vent about our final baby we expect in August, who I just learned is boy #3 for us, when I really thought it was(and wanted) a girl. I’m elated that I will have 3 boys, they’re the sweetest - and craziest - brightest spots in my life! Brothers for life. But I find myself feeling sad that I won’t have girl days. I’ll have no one to pass my womanly wisdom to, no one to show what it is to be a GOOD mother to a daughter, unlike my own relationship with my mother. It’s a funny position to be in, and such a taboo subject that I haven’t told any of my friends, or even my husband how I feel. I just don’t want to feel resentment. Just had to vent this out.
