Gender disappointment

My partner and I are really excited to have our first baby. The only thing which is scaring me a lot is that we would love to have a little boy. To me a little girl would be great too but I just picture myself with a little boy.

This will be our first baby, my partner since day has wanted a boy. I know he will be devastated if it is a girl. I’m not painting him to be ungrateful for the gift of having this baby. I’m just so worried he’s going to be so upset over having a girl instead of a boy.

I know I will be upset too but I’m so fixated on the baby them being okay I know it won’t take me long to “ get over it” as such. But my partner I know will struggle. He has such a picture of him with his first born being a little boy and taking him places. Which I know he can do with a little girl.

How has other people’s partners dealt with this? I’m so scared over the reaction.
