So I currently have four boys and recently found out I was pregnant again. Last night the NIPT showed its another boy and I feel almost depressed about it.I love my kids but 5 boys just isn’t what I expected… everybody has daughters around me. My family is full of women, I have zero biological uncles. And yet, I’m the only one having boys. I know a healthy baby is more important but this really has me in a chokehold. I really believed this was my daughter and she’d be all for me. Now I’m having a hard time just not crying and I feel so bad for even reacting this way. But ig I just wanted to be done after baby number 5. I try to stay grateful because Ik it’s so many women who wish they could even have children, so I’m so sorry to those of you.

If you’ve dealt with gender disappointment, what helped you?
