I need to vent.

I need some advice.

We are expecting our 7th child.

We have five boys and one girl.

We had originally discussed waiting until birth to find out the gender of the last baby, because that’s what my husband wants.

Me not so much lol.

I’m trying to compromise, but I just don’t think I can wait.

I know that gender disappointment can be very real, I have experienced it before.

I have also gone through postpartum depression, and it can be challenging when you have a full plate that still needs to be tend to daily with littles at home.

I’m terrified to wait until birth and if we have another boy or kinda put me in shock and I have to deal with the feelings while recovering. Now, don’t get me a wrong- a healthy and happy baby is always first and I am BEYOND thankful every day for my sweet boys and will be for this one too if it’s another, but sometimes you can’t always control your feelings and I want to prevent all this happening and taking away from the birth and find out now.

What would you do?!

(Added- we also have a daughter who would be devastated if she gets another brother, and I feel like giving her enough time to prepare if that’s the case, would also help her)

HELP. 😬😭❤️
