Due Date Club November 2004:Boy-Girl difference , please-answer

Hi Everyone,
i would love to hear your opinions on this topic & also need to vent out my feelings badly.
As you know I'm pregnant with my 2nd baby & at the 'U/S the tech told us that its mostly going to be a baby girl again for us. My 1st baby Tanya is the most adorable lil girl & we just love her immensely.....the thought of having 2nd girl is also wonderful coz my hubby always wanted 2 daughters. I did want a boy this time but i'm equally happy if i have a daughter again coz tanya made me realize that girls are the most beautiful gift from God.
But what worries me is that how will my in-laws & parents react. I know in their hearts they're expecting a boy this time & i'd hate it if they feel depressed when my baby is born. I know all these girl-boy differences are so outdated by now & girls are no less than boys in anyway, but will the family think that way too? My hubby has a huge family & all his elder siblings have boys, i'm just worried if they'll pester me to have a pregnancy again in few yrs coz i'm not ready to have any more kids. I just want everyone to be delighted with the baby but will the news of another girl make them react differently?

I hate it that even in these times people are so hung up on having a boy....please share your thoughts. Atleast it'll give me some peace of mind. Thanks for listening.
RG.

congrats on having second baby. Being a mother of two I tell u its absolutely wonderful having two kids .U will really enjoy seeing them play together. Yes we always want one boy and one girl but its not in our hands. During my first pregnancy I always thought i will be having girl. (me and my hubby wanted girl)But once the baby was born i never thought its girl or boy. After a gap of 7 yrs during my second pregnancy I could not think of boy again. The best thing i did was i never asked my doc. whether its boy or girl. And once the second baby is in your hands u will never think what it is. They are so lovely.And whenever u go out with those two u feel on top of the world.(never realised before) As for ur inlaws as Shita said its ur life and ur body u have to decide how many kids u want.
Finally I want to say is u r very very lucky being a mother of two .

Hi RG,

Congrats on having another little ange!!l!

You know what, when I was pregnant I never thought I will have a girl. My family is full of boys and I'm the only girl. I was always left alone in the crowd. When I had a girl it was such a unexpected thing to me. Now I have seen the happiness and enjoyment a girl child can bring I think I want to have another girl only. I know I don't want to hv more than 2 kids, still I want another girl only. The 2 girls can have company for a lifetime. When I see my friends with sisters I feel I really miss having a sister.

I think girl child is a friend forever for a mom especially in later years. And 2 girls will make the house lively and a very happy place. I would say you are lucky. Having a boy or a girl is never going to be in our hands, whether it is 3rd time or 4th time. So just enjoy the gift God has given you and pray that you get a Healthy and Happy baby.

As far as grandparents r concerned, after the baby is born, they will love whatever baby it is going to be. They also realize it is not in ur hands and will accept God's wish.

Just enjoy your pregnancy and dream of the nice time your 2 girls r going to hv together.

Congratulations again and Take Care of your health,
CK

Hi rg,
First of all congrats to u on having another baby girl.
let me tell u one thing no matter how much modern people become there r still some who would stuck to all those old thinking....and there r many such people on this earth and u know what u shuld just not make urself upset coz of such people.
as far as ur inlaws r concerned may be ur thinking that they will not be happy but actually there is nothing of that sought.i know all of us want our families to be happy with the coming of a new angel but u know what the most imp. thing is that what u and ur hubby feels happy about and ur blessed with such a nice hubby then why do u worry let the world think whatever... remember u cant make everyone on this earth happy so just chill and njoy ur pregnancy....i hope u remember that its imp. to stay happy when ur pregnant and yeah,one more thing its ur life and ur decision whether u want another baby or not and if ur hubby is there with u in ur decision remember nobody can force u to do something just talk to ur hubby about this and let him handle if any such situation comes up in future.
tip is just njoy ur pregnacy forget about everything else.
chalo
take care
loads of luv
Njoy
shweta
