Pink or Blue one?
Hello All
Is anyone else obsessing over the sex of the baby? I don't know what's wrong with me - i'm a woman possessed. I have a 22month old daughter and i really really want a sister for her. There are heaps of other reasons why i want another girl but i won't bore you all with the details. Thing is, i'm worried about my state of mind if it's a boy as i am so anti boys at the moment. the fact that 2 of my nephews are very difficult boys, wanting to fight, get dirty etc doesn't help matters. also, a lot of the boys that my daughter plays with at play groups are very agressive which is turning me off the blues completely. i really think i might be in trouble if it's blue and i worry that i could reject the baby and get pnd. oh dear.
anyone else feeling the same or something similar?
In addition i find it so strange as i used to love boy babies (before i had my daughter). i think it's boy toddlers that i struggle with. they seem to be so much more of a handful.
help!

I am secretly hoping for a girl as we have lots of boys in our family and i have a son...but i know i will be just as happy with another boy....im sure you will love baby equally as much if it turns out to be a boy....think of it as an unknown challenge....brothers and sisters have just as much fun as same sex siblings
My whole family want me to have a girl, but I already have an inkling it is a boy, so i'm not worry about me,more them at the moment! Ha Ha

you are SO right, of course i will love baby when he/she is in my arms, i know that deep down. And honestly, the most important thing is that the baby is 100% healthy. i'm just being a drama queen and i suppose if it is a boy, i want to be excited about it (as i should be) not thinking oh no, wish it was a girl. that's all. YES i am most defintely going to find out. i did last time. i just have to know. i hate saying ' it' and i have chosen names. last time, i was calling Addison by her name before the 20 weeks scan as i was so certain she was a girl. the scan is 2 weeks monday - roll on!
