Pregnancy Info HOME

I understand how you feel - I have 2 girls and I always kind of secretly wanted a boy ( I haven't found out this time which it is yet though preg with #3) but I think alot of it is hormones right now too - It makes everything seem so much more traumatic then it really is - I will tell you this and hope it helps - I am a single mom myself I have 2 girls now and I am hoping for a boy last time around I was wanting a boy but then thought 'o man but how will I teach him to be a man he will have NO male influence in his life' so that freaked me out - and made having a girl a lil sweeter. But this time I am back to wanting a boy because I think as a single mother I can raise him to be a better man then the men I have encountered in my life - and I look at mother son relationships ESPECIALLY single mother and son relationships and see just HOW protective those boys grow up to be of their mothers and I think that would be awesome to have .. I feel like if I was blessed to have a boy he would be the ONLY man in my life to ever love me unconditional.. I didn't have a great relationship with my dad .. and every man I have ever dated has really never loved me - and I would like to have one Male in my life who doesn't want anything from me but love and care .. and who isn't after some hidden agenda or who doesn't have conditions on his love for me - ANY relationship between a mother and child is always a great one .. mother daughter or mother son - I think though Boys tend to be more protective and endearing to their mothers as they grow older - it is of course all in how you raise them but that is my take on it. My grandmother had 5 daughters and 1 son (my dad) and all the girls moved away and lived their lives my dad was the only one to stay and care for her (she was single) until the day she died. I hope that gives you some positive thoughts on having 2 boys ... I am just trying to put a positive spin on it for you. Don't feel bad for being upset that is normal we all have ideals or hopes and it is normal.. but try and fnd something positive and focus on that instead of putting yourself through so much emotionally.
Good luck to you!!
