Awww does your hubby really want a girl?

My OH would have been the opposite if they had said the baby had a ninny i'm not sure how he would have taken it...

 

[Manda&Thomas]

yep he wants his first born to be a girl so she can be daddys little princess as hes worried if the first is a boy and the second a girl he wont have asmuch time to bond with her if hes taking the son out to do "mens things" lol
plus he really wants to do the room out in disney princess

[Emma58]

That's sweet.

My OH would have been freaked out. If we had a girl he had already decided 'she' would not be having boyfriends, wearing make up etc!!!

I just hope the sonographer was right in saying i was having a boy LOL!

 

[Babylicious]

awww thats great

That's exactly why my oh was against having a girl, in case she was like I was growing up....
Don't know what he means I never kissed boys, drank, smoke and worried my parents in the slightest not too mention wearing make up, staying out til all hours and generally being a sulky little madam!!

 

[debecca]

My DH wants a girl too, which I thought was a bit strange but it seems he's not alone...

I genuinely have no preference as long as the baby is OK

 

[Manda&Thomas]

lol men funny creatures
being a mare when younger is all part of being a girl though
same as boys will always get into fights and arrested its part of growing up i think anyways
im really not to bothered aslong as it doesnt have extra arms/legs/heads im happy i would like a girl as my sister has 2 boys would be nice to even it out a bit

[muppetmummy]

Glad the appointment went well

I thought the old wifes tale was galloping horse=girl, train=boy?

My OH wants a boy, I must admit I'd be a bit worried about raising a girl cos I remember what a complete nightmare I was as a teenager. Complete teen from hell!

All my friends who have one of each say the girls are harder work!
Getting to play with barbies and playing with a daughters hair, and dressing her in cute clothes would be nice though

You'd be suprised. My husband would have loved a girl, but he was so in utter and complete awe seeing the baby on the screen that he didn't care when it was a boy. I think your 20 week scan is absolutely amazing, the detail is awesome. They even showed me the babies lips!! Just as long as baby is healthy, the sex is entirely irrelevant.

 

[littlepip]

Thats exactly what i was thinking!! under 140bhp means BOOOY!!! Glad everyhting went well!!

[Sophie1102]

Yep sorry Manda - my baby has heartbeat of 122 and as you know is a boy

Have you posted a pic of you tummy again yet? I'll be putting mine on tomorrow x x

 

[Manda&Thomas]

il do some new pics on monday
manda xx

 

[GBLiz]

manda, EVERYONE said mine was a boy, and my OH said the same thing, that he'd push it back in if it wasnt a boy!!

but ours is a girl and i was relieved to see he got excited about having a little princess as soon as we found out.

he'll be happy with whatever you get...and so will you im sure
