Alissa From Quora

"I’m having a boy and I’m not happy about it. What should I do?

I felt exactly the same way when I was pregnant with my son. I was extremely upset for months thinking of hypothetical things having a son would possibly mean (i. e. high car insurance premium, forgetting my birthday, forsaking his family for his future wife). I did not cope well, and can you believe some self righteous, arrogant relatives actually shamed me for it? That is quite an unproductive thing to do, so I will not do the same to you.

My advice to you for the time being is just to concentrate on having a healthy pregnancy, take prenatal vitamins, keep up with your prenatal care and try to avoid becoming sick. A baby boy is very attached and loving toward his mother when he is small. If you try again for another child, perhaps consider going to one of those specialty IVF clinics to guarantee a girl. I wish you all the best!"

Do most women feel this way?

I'm okay with a child from the Opposite Sex

I'm not okay because I wanted a daughter.

What about the children's feelings and emotional well-being? Di we consider that?

[Smashingdoozy]

I don't care what gender my future children will be.
I don't understand how anyone could be unhappy with having a child of the opposite gender and these reasons are terrifying. Forgetting birthday? Forsaking family? These are behaviours that are taught or are a result of bad parenting.

Yeah, of course. Ideally I'd have 2 kids one of each gender

[Asker]

The problem is boys aged 8-12 think Mother's don't want them. And feel that girls and women don't accept them. Because of their sex and gender. So That needs to be fixed.

[avery58]

I never heard that before

[avery58]

If anything I heard about most boys being momma's boys

[Asker]

Well that's unfortunate, because two kids were walking home from school the other day. And one the bus home they were talking about it. On the bus Stop home wherever they were going. You over hear many conversations when you ride community transport.

[Asker]

Public transport conversations aren't private they're open. And one hears everything from personal lives to business transactions. You hear everything. Especially when riding the bus, train , subway or shuttles.

The world has crazies in it. It's generally best not to pay them too much attention.

[Masticophis80]

I'd love to have a daughter.

I just want my future child to be healthy.
