Does anyone else feel guilty for?

Question

Hi!

Well my beautiful daughter just turned a year old about 2 weeks ago & she is truly the light of my life.

But sometimes I find myself feeling guilty b/c before she was born I really wanted a boy (stupid-I know!) When I found out I was having I girl I cried for like 2 days straight & everyone told me it didn't matter al that matters is that the baby is healthy- of course at the time I said "well duh everyone wants a healthy baby -but I want a BOY!!!!!"

I definitely don't have those same sentiments & now knowing all the unfortunate bad diseases/syndromes that can plague innocent kids I genuinely feel guilty for ever having felt that way

I hope Karma will not play a cruel joke on me *knock on wood* by using my words against me =( & for not taking wishing for a healthy child more serious then wishing for a certain gender

does anyone else ever feel this way?

Answer 1

Is it white? If so, do you know how much it's worth?!?

You're probably young - you can always have more, and the money's nice, too.

Answer 2

It was normal and perfectly fine to have a preference over the s*x of the child you wanted. The important thing is that you are delighted to have had a daughter anyways, so don't feel bad. You sound like a great parent.

Answer 3

It will be alright. You may have felt that way then, but look at how you feel now. It will be easier having a daughter for you. When she gets older, you can talk to her without feeling awkward. You will learn that you are happy with a girl.

Answer 4

no, I got a boy like i wanted

Answer 5

Oh yeah, I think everyone has some basic wishes for gender, hair color, eye color, etc.  Our overall prayer is that the baby is happy, but it's nice to wish for dark, thick, curly hair like dad, and light blue eyes like mom, etc.

Answer 6

WELL.. ITS NORMAL TO FEEL SAD, BUT YOU WILL BE HAPPY SOON BECAUSE YOU WERE THE ONE THAT BROUGHT THAT LITTLE BABY GIRL TO LIFE.. YOU WILL HAVE PLENTY OF OPP.. TO HAVE A BOY SO DON'T WORRY..
