Husband so negative regarding baby gender

I am expecting baby #3. 2 sweet girls at home needless to say my husband is hoping for a boy. We had our NT scan this afternoon and the tech said she couldn't see anything obvious.  I know it is still very early to tell so I wasn't surprised by this however hubby instantly got an annoyed look on his face and makes the comment of I already know it's a girl. His reaction already when we don't even know yet has completely made me dread finding out the sex. I know if we are in fact having another girl he will be so negative about it and ruin the rest of my pregnancy for me. Has anyone else dealt with a similar situation and if so how did you deal?

He should be happy that you are having his precious children.. You should be very happy and he shouldn't take that away from you... He needs to stop acting like a King Henry

I know he will come around as soon as baby is here and he loves our girls more than anything but he was the same way when I was expecting our 2nd child. Probably doesn't help that EVERYONE loves to tease him and congratulate his on his 3rd girl.

my sister has three daughters and her husband is very happy with that . . . tell your husband that he is the only one who responsible for the baby gender identity . . if it`s a boy or a girl . . it comes from the man from the beginning

I haven't dealt with this, but can tell you genetically it's his speed that determines the gender, it has nothing to do with our bodies. He needs to be happy with what you two have created together. My dad had 4 daughters...I was the tomboy...helping him work on things in the house, cars etc....tell him to not be dissappointed, one of his children he will be able to do all these boy things with....
