Bad Mom

I cried for a hr after I found out I'm having another boy now I'm sad bc I feel like I was wrong for even crying. I'm sure it's just hormones but I feel like such a bad mother right now

You're not a bad mum, your hormones are raging and its perfectly normal, I had my heart set on a boy as I already have a little girl and I cried but after onlya few days I was over the moon again x

I was upset about pregnancy in general... still a bit confused at 7 weeks. But I'll love my baby no matter what. And I'm sure this won't make you love your little man any less. You are not a bad mommy. You got this.

Don't feel bad.  I cried when I found out we were having our 3rd and 4th boys.  It is just the hormones and you are absolutely entitled to feel sad.  Wait a few days and then go shopping for boy things and pick out boy names.  You'll start bonding with your little boy and you'll love him so much when he's here.  I could not imagine our family without all 4 of our boys!  I know God gave me 4 boys for a reason.  Congrats to you!

It happens. As long as you still love your baby then your not a bad mom. Some women just have their heart set on something and then when it doesn't happen it stinks. When I found out I was having another boy I was slightly upset but still stayed happy but my SIL on the other hand has 3 daughters her last two are twins when she found out they were girls she cried forever and was so upset. When she found out I was having my second boy she was so jealous. In the end as long as your baby is healthy. But yes at first its normal to get upset.
