I've been struggling with depression and gender disappointment for two years now. Despite loving my son dearly, I yearned for a daughter. At 44, with my husband not wanting more children, I'm finding it challenging to cope and move forward. My heart and mind are still adjusting to this unexpected path.Honestly, I'm struggling to accept our family dynamics. Two years ago, I welcomed another precious son, but my heart longed for a daughter. I had saved some of my barbies and dolls and princess books.Loving him unconditionally, yet grieving the loss of that daughter dream. Now, at 44, with my husband complete, I'm grappling to find closure.

I'm so sorry mama, it can be so hard sometimes 😔 I hope you have some good friends or family members that you can talk with and get support from ❤ I have found that sometimes surrounding yourself with other boy moms can help too. I think sometimes the hardest part is that people shame talking about this topic, and think that just because someone has some disappointed feelings that it means that we don't love our children, which is NOT AT ALL the case. Finding people we can have those conversations with and not feel judged has really helped me and I hope you are able to find this to hopefully gain some peace with letting some of those feelings out. Feeling heard without judgment can be so freeing. I personally haven't been to a therapist, but if you don't have close family or friends, then that could be a safe space as well. Sending lots of love your way mama!

I’m 2 years into trying to get pregnant with 2 losses. I tried again this month & just trying to wait and see if it worked. I’m only about 6-7dpo but am having some symptoms I think but it could also just be my period. I hoping for the best. I don’t have anyone to share this with right now so I’m watching all the BFP videos to make me feel like I have someone to go through this with me lol . Congrats on your pregnancy ❤.

Pregnant with my 3rd boy… everything you said I feel… I’m getting my tubes tied next year for sure… I only got a NIPT b/c I knew i would need time. With my 2nd I waited until he was born b/c oh who can be disappointed with a healthy baby?! Yea I knew this time would be different. I’m not even excited to tell ppl about this. I’m glad I could quietly see the results of this NIPT alone. I feel bad because I’m just going to let my partner name him. I don’t even care. I honestly didn’t even think about a baby girl b/c I have no luck… things never go in my favor. Having all these boys revealed a lot of deep trauma I have. I know nothing about boys either. I’ll never be a maternal grandmother or mother of the bride. The daughter in law and granddaughter stuff isn’t the same… If they’re half decent men they’ll go off and do their own thing and I’ll be left alone. On top of other societal issues having 3 blk sons comes with.

Having a specific gender is NEVER a 50%-50%. Men produce more and better quality of a specific gender. Pregnant with my first and it's a boy. We've decided to start saving for IVF to not end up praying for a girl (which we BOTH wanted very much).

I have been trying for years and every month I stress the two week wait. I know it will happen hopefully in 3 months of trying because I am diabetic and it very hard to get pregnant if you don’t have your sugar under control so I finally got my sugar under control and have been working very hard. My fist month did not get pregnant and I was really sad. So I have faith and hope I can get pregnant next month

Not even 1. I’m not excited at all and I’m not connected with this pregnancy. It’s not good and it scares me. Like you, I’m very girly. I’ve never been into any sports or anything like that. I don’t like getting dirty and rough housing. I have had such a hard time accepting it. Thanks for sharing this video.

I felt this to the core. We just found out we are having our 4th boy. Our last baby, and I know now I will never be able to hear "it's a girl". I don't wanna be the tough mom with all boys. I want to be girl sometimes, I want to go have tea parties, I want my husband to go on father daughter dances. We will never get that chance. I cried so much and I will always have a little piece of me that feels a little lonely. I love my boys, but I grew up with 4 boys and never had that girl talk or girl time not even with my mother. I wanted a chance to finally have that. I always hear "your grand babies will be girls." I reply. "It's not the same" and it isn't because their mothers need to bond with those girls. I felt distant with my last 2 pregnancies. I had plans with my last baby being a girl. It will now never happen. 😢😢😢.

I’m here years after this was posted, a few months into trying. Thank you for sharing your story. To everyone comparing your journey to hers, just stop it. Just because some have a much harder time getting pregnant doesn’t mean the feelings of those who are early in the journey are any less valid! It’s not a competition. Of course someone trying to get pregnant feels disappointed when they get a negative test, and may have some worries. She didn’t say she was struggling with infertility, ran to the doctor, etc. she just said how she felt, that’s not something anyone else can invalidate!

None. There was no bleeding or fluid loss, therefore no concerns. At one point I thought there was fluid loss (can’t remember which week it was 3 years ago now) so my midwife did a test to be sure there was no amniotic fluid leaking. There was not. If you are concerned about bleeding or fluid leak at all I would ask your OBGYN or midwife to check for you.

My third boy is a year and a half and I still cry about the daughter I don't have. It feels deep, aching, soul crushing. She was so real to me in my heart that it feels like someone died, knowing she'll never be. I sob whenever neighbors, family, and friends have girls. We have all nieces and no nephews...I can't help but wonder why everyone else got beautiful girls but I didn't. I wish above all else that I could have experienced the feeling of being told "it's a girl"! A joy I'll never know. I wish people understood that if we could choose to feel differently, all of us with gender disappointment would. I hope you're feeling better, all these years later 💗
