[ Original Post ]

I am almost 7 weeks along with our first.This was not exactly planned and yet not prevented.I am really looking forward to being a parent now that I am pregnant.The other day my boyfriend came in and said that if this baby is a girl it won't be his daughter!He only wants a boy.I was totally shocked and said'WHAT?" and he repeated it.So I stormed around the house muttering "I guess I should dump you now and you'll never know what it is...."Has anyone else has their man say these kinds of things then change their mind or not really mean it?Now I am not even sure how I feel about him.He is thrilled that I am pregnant however claims it can only be a boy.Don't understand him.I've had enough concerns right now anyway and am just trying to get through the first 12 weeks.I had a miscarriage in November and am very concerned that I may lose this baby also,do I need to worry about his reaction if it is a girl too?He treats me really good and loves me with his whole heart.He is completely dedicated to me and what I need and want.He lays on the bed at night and lifts up my shirt and talks to "baby",but it always makes me laugh to see him talking to my belly.... :)haha ↓

What kind of heart can he possibly have saying something to you like that??!! This oughtta knock him back down a peg or two,tell him that it is THE MAN who determines the babies sex,NOT the mother!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (scientifically this is true)!!!!!!
What does he have several boys already and that's why he thinks he can only make boys or something? He has ALOT to learn!!!! I hope it IS a GIRL!!!!!!!!! ↑

No,funny as it is he doesn't have any kids yet! I said the same thing about hoping it was a girl!(but I really don't care,just want a healthy baby) ↑

If I were you I would not break up with him he may change his mind but I would decline to find out what it is I really do belive he might jump the gun and run if he finds out it's a girl while your still carrying the baby but if you wait and have him in the room at birth I don't think he give it another thought if it's a girl or boy he'll see that wonderful baby and fall in love ↑

sometimes men are silly and they don't say things right , tell him he hurt your feelings and that you made this baby together and its going to be what its going to be. My husband never came out and said it exactly when I got pregnant but he always wished for a little boy , it was just a running joke between us , I didn't get it ethier I found out from his mom he was simply terrified of having a girl he literally told her I don't know what to do with a girl. He was very loveing to me and the baby , but it wasn't until like week 30 when i got close to my second ultersound and we were about to find out what it was that he relented and realized it could very well be a girl and came to terms with that. Needless to say it was a boy , but honestly it didn't matter you should of seen his face when he saw that baby on the ultersound we did a 3-d so very life like he literally fell in love with his baby at that moment they could of said it was a girl and i really don't think it would of mattered , though he did ask for the penis picture and proudly showed that to his buddies LOL afte the fact. Just wait until he hears that heartbeat and sees that baby for the first time he most likely will change. ↑
