[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had my heart set on one gender and really thought that’s what we were having. Waited till birth to find out and was happy to have a healthy baby but immediately felt a bit gutted. I figured I was just exhausted, but the feeling still hasn’t gone away. Wondering if this could be PPD? I love my baby, of course. Hate feeling disappointed when I look at it.[/quote] That's what happens when you decide to have a "surprise" (hint: it's always a boy or girl...not a big surprise) and then spend the ensuing months fixating on the gender you just know it is. Now just relax, enjoy the baby, and realize that you did actually want x and not y. It's ok. You'll adjust. Next time find out ahead of time and you have tons of time to go through that before the baby is born. [/quote]
