Do you think gender disappointment is a genuine grief?

I feel you. I was so hoping for a girl for my no3. And when I found out that he's a boy, I was genuinely disappointed. When I shared my feelings with my family members, I got told off! Almost all of them said that I have to stop thinking that way cos my son will 'feel' it and know that he is not wanted. So I kinda felt abit guilty for doing that. It was an internal struggle that I had for the next month or so but I kept reminding myself not to feel disappointed and to learn to love my boy. :) I love my son to bits now cos he's just the cutest.

For no.1 I was hoping for a boy but turned out is a girl and for no.3 I wish to have a girl but turned out is a boy. Yes I did have a bit of disappointment but I get over the feelings quite fast and I accept the gender fact. Most importantly is I can have a healthy baby and gender is not really a matter for me.

Yes :( during holidays like hari raya, I usually notice that couples are initially okay with the gender of their baby but when other parties start meddling and running their mouths about "why can't you get a girl?", "another girl?" -- that's when the stress and disappointment sets in.
