Andrea, I have written an article on this which
may be of help. I have found people linking the article on Specific Gender
forums around Best Regards, From: owner- Sorry for cross posting... I have a client who is due to give birth soon and
she really wants a baby of a particular gender but the ultrasound has
shown the baby to be the opposite. This is much more than being
a little disappointed and it does not appear to have eased over the course
of the pregnancy. She has expressed concerns about how this may potentially
affect her labour. She also expresses enormous guilt over having these
feelings when she already has healthy children, including one of this gender.
She is also concerned about the effects her feelings/thoughts are having and
will have on her baby's development. Assuming the ultrasound is correct, has anyone had
experience of this either as a mother or care provider? Any words of wisdom? Thanks, Andrea Bilcliff |
