Honestly did not expect this video to do as well as it did (for my channel), and since I’m receiving some pretty negative comments I figured I’d pin one for people to read since I clearly didn’t get my message across well in the video.. I am not ungrateful or unhappy that I am having a boy. The thumbnail isn’t my feelings, hence the question mark at the end. Gender disappointment is NORMAL, and it’s incredibly rude to try and make someone feel bad for expressing these feelings. Just reading through the comments can confirm that there are many people who experienced gender disappointment, but that does not mean we don’t love our children exactly how they are. I’m absolutely thrilled to be having another boy, but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t a little bit disappointed in the beginning. I envisioned something for myself that didn’t end up being the case and I just had to work through those emotions, which I did very quickly. It’s insulting to say I’m not grateful for this pregnancy and this baby boy, I lost 2 baby’s and changed doctors multiple times to figure out what was wrong, took meds to ensure my body would keep this pregnancy and I’m so relieved and excited every single day that I get to experience this again. This is my rainbow baby and I love him regardless of his gender, but there are differences when raising a boy vs a girl and some people just hoped for one over the other. What we’re NOT going to do on this channel is shame women for experiencing a very normal emotion, one that already leaves a lot of guilt. Good day 🤗
Journey With Jax no judgement here! With my oldest, I had always always wanted a boy for my first baby. So when my husband and I found out I was pregnant, he had a dream that we were having a girl. I was upset and didn’t want a girl. I swore he was right too because he had dreamed I was pregnant in the first place so when I started getting sick, he just looked at me and said randomly that I could be pregnant. So I was so upset that I “most likely” wasn’t going to have a boy. But we would have random conversations about how he would be “if we had a girl”. So after a while, I started getting used to the idea that we were having a girl. So when we finally found out at 20 weeks for sure that we were having a boy, I freaked out. 😂I kept on saying “omg, I can’t be having a boy, I don’t know anything about boys”! But needless to say, I love my little boy, and now his little brother and sister
Don’t mind them, gender disappointment is normal!!!! Thank you for your honesty!
You’re not a hypocrite for saying teens shouldn’t try to get pregnant. You grew and became mature enough to realize that that’s not the best decision.
You have the softest voice, it’s so nice to listen to.
Yesss🤣
Haha you think so?? Thank you 😂❤️
LITERALLY. i would listen to podcasts, it’s soooo soothing
i’m 16 & i have an 8 month old daughter and i could not IMAGINE trying for a baby 😅 it is extremely difficult, trying to have a stable income, finishing school, etc. i stay at home w my daughter and do school from home while babysitting 4+ days a week for money to provide for her and it is the hardest thing i have ever done. if anyone reading this wants a baby at a young age, please wait. please live out your life and wait until you can give your child the most stable life as possible. && being a teen mom people always assume you just make your parents take care of the baby and so i feel like i have to over compensate and i never ever let anyone watch her and i’m EXHAUSTED, a clingy 8 month old daughter that is breastfeeding leaves the only time to do school is when she’s asleep. don’t know where i’m going with this. but please wait. thanks for coming to my ted talk.
You're doing an amazing job, good on you for prioritizing your daughter's needs and giving her the best life you possibly can!
You are seriously so mature for only being 19. I was also a young mother, first son at 19, 2nd at 21, and 3rd at 24 so I get it! I have all boys and thought one was a girl, nope 😂😂
michelle kriston first person I read who has been pregnant the same age I have been only this time around I’m having a boy for my 3rd bby
ok, but can we just talk about how GORGEOUS megan is?! like, really you’re so pretty!
I had gender disappointment when I was pregnant with my daughter. I wanted another boy so bad. I was absolute disconnected from my pregnancy with her but as soon as she was born I absolutely fell in love. I actually now feel guilty for not wanting a daughter because she’s absolutely perfect and I should’ve never felt that way. Your baby is perfect and with time everything will get better.
I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant with my second child and from the time I found out I was pregnant I just had this gut feeling it was a girl but I really wanted another boy. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't shake the feeling that it was a girl, I even kept having dreams it was a girl. (when I was pregnant with my first I "knew" from the beginning he was a boy and also had dreams starting as early as 6wks of holding a baby boy) so I was feeling pretty unconnected to my pregnancy/my baby this time around because I really wanted another boy..which then I felt guilty for feeling that way. We found out at our 20wk ultrasound that it actually looks like we are having another boy and I really only started getting excited about this pregnancy after that.. (although sometimes I still feel like maybe the ultrasound tech was wrong and it rly is a girl lol) I know if it had been/or turns out to be a girl I will still love her with all my heart but I'm hoping they were right that its a boy!
@@lauraluvsyou4958 sometimes dreams reflect our fears, not reality.
We always want the opposite sex don't we😆. Just like we want curly hair when we want straight.
Metzgar I am pregnant at the moment and should find out later today or tomorrow what I’m having, And hoping SO bad for a girl and my husband and I have both even had dreams that it was a girl, but I guess we’ll have to wait and see. I know that if they say it’s a boy I’ll be disappointed and thats totally ok. There is nothing wrong with being disappointed, since I know I’d love my son anyways. (Lowkey still hoping for a girl though 😆).
@@MaayanLovesUnicorns1 I'll be curious now😁. So post again later and let us know!!!
Finally! Someone being honest about gender disappointment! Doesn't mean you'll love him any less. You go girl for being honest about a touchy subject in front of thousands of jydgy beings.
Once baby #2 is born, will you be changing the name of the channel?
Tianna Milton most likely not!
Omg, Journey would be such a cool name for a little boy though 😎 Jax and Journey. And the nickname would be pronounced like “Jer” as in “Jeremy”
Girl, why you looking so fine? The hair, makeup, pregnancy glow? Who cares, I’m loving it!
I tried getting pregnant at 16 too, but didn’t end up getting pregnant until 4 months after I turned 17 and I feel the exact same way. Now I am so against teens ttc (17 or under) once you’re 18 you’re an adult and your choice. But under 18 is just dumb lol like you said I was dumb and naive but I don’t regret it!
Megan you are looking beautiful :)
Thank you so much!

I don’t know how you only have 31k followers, you’re one of my favorites to watch ❣️
I also was a teen mom i have 5 boys no girls lol i would have loved to have had a girl but would never ever change it for the world i have 5 body guards 5 best friends my boys are my world im glad to be a mom of all boys
Having sons is awesome! They protect and provide for you and totally make the best body guards! 😄 I got 3 brothers and no one's messing with me or my mum when they're around lol! Hope I have only sons when I'm a mother one day
I was a teen mum and am also mum to 5 boys pregnant with my 6th and last baby a girl. Only had gender disappointment with my 3rd son.
I didn’t find out my second baby’s gender specifically to avoid gender disappointment. 10/10 would recommend. I didn’t spend a ton of money on gender specific things. It really helped motivate me during labor. I was shook when they laid my baby on my chest and said “it’s a girl”. Soo fun!
Girl your will power of not wanting to know I envy😂 I'm almost 7 weeks pregnant with my first and I already want to know the gender
Alexandra Craddock 😂 I was the same the first time.
@@Znash888 lol I think I'm gonna be like this everytime😂😂 I'm such a planner🤦🏻♀️
This is what I’m going to be doing if/when I ever have a third. I think the gender disappointment is going to be really hard on me if I find out I’d be having a third boy. Seeing their face & falling in love with your baby before you even know I’ve heard makes it a lot easier.
Alexandra Craddock nothing wrong with that! That’s the beauty of motherhood. There’s no real right or wrong way to do it. As long as they’re happy and well cared for. 🥰
I’m so excited for this video and the next baby!! I also experienced gender disappointment. I was strongly hoping for a boy and i thought we were going to have a boy, but I found out it was a girl and cried. I didn’t feel like I was the right person to raise a girl, at least not as my first. But 5 weeks later here I am excited for her and ready to meet her.
Kaya Tremblay i completely understand that. I wanted a boy so bad to be my first. Well i had a girl and shes now 3 years old. Definitely the light of my life. Now im pregnant with a baby boy and couldnt be happier. Always wanted one of each
Kelly Schwartzkopf congratulations on baby #2! Yea my husband and I would like 4, so I’m sure we would probably eventually have a boy, but gender disappointment is so real! I felt so guilty about it, but I love her already and know I am going to love her so much more!
I completely understand. I was disappointed for a little bit but got excited when i seen all the cute girl clothes. I wasnt to disappointed since i wanted one of each just wanted the boy first lol
I should really be doing my social studies homework, but this is a whole heck of a lot more interesting than primary sources from the Renaissance
Elena Gibbons Relateable af
i love your videos so much! and im so glad you are feeling better!
I know so many teen girls in my state NC that are getting pregnant on purpose and just expecting their parents to take care of the child. It’s so ridiculous. Obviously I don’t down teen moms at all! But you just don’t intentionally get pregnant at 15 with no job or means to take care of a baby. Also teen moms around here want baby’s so bad that they just screw a dude and then get pregnant and don’t tell him and wild just rather not have a father for the child. They brag because their “baby daddy” ain’t in their life and they are doing good without him BUT the whole time it’s their parents taking care of the baby. It’s just urkin so I completely agree with you!!!!!👏👏👏
Cassy Delynne i also live in NC
I love you so much Megan and your just an absolute inspiration
I was hoping for a girl but having a boy. As much as i would never get pregnant if i wouldn’t be happy either way, i totally think it’s normal to have those little moments of mourning what you’re NOT having, it doesn’t change loving what you do have!
Your gonna be such a great mom 😍😍😍 I love your little family sooo much even though I’m just a subscriber!!! I hope you are doing good. Great video!!! ❤️❤️❤️
First like and first comment 🤗
Cassy Delynne no you were sixth
@@honeycoves3707 I thought I was first. Anyways did you go through this whole comment section just go prove me wrong 😂😂😂
I got pregnant at 15 with my first, I’m now 17 and just found out I’m having baby number 2. I believe having my daughter so young has made me more mature and to mention way happier. So glad yous got your rainbow baby, congrats!❤️
One of my fav teen mom I love watching you and Alex you always make me laugh and I love your friendship because it is never boring...love your channel and instagram....and your fam❤❤❤
Happy 100th video x
you are so mature for your age. I appreciate the honesty in all your answers. Keep up the good work mama~~(:
Im not pregnant and won't be in the near future, but since Im a kid I want to have little girl, but on the other hand I have this strong feeling, that Im definetly will get a boy. 😂
A family friend of mine went through the whole pregnancy with ultrasound techs, etc telling her she was having a girl. They did the room pink, bought girl clothes, everything pink. The second the baby was born, the doctor said she had a boy. She literally went into shock mode, 😛😛
Same thing happened to my friend!
I'm literally so scared this might happen to me! I'm 26wks pregnant with baby #2 and the ultrasound tech said it looks like we are having another boy, so I haven't bought any new baby clothes because I still have all my sons baby clothes that he no longer fits into. I'm worried because I felt so sure it was a girl before that ultrasound, (even though I was hoping for another boy, I just felt so strongly that it was a girl and been having dreams that its a girl, I had dreams of having a boy when I was pregnant with my first baby and it turned out true with him.) also when I look at the ultrasound photos I think in some of the photos it looks like girl parts and in other pics it looks like boy parts. I don't think I'll fully believe this baby is a boy until hes born and I see for myself! loll
I’m glad our nursery will be a bit gender neutral with some pink or blue accents.. but omg, I hope that doesn’t happen to us! I’m ready to buy a bunch of clothes!
my mother’s hospital wouldn’t tell her my brother’s gender when she was pregnant because they had gotten sued for telling another couple the wrong gender!
Chey Joyce my uncles ex wife (they have two boys) was told she was having a girl for their second and they knew it was her last. She really wanted a girl and she was so excited, she went and bought pink everything. When he was born she was so sad about having so much girly stuff. A few months later my mom got pregnant with me and the doctors thought I was a girl but weren’t confident so my parents got gender neutral everything. When they had a girl, I got all the cute pink clothes and girly things. Lesson here is to buy gender neutral stuff too because doctors can be wrong. My uncles ex was lucky, she already had boy clothes from her then 18 month old.
This video makes me love you even more 😋 you seem like such a down to earth, easy going person! Thanks for always keeping it real!
The short hair looks sooo good on you!
you are absolutely not a hypocrite!! That is called learning and growing :) Xo
I totally feel you on the gender disappointment! I was convinced that baby number 4 was a girl & I even made the huge mistake of telling my 11 year old daughter that I was pretty sure that it was a girl. We went out & bought some girl outfits & discussed names! Before this baby, we’d never found out the gender before birth, but since this was a surprise pregnancy & our other kids were older, they convinced us that they couldn’t wait 40 weeks to know. At our 20 week scan, we asked the technician to write down the gender in a sealed envelope. I took the envelope to a bakery & they baked us a cake with the interior frosting dyed either blue or pink consistent with the gender. A few days later we went out to a nice restaurant, ate dinner & then cut the cake. When she saw the blue frosting on the inside of the cake my daughter LOST IT! She started bawling & saying how she didn’t want 3 brothers, she didn’t want to be the only girl, that she wanted a baby sister like I said it was going to be - it was absolutely awful! In fact I could tell that we were all disappointed to be having another boy. I know I definitely was & I felt extremely guilty about feeling that way! I conceived extremely easily, our baby was strong & healthy yet alI I wanted so badly was for there to have been some mistake! I research everything & this was no different, so I looked up percentages of error on ultrasound when it came to gender & just gender disappointment in general. I found so many moms on pregnancy groups online that had gone through what I was feeling & virtually all of them had given birth & immediately fallen in love with their little one, regardless of the sex! That made me feel a lot better! When I came to terms with my emotions, admitted they were there, validated them, that’s when it seems that I started to feel less mournful that I wasn’t getting another daughter. Our son, Cassius, was born on 6/1/18 & he is the spitting image of my daughter, down to the hazel eyes & dimple in one cheek! Just as I expected, we all fell in love with him immediately & now we can’t imagine our family without him in it!
I have 3 little brothers too and I'm the only girl. When my third bro was born, I was so upset cause I wanted a sister just like your daughter.
Now that we're all nearly adults, I'm soooo glad I have only bros cause it means that I always got my own room after puberty while my bros always shared, I never had to share my things or have hand-me-downs, and best of all I got 3 protectors for life! No one's messing with a girl who got brothers lol! I love being the only girl and I wouldn't change it for anything 😁😁😁
Awh I love you Megan! You’re so real and down to earth!
Oh I don't give a damn I had severe gender disappointment with my 2nd and what I thought my final baby. I was so sure I was having a girl, willing it as hard as possible, I painted the room and bought bedding, decorations and everything for a girl. I was in a crazy episode of delirium thinking no way I could have another boy. I wanted a boy with my first baby and was thrilled, he's gorgeous and a genius and 19 now. So I go to my ultrasound and find out it's a boy, I was pissed like crazy rage pissed I kicked the door open on the way out and crumpled to the floor and cried the whole day. I came to sanity and finally settled into the fact and as soon as I saw that baby I was head over heels and any thought of that disappointment made me feel insane because I loved this baby more than anything. This child literally brought sunshine into my household. This baby never cried, ever. He refused a binky, he could launch it across a room and would just always be smiling. He never needing soothing, he never needed a blanky or stuffed animal he was just literally like a light everywhere he went. He attracts people like gravity, makes friends wherever he is and has brought more joy than I thought possible. My first son read at 3, he was quiet, intelligent, loved being clean and didn't like messes (he is me in a boys body) and this is just my boys and how different and wonderful they both are. One cautious and studious and almost too perfect with his big blue eyes and intelligence beyond his years and my other now almost 15 is joy personified, hilarious and makes my darkest days sun filled. He can make me laugh when no-one else can. I can't believe there was a time I ever felt that way about his sex, but it happened and it went away and he is so stunningly gorgeous and amazing I'm so grateful he is mine. No more babies planned for me and 6 years go by and I have zero plans on any children. I finished school, started my career in pediatric dentistry, and started planning on travel and just settling into turning 30. Bam out of nowhere I stop for a pregnancy test on the way home from work, I wasn't late yet and it was just over something weird that happened at work that day. It was all over something one of the doctors at our practice had said to me earlier that day. I told her my husband had wanted another child, wanted a daughter but I was in the absolutely no part of my life and planning our future. Like something from a movie she puts her hands on my stomach and says oh your husband is getting his girl. I laughed my ass off at her, saying it would be impossible it was never gonna happen. Not only do I not get pregnant easily but I had told him recently I was shutting up shop and said the only way there would be one more is if you somehow got me pregnant before I turned 30. I had just turned 29 in January and it was about a week to Valentine's and just from that weird interaction something inside me almost pulled me into the store for a test. So I had a little time before I usually picked up my boys so I stop at Wal-Mart before picking them up from daycare and I'm so sure this is ridiculous I didn't even want to take it home to have anyone see it so I took it straight into their bathroom, classy huh? I sat there laughing at myself in the stall of Wal-Mart as I watched that second line slap me in the face. THIS WITCH DOCTOR HAD PUT A DEMON BABY IN ME, LOL, was my first thought. I couldn't believe what I was seeing and thought back on dates and came to the only conclusion, it was News Years Eve, my husband's birthday and a wild night we didn't even make it in the house for and now here I am finding out in a Wal-Mart bathroom stall I'm pregnant at 29, my husband pulled it off before I turned 30, WTF?? I felt every emotion scared, pissed, happy, terrified, freaked out by how all this came to be and immediately went to the thought of I get to tell my husband this, it's almost Valentine's and we got pregnant on his birthday. I wrapped my test like a present, got a Valentine's card that eluded to something about expectations for our future and I crossed out expectations and wrote expecting to see if he would catch on. When he got home I gave him the card first and he was a total guy and didn't catch on AT ALL, so I hand him the wrapped box and needless to say he finally got it and his happiness immediately made everything more right with me who was still so unsure of how I felt but I wasn't going to let that ruin telling him and letting him have his genuine reaction knowing how happy he would be. Then later it hit, oh my what if it's another boy, oh God could I live this outnumbered in my house by boys, but I remembered back and looked at my wonderful boys and said ok bring it on life whatever will be will be. In September that year my daughter was born, my perfect little mini me and completed my family in a way I didn't know we needed. Gender disappointment is a thing, it's ok, you aren't evil and it's totally not just you. It happens, it's a thing but it will pass and it will be ok. Life knows just what it's throwing at you so just trust in that and enjoy the ride. (Except maybe don't let voodoo witch doctors put hands on your stomach to tell you what your womb is doing, lol, but really that was some freaky shit.)
I love how honest you are. Sure you will probably get hate for that too but dont let it get under the skin, many people lie especially about how it was to be pregnant as a teen and then other teens get an idea to get pregnant because some youtubers make it sound so easy. Stay honest!
You're glowing! 😍😍
I felt that with my second son. Then we got pregnant shortly within the year and was in shock to find out we were having a girl ! I didn't want to believe til she was born cause I didn't want to feel that disappointment again. She most definitely is a beautiful girl.
You're glowing 😍😍
I love your haircut!
I love your honesty. ❤️
I love how real and open you were for this video, definitely subscribed after this since I've been watching some of your videos here and there.
Love ya megan congratulations on baby #2!
This was just a really good, insightful and intelligent video. Learn to appreciate and be proud of the awesome things about yourself, like how smart and articulate you are. Your anxieties don't take that away 😉. (From someone who has been there).
You’re new hair suits you so well I really like it
I had gender disappointment with my second boy. I knew the moment they did the ultrasound it was a boy without them telling me. I cried and still was upset at my gender reveal. Two boys are amazing though!! My boys are 7 month and 19 months. They are a year and a day apart. I love my boys so much. I couldn't picture myself having a girl even though I wanted one.
Hey you got 2 body guards for the future who will protect you if anyone tried to mess with their mum 😂 you've got the jackpot girl with your son's hehehe
I had gender disappointment w my first I wanted a daughter and I got a son. I grew up with all sisters so I had no idea what to do with a boy! I felt no connection to him until he was born and even then those first couple days were weird for me I was also 16 so I wasn’t anywhere ready! But I would change my son for the world now now have 2 daughters and my son is my only one and I am super close with him now
I love your hair shorter looks so good on you
I had a girl first at 19 and now im 20 almost 21 and im gonna be having a boy i was slightly disappointed because i wanted a girl but im happy its boy now.. i really was only disappointed because i dont know much about caring for a boy! Haha love your videos.❤
When/if you have another baby would you ever consider not finding out the gender until birth?
Kristen Couch she said on another comment that’s what she’s planning to do if she has a third baby
I really really wanted a boy and was kinda disappointed when heard it wasn’t a boy, but then I quickly changed my mind. I’m going to be having a little mini me. I get to spoil the shit out of her and dress her sooooo cute!!8 think boy clothes are cuter but it’s going to be so fun doing her hair and stuff! I’m so excited! It’s. Or bad or wrong to want one over the other. But now I can’t imagine not having a girl! I just picture us being brats and telling dad he has to take us to get ice cream 😂😂 my boyfriend is such a tough guy too, gonna be so funny seeing him with a little princess.
I love your videos so much ❤️❤️
You look so good with short hair
So when I found out I was preggers with my oldest daughter the ultrasound tech was so sure she was a boy she asked me at first what I thought she was (I said girl) and she said nope your having a boy! Imagine my surprise when Haleigh came into this world 5 lbs 15 oz and 18 inches long and a week overdue lol
Congratulations on the new blessing prayers for a speedy and safe delivery
We decided not to find out gender since I want a boy so bad, and I know I'll be upset if i am having another girl. A lot of people think I'm crazy. Mostly saying "I could never not know!"
Just be thankful that you are having another baby some people can't have one some can only have one kid and that's it. If that was me and I had 2 boys than a girl I'll still be very thankful for bringing them into the world
was it just the blood test you had for the downs syndrome test? I had the same but it wouldn't have changed things..I just would have wanted to be prepared for any additional needs.
Yes it was just a blood test. And that’s exactly why I did it too.
When you have no say and no choice with the genders it is pointless to get your hopes up and get upset when the baby is not the gender you wanted.... Be happy you have a baby and a healthy baby at that!
I’m literally terrified of having gender disappointment I would feel so bad 😩 I want a girl first, if I had a boy first I would be upset and the thought makes me upset lol
It’s okay! It’s actually a lot more common than people think, it’s just nobody really wants to talk about it cause we don’t want to be seen like we don’t love our children. It only lasted a couple weeks for me and I’m so excited to be having another boy now.
I had the same issues with gender disappointment. But I got over it and love my son. Its perfectly normal 😁💜
My fiance and I got pregnant a second time around (our son was only 3 months old). We knew we wanted our babies to be close in age BUT It was NOT planned. I do remember we dtd a day before I ovulated and (TMI) we were spooning. Just because it was late and sometimes it just happens in the middle of the night lol. So now that I know about the shuffles method, I think it works because we are having a baby girl 💖💕💖💕💗💕💓💕💖
Can you see/feel movement yet??? I’m like a week or 2behind you and I can see and feel movement and I’m concerned that it isn’t normal
Girl don't even feel bad about the gender disappointment thing I originally wanted a boy but then everyone kept saying I was having a girl and I got so excited that when I found out he was a boy I cried ( I blame the extra hormones) but I so understand how you feel
Are you going to be doing a birth vlog? Will the hospital allow it?
I’m pretty sure my hospital allows it, and I do plan on doing a birth vlog this time!
You seem alot more mature for your age honestly i found your channel through alex and i dig your videos keep up the work girlie 😁😁😁
When baby two is born will you be changing the number of this channel?!
Scarlett Emilija she said most likely not
Awww I loved this video !
Ps.smaller RUclipsr
You can try for a third child later on babe don't fret ❤❤❤❤sending love from Singapore
I wanted a boy then girl & luckily that’s what I got (unless she comes out a boy, the ultrasound was very clearly s girl though so I’ll be very surprised 😂) my son is 1 💙 & my daughter is due August 30th 💓
I didn't find out the gender of my baby although I was hoping for a boy. When my baby was born and my husband told me it was a girl I was completely shocked but so overwhelmed and happy. I now love having a daughter and if we are lucky enough to have another I will be completelty fine with having another girl. I always envisioned myself with just boys or one of each but now I think it would be cute to have 2 girls 😊
love the short hairrrr
I hated my daughter as soon i I knew she was a girl! It took me about 3 weeks to fall in love with her (when her tongue tie was fixed and boobing was easier). And NOW I can not be more in love with her if I tried. I wanted a second boy and maybe one girl. It’s hard when you picture what you wanted and not what you got. I’m happy she’s safe though as she was born on the couch at 34 weeks out of no where!
Does Carl still have a super long commute?? Or did he change jobs?
Gwen no, he has a job out here in Vegas :)
*Let me just say I tried absolutly everything to conceive a Girl* Before Conception Timing and even eating things to get a baby girl... I had all the symtoms even chinese calander old wives tales all said girl so my body really tricked me. *now I'm pregnant with a baby boy due april*😇😇👣
Aww bless ya xxxx love you xxxxx
First 😘😘🤗🤗😍😍
You look really nice! Idk if this is creepy, but I think that you look really good!
Your hair is so pretty and can you pick music that has no words because I’m having a hard time hearing you and focusing on your voice
Thank you, and yes I will in the future. It’s hard to put music when I’m editing on my computer cause the sound isn’t ever what its going to be like when it’s uploaded to RUclips. Super frustrating.
Journey With Jax ok understood ❤️
Do you have a nursery theme in mind yet? Also can you do a nursery tour?
Annabel Summy planning on doing a nursery tour for sure, but don’t have a theme yet and haven’t even started on it 😩
i live in the bay area i hear my parents complain about how expensive it is to live here all the time
My boyfriends family does not have girls, there is 1 girl in the last 6 generations, so we were all sure I was having a boy, along with all the old wives tales telling me I was having a boy, so when we found out we were having a girl, I did not believe it at all, even up to when my daughter was born I was scared the ultrasound was wrong and that I was going to give birth and it was going to be a bit after we got all little girl stuff. I didn’t necessarily have gender disappointment, but I was scared the ultrasound wasn’t right lol
You’re not a hypocrite. People grow and mindsets change. I’m 17 & pregnant and it’s definitely matured me a ton, but It’s not something to do on purpose imo. I have a channel if anyone wants to support :)💕
Are you renting or did you buy your house?
Honestly I'm going to be alil upset if I find out we are having a girl. I want another boy.
Danielle Branton that was me. My daughter is 2 months now and I have a 2 year old son. I felt so disconnected to my pregnancy with my daughter but as soon as she was born her gender didn’t matter to me. I mean I was so depressed about having a daughter before she was born. It’s saddening.
@@Metzgar thanks you.. I know I would still love her if I have a girl. I just cant picture myself with a daughter.. lol
Omg you are me right now. My son is 3. I wanted a boy and I wanted another boy when I had another baby. I’m 15 weeks pregnant and I’m completely convinced it’s a girl and I expect and want a girl but it’s probably another boy. Hey you know what I’ll let you know when I find out lol.
So with the gender disappointment it’s ok to feel disappointment, my fist pregnancy i was positive i was having a boy for 20 weeks i was sure i was having a boy, i wasn’t able to go to the doctor early on in my pregnancy thanks to insurance issues, at 20 weeks i found out it was a girl, i was shocked and a little sad but now she’s my mini me. My second pregnancy i also thought it was a boy but nope another girl. I really want a boy but i love my girls i just wasn’t meant to have a boy.
I had my babygirl 3 weeks ago 😊 congrats on your 2nd baby im so happy for you
Sarah Coatney congratulations
I was just going to say that the gender disappointment is normal. It’s ok to get help my mom did need to get wic when she had me.
I’m all about ads for families who make money off of RUclips but the amount of ads on this video was ridiculous
You can always pay for RUclips premium so you never have to watch ads. Otherwise you can skip them after a few seconds, and enjoy RUclips completely for free. Coming from both an avid RUclips watcher & creator I personally don’t see the big deal in having to skip ads if it means creators are paid for their content :)
What do you use to edit for your videos
Just iMovie!
@@meggo thank you!!
Ugh I wish I lived in Nevada. We’d be best friends 😂❤️

Gender disappointment is foolishness. It is much more important that your baby is healthy.
