And this is coming from someone who has two little brothers and tons of male little cousins- I just think they are such strange creatures, lol! Like, why does everything have to be turned into a gun? Why do they need to be so rough and loud? But I do know deep down too that if it is a boy, when I hold him in my arms, I will love him just as fiercely as I would a girl, and even when he's rough and loud, I know I will find him wonderful and adorable. I would probably just need a week to let it sink in after the gender u/s, and to grieve the "loss" of a potential daughter.
Not all boys turn everything in to guns lol It just depends what you allow. Some people have this weird boys will be boys attitude. I don't want my boys to be lumped in with it.
