I honestly don't get the wishing for a certain gender, we have 2 of the same. I never once thought about what gender "I wanted" I wanted a healthy baby. I've seen far too many people go through heartache while pregnant to worry about what gender my baby was.
Funnily enough, we did find out what both of ours were, the second time around we had to, there was an issue found at 20 weeks, and if the baby was the other gender it would have been devastating news, with the gender it was, this meant it was a much less serious condition.
We didn't tell anyone, but the number of people who said to me "bet you're hoping for Y cause you have X at home" was unreal, and I wanted to punch every one of them in the face for being insensitive pricks.
