My husband and I are expecting our first baby and just found out we’re having a girl. I am talking with a coworker who is also pregnant and having a girl, as well.
Me: “We just found out we’re having a girl!”
Coworker: “And you’re happy about that? You didn’t want a boy first?”
Me: “Not really. I’d be happy either way, but I am really excited to be having a girl.”
Coworker: “Is your husband disappointed?”
Me: “Uh, no. He’s thrilled. He was actually really hoping for a girl; he’s probably more excited than I am.”
She didn’t say much after that but I got the impression she wasn’t happy about having a girl.
