Jamie Otis Instagram – I heard people were trying to “shame” me for my “bad” reaction to having two boys…But these baby boys have our hearts!💙💙
I’m still blown away with this pregnancy & the BLESSINGS thatve been poured down on us.🙏🥹 I really do believe “ask and you shall receive” … it may not be in your timing, but if you believe, you will receive.🙏🤰🙏
Henley was definitely a little sad there wasn’t a girl in my belly at first.😌 She wanted a baby sister so badly and there’s no shame in having a bit of gender shock – it happens, it’s normal, and it’s ok💯it doesn’t mean she will love them any less!
I mean look at her, she is already over it and saying things like “Hendrix, guess what!! We will both have a baby so we don’t have to share!!!” she talks about them at school and is constantly talking to them through my belly.🥹
Hendrix wanted boys all along so he’s happy as a clam!😜
Doug and I just wanted them to be HEALTHY and STICK so we didn’t lose them first and foremost!💯 But if I’m being completely honest I also envisioned being more of a girl mom. I assumed for sure there was at least one girl in there🤔
I think it’s wrong to try shaming women (or men!) for having initial gender shock….but people do it all the time.🙄
Im just very girly and always assumed I’d have girls. I always longed for a close “mother-daughter” relationship that I didn’t get to have with my mom so I’ve wanted that with my own daughters
I never had a father-daughter relationship either though. My “father figures” would be in jail and come and go throughout my childhood. A friend said to me “Maybe these little boys were sent down from heaven by their big brother in heaven & God to give you some more positive male relationships in your life.”🙏🥹🙏
I don’t know why God chose to bless us with identical twin boys, but I have no doubt they’re meant to be in our family and I’m so excited to get to be their mommy. Heck, we are ALL EXCITED to get to have them in our family!🙏☺️🙏☺️
Anyone else have gender shock or disappointment w a pregnancy and felt “wrong” for it??? 🤷🏼♀️ | Posted on 05/May/2024 03:36:42
