This is my first baby having a girl. I found out when I was 26 weeks and my husband reaction has was very different them I expected . Everyone prefer it to be boy first in Pakistan thought he might be disappointed . But he was on top of the world to have his little girl, he is the one that picked out the name before I came to USA he bought outfit for the baby.
Re: Reaction of ur spouse and family on finding out the gender of ur baby
Mashallah, so happy for you. i have 2 girls and my husband is also very proud of the girls. he agrees that girls are also very important. the most special person in our husbands lives and the one he loves the most is a female> their mother! girls are special… but unfortunately in some cultures this is not the fact. they put boys above girls…

No one really cared about what I was having. Except me. There was no joy this way or that, no grief either.
Re: Reaction of ur spouse and family on finding out the gender of ur baby
Congrats on the girl! I’m having a girl as well inshallah :). My husband is against the whole I want a boy first thing etc, says its from Allah we should be happy. In my first pregnancy he kept saying I’m having a girl. This time he didnt want to say anything because we were too focused on keeping the baby safe after what happened in my first pregnancy, but I kept telling him its a girl. He even picked out the name (even though the name was my idea originally 
) mashallah. Funny enough every time I mentioned names with him this time he kept telling me girl names. Anyways he’s excited alhmd.
My family is excited as well and everyone else they can say whatever they want. I’m happy alhmdullilah that Allah is blessing me with a healthy baby.

We didn’t find out till he was born…my mom had bet on a boy…actually everyone was saying its gonna be a boy…so I was expecting a girl…but I was very happy to have my little munchkin placed in my arms.
My hubby didn’t have a preference…

I am sorry, why was that?
Reaction of ur spouse and family on finding out the gender of ur baby
On my husbands side and on my side there are only boys. So everyone really wanted a girl. Even my husband kept saying I want a girl. To me it didn’t matter as long as my baby was healthy, that was my only prayer. We didn’t find out what we were having, and when the baby was born people thought we were joking that it was a boy (they thought we were trying to trick them). But Alhamdulillah he is so loved by both sides of the family. But both sides are still eagerly waiting for a girl. Lets see what happens next time In Sha Allah.
Re: Reaction of ur spouse and family on finding out the gender of ur baby
^ I think that’s one of the reasons my husband secretly wanted a girl too. His family is mostly boys and everyone is having boys.
Re: Reaction of ur spouse and family on finding out the gender of ur baby
The first time I think none of us really cared. We had a boy. At that time there were no babygirls on my side and 1 babygirl on hubby’s side.
Second time we were having a girl. Again same scenario as above with the families, so everyone was naturally very excited about this. She expired shortly after a premature delivery.
Third time I really wanted a girl, because I thought my husband wanted a girl. When the doctor told us it was a boy I was disappointed. I think I even ended up crying once I got home and hubby had to knock some sense into my head.
Families are excited either way and all I can say is alhamdulillah for everything. He (swt) knows best.
