Tell me I’m crazy

Yall. Someone bring me back to earth and tell me I’m crazy. For context, my sil and I don’t have the same values and views. But we seem to be nice to each other because neither one of use have done anything wrong to one another. I have two boys and she has one boy and a girl on the way. I’m not done having kids and I sooo want a girl. I’m happy with my two boys and I am very grateful but I do want to keep trying for a girl. I have my name picked out and frivolous little theme picked out her already. I know I am setting myself up for disappointment if I have another boy and I know if I have a girl, a lot of what I’m feeling will be gone but I can’t help but feel upset and then feel stupid for how upset I feel. They already picked the same middle name I had in mind so I’m hoping they don’t take the name I want, but is that dumb? My husband also said he’d talk to his brother so they know that that name is not a choice but I told him not to, seems silly to me. Growing up, I was made to feel stupid if I wanted things to myself, is it dumb to feel like I don’t want someone else to take a name that my husband and I love and know they settled on the name and don’t necessarily love it?

You’re feelings are super valid but I think you’re a little in your head. Unless they’ve been hinting at taking the name I wouldn’t stress or bring it up, especially if it’s an uncommon name. Still very valid feeling tho

Valid feeling but i had people let me know that a name was off limits when i was pregnant and it left a sour taste in my mouth. Just because you have a name picked out doesn’t mean it’s off limits to someone else.

@Jazzmyne thank you! I think hearing my feelings are valid, helps so much!

@Daphne good to know! Definitely didn’t want to tell them, I honestly would want to know but I know not everyone would feel the same way. Plus what if I don’t have a girl

What’s meant to be, will be. 💕 Your feelings are totally understandable! But it’s unlikely they’ll take your name. But ifffff they do… maybe it’s not the name your little girl was meant to have and you’ll find something else last minute that just totally fits!! I had a name AND middle name picked out for my future little girl and two people that I know, just named their baby the same exact thing which is wild, but after thinking about it more, we have a new little girl name that I’m so much more excited about… We are not even pregnant . I have my two boys and I’m so happy with them, but you know it’s good to have a girl name in the back pocket:)
