From the very beginning , everybody has thought I was having a girl . That was the first thing my ex said on our way back from the hospital , in fact . Well , it ' s gonna be a girl . Everyone ' s having girls it ' s girl season . My aunt said it would be a girl because my family always has girls literally , everyone has had three girls and then gotten their tubes tied . My mom said it would be a girl , my sister said it would be a girl , my best friend said it would be a girl . even before I knew I was pregnant , when I was leaving to go to the hospital , my ex ' s aunt said If it ' s a girl , name her after me ! Bitch , no . Even since the beginning , I ' ve had this strong feeling that it was a girl . Turns out , according to my anatomy scan , we were all right ! Except for the grandpastobe . My stepdad and dad both said it would be a boy , and refused to budge until we had the ultrasound .
