I had always thought I wanted a girl first but as the pregnancy has progressed I've realized it would be great to have a boy first too. So I can honestly say either way I'll be thrilled. The baby class helped us---we took breastfeeding and baby basics. Otherwise I'll be relying on my mom, my husband's mom, and trial and my two friends who had babies recently to tell me what to do! I remember having 21 weeks left---halfway done! and you really should post some pictures you know.....
