Matt and Abby Howard Share Experience with Gender Disappointment

Influencers Matt and Abby Howard candidly discussed their feelings of "gender disappointment" after learning they are expecting their third son. The couple had previously experienced the loss of their daughter due to a pregnancy complication.

Expecting Another Boy

On an episode of their "Unplanned Podcast," Matt and Abby, both 27, revealed they are having another boy. Abby admitted feeling brief disappointment but emphasized her love for having sons Griffin, 3, and August, 2.

Although Abby hoped for a daughter following the loss of their baby girl Emerson, she acknowledges that the new baby won't fill the specific void left by Emerson's passing.

Reflections and Future Hopes

Matt shared his own initial disappointment because he wanted his wife to experience raising a daughter. He now embraces the idea of having three boys and cherishes the bond they will create as siblings.

The Howards remain hopeful despite past heartbreak, expressing gratitude for the time they had with their late daughter while looking forward to welcoming their new son into their family.
