Can we pray for the sex of the baby?

I am 4 months pregnant and I haven't found out the gender of my baby yet. I pray a lot that we have a daughter, I have a son and I really want the second one to be a girl. Do you think it is wrong to be so persistent?

Of course, your prayer and insistence would be wrong if it means objecting when it is a boy. Keep praying, if this baby isn't a girl, the next baby will be a girl, biiznillah.
