Mommies of 2 girls or 2 boys (or more)...
HOw TIRED are you of hearing this ??? :
Moms of boys: "So ya gonna keep tryin for that girl ???"
Moms of girls: "So I bet your hubby really wants a boy"
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ! How annoying !!!!!!!!
I was at a baby shower today, baby talk all around, there were 5 preggos, 3 of us knowing we are having boys. one other mommy of 2 boys having her 3rd boy like me
I was waiting by the ladies room and this one lady goes "So do you know what youre having?" and I said "yep another boy!!"
and she goes "OMG your kidding !!!!!!!! with a "my sympathies" look on her face, and then she proceeds to say "So how disappionted were you? Were you REALLLLYYY THATTTT Disappointed????" (still with a sad look on her face) as she stood there with her little girl, I said "Well beleive it or not, Im not disappointed in the least bit ! I love boys and Im so used to being a boy mommy, and if I had another I think Id want another boy! "
and she continued to get into this discussion of when I SHOULD "do it" after ovulating to increase my chances of having a girl ! AHHHH.
I had my nieces with me, they are more than fun, adorable, girly-girls. I adore them and have fun buying them girlie stuff.
ITs not to say that I WOULD be disappointed or that I would be sad if I DID have a girl, but why does everyone assume youre sad to have all one gender ? I always thought there was something cool about 2-4 sisters or brothers growing up together. Im sure its a cool bond and different from others...
Ugh, thanks for letting me vent. Anyone else get this alot ??

This is why I'm sooooooo glad we're having a girl now. One of each so we never have to be worried about being asked this question. We're stopping at 2, so we lucked out. I feel for you. I'd be so annoyed being asked all the time

too funny. My mil had 3 boys (DH included) and 1 girl (she's the youngest. She has no problem saying how disappointed she was each time she had a boy ----- ummm - shouldn't you be happy to have a healthy baby?

I think people just can't win no matter what they have. I ALWAYS wanted 3 - 2 of each & a spare .
I always hear "Oh, so you have a boy & a girl - you're all done now." Truth be told we are all done, but having people repeatedly say it is annoying. I think I'm going to counter with "Yup, that's right - only recreational sex now."
As for three boys - I can think of nothing more wonderful than having your own little gang.
