Poll

in August 2013 Moms
A ton of our friends have had/are having babies this year, and it seems like they're all having boys. When MH talked to one of his coworkers who's a bit older than us though, she said all her friends are having girls. Obviously there are exceptions but we're guessing the trend seems to be late 20s to early 30s = boys and mid to late 30s = girls. Does that ring true here at all? I'm 28 and team blue. Just interested to see if there's any correlation outside our circle!

    I am 29 and team pink. Although this baby was conceived using ICSI during the IVF process so maybe it would have been team blue had we conceived thengoodnold fashioned way.  But seriously, I don't think that age has anything to do with it.

    What about early 20's?

    I'm 24 and had a boy last year. This year we are having a girl. So I doubt age has anything to do with it.


    I was going to say the same thing. I'm 22 and having a girl. A girl I went to school with just had a boy.

    I know several people pregnant. Actually about 10 are due in August! It's a good mix of boy/girl and most in their late 20s. So yeah, don't think your theory has any truth.

    I'm 30 and having a boy. I've found boys or girls are more rare depending where you live. There have been lots of girls in our families and only a few boys. At church, there's a 3 to 1 ratio - more girls.

    I'm 29 and having a girl, just had DD1 at 27! So, I guess I'm the opposite of what the trend says.

    It seemed like right until I got pregnant everyone was having boys. Now that's changed. I have one friend who just found out she's having a girl (late 20s) and another friend who is having boy/girl twins (early 30s). We'll find out the gender of our other friends baby this weekend (early 30s). But so far it's been a good mix for my group.

    I had my daughter at 39 and will have my son at 40.

    Also, a friend who is about a year younger just had a boy and then a girl about 18 months apart, so I doubt age was the factor here.

    28 (DH is 32), we're having a boy and everyone I know right now that has recently delivered or is expecting, and has found out the gender, has had or is having a boy with the exception of one friend that just had a girl. 

     

    P.S. I really wish the bump would fix the poll feature!!!

    No I am 35 had my son when I was 34. I actually think the opposite the later in life moms tend to have more boys because they may have been charting or doing IVF.

    haha yes, i am aware that the sperm determines the sex of the baby. i wanted to see if there was any correlation with age and basically the findings of dr. shettles (shettles method) where he essentially concludes that Y-sperm are like sprinters and X-sperm are like marathoners. thanks for all your input ladies!

    In my immediate local circle (not facebook friend etc.) there are 8 of us pregnant all in our mid 20s to early 30s and all girls. We are team green but feel like we might turn team pink in August.
