What is your occupation? Assistant Academic Counsellor @ a University
What are your hobbies? Graphic/web design, working on our house, reading
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I'd be happy with either, but I'm leaning towards a girl. DH wants a boy. DH wants a boy because he likes the idea of our kids having a big brother around. I'm the oldest girl in my family, he's the oldest boy. haha Guess we know where our preferences come from!
How many children do you want? We want 2 to 4. We'll see how things go
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living my baby you'll be.

DS #3 diagnosed at birth with panhypopituitarism - lack of pituitary function. He is treated with thyroxine, hydrocortisone, growth hormone and testosterone.
How old are you? 27What is your occupation? Mom and author (I write online content for science textbooks)What are your hobbies? Photography, bloggingAre you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I have mixed feelings. I want a boy because I already have a girl, but I'd also like a girl because they'll be fairly close in age. Either way, I will be happy! How many children do you want? 4
What is your occupation? Full time student--graduating in May!
What are your hobbies? reading, movies, watching sports, outdoorsy stuff, animals, playing with my puppies, and now looking up lots of baby stuff
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I just really want a boy the first time--I guess I'm just a more tomboy kind of girl but I have a weird feeling it's a girl. I'll be happy either way though
How many children do you want? I've always wanted a big family. I always said 5 or 6 but I think it will end being about 3 or 4 maybe. Depends on what my husband wants too and financial situation at the time.
What is your occupation? Nanny- only part time right now so we can keep baby healthy
What are your hobbies? Scrapbooking/Card-making! Journaling, Cooking.
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? Hoping for a girl since my family is filled with boys. Only 4 out of 13 cousins are girls and I have 5 nephews..no nieces. However, cliche' or not, we really just want a healthy baby. I guess we have more hand-me-downs if it's a boy
How many children do you want? Ideally, we planned for 2 from the beginning. However, we are so truly blessed to even be pregnant in the first place. We've had a recent loss and I have many health issues. We were told in September after some surgeries our chances of conceiving were slim to none. Then came Nov. and our little miracle happened. Sorry for the rambling there.
How old are you? You little girls make me feel so old...36!
What is your occupation? 3rd grade teacher!
What are your hobbies? Family, husband, scrapping, kids, reading, beaches (summer)
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? Long story...hubby really wants a boy (family name thing). I always thought I wanted a girl, but God has changed my attitude and I will be so happy with either (healthy!) We both know that boys tend to be mama's boys for a long time and girls tend to fall in love with daddy, though I'd love a close relationship with a daughter.
How many children do you want?We'll be happy with 2. Again, I'd love a boy/girl, girl/boy, or two of either. Special-ness any way you look at it!
What are your hobbies? Being with my kids, scrap booking, taking pictures
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? BOY. I have one of each but my son is my ex husbands and DF would like to have a son to carry his name, Plus I have a REALLY close bond with the girl I already have. Don't get me wrong I would love another daughter just the same but I would chose a boy if I could pick
How many children do you want? This is my third & final
What are your hobbies? Travel, Decorating and Renovating (D+R), Movies
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? Hoping for a girl to start. I think I'd feel more comfortable/know how to take care of a girl better and also we have tons of girl names, but really no boy names!
How many children do you want? 3 but we'll see how it goes! Depends if I can make it through 3 deliveries and pregnancies!!
What are your hobbies? camping, hosting, and traveling
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I will be happy with either... just hoping to have a healthy baby! DH thinks it's a girl and I think it's a boy. We are going to wait to find out though.
What are your hobbies? cooking, reading, traveling
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I'll be thrilled w/either, though having another boy would be great. I have so many boy clothes and since we only have a 3 bedroom house, the 2 boys could share a room once baby #3 comes along (yes, I've thought all of this out, ha!)
What is your occupation? SAHM, freelance Photographer
What are your hobbies? photography, design, travel
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? Part of me wants a girl, since I have a boy...but part of my wants a boy because I would love DS to have a brother (and we have everything for a boy). So either, just a healthy baby please!
How many children do you want? Would love 3, but this will most likely be our last baby

Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I would love a girl (already 4 nephews on my side of the family) - but I always wanted an older brother growing up - so it would be nice to start with a boy. Really and truly though - either will be just fine!
How many children do you want? We always "planned" on 4 - but didn't anticipate starting as late in life (we've been married 7 years and trying for 5). So, we're super thankful for this one and will take whatever else God gives us (if any).
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? I'd like to have a boy first -- there's all this pressure on us to "carry on the family name" and my dad has hinted to wanting a grandson (father of two girls and one granddaughter)
What are your hobbies? Ballet (started this as an adult), gardening and learning Italian (this has been on hold with my sked lately but want to have it pick up soon)
Are you hoping for a boy or girl? why? always wanted a girl. my mom and I are so close and I know that is because i'm a girl. Partly why I want to know the sex of the child asap is so I can be ready for a boy. that being said since I found out I was preg it suddenly hasn't mattered as much. DH doesn't care either way.
How many children do you want? we'll start with this preg and go from there. I'm an only child and so is DH (sort of) so we both are open to that.
