okay, I don't belileve in boy babies

in Pregnant after a Loss

Between my and DH's families, every single baby has been a girl. In the last two years, DH's brother has had two baby girls in addition to his SD, his cousin has had a girl and has another girl on the way, I'm having a girl, and my brother and SIL just found out they're having a second girl. Out of ten of my cousins' kids, only three are boys.

Someone in the immediate families needs to have a boy, or I will stop believing that baby boys are even possible!

    It's funny when you think about it, there really must be 'waves' of gender.

    Lately, most of the Team announcements have been girl, but, most of the PgAL babies born in the past couple of months have been boys.

    Our DD will be grandchild #7 on both sides of the family.

    DH's family has 5 girls, 1 boy and this will be the 6th girl

    But my family has 5 boys, 1 girl and this will be the 2nd girl!

    We have patterns on both sides of our family for grandkids.  DH's family it goes boy, girl, boy, girl, and we just had a boy.  My side it goes boy, boy, girl, girl, and we just had a boy.  We followed the pattern on both sides and before we knew it was a boy, everyone was swearing it was a boy.  Thank goodness we didn't disappoint anyone!

    Predominance of one sex tends to run through the men... so you'd look to your DH's father and brothers for trends.

    DH's dad had 3 boys and a girl, his eldest brother had 2 boys and a girl, and his other brother has a boy.

    You can see the trend on my side... my dad's dad had 4 girls and 2 boys, my dad had 4 girls and 2 boys!

    What's extra crazy is that DH is one of four boys. So far, those boys are making only girls! And my dad is the middle of three boys, he had two boys and two girls, and my brother now has two girls. Maybe after this first big round of girls, it will be all boys from here on out. We have yet to see...

    Funny, I don't belive in girl babies anymore!  I have only had one friend have a girl in the last three years.  I guess we'll see if we keep with the trend on Monday!

    It's funny how things work out like that in some families. Out of 17 cousins on my Mom's side, there are only 2 boys.

    That is unusual! Maybe that string of boys is yet to come.

    That's funny. My family is the opposite. DH and I both only have nephews. Everyone was "expecting" us to have a girl, but we are having a little boy too. He'll have lots of cousins to play with :)
