Ugh! I feel for you. We just found out number 2 is another girl and I know we're going to get the same thing. EVERYBODY is convinced it's a boy (we haven't told yet) and I know when we have number 3 people will assume we're trying for a boy. I keep telling everybody we're just trying for a baby!
my sister and i are only 14 months apart. now im having my 2nd and my LO's will only be 16 months apart. From my mom and my perspective the same sex makes it easier. They always have a playmate, can share rooms, clothes, just about everything. My sister and I were only one grade apart in school so we had alot of the same friends. They will be best friends and worst enemies all at the same time. One day the older one wont mind the younger hanging around, and then she wont want anything to do with her. My sister is my best friend now but she wasnt always that way. Although she did let me hang out with her friends alot. Even in high school. The younger one will get sick of hearing, 'so your so in so's sister'
But I think its great having a sister so close. Good luck!

Re: Looks like we'll be hearing a lot of:
I was JUST looking at your siggy this morning and thinking I needed shirts like that if it was another girl. Etsy purchase?

PS: I also love those shirts! So cute
Congrats! At least you know what you're in for! ;-)
I was psyched to have another boy. Same-sex siblings are so much fun!
