Trying to Get Pregnant

If you are TTC #2...

How old is your first? Do you have a preference on sex of #2?

My DD is 21 months. I would of course be happy with a healthy boy or girl, but I would love DD to have a sister. I have two so I'm biased :)

  • My LO is about 13 months old and I would prefer to have another boy.

  • My first is almost 6 months (time flies).... he is adorable and even though everyone else thinks I should want a girl... I kinda want another boy
  • DD is 14 months.

    I would like the next to be a girl, since they would be so close in age.  And I want the one after that to be a boy.

  • DS is almost 4! Sniff Sniff!!!!

    I would like either one. Ive kept everything from his as a baby but I would also like to exp having a little girl.

  • DS is 18 months.

    I would love to have a little girl but would not be upset with a boy, I actually kept all of DS clothes so I wouldn't have to buy any

  • DD#1 turned 2 in February.  With her, I had absolutely no preference on sex.  This time, I definitely have moments of wanting another girl and then others of wanting a boy.  But, at the end of the day, I don't care.

    I will say, this time I'm more anxious, excited and terrified all at the same time! 

  • DS just turned a year old. I would do anything to have a little girl next, that is my dream. I really want a girl!
  • Mine will be 10m on the 31st. I'd love a boy, but like PP mentioned it would be easier to have another girl so we can reuse all her stuff. I'd be happy either way.

  • Our son is 7 months old. We are going to start TTC in a few months. I don't have a strong preference on our next child's sex. It would be nice for DS to have a brother but it would be nice to have a girl.

    DD is 26 months.  I would love a boy for DH's sake (he wants one so badly), but I would love a girl so DD could have a sister close (hopefully) in age.  I'm not sure I'd be happier with one or the other. 
  • DD is 5......as far as a preference goes for baby #2, it really doesn't matterSmile

  • DS is 2.  I'd love to have a little girl (As would my MIL. She had 2 boys).

    But I'd be just as happy with another boy.  Plus, I wouldn't have to buy as much stuff. I can re-use a lot of what I saved from DS.

  • DS will be 1 at the end of the month. I would love to have a girl next but I also want DS to have a brother so I would be happy with either. I would like to have 3 kids and I'm hoping that at least one will be a girl. 

  • Our DS is 3. We were hoping for another when he was 2 but, life got hectic!!  A little girl would be nice, but then they become hormonal raging biitches when they grow up haha... I will take another boy any day!!

  • DS is 14 months old. 

    I guess I really don't care. We are planning on having at the very least 3 kids but more likely 4, so as long as one is eventually a girl, I'm fine with whatever.

  • Liam is currently just over 2 years old.  I wanted him to be as close to three as possible when #2 came along so we are in the beginning stages of TTC.  I would be happy with either a boy or a girl but I am kind of hoping for another boy.  I've enjoyed Liam so much and I think he would love having a brother.  Plus we wouldn't have to buy as much new stuff!

  • DS is 5 months. We would prefer another boy. We would like 3 boys and then the last would be a girl, ideally :-D

    My son is almost 7. I'd prefer another boy, but as long as I can successfully carry to term it doesn't really matter.

  • My little man will be 2 in July. We're hoping for a girl this time, but I think a little brother for LO would be perfect too. Right now, I just want to be pregnant!

    • DS is 22 months old already. I would love him to have a brother close in age but I would also love a little girl so I'll be happy with whatever we are blessed with. In a perfect world where I could choose I'd have another boy next and then the third would be a girl.

  • DD will be 2 at the end of next month. :) We would love a boy for our next (DD has 9 cousins, ALL GIRLS! We are the last hope for a boy! lol) But, as long as the next LO is happy and healthy, I could care less if it was boy, girl, or 8 legged squid. lol

  • DD is 15 months.

    I would be thrilled with a boy or a girl but gender will likely determine whether or not we go for a third. If we have a boy we may be done and if it is a girl DH will probably want to try for a boy.

    My son will be 4 in July.  We have been TTC#2 for 7 months.  I just want a healthy baby.

  • Luke is 9 months.

    I would love to experience having a daughter (my Mom and I are so close), and think it would be great for him tot have a baby sis, but would be very happy if he had brother as well, and would hope they'd be best friends. So, I guess it doesn't matter.

     This is kind of my thought process as well. DS is 22 months, I don't care whether or not we have  a boy or girl, but I'd like to have 3 kids and I hope at least 1 is a girl, but I'd be happy with 3 boys if that's what happens!

    This for me too. DD is almost 9 months, we aren't TTC for another few months.

    My son is 10 months. We would like a girl but will of course be happy with either - I actually would not mind another boy! I even have an easier time with boy names :) 

    That being said after the next cycle we will not be TTC anymore until Dec

    My son will be 14 months this weekend.  My husband has said he would like to have a little girl, but I kind of hope for another boy just because we already have all the clothes and we know how to handle a boy.  As long as we have a healthy baby we'll be happy.

    DD turns one on Sunday.  I wanted another girl for a while after having her, but I really felt like the baby I lost was a boy.  So I got attached to the idea of having a little boy, and now I think that's my preference.

    DH wanted a boy when I was pregnant with DD (but of course was happy with a girl).  Now he 100% wants another girl.  Probably because DD hangs off him like he's the greatest thing ever.

    Our DS is 3. We were hoping for another when he was 2 but, life got hectic!!  A little girl would be nice, but then they become hormonal raging biitches when they grow up haha... I will take another boy any day!!

    I know what you mean! I ALWAYS said I wanted only boys bc I knew how horrible I was as a teenager and young adult. But Im an only child and my mother is deceased so having a girl would be nice. Ill need a best friend when Im old! I dont want to rely on my Daughter In Laws......bc well again I know how that relationship can be!

  • We are not TTC just yet.  We are waiting until the fall.  But DS is 16 mos tomorrow. 

    The sex doesn't matter.  Just a healthy child.  I think a brother for DS would be great but it would also be fun to have a girl.  It's exciting to think about!

  • DS will be 21 months on the 26th. I really thought I'd want a girl after having a boy, but I honestly would be thrilled with either gender. If the next one is a boy, I'd want a girl on the 3rd. I loved growing up with 2 brothers.

  • Kenzie just turned 18mos yesterday. I want a boy because I know DH would love to have a son. But stupidly, I want a girl too because we have so many clothes fro Kenz that I'm not ready to be done with! lol I'd be happy either way though.

  • DS is 18 mo and I kinda want another boy. (we want 3 and I want it boy-boy-girl) of course, I really do want a little girl one day so I won't mind if I have one! :)
  • My DS is 12 and a half months. I just want to get pregnant and have a healthy baby but mine and DHs family really want us to have a girl. My mom has 5 grandsons and since this will be the last baby (we only want 2) she REALLY wants a grandaughter.
