I have DH and 2 boys. The next will be our last so I would like to have a girl, but I won't be disappointed if it is another boy. We will NOT keep trying to get a girl, that is for sure. I'll have a whole football team of boys and no girls. lol
We would love to have one of each since we got DS first we would love a girl next. However we know it is just whatever happens and we will love him/her no matter what.
I checked girl, because I would like to have another girl. But, hopefully we will have 2 or 3 more and I would also love at least one boy. So, I really don't care what the next one is, I just think maybe it would be nice for DD to have a sister somewhat close in age to her. Like me and my sister.
Vocally I want a boy, pass the name on, balance the family yadda yadda. Secretly I want another girl. But logically I will welcome whichever and whatever children im capable and allowed to have.
I always thought I would want a girl (one boy now). But now I cant imagine anything better than my baby boy! Plus it would be cute to have to little boys so they could BFFs.

This. I want another boy, then a girl...ideally. But I am blessed with the one I have and grateful for that right now.
Apparently I/we make awesome girls, so I'd be fine keeping up that streak. I'd also be fine with a boy. My crazy nephews haven't completely scared me out of having a boy.
I feel like it's easier to not have a preference once you have one. Either you get the same gender/sex or you get the opposite. You either save money on clothes or you get to try your parenting on a different gender/sex.
I said boy as we already have a girl and it would be nice to have one of each but part of me wants another girl so DD can have a sister. I'm close with both my siblings but my sister and I share a special bond.
I want a girl, I want to make pigtails!!! and buy girly stuff! but a part of me also wants another boy...I think it would be so awesome for DS to have a little brother, and I would love to get to take all of DS's little clothes out again and use them with another baby boy sooooo I guess I don't care!
I voted a boy, because it would be great to have one of each. I always saw myself having a son, but once I found out I was having a girl, I was beyond excited.
I have a girl, but I want another one. The plan is to get pregnant in January again so that if we do have another girl, we already have all the stuff. However, FI wants a boy because he already has another daughter in addition to ours. He's the only one out of him and his sisters that has girls.
I have a girl, voted for another girl. I'd be happy with either, and one of each would be really cool, but I want another girl more. I wanted a boy more for my first. I always liked the dynamic of an older brother looking out for his younger sister. Now that #1 is a girl, I just think having a girl for #2 would fit better.
