I am expecting my third and I already have two boys.'ive been asked the question "are you hoping for a girl" about a thousand times sure. I really do want a girl but I am also hoping for a boy so I can reuse all my boy clothes and I love
Being a mom of boys. I'm tired of saying "no I'm hoping for a healthy baby" it's true but it's getting old.
How do you answer this question a billion times with out freaking out? I was asked at Christmas and I said "no, but I'm getting freaking tired of being asked that!" Which wasn't nice but really, it's getting a little annoying!

Re: Any Moms of all boys?

  • Not a mom of all boys but I have a girl and I am tired of hearing about having another girl.  I would like a boy but I would love a girl just as much.  I am so tired of hearing the stigma about having two girls.  Karma for my childhood (earth to people I was a good kid!).

    I just say we don't want to know and we wont find out until birth.  Even if we do know before I am not telling anyone

  • I currently have two boys, and know exactly how you feel! ( we are having a girl this time, but would have been just as happy with a little boy) my family and friends don't see it the same way we did, when they heard the news that's all the could say "oh I hope it's not another boy". We plan on having four kids and have said so from the start, every time we mentioned having another after having the first two people would ask "aren't you scared you'll end up with four boy?" -- congrats on your third little boy, enjoy him!!

    Thank you :) we team green though so we aren't finding out. And yes I also hate when people say "oh I hope it's not another boy!" Geeze people, we are having children because we want children, we are not "trying" for any specific sex. Ugh.
  • I don't know where I got that you were having a boy for sure, haha sorry! Babies are blessings! Enjoy him or her*** haha
  • We always tell people we are hoping for a unicorn. It's a nice way of getting out of the question that I am so tired of being asked.
  • I have 2 boys already and I am having a girl this time, which I did kind of hope for... However I truly would have been okay with having another little man! Boys are wonderful & so sweet.. I don't know if I am ready for attitude & drama yet lol ... But the clothes will be pretty cute ;)

  • I have a 1 year old boy and am pregnant with another boy! This will be our last baby so my husband was really hoping for a girl, but I LOVE that we are having another boy! People ask me the same thing, or they say "well you have to try again for a girl!" Which is getting old too!!
  • I'm at two boys. We've already decided our limit is four, if no girl by then we will adopt or foster down the road to fill my need/want for a girl.

  • I'm a ftm and we just found out that we are having twin boys and when we told everyone people were disappointed! They were like "too bad you aren't having one of each" "guess you'll have to try for another one!"

    We thought were were having one of each but when the doc said two boys we were both really excited. It is really annoying to have people be such downers but we are still looking forward to welcoming our boys--I think two boys will be great & they are both healthy so what could be better?!

    Wow congratulations!!! Boys are so fun :) we love having two and so close in age, they are best buds :) adding another would be such a joy.
  • I have a question for all you moms with two boys too. This is my second and I do not know the sex yet. I want a girl and so does everyone else.

    I fear if I have two boys I will constantly be comparing them and my lil man is perfect. I cant imagine having a better son. I know each child is different but how do yall cope with the different personalities? My son is sweet, compassionate, neat, well behaved. He was potty trained at 18 months and all I heard were horror stories of how hard lil boys r to potty train. He may destroy the house in .5 seconds but he will stay up and clean it before he goes to sleep. He cannot leave the house without having his shower.
    I am an extreme next freak and my mom thought I forced these tendencies on my child but I really didnt. He really just came out this way.

    Sooo if I have another boy and his the little boy I hear sooo much about. What am I going to do. I dont wanna play favorites.

    You'll be surprised how much your heart grows with a second one, all those worries about them being different and you picking a favorite really do just go away. Instead those feelings will be replaced with pride, you'll be proud of how adventurous or how free sprit your second is ( if he comes out behaved differently than your first) - I know this because my first is my wild child, and my second is my quite and go with the flow type. I promise you're not the only one who has those type of concerns while pregnant.
  • I have two boys and people have always asked if we wouldn't wanna try for a girl. Well ....just found out we're having a third boy and we are sooo excited. Our lives revolve around sports and being out doing boy things. I wouldn't change a thing.
  • We are having our second boy. Everyone assumes that we're going to keep trying until we get a girl, but 3 is definitely my limit. I won't lie...I was a little nervous about having another boy. My first is a crazy man, and that thought of having two of them running around destroying my house freaked me out a bit. I have absolutely changed my feelings about that though and I couldn't be more excited about having another little guy around the house. Boys are the best and they love their mommies so much!

  • My first is a wild child as well and my second is just as sweet and laid back as ever! It's crazy how different their personalities can be!
  • I have two boys and find out what we are having Feb 13th, hopefully the baby cooperates! This will be our last so I am hoping for a little girl, my husband would be so good with a girl! I will be happy either way though, 3 boys...wow, what a wild ride that will be! :)

    Ditto. I was worried the second time around too, like how will I love another child as much .. But your heart does grow immensely & you learn to appreciate the differences/similarities .. And my sons just love each other so much, it is an amazing feeling!

  • Pregnant with my 5th boy couldn't be happier. Of course I was a little disappointed at first but healthy happy boys are so much fun I don't know what I would do with a girl at this point.
  • I have a daughter and this baby will be our last. Even though we make it clear to everyone that we are only having two kids we get "but what if it's a girl?" And we simply say, "that would be awesome for emmy to have a sister!" The person who is insistent we "need" a boy is my MIL. I gotta be honest I secretly hope it's another girl so she is pissed lol

  • I am also having my 3rd boy and I have been hearing the SAME thing!! It is definitely getting old! Love being a boy Mom, I am so excited for my 2 year old to have a brother so close in age, he will be 2 1/2 when this little one comes.. My other two are 7 years apart. So many wonderful things about boys... They are such great snugglers they LOVE their Momma and there is NEVER a dull moment! We can't wait! ❤️
  • I have two big boys 12 and 13 when baby is born and I hear you load and clear ... How annoying is it for Everyone to say oooo I hope it's a girl ... To be honest I was freaking out thinking that it could be a girl I mean my house is defenetly a boy house I actually learned how to play ps3 to fit in jajajaja and with so many years having all boys around I was really freaking out i really wished I would have a boy but when my doctor said it was a girl I literally cried I was so excited now I'm having a little princess and my sons are actually really really happy about their new sister :)
  • I'm so happy for all of you :)
    And christinakey, you are my hero. Lol 5 boys!!! Just think, one day you will maybe have 5 lovely daughter in laws!!
  • We have a girl and will be having another girl. Someone actually said aw man when we told them. I said there's no aw man! We are happy with a healthy baby regardless. Personally I wanted a boy, but got over that in 1 nanosecond. I can't wait to cuddle this sweet little girl!
