Adding a third ring to our circus!

Hello all. . I'm just wondering who else has baby #3 on the way? What ages are you current little ones? Do you have boys, girls or one of each? Are you hoping for a boy or a girl specifically this time?

I'm a mama to two girls ages 1 and 3 (will be 2 and 4 when LO is born). We are hoping for a healthy baby but I would really like a boy. My DH would like a boy too. He's a little tired of princesses and tea parties. Also,EVERY member of my family's immediate response was, "Is this going to be your last baby?". Just curious if anyone else has gotten asked this...

Re: Adding a third ring to our circus!

  • This will be my third, I have a 10 year old daughter (from previous relationship) and a 5 year old son with my husband. I'm hoping for a girl this time around, partially because I want a girl with my hubby, and also because I don't know if I could handle another boy! My husband and son are enough to worry about (although the are both adorable), and both my kids want a sister.
    Everyone has asked since I had my son if I'm done now, since I have one of each. I tell people maybe, because I've always wanted a third, but people think I'm nuts to want another... now that it's happening, I'm super excited :)
  • I'm also a baby #3 gal. I have a 7yo son and a 4yo daughter. This pregnancy was a bit unplanned - I gave away every single baby item we had within the last year - so I am happy either way. My daughter was a much easier infant so I feel like that might be swaying me toward wanting another girl. However at this point, I feel so much more relaxed about parenting that newborns seem relatively easy. (Saying that out loud probably guarantees me a sleepless, colicky one, right?)

    This will be baby #4. I have two boys and a girl. I would just like healthy versus a specific sex.

    Since this is my fourth I am super nervous to tell my mom. She has always hinted to me with each pregnancy that it should be last. We are secure, but she is the type that thinks you should have max two no matter your situation. I am way more nervous to tell her than I was when I told her I was pregnant with my first at 20. I know she will be happy, but I think she worries that I am over extending myself and stressing myself out. Maybe I won't tell her and see if she notices a new baby in all the pics:)
  • This is #3 for me as well, I have a 10 year old son from a first marriage, and an almost 4 year old son with my now husband. People will ask if I want a girl, honestly, what I really want is a healthy and happy baby. DS2 was colicky and cried 12 hours a day until he was 18 months. I reeealllly don't want to go through that again.

    I don't want to tell my mom, she is like "can I be done havin grandkids now?" It's annoying because she doesn't help with them. This will be #12 for her, but I'm 1 of 4 and the baby, what do you expect? I'm honestly afraid of all the reactions we will get. I don't think anyone will be supportive. Just trying to get it out of my mind and move on...

  • Baby #3 on the way!! I just found out last Saturday so I think we are still in shock. We were hoping to conceive again, but weren't overly trying. I have a 9 year old daughter from my previous marriage and a 4 year old daughter from my current marriage. We are hoping for a healthy baby and are really hoping for a baby boy this time, but I guess we'll see! I think my husband just might go crazy if another girl is on the way! Lol
