Boy, Girl, Either  

post #1 of 43
Thread Starter 
Which are you "hoping" for. I mean, take out the whole "as long as the baby is healthy" answer. Yes, we allo want healthy babies. But what gender are you wanting your healthy baby to be????


I'm always curious!

We honestly do not have a preference. A girl would be great as then my girls would have another sister, but a boy would be nice too since we've never had one.

We aren't finding out the sex, which is awesome, but tough when it comes to choosing names.

I want a girl. I feel like our first will be a girl, and a friend with two boys also said that she thinks we'll have girls.

If I had to pick, I'd say boy.

My dd has a cousin across the street who is like a sister to her. If this one's a boy, my ds will have a little bro who can be his bestfriend.

But of course I would be thrilled with a girl! Already I couldn't resist buying a cute little dress for her from the thrift store just in case!

I'd say boy...I just feel like I'm supposed to be the mama of a pack of little boys! I'd like my first son to have a little brother! But of course, happy healthy baby is most important, no matter boy or girl

I have been wanting a boy for Abby to have a little brother, but now that I am pregnant, I think it is a girl. Hubby wants another girl.

I always see my children in dreams early on in my pregnancy. A couple of nights ago, I had a dream about boy/girl twins! AAAAAAHHHHH!

I guess if I had a preference, I'd say a girl, since I have two boys, but I'm pretty sure I'm destined to be the mother of boys exclusively.

If I could choose, I'd pick a girl. I already have 2, and I'd prefer boy-girl-girl to boy-girl-boy. (Does that make sense?) *But* I'm kinda getting a boy vibe. (We have such a hard time with boy names!) Whatever it is, I hope it's sticky!!

I have no suspicions about whether I'm carrying a boy or girl right now. I hope that its a girl, but that's b/c if it is she will be named after my great-grandma and have a lovely name. We have boys' names picked too, but I don't feel as strongly linked to those names.

I always wanted a pack of boys. Really hoped for boys before. Thought I would want a boy again and I do. But. This will be my last baby and I am surprised to feel a longing for a girl. It may just be that ds1 told me I am pregnant and the baby is a girl named Annie and I want him to be right (except for the name). He knew I was pregnant before I did. He would love a baby sister. So I guess I want both for very different reasons.

I'm very cool with whichever, although another girl would be easier since I already have the clothes DH is calling it a girl already, and DD started calling it a "baby broder", but now it's a "baby sistah" Only time will tell!

With our next child i am hoping for a boy since we have a girl.

I am hoping for a girl... and I do feel intuitively that I could be caring a girl!!! However... I LOVE my boy and I got this boy thing down pat... so ... I would be happy with either one... such a blessing!

Newbie here. I would love a girl, but with two boys already, I know what I'm doing there, so a 3rd boy would be good too.

I am yearning for a girl. And so is my whole family! My mom has 6 grandsons and my mil had an only child (boy) so everyone wants a baby girl. I know I will fall in love either way though.

DH has no preference but I kinda want a boy. I wish I had some deep reasoning behind this but I don't. It's just my feeling right now.
post #17 of 43
I'd be lying if I didn't say that I'm hoping for a girl. I feel extremely outnumbered with 3 boys in the house already (yes, DH counts as a boy ) and way too much testosterone. So, I'm hoping to balance it out a little with a girl. We shall see!

I honestly don't have a preference either way. I have a girl and a boy already. I will be estatic no matter what gender we are blessed with!!!

That's us, except in reverse- we already have a little boy. We are also not finding out this time.

I do have a feeling it's going to be another boy though as my twin sis just had our second boy, I have my one... so we shall see. Either way there are pluses for sure!

I would be happy with another boy, but would also love a girl since I don't have a daughter yet.
