Did anyone else see this? This mom has 14 girls including 3 sets of twins, and plans to keep having babies until she has a boy. Her daily schedule looks insane! She's 29, and started having kids at 16. I hope she gets her boy soon!

Wow! With her crazy, hectic lifestyle, I'm not sure she will have a boy. There just isn't much time for her to eat! I hope I'm wrong though, and she gets her boy!

What?!! 2 hours sleep a night?! I would have cracked it long ago! Good luck to her, that's amazing that contraceptions don't work?! Maybe that's contributing to making all those girls!

Maybe it is spacing, stress, or lack of sleep but whenever I hear stories like this I think, "So much for super fertility swaying blue."
I tend to think people who are willing to keep going until they get the other sex are people who want and would have had large families, anyway.

Fertile people can and do get pregnant with girls ALL the time. If it was perilously difficult to get pregnant with girls then there would not be 7-8 billion humans on the face of the globe. Try to think of it as a continuum where there is a middle range of people who get pregnant easily but are still maybe a little lower in fertility than some of the rest of us, and then everyone totally in the middle may be 50-50-ing it. Something in her environment, maybe diet, maybe condition/fertility, maybe personality or some other thing we cannot even guess at, is sending a message to her body that girl babies have a better chance of survival to adulthood to pass down genes than boys do. That's all.
All we can do is look at overall trends and the overall trends absolutely do indicate to me higher fertility = more boys. When I strike it rich I'll do studies that will hopefully demonstrate this. :)

I know a gal who had 8 girls and then two boys, and what happened was, her life was really crazy and hectic of course, and then her 8th daughter was just one of those kids that is a real handful to take care of. All her other girls had been fairly easy but then the 8th was a real firecracker. So she had to fight tooth and nail with her all day every day and I think it did something - sent some signal to her body or whatever - just the constant aggravation, tantrums, etc and then her next two were boys!! Sheer speculation of course, but fun to wonder about. :)
