    Some suggestions for ya'll...

    Here's what you can say when someone says, "Oh you have all boys (or girls)? You poor thing!"

    1. Actually, we're not sure about the last one. Wanna take a look for me?
    2. You think my girls look like boys??!! (be sure to yell)
    3. We're hoping one of them is gay, so he will sort of be like a girl.
    4. Yes I do. I like boys better than girls, so that's what I had.
    5. Yes I do. It's horrible (start crying hysterically)

    I actually did #4 in real life. The lady looked at me like I had two heads. I just smiled and waved goodbye at her as I walked away.
    Mother of two teen boys and one toddler boy. Which means I'm all sorts of crazy.

    I used to love to say, "We're half way done! We want four more boys". That really shut them up.

    Too funny!
    Mom to

    and my IVF/PGD

    It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

    Very funny! I like #3 too!!!

    People have such nerve, you know?

    I was walking w/ my two boys in their stroller back when they were 2.5 years and 5 months. A woman was walking ahead of me w/ her triplet girls in little wagons. She waited for me to catch up for some reason and when I did she stood there, looked at my stroller and said, "What? No girl?" I stood there dumbfounded and then managed a "nope." She then went on about having triplet girls and how great they are. Then like a weirdo, she said, "oh yeah, I forgot....I also have a 7 year old son." Congrats, lady! She is the exact type of person that I should have said this to, "Well, we had a girl, but she died." but I never have the courage to actually say that even to people who deserve it.

    I don't get people sometimes!
