    Is it even possible to have a girl after 2 boys?

    I hope I don't offend anyone and I know that obviously it is possible but it seems like most people with two boys go on to have a third boy. It sort of makes me lose hope when I see this especially since I had a dream that said I would 100% have another boy if I had a 3rd child. Obviously I have to come to terms with having another boy if I decide to go forward with a third but I really want a daughter.

    I notice many people will have a daughter after 3 boys but I can't do four kids.

    Well, I sure hope so or we better just pack up and go home! LOL. Seriously, of course it is possible! You may be more inclined to have a boy for your third after two boys BUT, THAT is why we have this site and THAT is why we teach swaying techniques to change your odds! Hope we can help you!

    I firmly believe it is possible! In my hometown, I can think of several people that had a girl after 2 boys or a boy after 2 girls. These people seemed to change their lifestyle quite a bit, at least the ones that I know well. I took some pointers from one mom who had a girl after 2 boys. She said the biggest thing is truly letting things go. Meaning the things that used to bother her that didn't really amount to much, she just changed her attitude. If it wasn't a true necessity or could potentially cause harm, she let it go. That stuck with me. She also led a classic LE lifestyle, which was very different from when she had her boys.

    GL to you if you end up swaying for a third!

    Yup. I have a girl after two boys. So does a friend of mine. I'll be honest in saying I know MORE moms with three boys than I do two boys and a girl. But it certainly is possible and I know that the other mama didn't sway at all for her girl. Just got lucky! Don't get yourself down. Tons of those three boy moms know nothing of swaying, you are one step ahead of the game

    We may be done, we may come back for one more sway. Time will tell. At the moment, we are very content with our family!

    Absolutely!! I am proof of that and I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt I never expected to have a girl after 2 boys. So much so in fact that I was not willing to take the chance but that was taken out of my hands (I still can't believe it but 20wk scan confirmed it) and I can only put it down to the changes we both made in our diet and that is all thanks to this site. I feel ashamed to say I found 'Gender Dreaming' in hospital, after the birth of my beautiful DS2, googling 'how to choose the sex of my baby' and whilst I feel terribly bad (that does not even begin to explain my feelings because DS2 is beyond perfect, to me) about that now I'm so glad I did because even though we were planning HT it was all the advice written up so perfectly by Atomic that made me think I should at least see if I could do LE incase HT didn't work. Here I am :-)))

    And yes, everyone says oh it will be another boy (we aren't telling anyone because quite frankly I'm still annoyed with quite a few close members of my family who expressed their disappointment at the the birth of DS2 a little too openly for my appreciation!!) because everyone I know who has 2 boys goes on to have 3 blah blah blah so I just smile and nod and think you very, very, silly woman. Ok......I'm thinking far worse names than that but will keep it nice on here :-)) And whilst I know of a few people with 3 of 'both sexes', in the wonderful court I live in 2 other families have 2 boys and then a girl and I will make it 3! So yes plenty of people do and so can you :-))))

    I often think this too. I know very few people with mixed gender families. Everyone I know has either all boys or alll girls with a very select few that have pigeon pairs and stopped at that. My SIL is one of the very few I know with two boys and then a girl, my cousin had two girls and then a boy. My best friends mother had two boys with a similar age gap to mine then she had a girl. She does psychic readings and although I wouldn't get her to do one for me she has told my best friend that she did a tarot for me and that I will have a DD next and then another DS (strangely enough this is my dream family - well my new dream family, my original dream family was BGGB but that ship has sailed lol) I'll take it with a pinch of salt but holding onto the hope that I too can join the illusive ranks of BBG families

    I have BBB and now hopefully G. I feel that MORE people have BBG than BBBG. I see many people on here and on Ingender with BBG, so I feel that BBBG is less common. I think it's all about we choose to notice. I feared BBB and got that, I thought I'd never be able to have 4, but here I am pregnant with no. 4. Weird when life has something totally different planned for you than you did

    This is probably true. My husband used to love to point out 3 boy families probably to get me to stop talking about a girl. So, I started noticing bbg families and pointing those out. After enough of that I got him to stop lol So, yes, I know it does happen. I think it depends on my mood of what I notice.

    One thing I see everywhere are PP it just seems so common! I really see mixed gender families much more than same sex siblings.

    I appreciate the replies. I think I need to let this go for awhile because I'm not even thinking about it for another couple years. But as you all know, GD has it's triggers and I really hope this post wasn't a trigger for anyone. It's so hard to be sensitive to such a diverse audience but I really don't want to make anyone feel bad.

    I see and know quite a few BBG families. I know far less BBB families. Odds of BBB or GGG are relatively low I think 22% or 25%. But of course they exist. I know and spot so many BBG families in fact that I am starting to believe there's just no way I'll get lucky enough to join that group. Time will tell, 6 wks till we know.
