if you had ONLY your DG, would you still sway the opposite?

say things were reversed and instead of being on here to TTC boy, all you had was boys. do you think youd even try for a girl?

vice versa...if youre on here TTC girl...say you only had girls, would you desire a boy??

I def. would have been just as upset over not having sons. I really had a strong desire for a boy with my first and happily got him, and then was neutral with my 2nd (even tho everyone around me wanted me to have a girl, I really didn't care either way) and I rem. looking down at him and saying "It's a boy!" and being really just totally overjoyed about it.

All along I just thought there would be a girl at some point in the mix but years passed and we didn't have enough money or space to TTC again. I never felt scared or worried, I just thought it had to happen eventually from sheer luck.

Even when I got pg with DS 3 I didn't have a strong pref. either way. I wanted a girl but I thought I'd be happy about a boy too because I love being a boy mom. It was only when I had so many girl symptoms and then the Chinese Gender Predictor said girl, that I got so invested in the idea that I set myself up for such a huge disappointment.

If i understand your queston correctly, i would have to say all my life i wanted a daughter, and i got one first up so i never really felt GD. I was over the moon when i found out she was a girl, not sure how i would have felt if it was a boy? Being the first child it probably wouldn't have made me upset or anything, i am not sure.

I am swaying for a boy, more for DP than me, he now has 3 daughters and longs for that boy. I am not going to be upset with another daughter, he probably is though, and i want to do it for him. So in answer to your question Yes i would sway for an opposite while i already have my DG.

Yep, I wanted both. Not a PP, but BBG or BGG. But I'll be happy with BBBG, wouldn't trade DS3 for the world. :)

Yes definitely. I really wanted DS1 to be a boy, to the point that when people said I was carrying like a girl baby I was disappointed. When he came out a boy I was overjoyed. I didn't sway with DS2 either and when I was pregnant I didn't care either, but I was confident he was a SHE. It was only once he was born that I realized I wanted a girl as well as a boy. I always wanted 3 kids, so I have swayed for pink this time. When DS2 was newborn I was desperate for a girl, but now he is nearly 2, and the boys play so well together and are just gorgeous I find myself a little less obsessed with having a girl. I think it's just that everyone keeps saying I 'need' a girl, I feel like I am missing out on something if I dont get her, if you know what I mean?

Yes. I would have wanted both and would have turned to HT for a girl had I had only boys. I did want a boy first though so I say that with that baggage so perhaps difficult to answer accurately.

I always had a desire to have one daughter, and now that I have my girls I adore them. But if I'd only had boys I probably would not have swayed to get a girl since I feel so terrified of being a bad mama to daughters :(

No :hide: i always wanted three girls. I bet DH would have wanted a boy, and if he wanted one, then yes I would have for him. I wouldn't trade my DS's for the world and I'm so glad I have them but to be honest, no.

I would still sway too. I would like to be able to experience having both a boy/s and girl/s. But, like Cinss, I am mainly swaying for DH and I won't be too upset if it's a girl, but I know he would.

If I had all boys, I may have wondered "what if", but I would not have swayed for a girl. I never wanted daughters, so if I had ended up with a bunch of boys like I wanted, I would never have known (or cared) what it was like to have a girl.
