Is it for you, your DH, your mom, the children you already have???
I think many people assume that DH's need a son and moms need a daughter but I know that this is not the case for many families.
AFM, my hubby could care less what we have. It's me that NEEDS a girl. I think I also feel the need to have a DD for my mom. My sis will never have kids so her only chance at a granddaughter is from me.
Originally I wanted the boys for DH, but when I got my little run of girls I started to want a boy for me too, just to shut the trouts in the playground up!
my Gd is firstly for me as i always expected i would have a DD. My dp also longs for a DD. We both wanted a DD from finding out i was pg with our first. My MIL has 2 sons and one hasn't got any children and theres not much hope either so then its left to my Dp to give her a Grand daughter which she longs for. Then theres my mam she has 6 grandsons and 1 granddaughter which lives at the other side of world to us (Australia) and we hardly get to see her! so i would love to give my mam another grand daughter to spoil rotten! So overall we all want a DD. :)
you are so right about the trouts up at school! They always seem to have an opinion!! lolQuote:

For me, for MIL because I know she would like one, for my boys to have some female influence as they grow up. I NEVER thought I wanted a girl...until I had 3 boys. DH is happy to have a LARGE family, as I am...but he says that whether 10 girls or 10 boys, it just doens't matter to him. I beg to differ. I think if we had all girls, he'd be desiring a boy. My mother is with the Lord and I would love to have that bond with a daughter.
