It sucks that so many people feel like they can be jerks on FB just because it isn't to our face.
I had a SIL that found out she was having DD3 and so many people blasted her. I blasted right back and criticized them heavily for being so ungrateful that she was having a healthy beautiful baby...it wasn't the most mature thing on my part but I couldn't help it. A lot of the creeps (some of them our BILs and SILs) deleted their comments! SIL thanked me later!
I wander if it was my mom. My nice and caring monther toll me to "get fix becouse I was just making my self more trapted" when I toll her I was pregncted with my 3. She will have a compleat cow when I tell her #4 on it way. (ttc #4)Quote:

Congat! You are a superwoman!!!
I have 3 boys and it can get wild....6 boys kudos to you!!! Congrats on the little one. I've come to the conclusion that people don't have a filter anymore. People think they can just say whatever they want and don't apologize for insensitive comments.
Did you sway at all? I believe diet plays a part in swaying but sometimes I wonder how much genetics does. I have a ton of boy cousins and only 1 girl cousin on my Mom's side. I have 3 boys myself. Just makes me wonder sometimes...
i was disgusted in people's comments when i had my 7th boy 13 weeks ago
i got told that i keep trying for a girl and failing, that they hope i'm not having anymore, omg another boy, you're crazy. that we're gluttons for punishment - i could go on and on. people are so hurtful and they dont seem to care what they say. My desire for a girl still hasnt gone away even though i am totally in love with this little boy - i just adore him, he's such a beautiful little boy
We have decided to try one last time - dh says when i'm ready
i was thinking around May we will start ttc.
congrats on your beautiful little boy - its just as magical every time isnt it!!
mumof6- honestly, I think ppl are just jealous of your large family :) People like to make themselves feel better by putting other people down.
I have an older cousin who wanted children badly but it just didn't happen (she is bipolar and on tons of meds, her marriage fell apart right when she and her dh were getting ready to ttc years ago and she never found another partner). So when my sis and I had our babies (we both have boys), my cousin made sure to make comments on FB ("omg you better have a girl this time!", etc), yet she treats her only nephew like he is a prince...she is soooo in love with the cute little guy and since he was born has doted on him and spoiled him, her FB page is littered with pics of him, etc... if she had a son it's pretty obvious she would be in love with him. So I think all the "girl" comments she has said to my sister and I are some deep-rooted jealousy that we had children, so deep maybe she doesn't even realize it kwim?
I get a bit jealous of large families like yours, regardless of gender...I always dreamed of a large family but one of my kids has autism so it has changed everything. We can only handle one more kid with our ASD son's issues, and that makes me sad. I think you are so blessed. :)
I think Houseofblue has a point. When people see or hear of a big family they automatically make it all about them. They have things like "I can't afford the X number of kids I have now, how could I ever afford 7??" running through their head.
I have an aunt who is disgusted at anyone who has more than 2 kids like she did. She really couldn't handle the two kids she had and she wanted them to have a certain amount of wealth and privilege throughout their life. Her kids have had huge psychological issues with their mother, lots of therapy needed.
Even though my cousins are adults, she still controls them, to a point, with money. When she sees people with large families, such as my parents with 7 kids, she is appalled. She thinks my parents were big flops because we didn't/don't have as much wealth and privilege as her kids had. Reality is we had different opportunities than her kids and have done just fine in different ways.
mumof6 I not saying this to be mean, but out off consertion. I was toll to wight a year befor trying and we dont lisstion to the docter we end up lossing are baby last week I would not be able to live with my self if i dont warre other to wight the year and the loss there baby too.
