Here's one for ya: my mom had 4 girls (her mom had a boy then...surprise twin girls fraternal!)......of my mom's 4 daughters: I have girl,boy,girl,girl and all three of my sisters each have one kid, all girls LOL my poor Dad!!!! You can see why my hubby is really paranoid to try boy sway (and he also has only sisters geez)
My mom had 2 girls. I have 2 girls and my sister has 2 boys. My MIL had one boy so there isn't much to go on DH's side of the family.
My mom had me and my brother. I have 4 boys and now having a little girl.
After seeing this thread, I asked my mum if she remembered her diet/weight when she conceived me & my brother....she didn't remember much difference in the type of food she ate at conception, but did say that she was quite skinny and had been poorly before conceiving me, and then when she conceived my brother was a lot heavier (had a lot of baby weight left from me.... only 14 months between us, so I must've only been 5 months old when bro conceived)
my mother had two Girls
My mum had 3 girls. Her mum (my gran) had 2 girls. DH mum had 2 girls, 2 boys, her mum had 3 girls. I have 2 boys :)
My Mom is the Youngest of 3 Girls (one sister has same father)
My Dad is Oldest 3 Boys
They had my Brother (Boy) and then like 5 yrs later me (Girl)
My Brother's wife had tubal preg (think it was boy) and I think a M/C (might have been Boy) not sure exactly but then 10 yrs ago Had a Girl (my neice)
DH Is the Oldest (Boy) and has two Twin Sisters (DH and twins are like 2 yrs appart)
One of the Twins had Twins (1 Boy and 1 Girl) a year before we conceived our Son.
We have 1 Boy.
We have what is called "the curse" in our family. My great-grandmother had all girls (11). My grandmother went on to have all boys (2). My dad and mom had 3 girls and so far I have had 2 boys...
My mom had BGG
My MIL had BB. Her husband had a G with another woman.
My brother had BG
My sister had GGBGG- last two were twins.
We have GBBB with one ? on the way.
My mum had me first at 22 (girl!) and then my brother 2 and a half years later (he has a daughter). She divorced my dad when we were small and when she was 33 she had another son with her second husband. I havent asked her about her weight/diet as I am not overly comfortable having that type of conversation with her although I was born in September and the boys were born in April and August so I guess from a seasonal perspective it fits. I am guessing that she would have been at her lowest conception weight when she had me and her highest when she had her second son. She has often been on diets such as slimming world etc.
I am ashamed to say that I am not sure about my dad's side, I know he had at least 2 brothers and 1 sister but I am not sure about any more, his family was bigger and we havent had the best relationship unfortunately. My mum had an older brother. He sadly died when he was 10 years old.
On my DH's side, he has one brother so he always goes on about having more boy sperm which really irritates me!!! His dad has one brother and 2 sisters which sounds 50/50 to me. But because DH has one brother he seems to think that in his line its only boys......and we do have one son but knowing what I know from here (thanks atomic) I am not surprised and thats down to my diet and lifestyle not the fact he has a brother. His dad's brother has 2 daughters.
We have one DS. Once I decide to TTC again I am hoping for a DD but wont be upset to have another DS.
