I'm sure this has been asked but I don't even know where to start looking!!
How many of you have had a girl after 3 boys and no sway? I know it makes no difference to my outcome but I'm still curious!
When I was expecting my 3rd, hearing friends having a girl after 2 boys made me think somehow that would diminish my chances. This time I feel like I'd have more hope hearing other moms had a girl for their 4th without trying or an oops like me:/
Thanks!!
I am curious about this too!!
I personally know a few people who have 3 and 1, no purposeful sway.
My one friend has 3 boys but her ds2 passed away and I think her change in diet and personality after that swayed for a girl for her. she had lost a lot of weight after not eating.
Not sure about the others...
I had three boys and now expecting a girl, as far as diet, hadnt really changed although had a thing for beetroot at the time, the only thing I think contributed was that hubby had a u.t.i so ate litrally all my cranberry tablets in the 2 weeks before I fell pregnant!
I was just searching for this yesterday! I thought Mrs P had a post somewhere but couldn't find it! Obviously, I'm very interested in this too!
Right after I gave birth to DS3 there was one of the nurses who I was talking to. She said she had 3 boys too but didn't stop there and went on to have a girl. There was also this old man that stopped me in the grocery store one time. He was adamant that I had one more just like his wife who had 3 boys then a girl. It gives me slight hope, but not much since I feel strongly this is boy #4!
That wasn't the case for us, although our number 3 boy was number 3 & 4 and then 5 and then 6 were boys too! ;)
I've also seen quite a few families with 5 boys and then number 6 was their girl, but then again, not for us. Now I'm listening out for stories of families with 6 boys with no. 7 being their girl to get my hopes up. ;)
Gosh! I really hope #4 would be the girl. I have been pregnant a total of 6 times. My first two were boys, of my next three losses, we only tested one baby which was a boy. I then had a twin pregnancy and my dreams told me they were b/g but only the boy survived. Sure hope lucky #7 is my girl! We swayed this month-and I have been on LE diet 16 months, so we shall see. I hope you have you your baby girl :) I would think the odds are the next baby would be a girl! H&H 9 months!
I know several families with BBBG, good luck!
Thx girls! I'm ok having another boy as I know how much I can love all of them but it would be nice to have a girl so I don't have to have a little sad feeling in there forever. I would have swayed again if I was to go for # 4 on purpose but I don't ever think I'd have the nerve. Actually I know I wouldn't have! It's not the fear of another boy anymore it's the pregnancy and the change to our lives! Although my husband is totally fine with the idea so that calms me:)
So afraid of the sickness though... Hasn't hit yet which is go of me false hope I think:/
More stories welcome! I like just hearing from moms with lots of kids too! Tell me how awesome it is;):)
You'll do great coocoo!! (Huge congrats!!)
I know several moms with BBBG, in fact, I don't know any with four boys (in real life). I can list three who have three boys and then a girl. I don't know about their lifestyle or if they swayed or went high tech though. Just people in my social circle. I know one of them was an oopsie fourth, so I assume she didn't do anything to up her chances of a girl (but is also know her third was an oopsie too!). The other two I am not close enough to know the details. One is currently expecting #5 though, so I might be inclined to believe the 4th was planned? Hard to evaluate when I don't know them super-well.
I hope you get your girl. Not because you *need* one though. :D
I just saw a thread about this, it was started by Mrs. P and is probably in "new posts"!!! If anyone has time, can you find and link it for coocoo (sorry in a rush to finish short q's before Suzy wakes up)
Lots of kids is awesome coocoo. It's loud, it's chaotic, it's messy at times, it's non stop but I wouldn't have it any other way. When they're all out playing on the trampoline, or having nerf wars or sitting down all watching a movie together, it's just so good to see them all together and knowing they will always have each other. And the littlest of our kids, love their bigger brothers and run to hug them in the mornings or when we pick them up from school, it's so gorgeous. And my favourite part of the day at the moment is bed time when they say goodnight to each other, especially when our one year old goes round to each of his brothers saying "nigh, nigh" and giving then the biggest cuddles and kisses! :)
Here is the link to Mrs P's post...finally found it!

I was also thinking last night after reading your post about all the families I do know with BBBG and I do know quite a few. :)
I know one who swayed, although I'm not sure what she did, and one that defiantly didn't but still had BBBG. The others I don't know well enough to find out. Lol! :)
Thx NC! I saw you found that earlier today:) I know it doesn't change anything and I feel like I'm not going to be one of them but it's still nice to think about here and there;)Quote:

Beadinmom just had a little girl after 3 boys. And even thought I didn't have bbbg, I still had a girl and 4 boys. I think anything is possible. You have just as good a chance as anybody.
Thank you Beachy!!
now we can add me!!!
so happy for you! Xx
You can add me too :) atomic said i had a "laid back sway"!! Xx
Congrats Coocoo and Mrs! That's wonderful!!
Even though I have 4 boys instead of 3, you ladies give me hope! :)
hey I did it and so did "knock your balls off" and "Mrs. Weasley" from IG! :)Quote:
