    How many do you know with 3 of the same?

    I know this is completely ridiculous and statistically irrelevant, but I feel that because most of my friends with 3 children have mixed genders I am going to be the one with 3 of the same.
    Out of my friends/family who have 3 kids, 4 couples have mixed genders and only 1 has 3 of the same. Also one of my really good friends has a girl after 2 boys so now I feel this wont happen to me. I know it's silly but I can't help it.

    So tell me amongst your friends, do you know many with 3 of the same or do most have mixed genders?

    TIA.

    For me its about 50/50 I know several people who had 2 of one gender and the third with opposite gender but then I know people with sets of 3 of the same and then my paternal grandmother had 7 boys and statistically only 1.8% of people will have that happen to them...

    I know some with 3 boys and some with 3 girls. Many of the HT girls have 3 of the same. Most people I know are stopping at two and its mixed bt girl boy and same gender kids.

    I am doing HT as we have 2 boys and I would rather stick with my 2 boys than add a third boy. Dreaming pink :-)

    My mum have 5 girls and 1 boy. :P Went GGGGGB

    A mum who had a her last DD when I had DS2 has four girls too.

    But think that's about it. Most people I know stop at 2 kids. Funnily enough, most aren't mixed though - most are either all boy or all girl.

    My sister has GGGGGG, so 6 girls. I have BBB, so 3 boys so far. I know so many people with so many variations, just about every. So people seem more likely to have a lot of one particular gender and others tend to have a mix (lucky things).
