Mom of 6 boys at her gender reveal party

Ha yeah...that is true. People would assume the sister thing. So annoying!! Our number is 4...has been for a long time. No matter the genders. People ask me if we will go until we get a girl...ummm no we will go until we have 4 . period.

We are the same way, except our number is 3. Since I am already pregnant with baby #3, and I am 35 (I will be 36 when this one is born) we are going to be done. It took me so long to conceive this one, and I don't have a desire to go through that roller coaster again. 3 is it!!

From what I hear even when you have a pp and go for a 3rd people have to comment. Why would you want another when you have 1 of each? Because obviously the only reason to have babies is to get both genders and then you're done.

What I think is that people feel like they have to say something, and when we're in it, it probably rubs us the wrong way no matter what. Personally, I always liked it when people assumed I wanted a girl, it felt a heck of a lot better to me than when they were like "well you should have just been satisfied with 2 boys, it doesn't matter, yadda yadda yadda."

My mom innocently posted this on my FB page and it really annoyed me (not the video, that she posted it.) She didn't mean anything by it, just bugged me, IKYKIWM. But, of course people would think of me right away.

My boys have always been pretty cool with the GD. Since mine were teens/adults while all this was going on I felt like I had a handle on their real feelings and they never took it personally. They were glad I got a girl in the end.

I've known a few same gender sibling families where the siblings have GD they will happily tell you I hope Mom gets a boy this time or I hope we get a sister
