trying to be supportive

[ksmom]

I never much cared for PPs; so boring/typical/common. No same gender sibling bonds which are superior IMO. I'm the girl in a PP and my brother is a massive loser sociopath, so I may be biased...

Since I lost my B/G twins I can't stand FB. Any babies/young children are hurtful. On top of that I'm jealous of girl babies and when I see boy babies (most of my friends have only boys and 3+) I fear I'll be an all boy mom. I can't win! So I just avoid entirely.

My mom has one sibling (a brother) and they were never close. She hated him from day one. LOL They haven't spoken in years....decades really.

Yes, atomic unfortunately I did feel sorry for all boy moms before I had my two boys. I have no idea why now though. Maybe it was just my own desire for a daughter and fear I'd never have one.

I hate Facebook for a myriad of reasons but boy does it fuel my GD. Especially because my husband has a huge family and it's not only "look at my beautiful baby girl" but look at my beautiful daughter in her quince dress or look at my beautiful daughter in her prom dress, all this times 20 lol there seems to be a huge emphasis on the "beautiful" part above all else.

It hurts because it just shows what I will be missing out on for the rest of my life and yet seems so easy for everyone else to get.

Totally know how you feel. Every time I see pictures of people's daughters on FB, I just think "and that will never be me, I'll never get to have a daughter." It feels like anyone can say they want a daughter and BOOM! it happens yet statistically speaking the odds favor boys. I don't get it, I just don't. I have nieces and while I love being around them and buying girly things for them, it's just not the same. They're not MY daughter.

Just when im feeeling like crap i read these posts and find people that 'get me' and what im feeling. I agree i hate PP more so than ever. Its like yoy know job, marriage, average house, average family boy and girl its very stepford wives lol. Gosh i get crankier in my old age (im only 32 😂😂&#128514 i guess having all my boys means they'll have a few to talk to and hopefully help each other in life.

That is disgusting talk about boys and favoritism towards the girl. Those are the types that don't deserve kids. Silly women

If I had a daughter I would never favor her over my boys, ever. I know there are parents out there though that are like that.
I get the feeling from a lot of people that no one's family could ever be complete without at least one boy and one girl. The handful of ladies I know with all boys would always get those comments of "I hope it's a girl!" every time they announced another pregnancy.

I remember the first time my oldest niece asked me to play My Little Ponies with her, I didn't know what to do with myself! lol I'm so used to my boys playing with cars/trucks and fighting imaginary dragons. I gotta say though that I loved every minute of being girly and playing with ponies and dolls with my niece. I was so giddy when she asked me to do her hair. LOL

Well, my brother and his girlfriend are ALSO now having a boy after a girl. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say every single person I know IRL, not from the sites, who has had 2 kids in the past 10 years has gotten a PP without even trying. :/
