Oh my goss Adia....

I feel you soooo much!

My DH is the first child of my in-laws. Where I live we usually name children after our parents. If I had a son he would be named exactly like my FIL cause my DH has the name of his grandfather (my FIL's father) so his son would be named exactly like my FIL.
The stress that was put on both of us to have a male offspring has been sooo annoying.
Imagine that the day I gave birth to DD2 they gathered at the room and the first comments after , of course, wishes for the child were that the 3rd will definately be a boy and that I should not worry about a 3rd c-section, cause they are totally safe!!!
That day I decided I would not have a 3rd baby....
The saddest part of it all is that we all live at the same city and like 15 minutes from each other's house, so I have to put up with them every day.
To top it all everybody mentions that my FIL does not enjoy spending time with my DDs, his dissapointment it that obvious!!!!!
I'm only into having a 3rd baby and trying for it to be a boy, cause I see all my friends that have boys and I see the bond they have with their sons, whereas in my case (and most of my friends may I add) my DDs are crazy about their dad, he is their GOD and he is in love with them too. He would be happy even if we did not have a 3rd baby or if we do and it turns out to be another DD.
But I do understand your feelings and I can totally relate with you!!!
I only hope that both our futures include raising our boys!!!!

Mama...that is awful...I can't believe people were giving you pointers on having a 3rd when you had just had DD2....clearly she did not matter to them.

I am sorry....at least you know I have in-laws that make me feel horrid too...even if they aren't trying.

I hope you keep TTC to yourself, you don't need any help (more like harm) from you in-law's when TTC.

My DDs adore DH too. He has said many times that he'd love a boy but he likes his girls and would be just fine with another one.
Thanks for replying...sometimes the GD just gets to be more than I can bear with all the other stress in my life.
