Not sure where this goes but if you love statistics come on in lol

Ok so, my mom has 3 daughters, including me. I have 2 boys and pregnant with #3 and I am due at the end of August. Sister# 2 has 1 girl and is due in April with a boy. Sister #3 is due in May with her 1st child and is also having a boy. So what are the chances that all 3 of us will have a boy? It seems to me that this year is a heavily boy year, pretty much 9/10 people I know are having a boy lol

Thoughts?

P.S I have a friend who said that there is no way all 3 of us would be having a boy, the statistics don't indicate that and I want to see what her logic is without questioning it yk?

I dunno... My Mother was pregnant with my sister at the same time as her 3 sisters and my fathers 2 sisters...thats 6 babies and out of them 6 babies 100% are girls who are now all in their 31st year...Lots of partys last year lol I think you have the same chance of a boy regardless of whether or not your sisters have one!

That's what I think too rainbow lol I'm pretty sure I am having a boy too :P

Did you sway, there is still a good chance you will have a girl as well...but in any event how nice that they will all have a playmate close in age!! I was so jealous of my sister as we are quite a bit apart and no cousins my age lol

I didn't get a chance. Long story short, mirena fell out, got a BFP, then I started cramping and bleeding, thought I had a miscarriage and then I go tot he Dr a week and a half later and baby is alive and well! Was 8 weeks 6 days this past Monday and heard the heartbeat and all!!!!! Mind you, I had purchased a personalized plan from Atomic the night before!! So yeah, I think this little one is a boy, it can't be a girl with everything I went through!

No playdates with them, I am in Africa and they are in Cyprus lol

There are no such thing as boy years or girl years, if there were they would be totally investigated by science. I know tons of people having girls this year

When it comes to gender, it's not a coin flip and so the odds really don't work that way. Sometimes 3 people will have the same gender, sometimes not.

I am so convinced I am having a boy, I think my defenses go way up when people try to say that just because my symptoms and pregnancy this time around, combined with the fact that I have lost weight, been stressed, just got off the mirena, oops baby and all that stuff is because I am having a girl!! Because we ALL know that stuff like that doesn't matter but it's starting to get to me and I don't like it one bit lol

[atomic sagebrush]

I know that is super annoying, isn't it?? (sorry I know I did say some of that!! ) But I think it's because people love you so and really really want you to get a girl.

I also agree I know tons of people having girls this year. Its so weird because when I was having my boys I only knew of people having boys. There seems to be a girl boom here
