4th child-3 girls and was hoping for a boy…

Anonymous
Found out today it’s another girl. The tech said 3 weeks ago she was confident it was a boy now today when we went for actual gender confirmation appt we are told it’s a girl. I have gender disappointment as with 3 girls, I was hoping for a boy. What are chances they are wrong and it’s a boy?

I get it. But 4 girls is a lot and 4 kids is a lot so I am impressed you took the chance.

I’m sorry, that sucks. I think it’s very unlikely it’s a boy - how far along are you?

My first was a girl and I wanted a boy. I told DH to look around the hospital for someone who'd birthed a boy but wanted a girl and we'd do a switcheroo. You'll adjust to having your 4th girl.

I mean, why have a 4th when the most likely outcome was having another girl? If you read the studies, it's not 50/50 gender distribution. With every subsequent same sex child the odds are higher you will have the same sex again.

You could switch places with my friend who had 2 boys, took a chance on a 3rd pregnancy for a girl, and wound up with twin boys

#1 they don’t live in the DC area

#2 this was quite a few years ago now. Her eldest is a HS senior, same as mine.

I’m guessing at 17 weeks, it is a girl. You’ll adjust, and love it!! 4 girls sounds wonderful to me.

Are you the mom or dad? Feel sorry for your girls either way

I have 4 sisters and 3 brothers. The brother and twin brothers came last. The 5 girls were first
