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

[Anonymous]

I have 2 boys and in an ideal world I would have liked to have a daughter. But having all the same gender has a lot of advantages too - sharing clothes, toys, rooms; more chance of common interests and a strong sibling bond. As parents you are better prepared for the challenges. Think about all the positives!

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?

A child is not a disappointing Christmas gift. You need to grow up and pray that your new daughter is healthy!

probably near zero.

Have you thought about having a fifth after this one?

If so, use IVF and you can choose the gender.

I actually like having babies and toddlers. I like kids of all ages. We have a fun house. You do you.

This. And consider IVF. The tech is there to select the gender.

I get it. Im pregnant with fraternal twin girls and had gender disappointment as well. My oldest is a boy and we already have irish to twin girls. My husband and son's reaction didn't help much either, but I got over it quicker than I thought.

Is this meant to be inspiration to OP?

Surely you knew there was a chance of this happening?

Have you met boys who are the youngest with many older sisters? You may have dodged a bullet.
