Well, I guess now we have to have a fifth.

We have three kids, all the same sex, and are expecting #4. Just found out that the new baby is the opposite sex, which the older kids are excited about, but my first -- slightly tongue in cheek but uh not entirely? -- thought was "now we have to have a fifth so people don't think we were just trying to get the opposite." I need to worry less about what other people think of me.

Um.

100% no you do not "have to" have a 5th. Are you serious? Are you actually serious or are you joking that this is a funny circumstance. Because if you are serious, God help you.

A fifth of vodka maybe

And 10 kids is irresponsible

That’s funny! But your kid is right, you’ll be asked forever if you were “going for” a boy or a girl.

Def have a 5th so people know you were intentional about it. Tongues will wag all over your neighborhood.
