I dont think I'm going to articulate this very well at all.
I have a DD, am pregnant with DC2 and have an overwhelming feeling it will be another girl. I've always wanted three children but I think in my head I envisaged a 2:1 ratio genderwise. I never really imagined three of one type IYSWIM.
Now I have quite a lot of friends who are 1 of 3. Also know parents of three children who are older than me and all have a resounding "dont do it, three is an odd number, someone is always left out".
I know loads of girls who are 1 of 3 and they all seem to pair up within their siblings. "I get on with her, but not her and we cant all be together ever!"
Yet those who have say two sisters and a brother seem better with it, maybe as they are different genders and werent so "pushed together". They seem to have an equal relationship with each sibling.
I know this is a complete generalisation, but its what I've witnessed with friends who have 2 siblings. So is three a crowd, is someone always left out?
