I've has the "clever" and "well done" comments for having 2 of each. We went girl, boy, girl, boy.

I honestly couldn't have cared less if we had got 4 boys or 4 girls.

A woman at our playgroup has just had her 4th ds and she's had some pitying comments. She's over the moon with her ds. Some people are just idiots.

Congratulations!

Ignore the idiots who say stupid things like that. I have two boys and I wouldn't change them for the world [even now they are teenage grunts Grin]

Yes, aren't people funny - like one of each is what everyone is trying for Hmm

I had a DD who died aged one month, then DS1, then DS2, then DD2. Everyone said "oh, at last you have a girl!"

No. I have had 2 girls and 2 boys.
