If you have three children what sex was each in order?

[DIngdongmerryilyonhigh]

I have two and had two girls, I'm curious as to whether many people have two of the same sex and then one of the other.

Currently considering having a third but wondering how it would change the dynamics if baby was a boy so should I stick to two.

Disclaimer - not an AIBU but more people read this section.

Boy, boy, boy.

Boy, boy, girl, 2 years apart.

I have several friends with the exact same order of 3 children, too.

Would you prefer a boy this time OP or no preference?
It seems to me that more girls are born overall.

Boy -5 boy nearly 3 girl 6 months

Boy girl boy

Girl, Girl, Boy

51% boy 49% girl unless you are amongst the tiny number that are more likely to have one than the other.

I read that the older you are the more likely you are to have girls?

Boy, boy, boy. Ds1&2 were a few weeks off 6 & 4 when DS3 was born. Someone in Tesco said ‘I feel sorry for you’ in front of all three of them when ds3 was little. I think afterwards, she probably felt sorrier for herself.

My PIL had boy, boy, girl. My sister’s PIL had boy, boy, girl, boy.

BGG and the girls have an 18 month age gap

Families I know with more than 2:
Bbb

No rhyme or reason to it.

Boy, girl, girl.

It's purely chance I don't think here's any probability either way

Boy (6 years 6 months) girl (6 years 11 months) girl (2 years 5 months) girl.

DH has girl (8 years 4 months) girl (2 years 5 months) girl.

Our next is due in February, 2 years 2 months after our last, but we have chosen not to find out the gender. I can always come back with an update if the thread’s still going

Eldest (very late miscarriage) boy

DS1 - 5 years later

DD - 6 years after DS1

DS2 - 11 months after DD

(3 v v early mc in between them all)

Boy, girl, girl, girl...

I’m one of 3 - girl, girl, boy

Dh is one of 3 - boy, girl, girl

I have 3. Girl boy girl.

I was one of three: girl,girl, boy
My elder sister has 2 girls
I have 2 girls
My brother is child-free.
I guess we will always wonder whether a third would have been a boy. I know my sister ummed and aahed over trying for a third as she really wanted a boy but really didn’t want a third girl.

I’m one of 3 - BBG
My DH is one of 3 - BBB
We’re pregnant with our third - BBG

Of families I can think of off the top of my head I know
BBB x6
GGG(and anther girl when the mum remarried to a man who already had 2 girls)
GGG x8
BGB x2
GGB x3
GBG
GBB x3
BGG (girls identical twins)
BGB (last G/B non identical twins)
Triplets of 2 identical girls, 1 boy and triplets of 3 non identical girls.
GBBB
BBGB

So I suppose looking just at the groups of 3 I know more with three of the same than those with 3 different. 15 all 3 the same and 13 different.

my late DMIL had three sons. All of them have daughters. two two and one. Nobody is going to have a third one so can't tell what the third one would be. My DM had girl boy girl. Her DM had girl girl boy.

Boy, then DTwins who are non-identical girls.
