What came after? If you have 3 kids that is! All the families I know who had girl then boy, had another boy after! So I’m putting my theory to the test!

Don't know why you bother anyway because you are obviously one of those non-science people who believe that a girl can declare himself a boy anyway at age 4.

Of the 3 pluses I know

Boy girl boy x 2
Boy girl girl x 4
Girl girl boy x 4
Girl boy boy
Girl boy girl girl
Boy girl girl boy
Girl girl boy girl girl
boy boy boy girl boy

Girl, boy, boy.
My best friend also has the same birth order.

Interesting and really got me thinking. Actually of the few families I know with the G+B+1 combination, a lot of those are actually four children families.

These are all the ones I can think of and most share your theory!

VestaTilley · 18/05/2023 23:20

DH’s SIL had boy, boy, girl.

Chatterboxy · 18/05/2023 23:23

Boy, Boy, Boy!

Lampzade · 18/05/2023 23:26

Wibblywobblyway · 18/05/2023 23:43

Boy girl boy

Sceptre86 · 18/05/2023 23:46

I debunk your theory and have girl, boy, girl.

EggInANest · 19/05/2023 07:40

GBG

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 19/05/2023 07:47

Dd had girl, boy, girl.

BriocheForBreakfast · 19/05/2023 08:07

Just going through in my head people I know with three and I only know one who had GBB. Burn now that I think about it their dad came from a family of GBBB

BriocheForBreakfast · 19/05/2023 08:08

But not burn

PlatBilledDuckypuss · 19/05/2023 08:19

Haha!

Some more GBG and BGBs here. For the record I never said it was impossible just that it always seems much rarer than two of the same sex in a row and one of the other.

After commenting earlier that I was pregnant with my 3rd after having a girl then a boy, I've found out that I will be having a boy this time so your theory worked out correct for me!
