We had a girl then a boy. My DH claims it is unheard of for a couple to have girl, boy, girl and that if we had a third it would be bound to be a boy. (He makes an exception if the children have different fathers.)
So, go on, a flood of stories about your baby girls with an older sister and brother, please.
(Disclaimer: we really want a person and are not bothered what colour vests it will be given)

brother has girl, boy, girl

your dh is a bit of a know-it-all isn't he?

Muser · 17/07/2010 11:02

I'm the third girl in a girl, boy, girl pattern.

BorisTheBold · 17/07/2010 11:02

Dp's mum had girl, boy, girl, boy, boy, girl...(must have been mental!!).

Hurrah! Thanks.
No DH and I just like to argue the toss. I used to be convinced that if you had a girl first you were more likely to have another girl. Perhaps we have too much time on our hands...

Girl (1987)

You Win ! ! LOL

Is it that your DH thinks that people would stop at 2 if they'd already had Girl/Boy?

Certainly amongst my friends where there are 3 children it tends to be

Girl Girl Boy or Boy Boy Girl or all the same sex. I don't think I know any Girl Boy Girl or Boy Girl Boy families

But I'm sure that's because I know lots of 2 children families with one of each who stopped at two rather than any biological reason

Just read my post back LOL. Obviously I have 3 sibling DER

(what I nob I am)

WTF? Where did he get that idea.

We have girl, girl, boy.

tyler80 · 17/07/2010 11:52

As a little aside, the sex of the baby is decided entirely by the father's contribution. So you can tell him whatever turns up is entirely down to him
