Only girl in class of boys

DD (7 mo) is due to start a lovely nursery and we have had a few settling days. She is one of only 2 girls in a room of 12 and the only other girl is due to move up to the next room soon. Now I'm sure it makes no difference, but...I feel a bit bad for her! Tell me I'm worrying unnecessarily? I'm not even sure what I'm worried about? Maybe that they will be a bit rough and rowdy? I know the room will change as new babies join and hopefully some girls will join soon but how would you feel about leaving your DD in a class full of boys?

At this age it makes no difference at all!

Babies are babies - not sure they even know that boys & girls are different.
If she's likely to be with the same cohort all the way through to 4 I might be slightly more concerned but even then in my experience the children all mix really well

It's not a class as such a she's 7months! She will Not mind a bit ! Plus in nursery at that age they are all playing with same sort toys it's not like she's 3 and she has no one to play dolls with because all boys are playing cars. I'm sure girls will join and plenty more when they are 1 2 and 3 as children start childcare.
