When Posh Spice had her third boy a specialist ( in something!!) said once you have 2 babies of the same sex you're 75% likely to have a third baby of the same sex.

"lots" is any more than 1 child.

yes, u are more statistically likely to have a third the same. like posh n becks. my neighbour has 3 boys, my neighbours where i used to live when i was young had 6 girls, YES 6 and desparately wanted a boy, they had a boy eventually, no 7.

millie34 · 29/01/2006 20:41

I am about to greet number 5 and people seem shocked ( esp as so many boys) but 9 still sounds quite a lot to me....lovely...but lots!
