Does anyone have 5th kid after 2 girls 2 boys?

[ilovecty20050506]

I think a lots of mums stop at 4 because of having 2 girls and 2 boys, so can someone continue to have 5th kid after 4 kids that are 2 girls and 2 boys were born?

Are you ok? Maybe have your coffee first and then start a thread

Strange post - you can have as many or as few children as you like, of course

But there are more mums to have 5th kid after 4 boys, 3 boys 1 girl, 3 girls 1 boy or 4 girls, but I have seen less mums to have 5th kid after 2 girls 2 boys, they think 2 girls and 2 boys are the perfect combo so they don't prefer to have 5th kid

How many people do you know with four kids?!

Many

My mum had 2 boys and 2 girls and went on to have a 5th child.

It's just personal preference, isn't it? The balance of 4 is lovely but some people feel their family has room for one more!

Well yes. The person I know with 5 children had 2 boys, 2 girls then went on to have another girl. So there's 1 at least!

I'm not sure I understand. Are you asking if it's biologically possible? Or if it's a good idea?

I mean does someone have 5th kid after 2 girls and 2 boys combo

Why are you wanting another child? 5 is a lot and you should be far more concerned about why you want another child rather than basing it on previous sex of children.

How would you even give each child individual equal time each day with 5 kids? Dear lord sounds impossible.

One of the loveliest families I know has 5 children. 2 boys, 2 girls, then 5th. Kids are bright, polite, sporty, confident - really lovely. I only have 3, and that feels like a lot, but I would never comment on another person’s family planning, whether you have zero or 7, if you can afford them, it’s up to you.

Some people do, some people don’t. Is this the answer you wanted?

I envy anyone who can afford four never mind five children. We wanted four but stopped at two because of financial constraints. Can’t people find anything else to do with their lives than rear children?

I think 5 is too many. I think 2 people raising 2 children, replacing themselves essentially, is the best way. Whether or not you can afford it, what can society and the planet afford?

Yes obviously there’s 8 billion people in the world. There will be families of all shapes and sizes of course people do this. I know. A girl that had 2 girls 2 boys and then another girl

You have as many kids as you want and can afford! People will secretly judge you for having 5 children whether they are boys or girls. If you want a 5th what does it matter how many boys or girls you already have or what other people have? You have a lot of children either way!

I am the eldest of 5 children. My mum had girl, boy, girl, boy, boy. So yes of course you can have a 5th child after 2 of each. Whether you should have a 5th is a different question. It's not a pattern that I or any of my siblings has repeated which I think says a lot.

A couple of families I know have 4 a few more 3 but pretty much the majority have 1 or 2. Who on earth can afford 5 kids these days?

I’m sort of hoping you don’t have any children with this kind of thinking @ilovecty20050506

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

No, nobody, ever. It's categorically unheard of 🙄

Of course they do. I know two people who did that. They had:

BBGGB
BGGBBB

The only couple I know with 5 kids have G,B,G,G,B and the 5th was a happy accident

I think people should be less worried about the sex of their babies, all children are individuals

I know a few women with 4 children and they either have all boys or 2/3 boys and then finally a girl.
