what stirrs it up for me

I have put most of my yearnings for 2 of each on the back burner...forgotten about it and it got cold...today my mom sil calls and tells me she cant give me her granddaughters clothes because she is adopting her other granddaughter from her son in feb from the babies crack addicted mom...she has no choice since CCIS is removing the baby from her custody at birth...the mom has 2 girls no issues and is severely addicted... here I am with a high risk pregnancy(Doc's don't treat me as such tho) history of preterm labor, PPROM and a reoccurant miscarrier watch everything I eat/drink do everything by the book....could make a saint cry

I was just having this conversation with a good friend that I met on IG actually. I have had four misarriages and two live boys. Lots of pregnancy complications . Anyhoo, I am reading this story about a crack addicted mom who had a crack addicted baby girl . It breaks my heart. Why is it so hard for me to have a girl when these other women get them so easily while taking drugs?

We were noticing that these drug addicted moms seem to always have girls. I have been watching this for many years. Maybe us moms who do take good care of ourselves end up having boys because the male fetuses are more delicate ?

Actually, you have a point! This is part of the theory behind swaying: in times of malnutrition and poor overall health (which I assume drug-addicted moms have), women tend to have more female offspring. Hence the rigid IG girl diet poor in nutrients and strenuous exercise.
