I am sorry that your friend is going through this!
I think what you are saying about society causing GD is so true. I was excited about having a third girl until the u/s tech was so disappointed for me. She had 4 girls and was just glum and saying negative things. I should have reported her, as her behavior was so unprofessional and really affected my DH and I. ...

I watched a homebirth story that was the same way, except that it was the woman's fourth baby boy. She had a great birth and looked happy, but she broke down crying once she discovered it was a boy. It was horrible to watch and I felt so sad for her, the baby and her family. Seeing that birth story only cemented my belief that I need to find out early, so I can deal wit...

That is what happened to me with my first baby, so I totally get what you are feeling. I had a premonition when I got married, that my SIL would have a boy and 9 months later i would have a boy. Well, my LMP for my first pregnancy was the day my nephew as born, so I was convinced it was a boy. I had boy dreams and told everyone that I just knew it was a boy. I was completel...

I could have written this but about my 3rd DD. She was the cause and the cure for me GD. We had the chance to do PGD with her but took our chances, and by god I'm glad we didn't go down the PGD route!! There is something about her I can't explain, her awesomeness is beyond words and she completed our little family of girls beyond what we could have ever imagined. To top i...

Hey, sorry to thread jack, but i just wanted to let you know that you were right about the U/S I posted a few months ago. It was my sisters and she just found out today that she IS having a girl. She already has two boys and a girl, so they are thrilled!
Thanks!

I could have written this post! I had GD 3x, but no more. If we have a 4th, I will happily welcome another girl. My 3rd daughter is just so special and the bond between my girls is such a joy to witness on a daily basis. It is hard to believe that I was so depressed after learning that my third girl was on the way, because now I feel so incredibly blessed. ...

I never swayed and ended up with three girls. Had I known about swaying, I would have swayed for a boy last time. However, I think I unknowingly swayed for girls because I was on a crash diet (South Beach) for about 10 days when I conceived my girls. So many cycles TTC yet every time when I went on South Beach for just over a week, I conceived and had a girl. ...

My DH doesn t have gender preferencies and I find that unexplainable.

My DH also doesn't care that we only have girls, he has no desire for a son. Don't get me wrong he would love one but doesn't have the yearning I have. I think he's a freak of nature lol [/quote]This is also my DH and I also find it unexplainable. ...

I am sorry you feel left out! I can see that happening.
I am an all girl mom and I feel left out sometimes by the boy moms. Last year the boy moms formed a playgroup and really became a tight bunch. I can understand, but I felt a little left out because they happen to be the moms I really like.
My DD just started girl scouts and the moms that run it all have s...

I also love Rooibos tea and was drinking a ton of it when I conceived my last DD. I think we better stay away from it during our boy sway! Then again, I was drinking TONS of green tea when I conceived DD#1, so I am avoiding all teas.

That woman sounds very strange! Your boys are beautiful!
I encourage my DDs to play with their 5 boy cousins and boy friends at school. In fact, my 5 yo DD is best friends with her 3.5 yo boy cousin and calls all of my nephews her "brothers." I want them to have positive relationships with boys their age and hopes it lays a good foundation for one day choosing the ri...

I also think it is 50/50. Here are the makeup of my family and friends with 4 kids, having 2 boys first:

I also think you don't see many GGBG because a lot of people with GGB stop right there. GGB seems like a very common family configuration and was my d...

I am average and DH is slightly overweight. We have 3 girls.
My grandmother was underweight and my grandfather is average. They had 3 girls and 1 boy.
My paternal grandparents were both slightly overweight. They had 4 boys and 1 girl.

My nub shot looked almost exactly like yours and almost everyone voted boy. She is definitely all girl! So, there is still hope.

I'm sorry. That would be very difficult for me to accept, too.
My DH would love a son, but he is very content to stop with our 3 girls. If we do try for a 4th, he is not interested in swaying and won't be upset if it is another girl. I often wish he was desperate for a boy, because I really want at least one, maybe two more children, while he is ready to close up shop.

I have heard of this, but it also wasn't true for me. I have had all natural births and did not bond with my oldest for months. The only one I bonded with right away, was DD#2 and she was an almost a pain-free birth.

Your story has me crying! Your baby boy is such a miracle, to beat such odds. Clearly, he was meant for you (and your family) and you were meant for him!

I haven't gotten my boy (yet!) but I have a strong feeling that my GD will remain and even intensify if I do have one. If my next/last baby is a boy, it will probably ignite my desire for another boy. I love having 3 girls, because they are all so different and it is fun. I see it with my sister who just had a girl after 2 boys. She wants to TTC again, thinking/hoping i...

I totally understand. My GD really started after we had overwhelming boy nub votes, despite my gut feeling it was a girl. I was right and it turned out to be girl #3. We were a bit deflated and I was depressed for about a month. I don't think I would have been so disappointed if we hadn't been given a lot of hope for a boy. It worked out though and we can't imagin...

Here is my GD baby at 3 weeks old. She is my sweetest baby yet and I can't believe how much we have all fallen in love with her. It almost makes me think I would be okay if we ever have a 4th girl.

It does seem to be so common with those I know and I always wonder how they made it happen! I also noticed that people assume we are having a boy, as if that is just a given after two girls. It makes me think that is what they are used to seeing happen.
