My parents had four girls before our little brother was born, so I have a clear understanding of how much each person is different, regardless of sex, and how special it is to have siblings at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245767 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:07:12 +0000 SAHM0811 245767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm very happy with 2 girls. i initially wanted 2 girls and 1 boy in any order... but now we're thinking of stopping at 2 girls and i'm really happy with it. i sometimes wonder what it would be like to have and raise a boy, but i don't wonder so much that i want a 3rd child at this point in my life. </p> <p>i'm really glad my girls have each other as sisters too. that bond is so special! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245716 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:54:20 +0000 hilsy85 245716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely. I would ideally have 2 boys and a girl...but as long as I get at least one of each I'm happy :) dh also said the other day ,"I'm so excited about this boy, but I also really want a girl!" so hopefully it'll work out that way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245615 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:32:06 +0000 stargal 245615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i want one of each but since having my son i would LOVE for him to have a little brother, something about two little boys together having that special bond. i would also love for him to have a little sister and would love to have a daughter, so i def still want one of each. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245603 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:29:22 +0000 MamaMoose 245603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I REALLY REALLY want one of each. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245596 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:27:56 +0000 chopsuey 245596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted 2 girls.

If I only get one gender I choose boys though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245541 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 18:05:24 +0000 BSB 245541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would like one of each. DH wants a boy and I want a girl. So I will hope for both! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245473 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 17:12:08 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 245473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: i'm the opposite! </p> <p>I will stop at 2 if the next one is a girl. If the next one is a boy (I will be thrilled! But..) I will continue until we have a girl.<br /> This will work out perfectly because DH wants lots of kids anyways....and I don't mind it. But I also don't mind totally being done if our next is a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245471 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 17:07:55 +0000 DillonLion 245471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want as many as it takes to have a boy...ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245470 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 17:07:07 +0000 duckduckkristen 245470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We want two of each! That way everybody will have a brother and a sister. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245465 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 17:03:35 +0000 MaisyMay 245465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want a boy. Hubs is the only boy in his family and I'd like for there to be a boy to continue the family name on for at least 1 more generation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245461 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 17:00:47 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 245461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It didn't matter so much to us for the second. However, I grew up with sisters, so having another girl was a sweet gift. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245460 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 17:00:31 +0000 autumnlove 245460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I would love one of each! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245455 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:55:47 +0000 sulli301 245455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just found out we are having a boy &amp; we already have DD...we couldn't be more overjoyed! We didn't care either way, I think 2 girls would have been cool, having a sister close in age would be so fun, but I love that we will have one of each :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245452 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:54:04 +0000 Foodnerd81 245452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessiejo17: I totally agree on the sister bond! For ME, I think I would like one of each, because it would be fun to experience parenting both. But for them, I think I'd rather two of the same-- either gender-- because I feel that sisterly or brotherly bond is just so, so special. There is no one in the world who knows me like my sisters, not even my brother, so I would sort of like them to have that bond.<br /> So, mostly I'm really glad I don't have a say in the matter anyway :) H really wants a boy though, and I just have a feeling that we will have 2 boys and be done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245448 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:50:58 +0000 Running Elley 245448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: Haha thanks! I was convinced the baby was a girl (they even told us that they were 98% sure of it at our NT scan) and in complete shock when we found out he’s a boy!!! I’m completely thrilled about it now though and can’t wait to meet our little guy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245438 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:44:07 +0000 Mrs. Pen 245438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Running Elley: off topic: I totally didn't know you're having a boy!! Awww sooo happy for you!! I have a wee little boy and he is so fun! You will love him sooo much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245437 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:43:14 +0000 Mrs. Pen 245437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I honestly couldn't care!! When I was pregnant with Cobi I was positive he was a girl, so I started wanting a girl. I was shocked when the tech said boy!! But I love having a little boy!! i totally wouldn't mind having 2-3 boys. But I would be thrilled if the next was a girl too!!</p> <p>DH REALLY wants a girl next though - awww he is so cute :) I actually would love a daughter but if God gives me another boy I really will be SOOO thrilled. I love little boys </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245429 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:37:07 +0000 LuLu Mom 245429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really want one of each, I want to experience parenting to each gender, however if we had two girls I wouldn't be upset, they can have that bond with each other that is unexplainable to anyone who doesn't have a sister! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245421 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:35:00 +0000 Honeybee 245421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We really didn't care what we had, but when I got pregnant with #2, the thought of having a boy did scare me a bit! My daughter is so easy and so wonderful... I was worried I wouldn't know what to do with a boy! Turns out, boys are so wonderful and special in completely different way from girls, and I'm so happy we have both a boy and a girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-you-wantdid-you-want-one-of-each#post-245418 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 16:33:01 +0000 Running Elley 245418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve always thought that if we end up just having 2 kids it would be great to have one of each gender but lately I’ve been thinking about it more and I’m not so sure. When we first found out we were having a boy I knew that we’d want a girl eventually but now I kind of would just like to have all boys! I think that the camaraderie would be so fun. I know that I’m a lot closer with my sister than I am with my brother and I really want our kids to be really close!</p> <p>What about you? </p>
