We don't have any children, so that may change once we do if we have a girl first...but I know that when we do get pregnant he'll hope it's a boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1145705 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:59:00 +0000 MsLipGloss 1145705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. If we have a second, he would love another little girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1145702 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:58:24 +0000 PointeShoesTutus 1145702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think he'd be disappointed but he wouldn't ask to "try for a boy" if we were done having kids. He really wants to continue the family tradition of First Middle LastName IV since he is the III but if all we have are healthy girl embryos (we have to do IVF with genetic testing), he will be thrilled with healthy baby girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1145647 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:40:48 +0000 nana87 1145647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do think he'd be disappointed, he really wants a boy someday. Or at least, before we were having a baby, he would also refer to the hypothetical future baby as a boy :wink: But now that I am pregnant, he says he doesn't care about the sex, just a healthy baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1145550 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:05:51 +0000 Vegmama 1145550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I think the ONLY reason we'd be bummed about not having a boy is that we have two REALLY good names picked out! ;) Otherwise, we're happy with either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1145012 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 09:31:50 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1145012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup i think so. but i'm really glad we have one of each. charlie is so bonded to mr. bee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144995 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 09:28:15 +0000 Koolbreeze 1144995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think he would have been mostly disappointed his family name would end. He only has sisters so he felt it was up to him to keep it going. Well, he's got 2 boys now so he's happy! Other than that though, I don't think he would have cared. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144935 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 09:13:18 +0000 yellowbird 1144935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think my DH may be disappointed for a short while, but he would get over it. He loves our little girl more than anything. He would be absolutely great with all girls! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144879 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:57:36 +0000 yoursilverlining 1144879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He wanted a daughter more than a son, and only wanted one child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144858 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:49:46 +0000 petunia354 1144858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He didn't care. But now that we do have a son, he completely enamored with him. I love seeing my boys together!! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144856 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:48:44 +0000 looch 1144856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is hard to say because we have a son, but I would like to think it wouldn't have mattered to him. We are only having this one, and I don't think he longs for a daughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144849 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:47:10 +0000 mrs. bird 1144849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He'd be fine with it, he talks about how he feels like he'll have an easier time being close to a daughter. I think he'd be disappointed if he didn't get to have a girl &amp; he'd be fine without a son. His family on the other hand would not be as accepting of all girls. I don't have any preference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144828 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:38:09 +0000 autumnlove 1144828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think he might have a slight preference for a son for our third but he will be happy with another girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144822 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:34:01 +0000 Mrsbells 1144822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH doesnt care about the gender at all </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144821 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:33:40 +0000 hilsy85 1144821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He is thrilled that we have a boy...he would definitely be disappointed if we hadn't ever had a son. As would I! I really want both a boy and a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144820 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:33:36 +0000 MrsKoala 1144820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think mine would be disappointed. He really does want a son at some point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144815 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 08:30:09 +0000 blackbird 1144815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH really really wants a boy. We want three biological children, so hopefully one of them is a boy. If not, we've talked about adopting a boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144556 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 02:52:46 +0000 Purpledaisy 1144556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before we had our daughter he really wanted to at least have one boy. Now that our daughter is here he said that he wouldn't mind having all girls :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144552 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 02:47:14 +0000 PrincessBaby 1144552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH would be thrilled with a whole houseful of little girls:). Sometimes he says he wants FIVE! Cue me passing out, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144548 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 02:42:02 +0000 lamariniere 1144548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH wanted a daughter the first time around and we got a son. He's getting his daughter this time though. :-) I'm sure he would have been happy with all girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144531 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 02:04:40 +0000 SAHM0811 1144531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! He was hoping for girls both times and that's what we got! </p> <p>The comments about wishing for a boy can be annoying. If we have a third, it's not based on that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144528 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 01:59:10 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1144528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. All he wants is DD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144482 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 00:38:13 +0000 Penny Lane 1144482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think so! He was just super stoked to be a dad! We've ended up with 2 boys (one on the way) so far anyway though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144473 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 00:13:29 +0000 BoogieBea 1144473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally fine. He adores our little girl. We do have a son though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144470 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 00:06:14 +0000 sunny 1144470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think he cares either way! I think we're on the same page that a sister for DD would be great, as would a brother :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144446 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 23:24:03 +0000 HLK208 1144446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think he would have been fine with girls but he was so excited to have a boy! Although, I think DD and DH are closer just because DD adores her dad (more so than DS). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144440 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 23:18:57 +0000 Running Elley 1144440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine would have been disappointed initially but it's not something that he'd hold onto. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144438 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 23:17:31 +0000 SweetMamaM 1144438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to talk about two,maybe three if we had two of the same... We're now both solidly in the two and through camp, and have discussed that we'll just be happy with whatever we are given :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144271 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 21:25:56 +0000 dolphin 1144271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, DH wants all girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-your-husband-be-ok-if-he-never-had-a-son/page/2#post-1144186 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 20:59:57 +0000 boots 1144186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband never wants a son. He was SO excited when we found out DD was a girl. If we have more LOs he wants them to be girls too lol. </p>
