I'd rather a boy first.

a boy first, for the big brother reasons said above, and also because that's exactly what I have and love it. I wouldn't switch them around for anything.

I guess boy-- I know DH really wants one and I don't want him to feel disappointed when LO comes out. Plus I like the idea of the protective big brother (meanwhile my brother teased me to tears for a lot of my childhood-- thanks brother!)

A girl cause now the pressure is off! I never thought I'd have a girl!

I grew up in a family of girls (5 of us all together), and I always wanted a boy first. Too much girl drama for me, and I need a break to experience what it's like being around a boy. It's so different and a lot of fun.

@yin: Wow we sound similar! We were 6 girls in our house! ... and we shared one bathroom! D:

I'd want a girl first, but the hubby wants a son first. Hubby won. Ha!

I want a girl so badly! Mr. Hedgies family is NOTHING but boys with the exception of his mother. Even she has 2 brothers. I will love my child no matter what but I am crossing my fingers for a girl. We wont know until mid April though! It is killing me!

i was the oldest, and like PP, i always wondered what it'd be like to have a big brother, so i said boy first. BUT, i really want a girl, so if we had a girl first, definitely would have made me happy knowing i got my girl. fingers crossed for #2!

We're having a girl first but DH *reaaaalllly* wanted a boy first. But everyone keeps telling me girls are easier to have first

We wanted a girl first, but got an awesome boy instead. If we get lucky on LO #2 being a girl, it'll be like my brother and I, big brother, little sister.

It's easier for a girl to wear boy hand-me-downs than it is for a boy to wear girl's stuff. Besides, I like boys better

Boy that's how I grew up and I loved having a bg brother. I still look up to him, even though we're 22 and 24 lol

Boy. Everyone in my family has girls first. I'd like to see how it would be different to have a boy first.

I want ten fingers and ten toes!

But if it were really up to me and the baby were healthy either way, I would choose boy for two reasons. First, DH and I are both the youngest and there are already 12 grandchildren between our two families, but his parents don't have a grandson yet. So we would finally have our chance to be the first at something. Second, I feel like a boy would be an easier transition into becoming a parent since they are less expensive.
