In addition to the comments about how I need to try for a boy I also get all the comments about how crazy I am to have 2 under 2.

My youngest is almost 11 months and people always say oh one more, you need that girl. I don't mind though. I would actually like to have a daughter too but love my boys dearly and would be blessed to have another.

@MrsMccarthy: Thanks for your comments! I'm going to mention next time I hear this from someone how precious and unique each of my boys is.
I think people just want to say SOMETHING and don't realize how old it gets. I have never taken it personally. There are some interesting points here!

@mrsjyw: Yeah for little boys! Having DS #2 as well. I get asked are you having #3 to try for the girl. Or did you keep all of DS#1's stuff? Things like that. I think it's funny how every stage of your life you get asked a certain line of questions. Never ending! I guess next will be, when are you putting them in sports, have you started college funds, etc.

It doesn't end... Sorry!
And now that we have our boy, everyone feels free to tell us "now you're done!" Peanut gallery just has to comment

We have 2 girls and the only comments, since they're 22 months apart, is about having my hands full. Never comments about going for a boy. I think people can tell I'm pretty elated to be a girl mom, but it wouldn't really bug me if people asked, I'd just say we wanted 2 and got them, and now we're done.

@Mrs. Jacks: ugh! Exactly! We are done yes but we would have been done either way. So stupid and annoying!
@shellio: and a whole new person coming soon! So thrilled for you.

@MrsMccarthy: we would have been thrilled with a boy or a girl... But now it looks like we were just waiting for a boy.

Ugh, with one son who's 18 months and now twin boys coming, all I hear is "oh wow, you're going to have a crazy life." Then they ask if I'm going to try for a girl next. Yes, I'd love to have a girl - but the likelihood is that I'd try for a girl and get either another boy or another set of multiples. I'm not ready to even think that far ahead for a couple years.
PS: Can I just say that the same kind of comments regarding twins is getting SO annoying right now. I can almost predict what people will say as soon as they find out.

No, we didn't get any of those comments because everyone already knew DH wants all girls.
