My mom asked me this last night... 3 kids is my max. It will be 3 girls or 2 girls and a boy!

-
Nah. I'd love to have a girl but if I ended up with all boys I would be happy.
-
Nope. In fact, I'd love to have a 2nd girl! 2 is our max.
-
Definitely not! 3 is my max, though I am leaning towards 2...so even if we have another girl next, we'll probably be done.
-
Definitely not. We've always wanted 4 and if we'd ended up having all boys that's what we'd have!
-
Nope. I think there are benefits both ways. While I think it would be cool to get to experience both a daughter and a son, it also seems more common for siblings to be closer friends if they are the same gender. So either way is cool with me. And my husband has never been the "I must have a son" type.
-
I think 3 would have been our max, but if we had 3 girls, I'm pretty sure my hubby would want to keep going until there was a boy. He's like the last of his male line and I think he would want to continue it.
-
Nope. I'm not even sure about LO#3 (which dh wants), even if LO#2 is a boy!
-
@mrsjyw: I wanna see 4-5 more of your cuties!
-
@autumnlove: and my uterus just cried
-
Nope! 2 and we are done. But we both are good with two girls.
-
Nope. Someone around here was just in the paper because they are on child 12 or 13 and all of them are boys and they just keep trying because they want a girl.
-
Up until 3 kids. That's my max. I have one boy and I'm pregnant with a 2nd boy. We'll try one more time, but if it's another boy we're still done.
But we always thought we wanted 3 kids anyway - no matter the sex.
-
Right now, 3 is my max, no matter the gender.
-
@MrsH: Oh my goodness!
-
Nope, we'd be done at 2 regardless of gender. I would have a been a tiny bit disappointed if we never had a girl though!
-
We are pretty sure we just want 2, but who knows what the future will bring! Our # won't be determined by gender though, we are just grateful for the ability to have LO's.
My grandma wanted a girl SO bad. She had 3 boys before she had my mom and said she would have stopped at 5 if she didn't get her girl bc she didn't want 'half a dozen' kids
-
I think right now 3 is my max as well. I really want a boy because there hasn't been a boy yet in DH's family and we're the last to have kids! So I have some self inflicted pressure to carry on the name!
-
Honestly, possibly! I really want a girl, and my husband really wants a boy. We'd like 3 or 4 to begin with...so I could definitely see us keep on keepin' on. Now, if that'll actually happen or not remains to be seen. We may change our minds considering we're pregnant with our first!
-
No, i think it's dangerous to keep having kids with the hope of the next one being the token gender you want.
-
No, 3 is our absolute max, however I'm good at 2. We are deciding after the next one if we are done or not.
-
My aunt and uncle did this. They had 13 (THIRTEEN!!!) girls before they had a boy.
-
@locavore_mama: us too. MIL has 3 granddaughters already!
Although I originally said I wouldn't do this...I wonder if I'd feel different if our first LO wasn't a girl. I knew I always wanted a girl, so even after 2-3 boys, I might be tempted to keep trying for a girl!
-
I don't think so but we'll see when the time comes. We think about adopting a third child later on so if the first two are the same gender, we would probably try to adopt the opposite gender for the third instead of rolling the dice on another pregnancy.
-
@septca:
@illumina: even all his cousins have girls!!! -
I don't think so. I don't like being pregnant that much.
-
No..I actually always wanted to have 2 of the same gender...I find same sex siblings share a special bond! Since I had a girl for LO#1 I hope LO2 is a girl also so C has a sister. Dh would love a boy though so we can't lose
-
No way. I am team one and done, but DH hated being an only child so.... we'll see.
-
After just having our second daughter, DH and I are considering trying again. I always wanted more than 2 but DH said we are done at 2. Until our second girl showed up lol
-
Nope, I'm two and through. I'd love a girl, but would be totally alright with another boy. My brother and SIL tried for a girl and got one after having twin boys. They're done now.
-
@septca: 13 girls?!!!!!!!
-
dh and I have always each said we only want 2, but I wonder if he'll want to try for a third if our 2nd is a girl (pregnant with our first, a girl, now). he says he won't, but we'll see!
-
No, I wouldn't.
-
Nope, 3 is our max too. I'm totally fine with all 3 boys, but would love a little princess for my husband.
-
Nope. 2 is our max so whatever we get, we get!
-
Definitely not. Pregnancy is just not my cup of tea. I think we'll be happily done with two or three and if they are all boys -- that would be fantastic! I enjoy our DS so much and actually have a hard time picturing myself as a mama to a girl!
-
Never. Honestly I don't understand preoccupation with gender.
-
My parents kept trying for a boy and ended up with 5 girls. 2 is my max, and I'm happy with my two boys.
-
No way, whatever this kiddo is, it's our last!
-
We want a big family but aren't set on a number yet other than 4+. I'd like to have at least one of each...if I already had say 6 boys, I'd probably keep going. They say it's easier at that point anyways lol.
