When you had your first (or only) baby, did you want a boy or girl? What about your SO?
I wanted a boy really bad. I always tell people I wanted a boy too much the first time because it carried over to all 4 of my pregnancies.
I had wanted a boy but I'm so so glad I got a girl. I couldn't imagine it any other way now. She is our little princess. :o)
I just wanted a healthy baby because before we found out what we were having, I found out I had a tumor and had to have surgery. DH said we were having a boy and he was right, lol.
I had wanted a boy for my first(to protect a younger sister), I had a girl and couldn't be more happy!
when i was younger i wanted a boy to help his younger sis and thinhs but when i got pregnant i wanted a girl pretty purple dresses and shoe etc lol but when i found out i was having a boy i was happy love him to death he's my big man on campus lol
and his dad got what he wanted he dont want a girl dont wanna kill her bf when she older lol

I am a 20 year old, catliolic, pro life, baby wearing, formula feeding, bitchy, Full-Time working, occassionally co-sleeping, tattooed, dye crazy hair colors, non green, vaccinating, twilight CRAZY, mommy of a 1 year old baby boy and now Titi to a unborn baby girl due dec 6 !
Of course I had the typical MOM answer: I don't care as long as "it's" happy and healthy. But I WANTED a boy. BUT I thought he was a girl! So when I found out he was a boy, I was a TAD disappointed. But now I'm thrilled. I want a girl next time :)
I'm a young (but strict) independent Mommy of one (so far). I firmly believe in CIO, front facing, semi-vaccinating, ocassional spanking/time-outs, tough love! Nothing irritates this Mommy more than immature little girls wanting a baby so badly then NOT TAKING CARE OF THEIR OWN! You give us "Young Momma's" a bad name- and we don't deserve it.
I wanted a boy and got a girl. My 2nd was a boy. If we have anymore kids I hope they are boys...I think I can only handle one girl. She is crazy!
I wanted a boy b/c there are not very many in my family. My husband wanted a boy b/c well he wanted to do those father and son things. We got the most beautiful girl instead and we couldnt be happier. :)










1st time wanted a girl got a girl 2nd time wanted a boy got a boy.
