    After 2 boys, now been pregnant with No 3, I was talking to my Obs about all of the things that poeple say about having another boy, and one of my friends who have only girls said to me what on earth do I do with that! and when telling my Obs, he had 4 boys and then a girls and he had the perfect reply " what do you do with a girl??? Things could get lost up there!" LOL I must admit, I am scared stiff of having a girl and don't really understand the apprehension towards having boys. ( all of the women I know that have had girls, don't want or have been dissapoointed to find out they are having boys 2 nd time round, and I find this really disheartening and sad. As a mum of 2 boys, I wonder if these women are in no uncertain terms saying that girls are better than boys????? and that hurts!

    Relle I think you answered your own question there..... It's just a fear of the unknown IMO. You are used to having boys & aren't sure what to do with a girl, the same as Caro is used to the opposite. I highly doubt anyone is thinking that one sex is better than the other.
