    Well, my other sister found out yesterday that she is having a ... Girl! So that's all girls in our family for 2012.

    We'll have to wait a couple more years to see if the boy drought can be broken in our family. In the meantime, our girls are going to have so much fun together!

    So both your sisters are having girls this year? That will be lovely, being so close in age to DD2.

    Oh, Jen, I'm jealous on your girls' behalf! I always wanted girl cousins and never had any!

    Beautitude - get your DH on a bike. All of our cycling friends have girls, I've never found anything to confirm it as anything better than an urban legend, but DH rode 200km the weekend our little girl was conceived.

    Getting on a bike sounds like a good option. Or he could take up smoking! My DH was a smoker when we conceived our DD. Since quitting, we have had 3 sons.

    Apparently radiographers are more likely to have girls.

    Jen, my dad and his brother have 8 children between them - 7 girls and only 1 boy! My mum is one of 4 girls. Maybe I am part of the generation to 'even' it out!

    I think the bike theory is a good one. I read that gender swaying for a girl can be helped if the man wears tight underwear or has a super hot bath to kill off a few of the weak sperm before sex. The weak sex are male sperm, the strong long living sperm are girls So makes sense radiographers have girls too... guess my H's cushy desk job explains our boys
