Perfect Family


KatJo wrote: My son is 3 and now we are expecting a girl. To be honest at first we thought it would be cool to have 2 boys. Of course we are happy to be having a girl. But I just cant believe how many people have said "oh, a boy and a girl, you are going to have the perfect family now!" Whatever! People are so weird. huh.gif I mean, really, arent we all expecting moms just wanting to have healthy children!

Hillbilly Housewife replied: oh I get that too.... at least I used to.... emlaugh.gif

Million Dollar family they'd say.

I'd think... I'm far from that rich.... lol blink.gif

Josie83 replied: rolleyes.gif A lot of people think that. I always get asked "when are you going to give her a little brother?" My husband has three brothers, and apparently his mum used to get asked all the time if she was going to keep trying for a girl/how disappointed she must have bene when they were all boys/and poor you etc. She was always highly insulted! It is so rude!! xx

ediep replied: yup, I get that too...When are you going to give Jason a baby sister

dolfinrse replied: When we tell people that we are having a girl this time, that is what they tell us "Oh, a perfect family." Well, not for nothing, but I think our family is perfect with 1 child, 2 children, etc, and who cares what sex they are as long as they are healthy. dry.gif

Sarah&Mackenzie replied: When I was younger I always wanted a boy and a girl. Now that I have had Mackenzie I don't care what our 2nd one is as long as it is healthy. Most of the time I don't listen to what other people say!!!! rolling_smile.gif

iluvmysweetiepies replied: I get the "when are you going to try for a boy" all the time. dry.gif Every baby is a blessing no matter what gender! Just ignore it. rolleyes.gif BTW, congrats!!

Kaitlin'smom replied: well congrats to you

I also hate that statement, sorry but there is no such thing to me as the perfect family. I just get asked whens the next one wink.gif and then of course you want a boy this time?

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: I hate that...my sister has three girls and always gets "so are you thinking of getting PG again so you can have a boy??" Stupid. When I got PG, I had an old friend say to me in a really awful tone "well I guess you now have it all Rae, the perfect life, a husband, a house, a dog, and now a baby!" I wanted to say "congratulations would have been nicer!"

CONGRATS to you and yours! wub.gif

JessC replied: wavey.gif CONGRATS!! wavey.gif , I know what you mean about the "perfect family" nobodys perfect!! wacko.gif

SOUTHERN MOMMY replied: IMO every family is perfect and differant is its own little way

MomToJade&Jordan replied: Just today I was asked if we were going to try again because I'm having another girl. This person said in order to carry on the name. I was like um no that would be up to DH's brother now. Yes it would have been nice to have a little boy, but I will be happy with whatever I get as long as he/she is healthy.
