Congratulations!!

A baby is a little child but big blessing from God.

Congrats to you hun! I thought both of my boys were going to be girls, until I got the ultrasound! Haha. Just goes to prove you never know. I decided from now on, whatever my guess is, it will be the opposite haha. But boys are SOOO fun and such a blessing. They always keep you busy, and never cease to amaze you. Congrats again

Are boys harder to raise?

Boys are a bit wilder in their toddler years, but girls are harder in their teens. So pretty much they switch places hahah.

Hey CONGRATULATIONS!!

Fortnately my daughter has been a pleasure and she is a teen. My two oldest who are 21 and 19 were VERY hard from birth until they left for Boot Camp for the US Army National Guard.

So, every child is different. It is my opinion that boys are harder all the way around. They are the ones in the teens who get that testosterone going and think that they are bulletproof.

But that's just my opinion from raising mine and listening to my mother-in-law about her 2 grown sons and 2 grown daughters.

I imagine as a woman, that a girl would be easier to connect with. You know, shopping, chick flicks, hair and fashion etc. But on the other hand I think boys are so much easier to deal with. They tend to vent their frustrations in more productive ways when they are younger. Boys smell, and there isn't a lot you can do about it and girls are expensive. Boys think they are invincible physically and girls think they are emotionally. But the best bit is, both will come to you to pick up the pieces!
Personally I would love to have a boy first, so he can look after my little girl when I'm not around. Check out any potential boyfriends and let me know what to expect. Lol. I'd be happy either way.
I read this week that young couples are more likely to have boys first, especially if they have sex a lot. Not sure if its true, but I'm going to bare it in mind. Lol
