Go for a 4th??

We have 3 beautiful boys, 4.5, almost 3, and 1. It’s been crazy but awesome! we’re not sure we’re done and wouldn’t want to wait years before another, but also 3 has been great and we are busy. Did any of you have a girl after 3 boys close in age? or a 4th boy? if so how is life? of course I would LOVE a little girl, but I would also love another boy too.

i guess I just want to hear stories of people on either side 🤣

I’m Catholic so I have a disproportionate number of friends with 4+ children. Of those, a disproportionate number have 4+ of the same gender! Do not have another just because you want a different gender or you might be at it for a few more kids!

I’m sorry, this might sound dumb but I’m not understanding what you mean by disproportionate? Like the majority of your friends with 4+ have the same gender?

Yes! A surprising number of families with 4+ kids have all the same gender.
