\nOne son–to inherit and rule the estate…no brothers are needed to work the fields or run the business (because you’re rich) so best deal is not to have second and third sons who will not receive a birthright and will skulk around, envious, making trouble
\nOne daughter–to marry a powerful ally’s son and spread your power and influence<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/div>\nNow, I know this topic\u00a0is somewhat controversial. The most important thing is to have healthy babies; gender is secondary or of no preference to some. And\u00a0yes, I do agree that a healthy baby is way more important than gender and there’s no if’s or but’s about it.\u00a0 BUT…let’s be honest, we all secretly wish for one sex over another. I personally have this theory that I’m going to have all boys. I don’t know why, but it’s just what I think.\u00a0 My husband also\u00a0believes this and is\u00a0quite happy with it. \u00a0Even when John and I talk about our future child, we always say “he” or “Kyle’s brother”. I guess we both just have this feeling. Now, if that were to be true, I would love to have two more Kyle’s. He’s such an amazing child, I would even have 100 more (figuratively, not literally). Plus, I’m a bit of a tomboy, so I would fit in well with the boys. But, I’m also a bit of a girly girl. I love getting dressed up and doing girly things. I mean, my favourite part about watching sports\u00a0is checking out the talent \ud83d\ude09 Also, being a stay-at-home-mom<\/a>, Kyle has picked up on some of my more feminine habits.\u00a0 For example, he watches me put on face cream and mousse in my hair every morning, so he now wants to do the same whenever I do it.\u00a0 He also packs up a “bag” and\u00a0carries it whenever we go out.\u00a0 However, it’s filled with balls and cars.\u00a0 So if I were to have a (healthy) girl, I would be ecstatic as well.<\/div>\n
