We're having a girl. Her name is Cora.

My wife went through "gender dissapointment". She really wanted a boy, which I thought was silly at first then realized it was a serious thing with her. She's ok with it now.

A woman at work went through the same thing when her 2nd baby was a boy (she already had a boy). My wife declared she wanted to try again and whatever we get we'll live with. I'm ok with trying for another. We got pregnant on the first try, so I want to see if I can actually go 2-0, which would be hilarious.

Solid brag

I have 3-0

Then my wife said I had to have a vasectomy.

I'm super-impressed by how well men take having a girl.

I was so worried when the nurse called to inform me that it was a girl. My partner is a huntin', fishin' manly man and I thought he'd be disappointed that the months of talking to Ryan Jr. were for naught...but he just made a seamless transition to talking to "his little princess", and actually seems somehow prouder...like he's the big protector of us all.

I definitely did not give future Daddies enough credit.

I'm fairly manly but I would love a daughter. One who brings bf's home to meet me and I'm there polishing my gun.

I'm 100% going to do this.

Me too. Chrome plated shotgun. And he.ll be sitting between her two BIG brothers.

I somewhat wanted a boy, but I think families have more of a loving atmosphere with more women in them. I've been around families with mostly men, and dinner time is much more of a quiet eat-as-fast-and-as-much-as-you-can event, whereas with more women around it's a lot of laughter and talking.

I know we complain about that quite often, but it really is nice to have that environment. Besides.. I won't be around very long, so a daughter will help take care of my wife when I'm gone, as depressing as that sounds. Men get married and do their own thing.

Obviously a lot of stereotypes, but it really does seem to hold true.

Yeah.. I'm somewhat worried about this. I'm overly protective in general, I don't want to make my daughter miserable.

But I will.

Not overly protective at all. It will go one of two ways:

1. Kid turns, runs, stammers and makes an idiot out of himself.
2. Kid asks if I'm going hunting. I say yes. He asks more questions. I take daughter and her boyfriend hunting.

I'm looking for kid #2.

I'd be happy with a kid who actually comes in and introduces himself properly. It seems basic things like that are hard to find these days.

I have a boy now and kid 2 due in March. I have a feeling it's a girl, but won't know until October.

Wiping poop the other way is going to take some getting used to.

Dude, trust me, wiping direction is the least of your worries...you'll see what I mean

At hospital having our first born in the next few hours!
