It's another Boy!

Well, it looks like we'll be having another little boy! I'm scared to death that he and my 4 year old are going to burn my house down or something equally as horrible when they get older! :P

I cried a little because I wasn't having a girl, because this is definitely the last baby I'm having, but I got over it relatively quickly.  Until my husband sighs that he'll never know how it is to walk his little girl down the aisle... Then I start crying again. Oh boy... here I go.

We'll be naming him Cory. (middle name still under negotiations)

He's currently kicking the heck out of me.  Ever since I found out it was a boy he seems to be kicking me every 2 minutes!

Congrats!!! Boys are amazing! I have 2 DS that are 15 & 17, and when I found out I was having another boy, I was dissapointed, but the 2 of them have brought me MORE joy than words can express! I wouldn't change it for the world. Boys are the best!

Your DH can watch your sons walk one of their daughters down the aisle someday, and that should bring just as much joy!

I hope I get to feel that kicking if I make it that far!

It's crazy how many boys there will be in October.  By reading the posts on the October forum, majority of mom are expecting boys.

I know how you feel, I am on my second (and probably last baby) boy too! I never thought about the walking down the isle though ;-(  that almost made me cry...
Anyway, think about how close the brothers will be. I think that's wonderful too! I know my 6 year old was sooo happy to find out he was having a brother. He has asked Santa for a baby brother 2 years in a row now ;-)

Congrats on the boy!!  I have an 18yr old daughter and an almost 2yr old son.  I am also at 30 weeks w/ another boy.  My husband was ecstatic!!!  After having to raise a girl he is soooooo glad to have some boys.  Honestly, I am too.  My daughter is great, dont get me wrong.....oh but the emotional roller coaster from 12 on is quite a ride!!!  Everyday I prayed that she would not get pregnant or do drugs (well that one would go for boys too) and that she would be a nice respectful girl.   She is but ooooooo man, seriously...she gave us quite an exciting few years.  I am so glad to have my lil men.  :)  You will be too!!!

Congrats,  2 weeks ago I was going through the exact same thing when I found out that we're having 2 boys....talk about double trouble :)
But now I got used to the idea, and I'm actually very excited.

Hi there congrats on your boy!  I have 3 boys and we are TTC our 4th child and to be honest with you, I would love a girl but would be so happy and blessed with another boy, so long as they are healthy.  Boys are a lot of fun and they are always mommy's boys!

Sorry you feel a tad bit down over no girl, but so happy for you that so far all is well. SIL just had a second boy in april, and also had hoped for a girl.  Of course the second she saw him, he was exactly the baby she wanted..lol.  Best of luck to you...oh, and love the name!!
