For your first child, do you want it to be a boy or a girl?

Me? I want it to be a boy. Having your first child as a girl is troublesome. No older brother could protect her, I would become overprotective just like other typical parents towards their first daughter. I don't want to be like that. So it is better to have my first child as a boy. How about you?

Well, i had my first child, my son (though i wanted a girl). Well i dont think it really matters which gender you have first...a child is a child...its a blessing in every way.

I have two kids and I didn't have any preferences for the first one to turn into a boy or a girl.Only thing I expect to have a healthy child.My first one came out as a girl and I can't express the delight to see her.It is so good to see my child apart from gender.Then my second one came as a boy and I enjoy his arrival too.I don't believe in calculations,who will back up who.Just kids brings us happiness and make our lives more meaningful.That's all.Cheers!

I would like to have a daughter. It doesn't really matter whether my first child is a boy or a girl. It's true that, if I first have a son, followed by a daughter, then my son will be able to protect his younger sister. However, it really doesn't make much difference, as I'm going to love them just as much.
