I only have 2 daughters, my husband want one though. On my end, I am not sure if I can handle a boy toddler in the future! What about you?

I have 2 sons an 8 year old and a 9 month old. I have no daughters, and have opposite worry then you. I have no idea how I would handle little girls, especially when they got older. Boys are easy, they like to play with bugs and get dirty. They are really easy to care for and so much fun! Boys and girl toddlers I think would be very similar to care for. They would need all the same neccesaties and even like to play with most of the same things. You would do great with a son and love him just like your daughters!

I have a 15 year old son, a 3 year old disabled son and a baby daughter aged 18 months old. I have found oldest son easy to handle when he was a toddler. The challenging time came in Year 2 at primary school. He was 6 to 7 years old. He used to not want to go to school then and was having trouble with all the reading and writing required. Now he is nearly at the end of secondary school and he is doing very well. He is polite, sensible and well behaved. My disabled son is upset that he is unable to walk. He has got spina bifida and hyrocephalus. He is a charming little boy. My baby daughter is delightful little girl. She is now able to walk and she began doing that for a few months now. I think that if you get pregnant and you have a baby boy when he is a toddler he will be easy to handle.

I have two daughters and I always wanted a son. I was lucky enough to have a stepson in my life. He was not around us a lot so I am not sure of what it is truly like to raise a son, but I would think that in the long run they would be a lot easier to raise as they do not have the drama that girls have.

i have a son, turning four next month. best description would be a bundle of energy and questions. affectionate and temperamental all at the same time. my wife would always ask me "where you like that when you were young?". boys may seem hard to control but if you are firm with them (like with girls) it is like a walk in the park. like being a child again with a different perspective, adult: since you are the father and kid: since you are experiencing childhood (for the second time) through your child. daughter or son they are gifts from GOD. cherish every moment with them, they are not young forever.

I have a 6-year old son and it was pretty easy to take care of him when he was a baby and most people said that cleaning a baby boy is much way faster and easier than cleaning a baby girl. However, now that he's 6, he's getting naughtier as he is learning a lot from school. I do wish to have a baby girl soon before the year ends or at the beginning of the new year.
