I already watch 3 boys and I have a DD. Well I put a ad of for another spot and guess what?? Another boy!! My poor DD!!!
Does anyone else have that problem with one sided gender??

I have 4 dc girls!! Every time I advertise I get another girl... I feel bad for my own boys... but they really don't mind all the girls around

I have 9 boys and four girls...one of the girls is a drop-in and the other is absent a lot...so its always about 3:1...I only had 2 girls today.

Same here. I"ve always had almost all boys. For the longest time, my grand-daughter was the only girl here, and she only comes on Fridays.

Now I have 2 boys and 1 girl. When this family started, I was so excited to finally get a girl!!

I have 5 boys, and my own 3 sons. I also have 2 girls for a couple of hours a week. I am not kidding when I say the 2 girls for a couple of hours a week are 10 times harder than the 8 boys put together (even if I had all 8 boys at the same time for the whole week!).
I would love a daycare for only boys

i have 8 boys (2 are mine , both SA) and only 2 girls. (which both are only here sporatically)

my old daycare in our other house was the same way.

and i have to admit, i kinda like it that way. i was never "girlie" and i dont always relate well to the girls i have. they seem to cry and whine and nit pick each other often, and that drives me batty. at least with the boys, they knock each other around, and then 5 minutes later they're friends again

I have 3 boys of my own plus I have 3 daycare boys and 1 girl! I did just get a call yesterday for a girl though. That'd be nice.

I definitely see a trend here....all boys for me too!!!

My question is, that when you finally do get a little girl....are you hurting for girl TOYS??? I have two toy strollers and ONE doll....the rest are tools, trucks, cars, dinosaurs, and if I see one more HAMMER I'll faint dead away!!!

because i just started inhome daycare, the 'boys' are all playing with girl stuff. The boys are 7 months, 11 months and 15 months. My DD is 2 yrs old. So its not that big of a deal YET. Tell they get a little older. Not much boy toys here :-( We're working on it, slowly but surely cause eventually i would like to have my own little boy!

Right now it's mostly boys. 10 months ago, it was mostly girls.

I did just finally get a REALLY nice set of play tools (YAY TARGET!!!!) that are going to be a hit with everyone, even my DD.

I have 6 boys and 1 girl. One of those boys is my onw, the rest are daycare. At least my girl that I have is somewhat of a tomboy, she isn't a girlie girl at all or else we would be in big trouble! LOL I have always had more boys than girls, just coincidence!

That's funny because I have the opposite! 4 girls and a boy! My DS3 is the only little guy. He doesn't really seem mind though because he just keeps on doing his thing and will play with the girls regardless.

Seems I'm the rarity. I have half and half, 2 girls, 2 boys.

I have three girls and one boy but tons of calls for boys in the future. I have two girls of my own and relate to girls more so I'm kind of bummed with all these boy request. Never know though maybe it will be easier since I agree girls do whine alot more.
