    I 30 F have 2 daughters and am currently pregnant with my 3rd girl. We just found out this morning. On the drive to my husband's mothers house he explained how he was a bit disappointed about having a girl. But

    then he said "I should've expected this because you have 3 sisters" I explained that me having 3 sisters have nothing to do with the gender of our child. He said it's genetics and

    that I'm the reason for our daughters. I told him that's not how biology works, he said it is. He then went on the explain that his mom only has brothers and his two oldest brothers both have two sons

    because his mom's side. I told that doesn't make any since because it should be the same for him then. He said no because both of their wives have more brothers than sisters.

    He was getting frustrated but I was just laughing at him. I explained that him and his oldest two brothers have different dads, but out of his dad's 8 kids, 3 are boys and 5 are girls. The men determines the gender.

    He said that not true because the kids his dad had with his mom are all boys. He dropped it and said he'll ask his mom who has a degree in biology.

    So we get to his parents house for brunch and he asks his mom if I'm the reason we kept having girls. She told him bluntly that the men determines the gender and it's actually not a 50/50 chance. She then went on to

    explain that the more of one gender you have, the higher the chances that your next child is also going to be that gender. So he asked is it likely that he'll have a boy. She told him that if he keeps

    trying it might happen. He just walked to the car and said he's going for a drive. I received a text from him saying that I didn't have to embarrass him like that. I was so confused. Aita?

    Lost_Needleworker285 • 22h ago Nta He asked his mom not you and genetically he is the reason you keep having girls. Please don't keep having kids just because he wants a boy only have more kids if you actually want to have another daughter because chances are that's what you'll get.

    My mum wanted a boy she had 5 girls before she finally got the kid she actually wanted and although she never said she didn't want us, she did make it very clear he was her favourite whatever her prince wanted he got nothing was too good for him. I was lucky if I actually got dinner I'm not saying he wouldn't love your girls if you had a boy but don't have more kids just because he wants a boy.

    FunnyCharacter4437 • 22h ago To confirm, he's upset that "you embarrassed him" where the point of him asking his mom was to hopefully embarrass you and that backfired, so of course it's your fault. The mental gymnastics of some men. Tell him to stop trying to make you look stupid in front of his mom and then he'll stop embarrassing himself. NTA.
