I don't think anyone knows what "Normal" is. I would say this as long as you can afford to keep having kids and you love them all then who cares. If you treat your daughters different because they are not boys or you are simply having kids just to have a boy you might want to stop. But, if everytime you have a girl you love her just as much as the last and you want to keep having kids more power to you.

Hopefully, you are in a position to support all these kids? If you are not and receiving any type of public assistance, then that is just not right. Three kids in this day and age should be the limit.
You sound like a baby factory, creating kids to fulfil your wish to have a boy. It doesn't sound right to me. Kind of selfish and egotistical if you ask me. Sort of like buying a pair of shoes - they don't fit - put them on the shelf and try another pair.
Your husband carries the gene that determines the sex. After 14 kids, I'd adopt a baby boy. How's your body holding up? Does he even care about your health?

Kids stress you out and boys are much more trouble than girls.
Those are alot of kids, you'll probally run out of names annyway. But if and when you get your boy name him Kaleb. Thats a curly headed name.
I say if and WHEN because youve had this many and chances are youre not gonna stop now. When its all said and done at the end of the day youre still gonna want that boy.
Go for it if thats what you really want.

I read once that is the male who determines the gender. The sperm make the child male or female. The article said that men whose body temperature is warmer in the genital region tend to create more males. It was some medical article I read a while ago. Look it up online. It must be out there somewhere.
As for normal, I don't see why not. As long as you can afford it and the children are not wanting for food, medical care and shelter and you are not just sitting home on tax dollars making babies, then you feel free to have all the babies you want as long as you are financially and emotionally supporting them.

Jesus.
How many children were you initially planning to have?
With 4 kids already, a boy is not worth any more trouble.
But while at this, let me say that a soccer player from my country who became the father of 3 girls (from 3 childbirths), decided to adopt a boy afterwards.
All the best.

Are you telling the truth? Any way if you can provide for the m(and the state isn't) than why not. If your kids are loved and have every thing they need (and I guess one of you must be a stay at home parent) you should go for it! But what if you have another girl. Or you have 19 and still no boys. The older you get the risk of a mentally challenged baby, and he might feel left out with umpteen sisters!

SORRY, yea, come on, if you wanted a boy so badly? adopt a boy who has NO mom, NO dad, NO siblings, rather than keep popping them out. I have 4 and that was an expense as it was and now that they are much older the expense gets bigger and bigger. I come from 5 siblings myself and love having 4 kids, but sort of get exhausted now with all of them doing something and getting married and having kids and graduating colleges etc etc and the drama never ends. I think your kids will resent coming from a large family JUST to have a boy??...can you even or had you even contemplated giving of your HEART and time to a child that YOu didnt produce like a litter? sorry...but........just dont get it...I just think of those people who would kill for just ONE of your daughters , not to keep doing it in hopes of a boy...YUCK...but then again, not being too judgemental. what is normal for you is not necessarily normal for others...sorry to soapbox this answer, but with the lack of good parents for so many kids out there already and the lack of good parents having at least ONE of their own, its rather selfish of what you are doing...dont get the point if there is one?....

Do what you want. It's your choice. Just like people can be pro-choice about abortion, the pendulum swings the other way as well in my opinion. It' all about CHOICE. The only thing I would worry about, is if you can actually afford all the children. Just one can be a huge money guzzler, so I can imagine what 14 would be like. That's the only thing I would caution you about. But if you can afford them, and they are happy and well-cared for, go for it! I would like a big family myself, though I don't think I could do 14- but you never know!.

And are you going to keep going if this is another girl? I mean, do you have a limit in mind or are you just gonna keep having kids until there is a boy? I would say there needs to come a time when you say "okay, it doesnt look like we are meant to have a boy".

You live in a house full of bit*hes! Ha ha!
But if you have that many kids one more isnt going to make a difference. And if you want to make sure you have a boy I would suggest adoption. Odds are you will have another girl.
