I don’t mean this as a “poor me” post. But I’m definitely feeling frustrated and maybe I just need to rant. I’m a mother in my 30’s, who just had my 2nd child 2 months ago. We have 2 boys and no daughters. My first son is almost 3 years old. He’s a super energetic curious and adventurous little boy. He is also very clingy and he insists on following me everywhere. <br> <br>My newborn, is a completely different story. He’s extremely quiet and chill. He’s already sleeping through the night, constantly locked on to mom and just happy to observe and just relax. My 3 year old can’t stand to have me pay attention to his little brother. My husband tends to spend a lot of his time at work. So I’m a stay-at-home mom, who’s always on call. That being said, I’m really flustered at mothers who point out, that I’m so lucky to have 2 boys. <br> <br>I get the “you’re so lucky to have 2 boys” comments from women, mostly because I don’t have to deal with any drama regarding multiple girls. I’m so tired of hearing this from random mothers who just met me. I met one mother in my child birth class who said I’m so lucky to have 2 boys, and then she said it’s unfortunate that mothers with all girls are 2x as drama prone as mothers with all boys. I’m not sure what she meant specifically by that. But just giving you the comparison she gave me. <br> <br>But then when I was out shopping and in the grocery store a few days ago, I met a mom with 2 girls. She said oh wow you’re so lucky to have 2 boys, you don’t have to deal with drama and mothers with 2 girls are 2x as drama prone as mothers with 2 boys, and mothers with daughters are 9x as drama prone as mothers with sons, so you’re really lucky to have 2 boys. What does she mean specifically by that? I’ve never been a mom with 2 girls so I can’t relate to this. But mothers with boys have their own set of challenges. Yes, boys can be a handful and just as messy and destructive as girls. But I have double the trouble with 2 boys. I can’t imagine the drama with 2 girls. But I’ve heard it’s bad. I’m just curious if there’s any mothers here with all boys, who have gone through a similar situation. Either that or I’m just confused about why mothers are so obsessed with drama. Or mothers obsessed with the fact that I have 2 boys.
