Mother's with a boy and girl already!

From your personal experience which sex (baby) did the most crying as a newborn? Some say girls are cry babies but I don't know because I have two boys but I'm pregnant with a girl.

I had one newborn, my daughter and she was the best baby. I hope this baby is like that too. I cant deal with too much screaming

I don't know about newborns but as toddlers my boy is DEFINITELY easier. My daughter needs to have all the attention and follows me everywhere and wants everything I have and to do everything I'm doing lol my son is more self sufficient.

I have 2 girls and one boy with another  boy on the way and my son was my easiest. However my first lil girl was easy till she got colic then she got crabby and my second lil girl cried all day long till her daddy got home because she always wanted her dad.

I agree, my boys were great babies, besides the crying in the middle of the night. I believe they kind of feed of their parents, if we're upset or uncomfortable they tend to act uneasy sometimes

I am a ftm but I've worked in PEDs for 7 years and I can tell you boys and girls can both be really good and can both be really bad. It all depends on the baby. I have noticed though that the calmer the parent the calmer the baby, usually. Of course things like colic and whatnot can make them upset too but I don't think there is one sex that cries more than the other.
