I love my boys despite the fact that they are stubborn. However, much as I would love to have a daughter, I’m okay with sons. A mother should not fuss over their children’s gender because all children are worth the love of their parents.
Annette Kato, a mother of four boys and a businesswoman
Being a mother of four boys is a blessing. Even before I became a mother, I envied women who had sons only. I believe God gave me my heart’s desire.
Each time I watch my boys playing in the compound, I give thanks to God.
Mable Wamala, mother of four girls and a businesswomanMy husband and I did not ever worry about having girls only. But I started feeling the desire to get a son when I gave birth to a girl for the fourth time. I’d like to give it one more try, and I’m positive with God’s grace, I will have a boy. I’m thankful to God for blessing me with healthy children.
Hellen Takubwa, mother of four boys and a hair dresser
After the third-born, I desperately wanted a girl, the fourth time round, but I gave birth to a boy. I gave up crying and wishing the fourth baby would be a girl. And I have no plans of getting pregnant again.
Sylvia Kabasinguzi, mother of two boys and banker
After having my first son, I wanted a girl to follow him. However, when I gave birth to a second son, I did not fuss over the baby’s sex. My boys are such a bundle of joy. I hope the next time God will bless me with a girl.
