Ep 12 “Oh Just Boys?” The Pressure of Gender Expectations & Raising Boys

Welcome to our 12th episode of We’ve Got This ... Maybe! The Podcast! This week, we’re talking about something a lot of parents feel, but barely say out loud: gender pressure and the emotional rollercoaster of raising just one gender. From hearing “you’ll try again for a girl, right?” to the constant “just boys?!” comments. We’re opening up about the assumptions, judgements, and even those unexpected pangs of gender disappointment. Whether you’re a parent of boys, girls, or both - you’ll relate to the pressure, the projections, and the realisation that the parenting experience doesn’t come in one perfect package.
