Every boy mom knows that while you love your little rugrats, it can be a struggle to be the only woman in the house. Luckily for Alexis Brett, it looks like the 11th time's the charm. The mom from England just gave birth to her first daughter after having 10 (yes 10!) boys in a row.
When mom finally has a girl
Don’t judge their large brood
"I'm an only child myself and I'd never planned to have a large family, but now that I do, I love it. I always joked I wouldn't have a clue what to do with a girl anyway but that's all changed now, of course, and I have to admit that we're having a lot of fun buying pink things for the first time,” she continued.
The mom says she occasionally gets judged for her large brood. “Of course, we do get comments about the number of children we have,” she said. “But it doesn't bother me what people think. We're well used to it. Some people think we must be on benefits, but we're not. David has a good job which means we don't even qualify for full child benefits.”
The mom shared that for now, Cameron will sleep in a crib in her parents’ room, but eventually she’ll get her own space in their five bedroom home once some of her older brothers move out of the house.
Even though Cameron’s birth means it will be a bit more of a tight squeeze in their home, Brett said she doesn’t mind. “David and I do look at each other sometimes to say 'What have we done?' … but we could never imagine life with a small family now.”
