Hah, that sounded funny in my head.

Anyway, I'm a new player. I started playing on Saturday and to be honest, I've done nothing else since! I have school tomorrow (today there was a strike) and I'm already worried about how I'll manage!

My tribe is not that old, obviously. I have a population of 20, including 5 children and 2 babies.

Now my problem. My last babies have all been boys. I've had 8 boys in a row now. Before that, only 2 girls. The rest are the original villagers or boys. I'm really hoping at least one of the two current babies will turn out to be a girl, otherwise I'll be in trouble and hoping for a barrel of babies!

Have any of you had this happen?

Yes! In fact at one point I only had one female.

I finally lucked out and had two or three girls in a row and was able to save the tribe.

Yay! At least one of the babies is a girl. Her name is Atepa and she's cute. Even though she seems to be one of those creepy white faced villagers. She dislikes swimming, so no farming future for little Atepa.

I know, but I'm way too fond of the girls in the game. They get away with a lot! My favourite villager (Atepa's mom) pretty much gets to do what she wants.

The second mother gave birth to a girl, too \:\) Hakea and she has a really big head, haha.

I am also in that situation, except all mine are girls.
I need a barrel-ful or 2 of boys but knowing my luck it would be all more girls.

I am having this boy problem too.
I have been playing this game for 336 hrs, have 3 totems, 15 of 16 puzzles solved, with the 16th started(hospital), but have only been able to get my population up to 27, because I have only 4 females, 2 of childbearing years. I am inundated with food supplies(4435), and have had to make everyone stop harvesting so I can use some of them up.
If anyone has any ideas...

Hope for a barrel of babies or a couple to fall down the waterfall.

I just had a strike last month in our school.
Boys/girls are random, but you can hope for a event that will hopefully bring babies
