Oh, poor dad!

We have a 17 month old daughter and due with baby girl #2 in September. With my first, I didn’t get any negative comments throughout pregnancy. With this one, almost every conversation (with non family, especially strangers) goes like this:

Person: do you know what you’re having? Me: a girl! Person: oh how nice, your first? Me: No, second. We have a 17 month old daughter. Person: oh, poor dad!

It drives me fucking nuts. My husband is not a “poor dad” who is sad to have two daughters. Sure, he would have loved to have a boy, but he’s also thrilled to be having another daughter. He’s pretty much the best dad in the universe, and our daughters will be so lucky to see an example of what they deserve when it comes to having a good partner.

Those who have two girls- what is your go to response for this? So far I’ve just been like “nope he’s pretty excited” and try to move on. And honestly it’s probably not even worth it to get into it with a stranger, but my god is it annoying.
