They had crossed their fingers for a girl and told friends to "think pink", but when their latest bundle of joy arrived he proved to be Jay and Teri Schwandt's 12th boy in a row.
Tucker Ray will now grow up with 11 bigger brothers in a household that his mother wearily admitted has "a lot of testosterone going around".
Mrs Schwandt, 38, who gave birth near Grand Rapids in the American state of Michigan, had hopefully picked out the name Jaynie for a girl.
She said afterwards: "Sometimes I feel like I'm living in a locker room. We thought maybe, maybe, you know, we're going to have a girl. Number 12 could be the one.

"Of course, there was a chuckle in the whole room. When they say 'It's a boy', I think, 'OK, no problem, I've got this, we know what we're doing'."
The couple now have enough sons to eventually field a family baseball team, with three players still left in the dug out. They already own a 15-passenger van they call the "big bus", which ferries the boys to sports matches.
Mr Schwandt, 39, who runs a land-surveying business, said: "Realistically, we knew it was going to be a boy. There was no big shock. You know, you kind of hold your breath a little bit, out pops the baby and the doctor says, 'It's a boy'."
Tucker Ray's siblings are aged 21, 17, 16, 14, 11, 10, eight, six, five, three, and 19 months.
One of them said: "After the seventh it kind of became routine."
Remarkably, Mrs Schwandt has a sister who has given birth to 10 children, all of whom are boys. Dr Bob Barbieri, a fertility expert at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, described that as a "miracle".
Mr and Mrs Schwandt were high-school sweethearts who married at the age of 18. They are devout Roman Catholics who for religious reasons do not believe in using birth control.
Mrs Schwandt said they had "not closed the door" on having more children. She told MLive.com in Michigan: "It's up to God. We figure God knows what he's doing."
Her 11-year-old son Tommy suggested: "We could adopt a girl." He added: "She'd be a tomboy."
