Congrats you're having a human baby.

Edited to add: there's a 50/50 chance of having either a boy or a girl. Ramzi is no more accurate than flipping a coin.

Extra love tits for this.

Looks like a baby to me!

If it's an abdominal scan it's a boy going by his theory as the image is flipped. If it's a vaginal scan it's a girl....

All a bit of speculative fun I say! :-)

MrsPittman13

I think everyone is quite aware that this is a 50/50 thing. I don't understand the need to post snarky comments to people who are just having a bit of fun with the old wives tales/theory's about genders.

ecwk

Well @MrsPittman13 I think it's because by and large this forum is populated by women who stick to facts.The OP should know this if she lurked a little more. Predicting sex (not gender) with the Ramzi theory is as @fwtx5815 said, no more accurate than flipping a coin. And I may be in the minority here but I *genuinely* do not see the 'fun' in guessing the sex of a total stranger's baby. Like, it's the exact opposite for me. 

Edited because I apparently can't spell anymore.

MrsPittman13

If it is the exact opposite for you, then why bother clicking on a thread that is obviously about something you apparently detest so much?

As far as sticking to facts, I don't think anyone here is arguing that this theory is a fact that is actually going to "totally for sure tell them what they are having.."

Some women are capable of having a bit of fun while realizing that it is just that, a bit of fun and not to be taken seriously.

Edited: because spelling is hard.

Ah yes, I thought the old 'well why click on the thread then?' argument would come about. I hate to break it to you, but that's not the way the internet works. I replied so that the OP would see that these threads are frequently posted and in general garner the same types of responses. No disrespect meant to her. I still stick by the 'fun' thing, just because IDGAF if some random woman who has literally posted once on this website is having a girl or a boy, doesn't mean I don't like humour and fun!

I wonder if this whole idea of people only "sticking to the facts" is just how some women are acting on here or if they really go through their days, walking around, and voicing their opinions to everyone they disagree with? It kind of cracks me up.

blueeyedrose86

If some random person showed me their u/s and asked me to predict the sex, you bet your ass I'd tell them no. Or tell them to flip a coin. Whether or not it's "fun" doesn't matter. There are so many ways to "predict" the sex and people seem to really believe some of them, most of all this supposedly scientific Ramzi theory. If every Jane Preggers due in March '16 posted this crap, the board would be overrun. So, for me, discouraging this kind of stuff is more important than ignoring it and letting it be.

I could have sworn that we're all "random women" to each other to begin with. This is the internet. You don't have to agree with everything but like the pp said, it's also not required to have a snippy or rude comment about it.

Nope. By now we are a community of somewhat familiar names and more occasional posters. That's not to say we don't welcome newbies, obviously. This poster literally has ONE post. Period. This thread. Not even an introduction. Not even a hey, what's up guys? Clearly she hasn't read the Newcomer's thread and, my guess, isn't interested in being a part of the community. She just wants us to guess the sex of her baby.

kynbar5

Then you could just not participate. I tend to just not click on a thread if I'm either not interested or just don't have anything to contribute that would be helpful, nice, etc.

blueeyedrose86

Because we all want to be part of a forum full of crap like this to skip. I'd say we could just start a single thread for these kinds of posts, but as these people tend to just post without actually skimming the board for similar topics, it would just go ignored by these fly by posters anyway.

kynbar5

I understand not wanting to be overloaded with the same posts over and over. What I don't understand is being rude over something that's not agreed with or liked.

Lol not how the internet works? Anyone with a little common sense wouldn't click on a thread about something that pisses them off as much as this seems to piss you off.

Okay, seriously, whether you or anyone else likes it or not, this is a forum of random women who happen to share a common month and year of birth. If you want it to be a "familiar" community of people, then go make a private Facebook group somewhere and hang out with other "non-randoms". Sorry, this is not it. It's a public forum open to ANYONE. Just a little reality check.

So what if someone has one post. That makes zero sense. You started with one post, didn't you? Also, don't forget that some people prefer not to contribute unless they have something to say. You may be on the opposite end of that spectrum. And that's fine. Just realize not everyone is like you and it certainly does not make you better than others. Who told you that only you know what others want and don't want to see on the forum? Currently, you sound like one big Debbie-downer. It’s a little humorous and sad. I think you should just relax a little.

Well see now that's just not true. I am still a newbie on these boards, the more I click, the more I read, the more I learn about the culture of this board and the more I feel comfortable posting and like I am becoming a contributing member. I don't really need to explain myself to you anyway, we are clearly on different pages with this, and that's fine. I have not said one thing to disrespect you or the OP yet you still seem to want this side tangent argument thing to keep going. Let's just agree to disagree.

blueeyedrose86

I certainly did start with one post, an introduction. On every new board, an introduction, unless I was responding (read: contributing) to someone else's post. I really am sorry OP chose this way to start. I'm sure she's a good person and all of that, but fly by AW posts rarely go well on boards that aren't specifically for random posters, like Baby Names, Baby Showers, etc.

I can't really tell in your US! I can see the placenta in mine so I have a better idea of how it translates to the Ramzi method.

For the record, I think these little tests are fun. I'm sorry so many people jumped on you. You're allowed to be excited about your baby and entertain yourself however you like!

Just gonna leave this here. Everytime I find a thread I'm interested in it seems it's been no-no'd. Is there also a timeout room? Lol

Maybe you should try not being a troll and digging up zombie threads from weeks ago.... but that wouldn't fit with your attention seeking ways

ecwk

And here's something that illustrates how I believe many of us feel when a bullshit zombie thread is resurrected for no apparent reason other than being a total AW.



ETA someone may have asked you but I was curious as to what the bch means in your name..?

ACleanLife24

If you add vowels....

llybeck

Initially I don't think anyone was rude or snarky... Saying it is a 50/50 chance to a post marked with the word "help" who has only posted once seems like a good option because it's likely they believe this is an accurate method when really, it's not. 

To each their own, this can be fun for some and annoying for others, nothing new there. But I think by now we all know someone is going to point out that it isn't accurate. Especially after so many people have posted on this board and all over TB that this is a "scientific" method when it really isn't at all. I don't think people need to keep saying it's rude to point out a fact.

And my tired mind automatically goes to "BSC..." but it's playing tricks on me

ecwk

@ACleanLife24 well you just went right there and said what I was thinking!

PLEASE THINK OF THE KITTENS!!

Lol....and here some of us thought the point of these threads are to search for similar post and experiences. Shame on The Bump for allowing month old threads to be searchable and or not just closing them once your opinion is made clear. Shame on us all indeed.

Where did anyone say you can't search threads for similar experiences? Threads aren't just closed after a month...I'm not sure what you're getting at. No one has a problem with anyone searching for old threads...it's when you reopen one like this purely to let us all know how *you* feel and bump it to the top that it gets irritating. Evidently it's actually *you* who has a need to make your opinion clear. Just let it go...

bchgrl15

Wrong....was looking for more info on Ramzi method and you made your distaste for it quite clear. So once again, shame on the rest of us for our interest in a board topic you may not appreciate.

Did you not get enough attention yet? Maybe find a new hobby. Also, you were "looking for more info in Ramzi method" but felt the need to leave a comment that had nothing to do with the subject. Pick up a book.

But if you were just interested in the topic and finding more info, read the damn thread. Or the many other threads about this. Or Google it. It wasn't necessary to post what you did on it if you were just looking for information and you know that. It really seems like you're just trying to start things. Especially when you've been finger wagging on several posts.

bchgrl15

Finger waggin? Yet y'all continuously verbally bash these women looking for advice to get your rocks off.
Why you so mad though??

L. M. A. O. Looking for advice on the "theory" of if they're having a boy or girl?! This isn't advice and it's not fun. Once again...

bchgrl15

Tsk, tsk on the anger. It's all fun and games till someone takes everything too seriously. If anything your attempts at bullying are humorous at best.

ecwk

Lmao yeah @kynbar5, quit being such a bully!!!

bchgrl15

Atleast the Gifs are somewhat entertaining. =D>
