We did this in my first BMB, and it was fun to do early because you (mostly; if you did IVF you probably know the sex) have no way of knowing. So just gut instinct:
Baby's sex: Baby's weight at birth: Baby's height/length at birth: When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: When will you first feel movement?: Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): Any other predictions?:
Baby's sex: female (we already know) Baby's weight at birth: 6 lbs 11 oz Baby's height/length at birth: 20.2 inches When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 11 weeks. Third baby problems. When will you first feel movement?: 14 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): sleepy What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): DD is April 4, and I am predicting March 30 Any other predictions?: blue eyes to start that will turn brown, blonde hair
Baby's sex: female (I am thinking this will be my third girl) Baby's weight at birth: 7.5lbs Baby's height/length at birth: 21in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 11-12 (TTM) When will you first feel movement?: 16 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): sleepy What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): 04/10 (due date 04/16) Any other predictions?: this is more of a fantasy but I am hoping to have a VBAC after 2 c-sections haha…highly unlikely.

Baby's sex: Male, even though my partner thinks it's a girl and my mom had a dream it's a girl Baby's weight at birth: 6lbs 6 oz Baby's height/length at birth: 21 in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 25 weeks (FTM) When will you first feel movement?: 20 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Super active What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): April 1st 7:00 am. Due date is April 10 Any other predictions?: The baby will look more like me
Baby's sex: I’ve just kind of had a “feeling” it’s a girl. 💝 My Chinese and Mayan birth charts also point to girl!— Not actual evidence, but still fun to look up! Honestly I would be over the moon having either a boy or girl.
Baby's weight at birth: 6 lb 5 oz— hubby and I were both smaller babies
Baby's height/length at birth: 20 in
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: This is my first, so maybe 16 or 17 weeks? That’s right around the time we plan to announce we’re pregnant. 😊 So hopefully not before then! With my body structure I have a feeling even when I start to have a “bump” it’ll still just look bloated and not actually pregnant lol.
When will you first feel movement?: 16 weeks! Right around the time we tell everyone and it’ll actually start feeling real!
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Definitely active. Thinking I’ll get lots of kicks and bladder pushes!
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): Due date is April 9– I predict baby will make me wait though! (I also ovulated later in my cycle). My guess is I’ll have an Easter baby on April 17. Probably go into labor at 2 AM and give birth (hopefully) that morning!
Any other predictions?: Baby girl will look just like mama, but with daddy’s blue eyes and smile. 🥰
Baby's sex: female (we did IVF and we don't know!) Baby's weight at birth: 7.7 Baby's height/length at birth: 20in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 14ish wks When will you first feel movement?: 16wks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): active, baby was dancing at the u/s yesterday What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDC: 4/3, I'm thinking 4/4 at 4:40 bc why not. Any other predictions?:
I filled this out and then read everyone else's. Looks like 16 wks is a good guess for movement. Lol.

"Some days are diamonds, some days are rocks, some doors are open, some roads are blocked"
Baby's sex: Female Baby's weight at birth: 8 lbs 8 oz (DS was 8-6 and my mom had similar size babies) Baby's height/length at birth: 19.5 in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 15 weeks (STM) When will you first feel movement?: 15 weeks also Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): active like DS What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is 04/13, my guess is 04/15 Any other predictions?: my water will break spontaneously again
Baby's sex: boy, but we're going to wait and be surprised!
Baby's weight at birth: 9lbs 10oz. (REALLY hope I'm wrong, but that's the pattern from previous pregnancies and husband comes from a family of HUGE babies)
Baby's height/length at birth: 21 3/4 in
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 12 weeks (have a 14mo old, so these things will probably happen fast)
When will you first feel movement?: 14wks.
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): super active
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is 4/2/2022. I'm guessing 4/2 at 1am. Both my girls were on their due date!
Any other predictions?: Since I'm super scared of, and prepared for, another crazy long labor and delivery, it wouldn't surprise me if this one decided to mess with us and show up in the car on our way to the hospital (ok, more like wishful thinking than prediction, but sticking with it!)
Baby's sex: I'm betting on a male, but honestly the morning sickness started early which is different from my boys. No idea really. Baby's weight at birth: 9lbs (first was 9lbs 5 oz, other two were 8 lbs 5 oz) Baby's height/length at birth: 21 inches When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 11 weeks people at work are already eyeing my stomach from bloat lol. When will you first feel movement?: 16 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): active! What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): due date is April 29 and I was 12 days over with my first two, 5 days over with my last. Only my last was spontaneous. I say May 9 bc it's in between the two. Between 10:30 and 2pm depending on whether it's induced or spontaneous.
Any other predictions?: That it will take me over an hour to push, as it has every time, despite everyone saying it gets easier with each kid.
Oddly enough, I actually was right on my guessed birth date last time - even though I was 4 days late.
Baby's sex: boy Baby's weight at birth: 7 lbs 5 oz Baby's height/length at birth: 21.5 in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 20 weeks When will you first feel movement?: 15 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): oh god I hope it's not SUPER active again... What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): my EDD is April 4 and I'm gonna guess April 4 Any other predictions?: Last time my labor was really fast, and I just have this feeling that this time it'll be really slow or something...
Baby's sex: male (my theory that is very loosely backed by science is that super well timed sex results in a boy, surprise pregnancies or people struggling to get pregnant on their own have girls- not including IUI/IVF) So far this theory has been pretty accurate with all my family and friends. Baby's weight at birth: 6lbs (preemie, see below) Baby's height/length at birth: 17in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: I have a PCOS belly so everyone thinks they can see it now, but really its just fat but I think I'll actually start to pop at 13 weeks. When will you first feel movement?: I'm hoping earlier than with DS; anterior placenta + IUGR I barely felt him move ever. I laughed when they asked if I was doing kick counts, I was lucky to feel him move a couple times a day all the way until he was born at 29 weeks. Hoping for 15 weeks movements this time! Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): super active! What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): Due date is Apr 7th, they won't let me go past 37 weeks and Dr said his goal is to make it to 36 weeks. So I'm estimating 35+4 for a date of Mar 6th at 8am via c-section. Any other predictions?: DH has some very prominent features given his ethnicity, so I predict that baby will look like him just like DS did. One nurse commented "well that definitely isn't the mail man's baby" Also very very bald. DS didn't have hair until he was about 2 but not sure if that's preemie related.
Length:20.5 my daughter was 21 I expected tall but might have do do planned C-section early. When will I pop? around 15 weeks
First movement around 18 weeks my daughter was a sleepy baby and moved slowly but my best memories of her was the hiccups. She frequently had them and I could feel her little body shake. I think this one will be more active but I'm hoping for small consistent movement.I never enjoy feet in my ribs. Due date: EDD is 4/23 but that's a Saturday and I'll be a planned C-section and my doctor is picky on the staff for the surgery so he normally schedules for midweek so we are out before the weekend. Other predictions: lots of hair and now I'm having flashbacks to all my previous heartburn.
Baby's sex: Female (total guess, we have a DD, I used to think I’d want one girl and one boy, but now I’m so excited for any possibility) Baby's weight at birth: 7 lb 2 oz Baby's height/length at birth: 19” When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 14 weeks (STM) When will you first feel movement?: 16 weeks, but it’ll be hard to tell. I swear I get gas bubbles that feel exactly like tiny baby kicks, even when not pregnant. Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): slightly sleepy, I saw baby on the US gently moving his/her little arms and I’m going to base everything on that 10 second observation 😆 What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD 4/6, I’ll guess 3/30 actual birthday. Any other predictions?: Precipitous labor. I was a second baby, and my mom barely made it to the hospital in time at 9 cm dilated because her contractions were so mild. I was induced during my first labor late at night and I slept through the night with mild contractions, convinced labor had stalled and that they were about to pump me full of pitocin in the morning. I was very surprised when the OB arrived and announced I was 8 cm dilated and approaching transition. Labor hit me like a tsunami a few seconds later when the OB broke the amniotic sac…
Baby's sex: female Baby's weight at birth: 7 lbs 10 oz (right between my other two, who were 7lbs 14 and 7 lbs 7) Baby's height/length at birth: 20" (the first two were both 20") When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 12 weeks, but starting to look suspicious by 11 (really, I think my body is already giving up the fight... TTM problems) When will you first feel movement?: 15-16 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): super active, just like the other two What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is Apr 5, I think Apr 8, around noon Any other predictions?:
Baby's sex: Male Baby's weight at birth: 6.9 Baby's height/length at birth: 19.5" When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 18 weeks, based off my body now it'll take some time to be convinced it's not a normal belly When will you first feel movement?: 17 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Super active, my pregnancy for my DS was already so different that I'm assuming this kid will be his opposite. During my non-stress tests with DS we couldn't count on the kicks so we had to do a lot of ultrasounds. What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): April 4th, will be a planned c-section this time so it'll be a little early. If I get pre-eclampsia again I'll have a c-section in March though Any other predictions?: This kid is going to be the opposite of my son. Not necessarily in a bad way buy I keep assuming we will try to follow a similar path as last time (sleep training, feeding, etc.) and I don't think that's going to happen
Baby's sex: According to the predictor charts- girl Baby's weight at birth: 8 lbs Baby's height/length at birth: 20 in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: I'm already fluffy so probably like 15 weeks? When will you first feel movement?: 15 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Well my son was sleepy so this one will probably be active. What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is 4/8 -- might have to do a scheduled C which would be around 4/1, but if allowed to VBAC I predict 4/9 (because it's my husband's birthday) Any other predictions?: Hopefully another brown eyed kid (to take after me haha) and maybe a redhead? We shall see
Baby's sex: Male Baby's weight at birth: 6 lbs 10 oz Baby's height/length at birth: 20 in When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 12 weeks When will you first feel movement?: 16-17 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Active! If anything like his/her brother. What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is 4/23 and this will be a scheduled RCS - so my guess is April 19 (coincidentally my 30th birthday) at 8:20 a.m. Any other predictions?: Baby will be very bald lol
Baby's sex: one boy, one girl Baby's weight at birth: both around 8 pounds Baby's height/length at birth: 20.5 inches When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: Probably 14 weeks When will you first feel movement?: 14-16 weeks. Reading up it looks like twins can be felt earlier, which makes sense, and I didn’t feel my others until 18-20 weeks. Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): I’m sure that combined they’ll be super active, lol. What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): due date is 4/4. Pretty determined to take these babies to term and my due date would have been my grandparents’ 60th wedding anniversary (my grandma died earlier this year) so I’m going to stick with 4/4. Hopefully ASAP though lol. Any other predictions?: Umm well like I said I’m hoping to give these babies as much time to bake as possible. Mostly that they’re in a variation of normal— both head down or maybe just baby b breech but nobody transverse or footling or shoulder dystocia. Wishful thinking would prefer a quicker labor but honestly just want my birth plan to progress with healthy babies and no csection!
Baby's sex: Girl… we took two Sneak Peek tests so we cheated Baby's weight at birth: 8lbs 9oz … both my boys were over 9lbs so I’m expecting my girl may be a little smaller Baby's height/length at birth: 21in When will you "pop" - already did (10 weeks) TTM When will you first feel movement?:16 weeks? Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): somewhere in between What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): Due date is Apr 4th and I’m having a planned c section at 39 weeks … so probably March 30 th first thing in the morning … 8:30 am? Any other predictions?:
She will have curly blond hair because both my husband and I did when we were little (mine is brown now though) and my older son has curly blond hair… younger son has curly light brown.
Me: 36 DH: 36 Married: October 2011 DS: January 2016 DS: May 2019 #3: April 2022
@zamoraspin2 Babies are in their own sacs so dizygotic but they told me they can’t tell me any more until my 20 week scan when they see how the placenta develops.
@hoosiermamajayden Even twins with their own sacks and placentas (di/di) can actually be monozygotic (identical), but di/di can also be dizygotic (fraternal). Every other configuration (sharing a placenta but separate sacks, or sharing placenta and sack) will be monozygotic (but identical twins are pretty rare in spontaneous pregnancies). Our RE seemed to think our twins are mo/di (sharing a placenta, each with a sack) even at the very early u/s but I’m sure it will be confirmed later if they both (hopefully) continue to grow (we know they are monozygotic because they started from one transferred embryo). Did they lay out your monitoring? I’ve heard there is a lot of extra for twins and am assuming I will have to see a high risk dr too.
ETA also, sorry for the info dump! I have a lot of friends with multiples and one of them was just telling me a couple weeks ago they actually don’t know if her di/di girls, who are almost one year old, are identical or fraternal. They look a lot alike, but she can see the differences easily - but even identical twins can look a bit different because every time the cells divide there a chance for a mutation, I find that fascinating.
@zamoraspin2 No I don’t mind at all! No one’s laid it out for me yet, I’m just going off what I found on the WebMDs of the world.
The doctor I’ve been seeing for progesterone therapy doesn’t take twins (which is kind of a nonissue because we wanted a homebirth anyway). They offered to go ahead and do another ultrasound four weeks from the last one “just to check on them” but I declined. I see my midwife on the 22nd and I’ll see from there what she wants to do and what the protocol is for the OB who oversees her, but my guess is another ultrasound around 20 weeks and then as necessary towards my due date based off how things looks, positioning, etc.
Baby's sex: I think boy or B/G twins. Hubby really wants a girl Baby's weight at birth:8lbs 2oz Baby's height/length at birth: 21 inches When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 14 weeks When will you first feel movement?: 16 weeks Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): super active What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD April 23. Im always late so Im going to go with May 2 Any other predictions?: I think there may be two in there. My last pregnancy started out as twins (only until 5-6 weeks for one of them) so we’ll see!
@zamoraspin2 lifestyle factors can also affect our appearance more than I think most people realize, and those things can result in identical twins looking pretty different from one another. For instance, the more tough the food you eat the more likely your teeth will be straight and you won't need braces. Or if you have a constantly stuffy nose as a kid and thus cannot press your tongue consistently on the roof of your mouth (because you wouldn't be able to breathe) it can affect your chin, nose and cheek shape. Or if you have anxiety and tend to bite your nails it can cause asymmetry in your face.
Baby's sex: girl Baby's weight at birth: 6 pounds 11 oz Baby's height/length at birth: 18 inches (we’re short😂) When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 12 weeks as I’m already starting to round out now When will you first feel movement?: 15 weeks hopefully Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): active when I go to sleep but sleepy during the day What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): DD 4-16 but I want to deliver the first week in April so hopefully 4/1 9:30 am
@doxiemoxie212 huh I didn't even think about how those suttle habits can make such a difference in your face. Now I'm wondering about all the things I did lol
@miss_lynn9 it's an interesting rabbit hole. Here's a youtube channel that discusses peer reviewed research on it if you're curious (it also discusses a lot of photoshop and plastic surgery since those are the industries funding the studies): https://www.youtube.com/c/QOVESStudio/videos

Any other predictions?: Precipitous labor. I was a second baby, and my mom barely made it to the hospital in time at 9 cm dilated because her contractions were so mild. I was induced during my first labor late at night and I slept through the night with mild contractions, convinced labor had stalled and that they were about to pump me full of pitocin in the morning. I was very surprised when the OB arrived and announced I was 8 cm dilated and approaching transition. Labor hit me like a tsunami a few seconds later when the OB broke the amniotic sac…
Baby's weight at birth: 7 lbs 10 oz (right between my other two, who were 7lbs 14 and 7 lbs 7)
Baby's height/length at birth: 20" (the first two were both 20")
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 12 weeks, but starting to look suspicious by 11 (really, I think my body is already giving up the fight... TTM problems)
When will you first feel movement?: 15-16 weeks
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): super active, just like the other two
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is Apr 5, I think Apr 8, around noon
Any other predictions?:
Baby's weight at birth: 6.9
Baby's height/length at birth: 19.5"
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 18 weeks, based off my body now it'll take some time to be convinced it's not a normal belly
When will you first feel movement?: 17 weeks
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Super active, my pregnancy for my DS was already so different that I'm assuming this kid will be his opposite. During my non-stress tests with DS we couldn't count on the kicks so we had to do a lot of ultrasounds.
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): April 4th, will be a planned c-section this time so it'll be a little early. If I get pre-eclampsia again I'll have a c-section in March though
Any other predictions?:
This kid is going to be the opposite of my son. Not necessarily in a bad way buy I keep assuming we will try to follow a similar path as last time (sleep training, feeding, etc.) and I don't think that's going to happen
Baby's weight at birth: 8 lbs
Baby's height/length at birth: 20 in
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: I'm already fluffy so probably like 15 weeks?
When will you first feel movement?: 15 weeks
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Well my son was sleepy so this one will probably be active.
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is 4/8 -- might have to do a scheduled C which would be around 4/1, but if allowed to VBAC I predict 4/9 (because it's my husband's birthday)
Any other predictions?: Hopefully another brown eyed kid (to take after me haha) and maybe a redhead? We shall see
Baby's sex: Male
Baby's weight at birth: 6 lbs 10 oz
Baby's height/length at birth: 20 in
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: 12 weeks
When will you first feel movement?: 16-17 weeks
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): Active! If anything like his/her brother.
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): EDD is 4/23 and this will be a scheduled RCS - so my guess is April 19 (coincidentally my 30th birthday) at 8:20 a.m.
Any other predictions?: Baby will be very bald lol
Baby's weight at birth: both around 8 pounds
Baby's height/length at birth: 20.5 inches
When will you "pop" (ie, really start to show and not be able to hide it)?: Probably 14 weeks
When will you first feel movement?: 14-16 weeks. Reading up it looks like twins can be felt earlier, which makes sense, and I didn’t feel my others until 18-20 weeks.
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): I’m sure that combined they’ll be super active, lol.
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): due date is 4/4. Pretty determined to take these babies to term and my due date would have been my grandparents’ 60th wedding anniversary (my grandma died earlier this year) so I’m going to stick with 4/4. Hopefully ASAP though lol.
Any other predictions?: Umm well like I said I’m hoping to give these babies as much time to bake as possible. Mostly that they’re in a variation of normal— both head down or maybe just baby b breech but nobody transverse or footling or shoulder dystocia. Wishful thinking would prefer a quicker labor but honestly just want my birth plan to progress with healthy babies and no csection!
Baby's weight at birth: 8lbs 9oz … both my boys were over 9lbs so I’m expecting my girl may be a little smaller
Baby's height/length at birth: 21in
When will you "pop" - already did (10 weeks) TTM
When will you first feel movement?:16 weeks?
Super active or slightly sleepy baby? (in utero): somewhere in between
What date/time will you deliver? (remind us what your EDD is): Due date is Apr 4th and I’m having a planned c section at 39 weeks … so probably March 30 th first thing in the morning … 8:30 am?
