"I hope that boy doesn't have a vagina!"

That's what my grandmother said to me yesterday b/c when I talk about the baby I use masculine terms - he/his/him. She thinks I shouldn't get my hopes up too high, and I'm not, it's just wishful thinking. When I talk to the baby I do try to say non-gender nicknames like peanut or little bug, but I just have a feeling that it's a boy. Anyway, just thought I'd share the funny.

    Ha!  Sometimes we refer to LO as "he" though we really don't care either way.  In fact, my first inclination was to think it is a girl!  It's just easier sometimes to pick one and go with it!

    I tend to call mine "he" too, maternal instinct!

    I do the same thing. I just can't hep it.   My sister is convinced it's going to be a girl and she keeps saying your little is going to a girl....

    That's tunny!  One of my mom's friends told me I shouldnt use masculine terms when talking about the baby but I do.  I have a feeling its a boy too...I shut her up by telling her I am just using the "literary He"...both she and my mother are reading specialists-She didnt say anything else after that.
