Gender Question

GPhiBGirl · December 2011

How many of you momma's were correct in your "gut" feeling of gender before you found out? DH and I strongly feel like it's a boy and from the wivestales I've been reading, I seem to be having a lot of the symptoms of a boy. So just curious whose instincts were right and are having what they thought they were? We find out a week from today and I'm starting to get impatient! Super Angry

(disclaimer - of course we will be completely thrilled and over-the-moon regardless of the gender)

I think sex is a 50/50....48/50 shot no matter what the instinct or old wives tale outcomes.....

KINZYD · December 2011

My gut was wrong, but DH's was correct!

FyreFlyeRush · December 2011

I was clueless with this one. "What do you think it is, Sarah?" "Ummmm, human?" But, I knew 100% with DD from the day I found out I was pregnant that I was having a girl...AND that I was going to deliver on June 21.

On a side note...OWT are 50/50. It was right with DD and wrong with Alien.

I had a feeling it would be a boy and was right but honestly thought I would be wrong (with my luck) since I felt so strongly about it being a boy. Hubby thought it was a girl and the hearbeat ould wives tale pointed towards a girl. I wouldn't believe any of the old wives tales, didn't even believe my own feelings about it. I figure I just had a lucky guess.

I was wrong. I felt girl the whole time. I was breaking out, sooo sick, tired, all of the wives tales said girl and It's A BOY!! I was honestly shocked Lol Can't wait to meet my little Benjamin.

ljtvirkus · December 2011

For me all the OWT were wrong but my gut was right.

Jazzyashes84 · December 2011

I was wrong. Plus I don't think mine was "instinct" I think it was just a huge want. lol

selockar · December 2011

I was right with DS1. I really thought this one was a girl. Everything was the opposite of my son. Turns out its another boy. I was shocked. Still am kinda shocked.

MommaJB · December 2011

My gut feeling was right. I only looked at boy items and boy names the whole time until we found out.

MrsW2000 · December 2011

My gut feeling was correct. So was the early gender prediction during my NT scan, the Chinese gender chart, and more than one of the old wives tales, lol. It's all in fun though and of course I would of still been more than thrilled had it been a boy.

imimahoney · December 2011

Honestly, from my BFP I was having dreams it was a boy.. and it is! MIL on the other hand "know 100%" that it was a girl and cried when we told her it was a boy, ha.

gervaisj6 · December 2011

I was right.

joshandpanda · December 2011

both my H and I guy were right

although closer to finding out, he was starting to stray, but still was mostly towards boy

jpcvet · December 2011

I caught myself calling her little girl several times before we found out without even meaning to. And well... she's a girl!

cwie828 · December 2011

Despite me really wanting a girl, DH and I both had a feeling it was a boy from day one. And we were RIGHT. None of the wives tales seemed to be accurate for me though. Baby's heartrate is consistently over 160, I had bad acne in first tri, I was nauseous for the first 18 weeks, etc. All those things pointed to girl but the gut was right!

This for us too! DH dreamed he was holding his son 2 weeks before we found out I was pregnant. Every dream we've each had since then, it's always been a boy. And from day 1 we've both just had that feeling. I'm using the OWT as reinforcement and convincing...lol. We'll be happy either way, but just curious what other people's thoughts were. Thanks!

KayteandRob · December 2011

I was completely sure it was a girl long before my a/s. A lot of the OWT pointed towards girl and I just had a gut feeling. Turns out I was right!

This. We both just kind of felt it was a boy the whole time. I've been calling him "him" from the beginning. Either way, we are ecstatic about our LO!

This

gigismomma · December 2011

I had a gut feeling boy because this pregnancy was very different from that of DD and I was right. As for OWT no sure if they were all correct but the gender chart here on the bump was right.

ChristieNRN · December 2011

I was wrong. I thought it was a girl. I had horrible morning sickness, the baby had a high heart rate, the heartburn was insane...I just knew it in my gut....a girl.

haha, BOY was I wrong.

I am thrilled to have a new little man in my life

stemms8810 · December 2011

I had a feeling it was a boy when I first got pregnant, then I was thinking girl in the beginning of my 2nd tri and then a few days before our a/s I kept having a feeling it was a boy. I guess my feelings of a boy were correct!

starrynight1658 · December 2011

I just knew from the start this baby is a boy, and I was right. I didn't really look at any OWT, so I'm not sure if they would have been "right" or not...

easjer05 · December 2011

The instinct was wrong with my first child, save for one clear moment of subconscious guessing boy. The instinct was correct with this child, but with one moment of thinking it might be the other sex. We said from before we got pregnant, from the hpt, all the way through to the blood test and eventual confirmation we thought it was X and it was X.

But we were the only two who thought girl for Gabriel, and were clearly very wrong there, so even instinct isn't right on.

mrsr708 · December 2011

I was wrong...I thought it was a boy. But at our gender reveal party when we cut into the cake it was PINK cake. When we looked at the ultrasound pictures that the tech had put in a sealed envelop it was definitely all girl.

easjer05 · December 2011

Oh and in terms of OWT - they were a mixed bag. Chinese chart was right (and oddly, they all agreed - with my son, half were boy and half were girl). HR was wrong in both this pregnancy and my son's.

daddysgrl2317 · December 2011

All of the old wives tales were wrong for me and my gut was wrong until the day before my a/s and then I somehow knew I was wrong... DH didn't have a guess.

coldenka · December 2011

DH and I both thought girl. The old wives tales and the Chinese Gender Chart also said girl.

We we will welcoming a bouncing baby boy in May!

Somethingclever25 · December 2011

My gut and strong feelings were wrong. 3 times!

balibaby · December 2011

I was right with all three- maybe I'm psychic:)

kami1977 · December 2011

Still haven't had our A/S for this one but with DS from the moment I found I was pregnant I thought he was a boy. I'm not as sure with this one but I'm thinking boy. I don't know how the old wives tales turned out because I didn't pay much attention to them. Though this pregnancy is different from my last.

JNoelleE · December 2011

I thought for sure we were having a girl and ALL of the wives tales said so too. We are having a boy!

sweetsugarmama · December 2011

With DD I knew. I had thought I wanted a boy but kept having girl dreams. I think it was someone's way of getting me used to the idea. So when they said girl at the u/s I said, uh huh. The tech said I didn't sound excited, I said I just knew.

With these guys I thought there was one boy, but never imagined two in htere!
