Carrying "high" or "low" (girl vs. boy)

llizzyb · January 2012

Is the old wives' tale of carrying high with a girl or low with a boy true for you? ALL my coworkers like to comment on how low I'm carrying, and most of them throw in, "Well of course it's because you're having a boy." I don't put any stock in that OWT, but was curious how many of us it applies to.

I dunno, I'm on the short side, (5'1") so maybe there is no high or low for me.... I only have so much middle!

It's all a myth...I am usually high/middle....boy and girl

I've been told I'm carrying low which surprises me because I'm a little short (5'3") with a very short torso. I also am having a boy, but I also dont hold any stock in OWTs...

Carried my daughter very high and carrying this boy very low.

I am carrying my little boy pretty low. People keep telling me I look like I am having a boy.

All three pregnancies I carried high, I am expecting my 3rd girl.

I feel like this baby girl is way lower then my boys were. So for me it is false.

I carried WAY higher last time but both are girls.

I'm carrying on the higher side, and it's a girl.

I felt like I carried Ella higher, but this time I *think* I'm lower with baby girl #2.

This boy is pretty low and I'm tall so he has plenty of room to be where ever.

This!

I am carrying high/middle with this boy. I found the OWT to be true with my sister and her kids.

I'm carrying low, and im having a girl :-)

wwnbw · January 2012

I'm carrying lower this time and it's a boy last time was a girl.

I feel like I'm carrying low, and LO is a boy. I haven't felt any rib kicks, all the movement has been consistently belly button height and down.

I'm carrying low and it's a boy. In Oct I had a family relative say that I'm having a boy based on how I was shaped. She was correct!

carawestt · January 2012

I'm carrying low and having a boy. Everytime someone sees me they say "that's definitely a boy belly!" But I don't believe in the OWT. My friend had a boy and he was up high the whole time.

Monkeybabe · January 2012

My sister and I are two weeks apart in our pregnancies. I'm carrying low and having a girl, she's carrying high and having a boy, lol.

krystalxyz · January 2012

I'm 5'2" and carrying low I guess. I had a stranger in an elevator ask me if I was having a boy, so she must listen to the OWT and thinks I'm carrying low.

I'm carrying very low and 3 different ultrasounds all say it's a girl. I have old ladies question it all the time because of that old wife's tale.

It's a myth just like everything else. As far as I go I carried fairly high with all my girls and I'm carrying low-ish with this one but I THINK it's another girl (team green).
