2nd Trimester

mommy instincts.

So I'm a few days shy on 19 weeks and got this feeling that my baby is a boy. I got this last time with my daughter and was spot on. How accurate were your mommy instincts?? And what are you feeling with this one??

Re: mommy instincts.

  • The night I took the positive pregnancy test, I told my husband it was a boy.  And he is, indeed, a boy!

  • I feel this LO is a girl... but some days when I'm talking about the baby I refer to him. I flip flop at times. Mostly I feel it could be a girl... we won't know until the delivery room... so from now until September we have fun with the guesses!
    Will have to let you know then if I'm right or wrong!
  • I was right with my first two, we find out next Monday with this one so we'll see if I'm 3 for 3....

  • The first time I felt boy and it was.  This time I was 100% sure it was a girl and it is a boy.  so 50% right for me.

  • Everybody was telling me that this one was a boy. I insisted it was another girl based on how I felt and mommy instinct.

    It's a boy.

  • I felt pretty strongly that my first was a boy, and he was. I had zero feelings with this one. I suspected girl because the pregnancy was so different, but that's it.

  • I've been wrong both times. I thought out first was a girl, he was a boy. I thought this one was a boy...girl. My mommy instincts suck.

  • Right both times.
  • Felt like it was a girl from the beginning, so at the anatomy scan I was expecting the tech to say "boy". Nope, it's a girl. It's just pot luck though. You have a 50% chance of being right.

  • Ive flip flopped. Up until a week ago I've had the feeling that it was a boy. Now I've flopped over to girl. My husband has always thought girl (and so has most of our extended families).

    Hopefully I find out today at my ultrasound. I'll let you know if I'm right. I don't neccisarily believe in "Mommy instincts" when it comes to gender, but ( like old wives tales) it's fun to talk about.

    God's timing is perfect! 

  • I'm 0-2 on guessing.  Apparently my mommy instincts suck.
    :P
                                                                                      
  • We both thought it was a boy, but we're having a girl.  So bad mommy instincts here.

  • I was immediately sure it was a girl and I was right, so either I have good instincts or I was randomly right. I'm ok with either.
  • I was 100% convinced it was a girl. right up until the ultrasound tech said "and look whats between those legs"--I was shocked. I seriously thought there was no chance it was a boy.  Shows how good my mommy instincts are!! :)
  • I had no idea with my first. I didn't really know with my second but I always assumed a boy. According to the way I carried everyone said they were girls but in reality they were boys.

    With my youngest I had a strong feeling it was a girl from the moment I got a positive test and she is. I carried her the same as my boys.

    I do not believe in these mommy instincts. I think it was more a lucky guess. There was a 50% chance I would be right and those are pretty good odds.

  • When I first got pregnant I thought it would be a boy and I ended up being right.
  • This is my first, and I felt ever since about half way through my first trimester and ever since that it's a girl.  We found out Wednesday that it is in fact a girl!  I was shocked my mommy instincts were right.  :)
  • I have always thought LO was a girl and she is, so yes mine was right.
  • Initially I figured it would most likely be a boy, given my DH's family's track record for males. But then I tried to be all "scientific" about it taking into account when I ovulated vs. when we had sex and just thought for SURE it would be a girl (I ovulated 5 days later than "contact.")

    WRONG.

    It's a boy. And given his little dudes are strong enough to live that long, I may never have a girl, lol. :D

     

     

     

  • I don't believe a mom can *know* but I had dreams that I was having a girl, both before and during pregnancy so I predicted from day 1 that it would be a girl and I was right

  • Honestly, I knew it was a boy. But I kept telling everyone it was a girl because I wanted a boy so bad! It got confusing but at the end of the day, my instincts were right. I found out at 17 weeks!
  • So I have no idea if my instincts are right or not. Baby was super shy during the ultrasound and we couldn't get him/her to move for anything!
    I have to wait a month for another try.
    But everything looks super healthy so far so that's what counts. :)

  • With my first I "knew" it was a boy and I was right. This time I thought girl because my pregnancy is so different, but nope it's a boy!
