Everyone keeps telling me that moms "just know" their babies sex a lot of the time....Our A/S is in a week and a half and I feel like it's a girl, everyone else in the world thinks it's a boy, haha.
For those of you who know your baby's sex now, or have had kiddos before, did you "know" or have a gut feeling about your baby's sex? Were you right?
Just curious!
Married 11/2008. Started TTC January 2014. BFP 3/30/14. EDD 12/4/14
I was convinced nugget was a boy, but as my ob so eloquently put it when I asked if he was sure; "it's either a girl or a boy without a penis." That shut me up
Everyone thought I was having a girl last time except DH and he ended up being right. Now everyone thinks we are having a girl including DH. We shall see.
Didn't really have a gut feeling my first pregnancy.
My second pregnancy, at first I was like, "Duh, it's a boy. How could it not be?" (I already had 3 boys). Closer and closer to the anatomy scan my feelings changed and I started to get a strong feeling it was a girl. I have a daughter now.
Last time around, after a dream and some trending of cravings that reminded me of what a teenage boy might eat, I became somewhat convinced I was having a boy. I told my DH but otherwise kept it to myself until scan comfirmed, I was right.
This time I'm not sure. I know I am biased by what I want the outcome to be and I haven't had any baby dreams that I recall so all I can say is we'll see.
I'd like to say that I felt I was having a girl based off gut feeling, but can't. Once I got sick with hyperemesis and started reading about the higher chances of the sex being a girl with it, I settled into the idea that I was having a girl and I am having a girl.
I had a very strong gut feeling that this LO was a girl. So did my closest friends, my mom, and my grandma. I so strongly felt this way that DH and I had only seriously looked at girl names. Found out at 16 weeks he's a boy! (We still haven't decided on a name)
Yes, I had a gut feeling that LO was a boy around 12 weeks. Everyone else in my family was convinced I was having a girl- even DH. I was not surprised when our AS confirmed LO was a boy.
Genetics are super male dominant in both our families, but I've had dreams about a baby girl, sooo.... Give it a week-ish and we'll (hopefully) see! I'm good either way.

No. For DD i thought i was having a boy and all the old wives tales point out to me havin a boy. Everyone tells me it looks like im havin a boy. DH is fervently wishing for a boy. Now, im havin a feeling itll be a boy but i dnt knw if that's an instinct or a wish.
I thought I was having a girl but I think it was because I wanted a girl. Not long before I found out though, I started thinking boy. I really didn't know.
I had a couple dreams leading up to my anatomy scan about having a baby girl, but never felt like they were strong enough indicators that "I knew". Turns out we are having a girl so I wonder if those dreams were some sort of mother's intuition, but I did have a 50/50 chance after all.
We're welcoming a girlto our family--Audrey Kay!

I was convinced both of my babies were boys. The first time I was right and I was right again this time. However, it's a 50/50 chance so who knows, maybe I just guessed really well.

I knew with all three they were boys. I haven't had a girl though, so maybe I'd feel the same way. I have two friends with four babies each, and they said they knew with each one what they were having.

Everyone keeps asking me what I think I'm having... funny how the question comes right after I answer no to "are you going to find out the sex?". I honestly can say that I don't know. There is a very small part of me that wants a girl simply because that is where my experience lies (having both been one and babysat many little girls ) but I have no strong feeling either way as far as "knowing"
My SIL keeps saying we are both having boys (she is 8ws where I am 14w) but that is as far as the guessing has gone.
Re: Did you know?
With my first I was convinced it was a boy and she's a girl obvs. With this one I thought girl and it's a girl.
This one is throwing me off because I think it could be another girl, but DD wants a brother so my mind keeps swaying that way for her sake.
This time I'm not sure. I know I am biased by what I want the outcome to be and I haven't had any baby dreams that I recall so all I can say is we'll see.

I thought DS was a girl, he was not.
With this one, I go back and forth, some times I think girl sometimes I think boy.

I'm at 50/50. I was convinced DD1 was a boy. With DD2, I was sure she was a girl.
With this one, I have no idea. I truly have no strong feelings whether it's a boy or a girl...

With this LO the entire pregnancy had been different, so I figured a girl - I was correct.
I guess we all have a 50% chance of being right!
my happy boy
