Wacky Gender Guesses

I know a lot of us know what we're having, but has anyone else had someone tell you what you're gonna have? And for a weird reason?

Today at work, a woman told me I'm going to have a girl because "I'm showing in my neck." Uh, you saying I have a fat neck? What?!
Baby number 1 on the way!

Re: Wacky Gender Guesses

  • I've heard if the top of your stomach grows bigger first then it's a boy and if the bottom grows bigger first then it's a girl lol but it's just an old wives tale lol

  • I was 8 weeks and a woman at my daughter's school told me it was a girl because, "She just knows these things." According to her she's never been wrong.

  • My cousin said I was having a boy because when I was holding her newborn that's a little girl she was quiet abs content. Lol

    Rofl.  So not only does she think you've got a little guy in the oven, she thinks her little girl won't talk to boys?

  • I'm banking on a girl at this point lol because everyone keeps telling me I'm having one! (Finding out for sure tomorrow). Apparently if the heart beat is below 140 it's a boy, and above 140 it's a girl, although the this hasn't been scientifically proven. There's also a theory on morning sickness, which I've had forever. Also there's a Chinese chart that's 90% accurate. Either way, I'll be happy with a little boy or girl at this point :)

    Apparently I am having a girl because I had a boy last time and I had no losses in between so it has to be a girl.
    Yeah Mom, I'm sure it works that way! The crazy things people will believe.
  • Apparently everyone else knew I was having a boy before the doctors.  Everyone who saw my U/S pics said oh it's a boy.  Turns out they were right.  You couldn't see anything..except baby.  No anatomy.  How in the world can you figure it out from that?!

    All wives tales! Heartbeat, amount of sickness, Chinese gender predictor...although I wish they were true! In my case, each of these give me a different answer, so I've got nothing!
  • My midwife was trying to tease my husband (who has made comments about it being a boy) when she was listening to baby's HB. She said it sounded like a girl.
    Then she winked at me and whispered she's right 50% of the time.

    There's a girl I work with who swears she has a friend who guesses correctly every time.
  • I'm having a girl according to my 7 year old nephew..he predicted my two sons and his little brother as well as a family friend's baby... lol. He is completely serious about it too lol
  • My five year old nephew told me that I was having a girl because God told him so. It was so adorable! I asked if God told him he was special, he said yes. Then I asked if God told him he was cute, his response "I don't think he's ever told me that before!" We will find out in about a month if he is right or not! Haha
  • I told my 4 year old DS that soon he should be able to feel the baby kick. He said," man? I knew it was a sister" I started laughing and asked him why and he said something to the effect of, if it was a boy then he would only give high fives and not be mean. Can you tell we are working on being nice to our friends and not being a brute?
  • Some of these are adorable! My mom said it's a boy because my uterus isn't over my belly button yet. Ummm...OK mom you remember how tall I am right?
  • Everyone guessed boy for me and they were right. I don't know how but not one single person guessed girl. Kind of weird.

    A friend's mother uses the neckless with a charm trick and has apparently predicted a few before me. She used it over my first US and said it was a girl. Another said it was a girl based on the heart beat. Chinese calender says it is a boy if I do it based on my actually age and my Chinese age. Got another month or so before we find out but I secretly want to tell the friend's mom she's wrong (spiteful I know)!

    Both of my boys heartbeats were high, my first was 167-176 the whole pregnancy and this boy is 158 ... And I had morning sickness/ all day sickness for my entire first pregnancy but with this boy none ! It's all foolish :p
