    Just no. 
    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

    How I feel all of the time.

    First of all, suzysupcake, it accepted your answer because I was trying to reply and hit the wrong whatever.
    Second, I am literally never on this app so I don't know what a "badge" is and frankly, don't care.
    Third, I posted on here just for fun because I'm a FTM and wanted to see what people's theory was as we are team green, but you and your sarcastic, snarky comments have made me more aware of why I don't post on these community threads.

    @ellenjordan28 we are a very welcoming board. You don't just post a skull theory and expect a bunch of strangers to care. You had no context, just a picture of your baby.

    Also, please be protective of your information and your privacy. A username with a first and last name is not a great choice.

    @ellenjordan28 - Hello! I actually don't know what skull theory is. I think the general vibe on this board, which I think is good, is that people don't try to guess each other's baby genders. Mostly because there's really no reliable way to guess a gender besides getting the "money shot" from your doctor, or a blood test. So it's sort of pointless (besides maybe being a little fun for the mom!). 

    But I also just wanted to add a word of caution to not invest too much of your hopes or energies into any of these theories, wives tales, or predictors. None of them are proven to be accurate. I only say this because I personally "got my hopes up" and got all excited about how everything was pointing to a girl, but I'm having a boy. I wish I would not have bought into all of that hype; even the theory that a mother can "just know" -- at the end of the day it's a 50/50 crapshoot.

    Obviously not everyone will have my experiences, opinions, or reactions -- but just adding my thoughts for what it's worth.

    @law_and_little1 LO had a HB on the upper end of normal and my sister was sure that meant girl because she and other women she knew had found that old wives tail to be true (girls have faster HB's). Nope, have an excited little boy baby in there instead. I wasn't going to be disappointed either way but you're right, there's no way to know until you know.
