I did one of these posts before we found out that Baby Girl was a girl so I figured I'd do another one since we find out next week if we are team pink or blue with Baby Miller #2. I'll also show which ones were false last time and which ones were true.
1. If you carry high, it's a girl. If you carry low, it's a boy.
My Result last time: My baby bump isn't big enough just yet to tell. (I did carry pretty high last time so this one was TRUE)
My Result this time: I do feel like I am carrying lower this time so Boy.
2. If you crave sweets, it's a girl. If you crave salty or sour snacks, it's a boy.
My Result last time: I'm always craving sweets so it must be a girl! TRUE
My Result this time: The only thing I have really been craving is chocolate milk. I guess since that's sweet, its a Girl!
3. If the baby's heart rate is 140+, it's a girl. If the baby's heart rate is less than 140, it's a boy.
My Result last time: The heart rate is around 170 so it may be too early to tell. TRUE
My Result this time: Every heart rate so far has been above 140 so, it's a Girl!
4. If you have a lot of morning sickness, it's a girl. If you have no morning sickness, it's a boy.
My Result last time: I have had very little morning sickness so it must be a boy! FALSE
My Result this time: I had a ton of morning sickness so it must be a Girl!
5. If you add draino to a cup of urine and it turns green, it's a girl. If it turns blue, it's a boy.
My Result last time: I haven't tried this one yet.
My Result this time: Haven't tried it and probably won't.
6. If you have bad breakouts (acne), it's a girl. If not, it's a boy.
My Result last time: It's a girl! TRUE
My Result this time: While I wouldn't say I have bad breakouts, I think the last time I had a pimple was when I was pregnant the first time so I'm counting it. It's a Girl!
7. Gender Predictor
My Results last time: It's a boy! FALSE
My Results this time: It's a Girl!
8. Chinese Calendar.
My Results last time: It's a girl! I was 27 when we conceived in the month of March! TRUE
My Results this time: It's a Girl! I was 29 when we conceived in the month of December.
So, last time I had 5 for girl and 2 for boy. This time I have 6 for girl and 1 for boy. I guess we'll find out next week which wives tales are true this time! Blog poll shows 58% for boy and 42% for girl. With the Facebook votes included, we have 54% for boy and 46% for girl so it's very even voting!
Anyone have any creative ways that I can announce it? Something quick and easy since my appointment is in the middle of the day and I will have to go back to work afterwards? My husband won't be able to attend the ultrasound so I'd like a cute way to show him. There's no way he will be able to wait until the end of the day so I'm thinking some kind of cute picture??
Sorry...I can't help but want another little girl. More on that later.
Wow, that's a landslide on the old wives' tales!
ReplyDeleteWhen do you find out next week? We find out next Friday! My gut is that it's another girl for us too!
ReplyDeleteMy friend put a blue bow on her belly in the picture with her family last Christmas. It was cute. Maybe you can do with a pink or blue bow and put on your belly. Or, maybe you can write "I'm having a baby sister or brother" on a sign and have your daughter hold it that you can take pic of her. Good luck :-) -Jenny
