I think it is fun to guess and I know lots of people have their opinions or "tells" on what predicts the baby's gender. So I looked a bunch up and I'll do my best to shed some shady light :)
My Dad says that you can tell it is going to be a boy because your makeup doesn't work. The "tale" is that if you are having a girl, she steals your beauty, leaving you with acne and horrible blemishes. THAT being said, my makeup still looks awesome. Is it a girl?
Dry hands and cold feet are a sign of a boy. Every nap I've taken lately I have to wear socks or I fall asleep and wake up with cold feet. As for dry hands, I'm actually using lotion! Is it the new climate or is it a boy?
When swinging your wedding ring over your belly, if it goes in a cirlce, it will be a boy. If it swings back and forth, it'll be a girl. My ring went in circles.
If your baby's heartbeat is over 140 it's going to be a girl. Baby's first recorded heartbeat was 161. Compared to Chloe's 174. Girl or quite a bit lower....
This is one that will be funny to think about. If you crave salty and sour things, you will have a boy. I cant get enough chips and salsa in my body. Mexican food is my friend. Those of you that knew me during Chloe's pregnancy... I ate taco bell on a weekly basis... SMOTHERED in hot sauce.
According to the Mayans, if your age and the year you concieve are both even or odd, you will have a girl. If it's one and one, boy. 24---2012.
According to the Chinese, and their calculator... It is a boy.
If your husband shares in your cravings and puts on sympthy weight, you have a girl. I wanted Qdoba, he drove me there and got a burger. I wanted froyo with fruit, he got ice cream and chocolate syrup. So... are those sharing in the cravings or not? I say no.
Morning sickness is the sign of a girl!? I threw up. But I wasn't sick. I would just throw up. Randomly most of the time. With Chloe, I threw up a lot. Boy? Or circumstantial grave working?
During ultrasound one, baby would not uncross their legs no matter how many positions or how hard the tech proded. Sweet chaste little girl? ;)
Well... According to the color we have a clear winner here. If there is one I missed I'll try my best to address it if you leave it for me to review. That being said. Let me tell you where Jamie and I stand.
Jameson is team GIRL! When we were first married he told me that I would get one girl. Two weeks or so before we found out what we were having we were on a walk and he told me that he wanted a girl. We actually named Chloe the day we found out what she was going to be. Jameson told me very matter of factly that she was going to be Chloe. Which was my number one name! Then we figured the next girl would be his number one name. Not as a default thing, but it just felt right. No explanation. Jameson has recently recanted his "one girl only" statement and now really wants another one! He even said he'd be cool with all girls!
Becky is team BOY! GIRL! Alright, every mother knows the feeling. We just want a healthy baby. 10 fingers, 10 toes. That being said, I dont want a boy. I have this inherant desire to give my husand an "heir". I know, not really our century. But I find myself hoping for that. I've been hoping and pulling for boy. When the ultrasound tech said she might've seen something. Why she said that when baby never crossed their legs is beyond me. But I think that got in my head. That said. Today I was looking at some baby pics of Chloe with her and seeing her in the cute little girl clothes we have and... I admit it. My vote is swing. I would love another little girl.
10 fingers. 10 toes. That's all that matters.

My theory:
ReplyDeleteParnell sons (Ken and I) have both gone two of the same gender, then an opposite. Both of us have gone Boy, Boy, Girl. Bonnie went Boy, Boy, Boy, girl. I think you'll follow Bonnie's pattern, but with the opposite gender. Girl, Girl, Girl, Boy. One could argue that spouse DNA can alter the equation, but let's be honest, Parnell genes are pretty dominant. I'm saying Girl.
