I am 10 weeks pregnant and my mom and I are anxious to find out the gender of this child so that we can start our shopping! I really hope that these old wives tales really work. This is my first child and I am really excited about planning for it.

This is my fourth child and so I very much want a son. We had or ultrasound in March and she said she is 94% sure that it is a girl. I already have 2 girls and 1 boy. This baby feels just like when I carried my son. No morning sickness, no acne, ,just very hungry .Heartbeat in the 140's .We have a 3d 4d ultrasound set for May 22nd so we are hoping to get a good look then. Regardless of what gender it is, all we really want is a healthy baby. The old wives tales say it's a boy and the Chinese calender says boy too. But the prediction tests says a girl!!!!!!

I have always heard about wives tales. My mother still lives by them and she has already told me that I am having a girl. I am only 8 weeks and I hope that she is right. This is my fourth child and my first three are boys.

I am 18 weeks pregnant. I went for my ultrasound today . I have 4 boys and I found out that there is a good chance I am having a girl. She had her little legs crossed so we couldn't get a good look, but we did not see a penis or a sac. I am very excited to have a girl.

I just found out the sex of my baby today!! I am 27 weeks and 1 day along. All my wives tale symptoms pointed to a boy, as well as my Chinese calender and everyone has been guessing that I am having a boy.
Well...guess what?!! It's a little baby girl!!!! ;)
I wanted to keep the sex a surprise until the baby was born, but my boyfriend couldn't wait so he will be excited to hear the news when he gets home today :D
I think it's really funny though, because I started to believe everything (guesses/wives tales/ Chinese calender) so much that I started to mentally prepare myself to hear the news that it's a boy..haha..
I guess you never know ;)
