We already know the gender of this little one thanks to an early blood test, but feel free to take a guess before we officially reveal the gender!
1. If you have morning sickness, it’s a girl. If you don’t, it’s a boy.
I’ve been sick 24/7 since the first day of week 6, and while I don’t have HG this pregnancy (thank the Lord) I am very far from not having morning sickness. Result: GIRL
2. If you crave sweets, it’s a girl. Craving sour/salt? It’s a boy.
I’ve been craving a weird assortment of things, including a burger very early on (not anymore, ew), deli sandwiches, pickles, and lots of candy. Result: BOY/GIRL
3. Use a Chinese Gender Predictor to predict the sex, based on your due date and birthday.
Based on my due date and birthday, the Chinese predictor says it’s a girl. Result: GIRL
4. If the baby’s heartbeat is regularly above 140 bpm, it’s a girl. Below 140 bpm — it’s a boy.
Baby’s heart rate was routinely above 140 at each of our doctor’s appointment. Result: GIRL
5. If you prefer sleeping on your right side, it’s a girl. If you gravitate towards the left, it’s a boy.
I have been mostly sleeping on my left side this pregnancy. Result: BOY
6. If you’re extra moody, it’s a girl. If you’re even-keeled, it’s a boy.
I haven’t been too moody this pregnancy (I don’t think…) KC might have a different opinion. Result: BOY
7. If you’re clumsy, you’re having a boy. Graceful as can be? It’s a girl.
I haven’t been very clumsy lately. Result: GIRL
8. More headaches mean you’re having a boy, less means it’s a girl.
I’ve had a few more headaches recently, but this was while I was in Palm Springs where it was super hot and I was most likely not drinking enough water. Result: BOY
9. If your hands are soft, it’s a girl. If they’re dry, it’s a boy.
My hands haven’t been very dry recently (my cuticles are a mess, but that’s a whole other life issue.) Result: GIRL
10. If you’re carrying high, it’s a girl. If your belly is low, it’s a boy.
Maybe it’s too early to tell this one, I don’t know, but I’ve been carrying on the lower side to this point. Result: BOY
GIRL: 6 points BOY: 5 points
I still like Prim’s name choice– Cat. Especially since I don’t have my cat anymore (allergies). and I love cats! Perfect for a boy or girl…..
With love,
Silly Gramma Lynn
Agreed. Cat is definitely the front runner.
