what 'olde wives tales' and 'sage advice' have you heard about telling if a baby is a GIRL or a BOY before it is born?

if you are round like a basketball its a boy, like a watermelon its a girl.

if your looks kinda decay while you are pregnant its a girl because she is sucking all your beauty to make her beautiful! LOL!

if you crave salty its a boy, sweet its a girl.

there are so many though!

If you really like... and I mean REALLY like your man, like call him and want to come home for lunch at 10:00 am and not leave until 2:00 then it's a girl. If you think he is pretty yucky and wish he would just sleep on the couch.. It's a boy.

Someone just "read" my belly and said it would be a girl because I'm carrying high. However, I'm rounder than I was with my girls (I have two girls) and I'm craving salty/savory things.

We'll find out in February and I'll let you know which advice to believe!!

If you gain all your weight in the front, then it's a boy...if you gain all over (butt, legs, etc...) then a girl. I heard that from my mom. She was right about my 3rd baby though..I gained all in my belly and had a boy....

I have always heard it will for sure be either a boy or a girl. :)

Anyway, I have also heard that if you carry high it is a girl, and if you carry low, it is a boy. My girl was so up in my ribs, I could hardly breathe.

I understand that Jeannie, I really do. It would be so lovely to hold a little newborn again, wrapped in a warm housecoat against your body.
Ok I'm awake now...NO WAY! I will make a wonderful Gramma! lol
