Wives Tales or Taunts
Being how in possibly 2 weeks we could be finding out the gender of little babino I decided to see how accurate these wives tales could be. Clearly they're not scientific and probably not correct since I'm 6-3, but let's call it a win for GIRL.
If you are carrying high with a big, round belly, you are having a girl. If you are carrying low with a smaller belly that sticks straight out, it’s a boy. GIRLISH
Using a string, hang your wedding ring over your pregnant belly. You are having a girl if the ring swings back and forth and it’s a boy if it swings in a circle. BOTH
When your face gets fuller and rounder when pregnant, it means you’re going to have a girl. If your face is long and narrow, it’s a boy. BOY
If the baby’s heart rate is above 140 bpm, it is said that the baby will be a girl. If it is under 140 bpm, then it will be a boy. GIRL
The eye test is when a “V” or “branches” appear when you pull down the skin under your left eye. If you see a “V” or “branches” in the white part, you’re having a girl. GIRLISH (I've got 1 "branch")
This tale only applies if you have had previous kids. If you have and that child’s first word was momma, you will have a girl. If your first child’s first word was dadda, you’ll have a boy. GIRL
The Chinese Gender Chart claims to have an accuracy rate of over 90%. It is based on how old the mother is at conception and the month that she conceived. BOY
If you had a smooth pregnancy with no morning sickness, it’s a boy. If you were sick or felt really nauseous during your pregnancy, count on a girl. GIRL
If you are having headaches, you might be carrying a boy. BOY
71% of the time, the mom-to-be knows what she is having. GIRL

3 Months
Made it to 12 Weeks!! ((Happy Dance)) Baby's heart beat is high and strong at 160. Visiting with the Doctor this week left me feeling much more comfortable and confident. Although I am about to enter the danger zone for a short cervix (16-22 weeks) he has answered every possible question with rather optimistic opinions.
I will be going for bi-weekly monitoring starting now and might even be able to find out the baby's gender as soon as 2 weeks from now!
Having a better idea of what to expect now is making enjoying this pregnancy much easier rather than running scared everyday. So here's to hoping the morning sickness, headaches, and insomnia leave out along with my anxiety.
P.S. Lost 3 pounds! I was so worried because I had gained weight for my first apointment but I have now lost that and only gained a total of 2 pounds for my first trimester. ((Happy Dance Again))
