How are you carrying and what are you having???

I am just wondering how everyone else is carrying and what are you having..BOY or GIRL??  When I was 23 1/2 weeks I was told I was having a girl and that was my last u/s and I am now 37w4d.  My entire family swears I am having a boy because I am all belly.  I have pictures up of my belly.  Of course I wouldn't mind if it was boy or girl, but at the same time I was told I was having a girl so we have bought everything for a girl.  I am just curious to see how many woman carried out front and was all belly and had a girl~~

I was not all belly.  I wished I was but I carried low throughout the entire pregnancy and I had a huge boy.

The women in my family carries boys out in front and girls more in the hips...this has been true in all 5 out of 7 pregnancies...the other two miscarried before I showed.  This time the baby is REALLY low....but that's becuase i've been preg. so many times, my ligaments just don't have the ooomph to hold everything up LOL....I'm having a BOY!!

I look like I have soccer bally under my shirt!! I am carrying kinda low because my little guy is still laying sideways:(  
I think the high or low is just an old wives tale...this is my 3rd boy and with the first one I carried really low and the second very high. I would go by your u/s and hope that it was right, lol. I heard that sometimes those can be wrong! So far mine have all been right though....maybe they are wrong this time and im gonna have a girl?LMAO! Wouldnt that be something? Well it looked like a boy to me so.....
Good luck with your girl!!!

I am all belly and having a boy.  I was carrying very high at first, but he has since dropped a bit.  When i was prego with my daughter I gained 70lbs, and people couldn't tell i was prego b/c the weight went everywhere.  I think it just depends on the babys.  This time i am 34 weeks and only up 4lbs!

The baby always starts out low and then moves up later in the pregnancy since your uterus is still below your belly button at 20 weeks.

This is my 4th pregnancy.  The first two I was very small and just had an outfront belly and both were boys.  The third pregnancy I lost and did not know the sex.  This fourth pregnancy I am carrying much different...kind of side to side and bigger and it is still a boy!  I found out at 10 weeks the first time.  Good luck to you!

So far I have a little pooch but nothing much. I am not sur if this is normal but he is sitting so low on me. I can barely feel him but very, very low it is rock hard and I can kinda start to feel his movements. I am 20 weeks exactly so I don't know what to think about it or how it should be but he sure does make thing uncomfortable for me.

I was all belly and had a girl. Its really just an old wives tale about how you are carrying meaning what you are having. I was worried about it too (because everyone thought I was really having a boy) that I made them re-check at 38 weeks! :)
