Myth???

Myth???

I know it is probably just a myth: Is it true that when you are having a baby boy your stomach pops out and is more like a basketball all hard. When is girl your stomach is not hard and it doesnt pop up like the boys it stays downward. I have seen this with friends of mine. What are your experiences???

I have always heard that if you carry low and out front, it's a boy, and if you carry wide and high it's a girl.....I have no clue what I'm having based off of that! LOL. I'm kinda in between, not too low, not too high, and it's defintely all baby! I will be pleasantly suprised! lol...gotta love those old wives tales!

I'm carrying real low and round like a basketball, and am hoping for a boy...according to the OLD WIVES TALES I'm having a boy, lol.  I took a test on a website. My mom's a  nurse and I actually have heard her say something about the shape of the stomach and how high or low the baby is carried, but she said it was "very common" but not a definite thing.

Everyone I see says "let me guess its a boy I can tell the way that you're carrying"... 3 ultrasounds later she's still a girl. Myth.
