I agree with everyone because my 1st two pregnancies I was all stomach n had boys now I'm only 3 months n gained 11 lbs in a month and my stomach n hips are so wide. Also I've been really nauseous never had that with my boys, so it might be s girl this go around!

With both my baby's I was ALL belly. Seriously looked like I swallowed a basketball. With my first I had hardly any morning sickness, didn't want sex and gained more weight it my face. It was a girl. With my second I had horrific mornbg sickness, wanted sex all the time and gained no extra weight in my face. I was sure because the pregnancies were so different that I had to be having a boy. Nope. She was also a girl. Moral of the story is each pregnancy is different and there aren't any signs to indicate which gender your baby will be. Even the heartbeat rule is wrong because babies heartratrs change based on what they are doing. If they are awake and kicking all over the place its going to be significantly higher then a baby who is sleeping

According to all those old wives tales that my friends had told me I was having a girl.... U/S shows its a BOY. They even did the ring test. the string test, lost of funny things.  I think it all just depends.  2 U/S later and I'm pretty sure that yup its a boy and he wanted that thing flashed around.

I had 2 boys and was all belly. One I had morning sickness the other I didn't. I'm 8 weeks now and feel like the weight is piling on already. I'm hoping from all the comments that means its a girl.

Of course we all know ultrasound is the definite answer for gender & I'm sure pregnantmommie2012 knows it as well.
Anyway this is fun to express our opinion & beliefs ;)

I gained weight everywhere and my stomach went huge and my baby's heart rate was slower rather than faster, i also had no morning sickness and craved all things savory and i had a boy, definitely just gotta wait until your ultrasound later on :) but all the old wives tales are fun :)

Only way to know (other than to make guesses and play with old wives tales) is by ultrasound or birth.

Yes I believe that too & the pointy belly usually a boy & if ur stomach is bigger & wider it's a girl...;)

It's really interesting coz my first pregnancy (with a girl) I eat so much & gained a lot weight & didn't really get sick like morning sickness I didn't feel pregnant at all! But this time I knew I was having a boy coz I got morning sickness & very picky on food what I eat I would throw up every time I eat something greasy & heartburn it was horrible! Lol but after 3 months it's gone thank god:) . But then again every pregnancy is different:)

They say that if the heart beats fast its a boy and if its slow its a girl,,

Or they say if ur just tummy then ur having a boy or if ur gaining more weight then ur probably having a girl,,

I thinks its kinda true cause when i was pregnant of my daughter i was gaining alot of weight on my face nd legs, nd now im pregnant a boy and the only thing that is growing is my belly :)
