FOR ALL THE WOMEN WHO DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE HAVING YET..

For all prego women still in or around your 1st trimesters & still don't know what they're having.. I'm curious.. what gender are you & your significant other hoping for? AND for all the women who already know what they're having.. how did you react when you first heard the news? Did it turn out to be what you "thought" or hoped??

I heard that you crave meat and your hair gets thick and beautiful when you're pregnant with a boy,also that your belly is high and round like a basketball :) I heard you crave sweets and lighter foods when you're having a girl and that they steal your looks giving you bad skin and hair while prego. I happn to believe those things because I looked horrible with my daughter and glowing with my boys. With that being said.. I've been looking radiant since I found out,smoothe skin,my eye color which does change has turned a beautiful shade of green/grey. My hairs growing. So I HOPE that its a girl even though by "wives tale" it sounds like a boy. lol but.. I'm craving sweets.. cake,pie,yogurt,fruit.. even prunes,raisins and pudding. I'm usually a "salty" snacker chips,nachos,fries. But I don't want that type of stuff and I've been skipping meat. I'm going to do the gender tests though. Ill keep everyone posted.. *crossing my fingers*

I am ages away from finding out and it's killing me.  My BF would like a boy, he has a girl from a previous relationship and she wants a girl.  I don't care as long as it is healthy (I know everyone says that but I now know why) so either way 2 out of the 3 of us will be happy.

I do feel like its a boy though.  I don't know why. I've looked at all the old wives tales and I fall into the boy category, skin is a lot better than when I wasn't pregnant, dry hands, no morning sickness etc and the Chinese lunar calender test says boy too.  LOL

I know its all for fun and I wont be making any decisions til I get my ultrasound, the wait is killing me though........

Not too sure about fatty things but the old wives tale is that you will crave beef and hard cheese.  It also says you'l have cold feet and dry hands..... Its an old wives tale don't know if you want to believe them :)

Aww.. so everyones pretty much at a stage of "finding out". I'm jealous *sadface* lol But I know everyone is going to be happy with whatever the Stork brought =) & The Red Cabbage Test is a gender test much like the others you mightve heard about @RemberMe69. Look them up online. I'm waiting until atleast 13 weeks to test.

I have three girls so it would be very exciting to have a boy. Though we'll definitely be thrilled either way. Should be finding out within the next four weeks!

When I was pregnant with our youngest we felt we were having a girl but Daddy still felt a little disappointed when he found out he wasn't having a son. But he got over it super fast. I think it's normal and okay to grieve the thought of having one gender over another but in the end you have exactly who God intended you to have, irregardless of gender.

I will be 16 weeks the 28th and am having an ultrasound to check my cervical length and we'll find out the sex at that time too. I'm hoping for a girl. I have a 7 year old DD by my ex-husband and 2 little boys afterwards. DH doesn't care whether it's a boy or girl. I have a feeling baby is a girl though. I'm always sick with my pregnancies but with my daughter it was uncontrollable even with medication, with my boys the meds controlled it. And with my daughter I broke out in acne all over, never with my boys. And with this pregnancy I have really bad acne everywhere. As well as my hair looks horrible. I had beautiful hair with my boy pregnancies, but not with my daughter. So I'm excited to find out! This will be my last baby before I get my tubes tied. Don't know what I'd do with 3 boys!!!!

I have felt like this one is a boy because of all the sugar and fat i crave this time.. but i dont actually know but in my dreams, so far this has been a boy in all of them.   i would be happy either way just want to make it that far...  I would love a little girl though..

I did a red cabbage gender test for fun and got Boy... so we will see..

Its so weird I had 2 boys first.. one then 2 yrs later another one. When we did my first shopping with both I picked out all blue,black,green things & I "knew" they were boys very strongly. I wasn't surprised at all when I found out for sure. My 3rd was a girl which I had thoughts about. This time I feel like its a girl and I really really want a girl :) lol even tho I'm just 11 weeks I already have the prettiest name picked out. Id really love my baby no matter what it is as well.. but I wld be a lil dissapointed if it turns out not to be want a girl. KEEP OUR FINGERS CROSSED LADIES!

I am in my second trimester, but don't know what I am having for another 3 weeks.  I have 3 boys already...2 are from a previous marriage.  I was not surprised with any of them being boys and honestly I would be surprised if this one is a girl.  We will see.  I know that ultimately I don't care if this one is a boy or girl, but think I might be a tad disappointed if it is not a girl, only because this is our last baby.  I keep thinking this one is a boy though!
