Old Wives Tales

Bran and I think our little munchkin is a boy and will be finding out within the next month.  I'm carrying low, they're heartbeat is faster, I have dry palms. My nurse at Bella says she believes some of these 'Old Wives Tales'  or 'Myths' are true.  What do you guys think? What 'Old Wives Tales have you heard?

I feel like some of you are taking what Im saying wrongly. I dont want a boy or a girl. It doesnt matter to me, I will love them either way unconditionally.  All I want is a healthy child.

Having a faster heart rate is old wives tale indicating girl. Everyone swore by my symptoms I was having a boy. No matter what wives tale or gender predictor or gut feeling. Im now in early labor with a little girl :) just love the baby regardless of gender

True. Just, my gut tells me in a boy and when I touch my belly and imagine my baby, I imagine a boy so. But we'll see. :)
