Mother's intuition re: gender?

[Eva]

When you were pregnant did you think you were having a girl or boy or did you have no clue? Where you right or wrong?

[Jayne]

I have seriously knew each child. Everyone thought I was having a girl when I was pg with Tylor but I just knew he was a boy. With Alyssa I so knew girl and with this one I was pretty positive she was a girl. I only found out this little one!

[Lynn]

I thought for sure I was having a girl. I was very wrong! :lol:

[MrsPeacefrog]

I thought I was having a boy with Aiden, so I was obviously right there, but then I thought girl the last 3 times, and I was WAY off. :lol:

[Eva]

With Emma, I was was thinking "girl" for most of my pregnancy. All the Old Wives Tales ( ring test, heartbeat and Chinese Gender Chart) said girl. Towards the end, I convinced myself she was a "boy". Mostly since I really wanted a girl and was preparing myself for a boy. :lol:

With Christine, I thought "girl" the whole time. I think I would have been in shock if she were a boy.

[Clare]

I was wrong all 3 times.

[Hilary]

At first with Madelynn I thought boy, then more towards the middle I thought girl. I knew Ava was a girl, I don't know why, I just did. :lol: I asked right after she was born if she was.

[Alyson]

I thought girl all along with Brookelyn.

Right now I'm feeling like it's a girl too, but DH and Brookelyn insist that it's a boy. Only time will tell!

[Nocona]

I knew with both of them. When my doctor told me Matthew was a girl (during the big u/s, not after he was born :giggle: ) I was in total shock. I felt better after I found out he really was a boy because I didn't think I could be that wrong, since I never am ;) I knew Sara was a girl from the start :)

[Michele]

I was right both times! With Jackson I just knew he was a boy, from pretty much the minute I got the BFP. The the big U/S wasn't really a surprise, I was like "yeah, I knew that!" With Anna, girl was my first thought, but I doubted myself a bit thinking that maybe I just wanted her to be a girl since I already had a boy. I was right in the end though.

[marcy]

With Anya I really thought boy. Only once did I have a dream that she was a girl, and that's because we still hadn't nailed down a girl's name. With Tiny Mite I have no real feelings one way or another but am "guessing" it's a boy because of the "boy sperm are faster" theory and because this pregnancy is so much easier. But, I wouldn't place any money on my intuition.

[Aussierach]

I have emails from my 3 pg where I know what I had and these emails are just after getting the :bfp: I refer to Katy as a girl, my m/c (we had testing) as a boy it was and Jack I refer to as a boy, when I had u/s to find out with Jack I said to the guy so its a boy right :lol:

[Jillian]

I was wrong all 3 times, dh was right with Janelle and Kincaid but had no clue with Travis.

[Darcy]

I was convinced Riley was a boy. In fact, when Phil wanted to change the girl's name before she was born, I actually told him, "Go ahead, it's a boy anyway." :lol:

With Jeremy, I thought for sure he was a boy because I had more problems during the pregnancy. I joked that only boys from Phil's side could cause a mom this much trouble.

[Elisete]

I knew right away that Teddy was a boy. I had a dream about him early on in my pregnancy and the baby in my dream looked just like Teddy did at 6 months. With Sam I wasn't so sure. I thought boy but it wasn't as strong as with Teddy. I knew Ben was a boy right away too. I also had a dream about him before we found out that he was a boy. In the dream a little blonde hair, blue eyed boy walked into my bedroom. Both Ted and Sam have dark hair and dark eyes.

[Kristen]

I knew Camille was a girl... =)

[Karly]

I knew all three times, almost from the BFP. I don't know how I knew, I just did. :)

[Nichole]

Yeah, no. I have zero mother's intuition when it comes to predicting gender. :lol:

[magoo]

Anna: I didn't have any really strong feelings either way, but if I'd been forced to guess, I would have said a girl.

Jacob: I knew I was pregnant with a boy before I even tested.

[debstar]

I always thought girl with Abbey, and I had 3 very vivid dreams that she was a girl. With Gabe I really had no strong feelings either way, towards the end I started thinging girl, but I think that was more because I couldn't imagine us having a boy.

With this one I am thinking girl again, but I think that is because my pregnancy is similar to Abbey's.

[EricaW]

I knew Dylan was a boy right away, I can't really say why though. At the US it was no surprise to me when they told us he was a boy. :)

[Lora]

I knew from the start that all three were boys. As much as I wanted a girl, I just knew that I was destined to have all boys.

[Barb]

I was right both times.

[Lyoshka]

I thought Nikita was a girl and had the whole world convinced. I didn't believe the dr at the U/S :lol: so with the next one, I won't even guess :scan:

[AmyP]

Right the first time, wrong the second.

[Kimberly]

I had a very vivid dream early on in my pregnancy with Ali. I was delivering and the doctor said "it's a girl". I was positive that we were having a girl from that point on. Ali didn't want to show anything at the big U/S, so my doctor did a quick scan every appointment to see if he could tell us. At 30 weeks, my doctor was 80% sure she was a girl. We were both right!

[Alysia]

I thought girl.

[kika]

I thought Kareem was a boy, and Khalila was a girl. I was right :).

[schwanda]

I've been right all 3 times (assuming the early u/s was correct and this one is a boy).

Amanda

[mcox]

I was wrong both times. I just assumed that Kaden was a girl too since I already had a girl. When they told me he was a boy I said, "I don't know how to be a mommy to a boy!" :lol:

[Karri]

I knew with Aidan, but not until around 12 weeks. I had this vivid dream that he was a boy and I just knew.
With the twins, no...no feeling either way, what so ever. Just pure anxiety :lol:

[TaraF]

The first time I knew for sure, even before the u/s.
With my 2nd, I had no idea, but wasn't really surprised when they told us it was another boy. Though I was reading back through journals I wrote at the time and before I found out it was a boy, I was having dreams of having a baby boy with dark hair (my first had blonde hair).

[milliez]

I was right with all four. With both boys and Olivia, it was around the beginning of the 2nd trimester that my intuition kicked in. With Layla it was the night she was conceived. We started calling her Layla that night. I actually talked to my friend Robin the next day and told her that we'd conceived a girl named Layla the night before.
