With just one week to go before we know if LP is a boy or girl (assuming LP cooperates), I thought it would be fun to make a list all of the whacky old wives’ tales that I’ve read to see what sex they point to (for some, like how I’m carrying or where I’m gaining weight, it’s just to early to tell) Well, as you’ll see, they overwhelmingly point to a GIRL! We’ll see just how much truth there is to all of these soon enough J I’ll be honest, I don’t care whether we have a boy or a girl, as long as LP is healthy and happy, I’ll be one grateful mom. Speaking of being grateful for a healthy baby, I have good news. My quad screen results came back today, and everything is normal. Woohoo! What a relief! Ok, so here’s the list:
COLD FEET: My feet are not colder than they were before pregnancyÒ GIRL
BREAD: I LOVE bread (always have been a carb addict . . . I think it’s in our genes), but I refuse to eat the heel of a loaf of breadÒ GIRL
DADDY’S BELLY: Vikas hasn't been gaining weight along with meÒ GIRL
MOM’S LOOKS: I am not looking particularly good during pregnancy . . . been breaking out a bit and do not have that gorgeous hair that everyone raves aboutÒ GIRL Supposedly, girls steal their mother's looks. Great :-)
LEFT EYE TEST: The eye test is when a “V” or “branches” appear when you pull down the skin under your left eye. If you see a “V” or “branches” in the white part, you’re having a girl. I have “branches”Ò GIRL
SWEET OR SALTY: I’ve been craving sweet foods (ok, maybe not “food” . . . more like candy) rather than salty foods Ò GIRL
LOVING O.J.: I never drink orange juice, but lately I’ve been drinking it way more often, and find it more delicious than ever! Ò GIRL
HAPPY TUMMY: I didn't have morning sickness early in pregnancy Ò BOY
CHINESE BIRTH CHART: The Chinese Birth Chart, which is based on my age at conception and the month of conception, and is supposedly 90% accurate says conception at age 29 in October Ò BOY
MAYAN TALE: The Mayan tale adds the mother’s age at conception (29) and the year of conception (2010). An odd number meansÒ BOY
Hmmm. We'll all just have to wait and see whether sweet little LP is going to be a Daddy's girl or a Mama's boy!
