Hey ,

Just for fun , has anyone done the old wives tale to determine the sex of the baby ? needle and string test or wedding band ? And has anyones been accurate?

The funniest one I heard is if your partner put on weight whilst your pregnant it’s a boy 😂 was true for me ......twice 😀😂

I think they are all just abit of fun. I did the ring test and loads of others and 90% all went towards a girl but I got two boys x

No but I had a pretty tough pregnancy first time round and carried very high, right up to delivery and it was a girl.
This one has been an absolute walk in the park (so far!) so I'm wondering if it's a boy Grin

How were u feeling with your girl? I carried really high with both my boys but second pregnancy was an absolute nightmare anything that could have went wrong did 🙈 this time ive just been extremely tired , very spotty on my face , craving very sour sweets and the nausea has been horrific 🤢 x

See spotty means boy and sour means boy apparently . I carried very low with my first boy and high with my second boy. But both pregnancy’s were complete nightmares Again all that could go wrong did . Very quick labor though 7 hours For first and 1 hour 13mins second x

@beautifulsonharry you see when i carried my boys i craved salt and chilli chicken and curry constantly 😂 so much so the midwife said all the salt caused my bp to be through the roof , this time im craving sour sweets , chocolate and my face is a mess with spots never had this before , i actually just sent me scan away to the gendologists on fb and they analyse your scan through ramzi they sent me saying in having a girl , either way im not really fussed would be nice for a change tho 🤞🏼 when are you all due?
