can instincts sumtimes b correct about the babys sex

[Rachael17]

ive got really strong instincts that im havin a girl. but i want a girl so im not sure if thats y i feel its a girl

nebody have a gut feeling too???

Even before I got pg I always imagined my little girl and i couldn't see myself with a boy. When I was pg however everyone decided I was having a boy - several family members had dreams about it being a boy and a couple of people said I was carrying like it was a boy, so I believed them! There hadn't been any girls in dh's family for 40 years as well. I'd just got used to the idea that it was a boy and was happy about it when we went for the 20wk scan and they said it looked like a girl - and it was! I was quite shocked but extremely happy. I spose what I'm saying is that mind power is very convincing. I would suggest that, if you're less than 20wks, ask the sex at the scan and then you'll have time to adjust whatever it turns out to be. You'll love him/her whatever happens, though!

I was convinced DS1 was a girl and the same for DS2 until I saw a huge set of tackle on a 38 week scan!

I had a gut feeling it was a girl adn I had a boy!!

I was convinced I was having a girl ... but had DS ...
Did see 4 magpies a month before he was born and even that didn't sway me ....

Well, it's a 50/50 chance you'll be right! I thought I was having a boy and I was... but the odds were good that I would be right, eh?

I had strong insticts with all my four and was correct - 3 boys and a girl.

Convinced she was a boy up until 3 weeks before delivery when I was completely adamant that she was a girl. dh "knew" she was a girl all along - right again damn it!

Throughout my preg I was convinced it was a boy and couldn't imagine it being a girl. Then at a scan at 33 weeks I found out it was a girl and was really shocked!!!

I thought I was having a boy during the 1st pregnancy. Strangers would even come up to me and tell me it was a boy because of the way it was lying. We also got given a blue carpet for the nursery room which made me even more convinced that it was a sign I was having a boy. But at the scan they said it was more likely to be a girl, and it was! I was quite chuffed as I wanted a girl!

always thought I was having a girl - no real reason ... we even found it difficult to find a boys name we liked whilst pregnant, took us a while to agree on a girls name we both really liked... thank goodness dd was born and not a ds... poor mite would have had no name...

I reckon gut feelings are sometimes right .. about half the time. I didn't feel strongly about no.1 (a boy), but I was 100% certain no.2 was a girl (I actually preferred another boy). After the birth I was in shock for 30 mins, because I had been so convinced that he was going to be a girl - I just hadn't considered any alternative.

I was convinced I was expecting a girl, and p "knew" he had "made" a girl. We found a girl's name we liked almost straight away but couldn't agree on a boy's name. Luckily we had a girl!
My brother also "knew" he had "made" a girl, and he was right too.

I was very convinced I was expecting a girl... I had a boy, and then I thought I was expecting a boy and i had a girl... my 2 last labour clients (I am a birth doula) KNEW what they were expecting and both got it wrong!!!!

I was convinced right throughout my pregnancy that I was having a boy. When it came to names we agreed on a girls name fairly quickly but by the time of the birth we still hadn't quite agreed on a boys name. Probably just as well as we had a girl. I'm no good at guessing what other people are having either I always get it wrong but as someone else said it's a 50/50 chance so you can't go far wrong, lol Funnily enough my grandad said all the way through that I was having a girl and that she would weigh 5 and a half pounds, she actually weighed in at 6 and a half pounds so he wasn't to far off, guessed the sex right anyway.

With Baby no1 I was 1000% sure I was having a boy, the thought of a girl never crossed my mind. I had a boy. No2, I had no 'feel' at all for what it was. It was a boy. No3, I was pretty sure it was a girl and I was right. No4, I was sure was a boy but I had a girl. So, I reckon you've a 50% chance of being right.

Wrong 4 times....

Yes but only if you are a bad speller

Or I should have said, yes, 50% of the time.

Almost exactly the same thing as happened to Moomin happened to me, only the other way round. I wasn't bothered about the sex to be honest, but when I first got pg I had loads of boy dreams, virtually every night. When I went for my 12 wk scan I just thought, "It's a boy" as soon as I saw it on the screen; the thought just came, as if 'instinctively'. At the time I wasn't even interested in finding out until the birth.

Then when I told my family my mother kept saying she had 'funny feelings' and 'omens' (finding pink toys on the street etc...!) it was going to be a girl, dp had 2 daughters by a previous relationship and also started saying it was definitely a girl, and quite a few strangers said to me that I looked like it was a girl (they said this because I only had a small bump, apparently). So I kind of got sidetracked by this, and then I started calling it Audrey as a joke (I liked the name and everyone else hated it), and the name Audrey stuck.

So now I've got several months' worth of pregnancy diaries reading 'Audrey this' and 'Audrey that', 'she' and 'her' etc, only to be told at a growth scan last week that it's a boy! (I could see for myself actually, the view left me in no doubt and even the sonographer said she was 100% sure). So my first instinct was correct; interference from outside parties was what messed it all up!
