Do you know any old wives tales about what gender your baby would be?

I was wondering if ppl out there experinced things that could corresponde with some old wives tales about what gender their baby would be. One pregnancy one i know is that if you get heartburn, your kid will have a full head of hair and this was true in the case of my first kid. But this is just for fun cuz i'm prego again and my bf swears this one will be a boy (we already have 3 other boys from previous marriages) and we want a girl this time so i just wanna playfully joke about how this one will be the girl!

Nose and butt spread slightly while pregnant - girl because she is stealing her mommies good looks



Look as great if not greater - boy because he cherishes his mommy



If someone asks for your hand and you offer it palm side down, it is a girl (more demure)



If you offer it palm side up, it is a boy (grasping a tool)



If you offer it to the side and it is the right hand - a boy (shaking a hand)



If you offer it to the side and it is the left hand - a girl (offering hand to dance)



If you can't eat the heel or crusts of bread - girl - too hard on your stomach



If you like/love the heel or crusts of bread - boy - more roughage for a rough boy



Crave fruits and veggies - girl



Crave meat and potatoes - boy



Get hairier during pregnancy - boy



No change or less hairy - girl



If you pull down on the lower lid of your left eye and there is a Y vein, it is a girl



If there are two veins running perpendicular to each other, it is a boy.

wide round belly = girl



sticking out narrower belly = boy



this one actually seems fairly accurate but of course you can't tell until you actually start to get a belly.

My baby Girl had a full head of hair and kinda long. And i had NO heart burn. I was told one old wives tale if the belly sits high it's a boy. If the belly sits low it's a girl. My belly was low, and I had a girl.

ive heard the more severe the morning sickness is the more likely to have a girl.



also if your hubby has more sisters than it s more likely to be a girl-more brothers more likely boy.

There are a bunch. If you have morning sickness, you'll have a girl because she's stealing your beauty. Carrying high indicates a boy, low a girl. There's the "wedding band on a string" one. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.



EDIT: There's also the heartbeat one. 120=boy, 160=girl. That one is flase though because my duaghters is 144. LOL

My family has told me girls cause worse morning sickness and sit higher than boys in the womb. I've also heard carrying a girl results in worse skin problems (acne, etc) while a boy actually improves your skin. I'm having a boy and he sits very low and my skin has improved a bunch.

if you carry like a basket ball you will have a girl...if you carry everywhere its a boy (true in my case)



Up high is a boy....down low is a girl...



you are more sick w/ a girl than w/ a boy

If the guy finishes on bottom, it's a girl...



If the guy finishes on top, it's a boy....



finishes, as in, the time you conceive.

A couple that I have heard are...



If you hear the fetal heartrate and it is above 140 it will be a girl.



If you are carrying most of your weight around your hips and middle...it will be a girl



and if you carry your weight just in your belly like a beach ball...it will be a boy.



I also found this website that you can enter your information and it will give you a prediction...

The one I heard from an old, old Italian grandmother was that if the mother is more radiant and beautiful during pregnancy, than it's a boy (he doesn't need her beautybut if the mother is "losing her beauty" (her words), that it's a girl because the baby is stealing away her mother's beauty for herself. The lady was like 90 years so, while it sounds kinda offensive from me, it was cute from her.

Dangle your wedding ring or a needle over the belly, if it goes in a straight line it is a boy, and if it goes in a circle it is a girl.



Some say you will put on more body fat with a girl.



Do you know any old wives tales about what gender your baby would be?

I always heard if you carry low it is a boy, if you carry high it's a girl. My friend %26amp; I were pregnant at the same time, my pregnancy belly was low - looked like my belly was balancing on the top of my hips - I did have a boy. My friends pregnancy belly was high - she carried directly under her bust, right at the rib cage, she had a girl. I don't know if this was a coincidence or has some merit to it.

The Chinese gender chart worked for me and everyone in my family... maybe it's just a coincidence... but I trust it at this point. It's fun to play with.

Its hard to say a right or wrong to this one, everyone has different outcomes. I will say that old wives tales and the chinese chart all said boy for myself, we were so excited and figured it had to be boy since ALL of the "tales" said it was. Anyway we just confirmed we are having a beautiful baby Girl! They are fun to do, but its is something i leart the hard way not to depend on!
