Boy or Girl?

Morning friends,

I’m having a rough Monday.  Anything that could go wrong this morning, has :(   Including the fact that I couldn’t load my post (and recipe) I had set up for you guys.  So you’ll get another post for me tonight [I hope].

But I’m trying to change my mood because today is the day I’ve been waiting for — we find out if Baby O is boy or a girl!

There are so many ‘old wives tales’ out there and I’d say the slew of them put me at 50-50 (boy or girl).  But early consensus amongst friends and family is leaning towards boy.  Truth be told, I’ll be shocked if it’s a girl.

So tell me, what do YOU think we’re having — boy or girl?  Know any wives tales that may make you think so — do share!

  1. In my mother’s culture, there are things called “pregnancy dreams,” that give you hints to what you’re having. Have any weird dreams lately? I’ll place my bets that you are having a girl.

  2. You know I’m on the “dark horse” – aka girl – bandwagon. But I’ll be excited either way!

    Oh – I hope your morning gets better :( I ate too many BBQ chips last night and woke up feeling on fire. Bah.

    I think it’s a BOY!! I don’t know why ;) – I’ve heard that ‘lower’ bellies mean it’s a boy before…who knows! Kate Hudson was convinced she was having a girl – and didn’t find out until birth – and it was a boy!

  4. Hmmm — I think you’re having a girl. I guess it is just a gut feeling and because I hope you have a girl because she’ll be the best dressed baby on earth!

    what an exciting day for you! everyone has thought ours will be a girl from the beginning, but a few weeks left before we find out – there’s a chinese predictor thing on thebump that says it will be a girl too ;) funny how the popular vote always seems to sway one way or the other

  6. I feel like its a boy.
    Or a girl. :)
    But I really do think its going to be a boy.

  7. That’s really exciting. I can’t wait to check back and find out which it is. I don’t know any tricks, but I can say you can still get a surprise. For instance, dr.s though I’d be a boy for a long time due to my slower heartbeat.

    I think it’s a boy! Probably because I love the first boy and baby sis combo! A little girl would be adorbs too! Ahh you’re gonna be a great mom!! :)

  9. Everyone I Know lately has been having boys! So I’ll stick with BOY!

  10. I hope your day is getting better! I’m gonna guess a boy because everyone I know and in the blog world is having one! :)

    Did you do the Chinese gender prediction chart? I think that’s spot on about 75% of the time?!

  11. Hope things get better. I think it’s a boy!

    Gosh..how exciting! In India, as part of the baby shower you get to pick a few items from inside a saree or a plate with your eyes closed and the item(s) you chose determines the sex..
    Dang! Should’ve done that when you came over for dinner. :-)

    • WHAT? I”m bummed we didn’t do that! I doubt you have the stuff to have it done with Zach today ;)

      PS Did he bring you a scone?

      • Priya

        The mommy has to pick the items – so even if i used make shift items, Zach cant do the choosing!
        Yes..it was delivered very promptly this morning.. thanks much! Seriously good stuff.. Cant wait for the recipe.

        • Good! When I laid them out on the table, he says who are these for and I said, Priya. He didn’t look too happy since he seems to like these scones

        • Priya

          Poor Zach..I can see why.. love the strawberries in it! But I’ll refrain from describing it in too much detail lest I give it all away before your post shows up. :)

  13. i think you’re having a boy!

  14. I’m going to go against the crowd and say girl!! Either would be awesome, obviously, but I guess I’m partial because I have a sister and girls rule! :)

  15. I always think people are having a girl, no matter what. :) I was convinced my younger nephew was a girl, but he obviously wasn’t, hehe. Rough morning over here too- trying to beat down the funk I’m in, so I hear ya!

  16. Hello Shanna, Congratulations to you! This is my first time responding to your blog…I read your profile – I, too am pregnant (for the first time in my life) so I can understand the excitement you must be feeling today…in fact, I don’t even know you but, with all your excitement, you had me teary eyed (must be the crazy hormones)! :-)
    I hope your day gets better…

  17. I am the worst at guessing but I applaud you for finding out :) I could never be surprised! Way too much of a planner. Either way I’m sure it will be just a sweet adorable little baby.

  18. I think you will have a girl for sure!

    I’m now excited to see what you will be having!!! : )
