We would keep asking our two year old if she was going to have a brother or sister and she would keep changing her mind until the last 3weeks when she had decided she was having a sister. And the night before Miya was born I had a dream that I was pushing a pram with a little girl in it. And Josh also had a feeling we were having a girl so we were all right. But when I was pregnant with Chloe I was sure I was having a boy.]]> Thu, 24 Nov 2005 17:44:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=20712&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#20712 <![CDATA[Predicting your baby’s gender : i had it on tuesday (see above...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=20638&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#20638 Author: faewie

i had it on tuesday (see above ) and so wanted to find out but baby wasnt gunna show!!! i thought that was so typical! lol when the sonographer said ooh, i think its a girl, timmy nearly fell of his chair and i laughed but he couldnt be sure. I might have to go back in about 8weeks coz the placenta was quite low i dont know what that means! but he wasnt too worried. So no painting or anything for another wee while now! Im not fussed at all im just so glad everything looked great and babys healthy and wonderful!
i cant believe im 20wks already, thats NUTZ!!!

i was wondering if that heartbeat thing was acurate, babys hb was 154 so i thought ooh girl! but yeah, timmys family only have boys and the only girls on his male side are probably not from his dads side if you know what i mean his uncle has 11 children,,, the 11th is a girl...
it was interseting, the sonographer guy person said yesterday that the way you or your partner sleep is often the way baby does,,, i sleep on my tummy (while i can!!!) and baby was on its belly yesterday,,, so if you wanna see, lie on your back! lol
awww, my lil bubba, i just love seeing it ]]> Wed, 23 Nov 2005 22:29:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=20621&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#20621 <![CDATA[Predicting your baby’s gender : I did that online and it said...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=20585&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#20585 Author: aimeejoy

lol. our family is a family of girls - and yet each of us has had a boy first.. and boys have dominated... until me - lolol.. I HAD to be different - and had a girl first, and then another girl. he he he, always knew i was special , nah i just picked the right partner.

My little sis has just found out she is having another boy - so once that baby is born - there will be 13 grandchildren, only 5 of them girls. i have 2, another sis has 2 (also has 3 boys though) and my other sis has 1.

mike was one of only 2 boy grandchildren on his side until a few years back when there has been another 2 added, but up till then, only girls

Yep Jezsika - it's the man who decides the baby's gender, cos he can either have X (girl) sperm or Y (boy) sperm.. us girlies are only XX.. so it doesn't matter what is on your side, it's picking the right partner.. lolol. there's alot to be said for meeting their family ]]> Fri, 18 Nov 2005 15:04:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=20061&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#20061 <![CDATA[Predicting your baby’s gender : just re-read my post and the last...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=20056&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#20056 Author: jack_&_charli

I don't know about predicting, but the genetic odds are leaning heavily towards a girl for us. My fiance has three brothers, who have all had girls so far, and my birthmum had two girls. But who knows, I could be the black sheep - baaa !

Just wanted to comment on the heartbeat thing - our baby's heartbeat has been round 150 - 155 bpm each time, and when I was having a scan on Tues morning to make sure all was ok, bubs decided to open it's legs just at the wrong minute (we really didn't want to know what we were having!!!), well, looks like it's a girl!!!!

I told everyone I wanted a girl even though I thought I was having a boy. Had his name picked out before we even found out & sure enough the scan said he was a boy.
This time around I have a girl's name picked up but I'm just not sure. Still telling everyone I want a girl because I really really do.
Maybe I will get some intuition in a few weeks time once I'm further on.......Or I will just have to wait for my scan!]]> Fri, 11 Nov 2005 20:19:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=19716&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#19716 <![CDATA[Predicting your baby’s gender : Xanders heart rate was always...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=19614&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#19614 Author: Xander&Harmony

Xanders heart rate was always around 140ish and was up round 160 one vist.

Harmonys rate was pretty much the same and her highest was 155bpm.So much for girls having faster heartbeats lol

i dont think that it is a reliable gender prediction.id go by the scan IF sonographer says 99.9% certain.

I had a high heart rate, and I got monitered every 2 or 3 days in the last month, usually over 150, although sometimes not. I was sure it was a girl, my m/w said the old wives tale is high heart rate usually means girl. Didn't in my case, though!
I have to admit, though, although I told everyone I thought we were having a girl, deep deep down I knew it was a boy.
A friend of mine who is a nurse said to me go into a kids clothes stop and pick up the first outfit you are drawn to without thinking, and thats what you are having, intuition... I always went boy (even though I fought it!!) I even had boys names picked first. I think you just "know"...

does anyone think there's any truth in the boy/girl heart rate thing? i have always wanted a little girl and when i got pregnant i thought, na, it'll be a boy. when i heard the heartbeat for the first time and the midwife told me the heart rate, i was a little disappointed and then the scan just confirmed everything...no mistaking what i saw sticking out on the screen
by the following day i was over it and wouldn't change jack for jackie anyday

lol i used to have dreams - and correctly predicted my nephews and nieces... same sisters each time - and both were preggers at the same time.. (i have 2 nephews aged 10, and 2 nieces aged 8) first time i had a dream i was looking after 2 little boys in carseats at a shop.. and hello they both had boys a few months later.. next time, and it sounds morbid.. but i dreamt there was a fire at my sisters house and we were all staying and i went into the room and grabbed two little girls from the cot and rushed outside.. and scarily enough, both of them ended up having girls.

for my own kids, i dunno, a month or so before i got preg with paris, i had a deam i was in a garden with 2 children who i felt were mine.. one was a girl with big blue eyes and curly blonde hair, and the other, i thought was a boy, but didn't really get a good look. then i get preg, and all the way through was sure i was havinga gril - and out comes paris.. who now has the big blue eyes and curly hair and looks just like this kid in my dream except hair is brownish not blonde. with ayja i thought it was a boy, cos of my dream and cos everything was different.. till we found out at the scan - then i was like "what????" who knows

My older sister reckons she's had dreams where i have got 3 kids... but she's nuts i think lolol, cos that won't happen in my lifetime.. well, not planned anyway. ]]> Thu, 10 Nov 2005 14:22:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=19579&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#19579 <![CDATA[Predicting your baby’s gender : I predicted a girl, oct 18th when...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1141&PID=19559&title=predicting-your-babys-gender#19559 Author: lizzle
