Inklings

For those of you who chose not to find out the sex of your baby when pregnant, did you have any inklings about what you were having? Maybe just a kind of suspicion? And were you right?

If I had to put a bet on it, I'd say we are gonna have a boy, but since we're not going to find out, it's all just speculation - based on a hunch.

Interested to see if anyone else 'just knew'

I was completely wrong with Jack, I thought he would be a girl. Mainly because almost everyone in our family (and most of DH's) have girls first.

With this pg I am pretty sure we are having another boy, mainly due to the timing of bd'ing. My parents think we are having a boy as well - but not for the same reasons as me!!

I thought we were having a girl and had it completely wrong!!!

Yup I "knew" both times and was right both times. Don't know why but I was calling Leah a girl from about 8 weeks and Joel a boy from about 14 weeks.

I thought girl girl girl, I even had dreams about baby girls, i drifted towards pink sections in the shops and obviously Finn is a boy and everyone always says when they see him that he is such a boy too - so my inklings totally wrong.

I was 99% convinced we were having a boy - I think helped by the fact that we couldn't come up with any boy names we both liked so when he came out I wasn't surprised at all, actually I'm not sure I even thought about it at the time, I just assumed he'd be a he

We wanted to find out with Dominic but he wasn't cooperating when we had the scan. I gave my tummy a wee push to get him to move and round and he crossed his legs! He is still contrary too.
I wasn't sure what Dom was, I had a moment of complete clarity that he was a boy for about a week but then talked myself out of it.
I knew Isobelle was a girl before I even took the pregnancy test, we had a wee peek just to be sure tho.
Trust your instincts now and after your baby comes. A mother's instincts are strong and usually right, or as we tell our DH's always right

My DD was uncooperative during her scan also. I wasn't sure, but my little sister was convinced that I was having a girl. Funny thing was I never came up with any boys names I really liked, but two girls names.

This time around DF would really like a boy, but I think its a girl based on ovulation and when we BDed.

We found out (didn't really have a choice having weekly scans anyway) but I wanted girls but I always thought they were boys & got my self thinking boys would be good, no reason to it but just thought boys & Yep - boys they are.
