   before the 20 week scan (if you did find out then) or before the birth and were right?
 I knew from about 10 weeks that I was having a girl when pregnant with my first.
 
 Hopefully find out in 6-8 weeks time if I am correct with this one

   Yes, I was right both times.   Of course the cynical side of me points out that the odds are pretty good |

   i wasnt right the first time but i do recall having a nagging feeling that i was having a boy but wanted a girl so kept telling myself he was a girl....
 with #2 i knew from the very beginning that he was a boy   this time im thinking girl (and im not itching for a girl like i was the first time either! lol). i guess il find out next weekish.

   With Emily I just "knew" she was a girl right from the beginning.  I didn't have a preference.
 This time I've got a feeling it's a boy.  I would really like a little boy but would be just as happy with another girl.

   I want a girl so badly that I can't really tell if my feelings of it being a girl are because thats what I want or thats what it is.
 Strange for me as before I got PG I wanted a boy.    |

   We ideally would have preferred boys, but from about 13-14w onwards I just knew they were girls, much as I hated to admit it (and how much DH hated me to say it...although now they're his little princesses).  Sure enough, the anatomy scan and the scan today well and truly proved it - they're girls!

   I thought boys both times and of course was wrong twice.
 I really wanted girls too so maybe I was just preparing myself for the possibility for a boy. Im glad I was wrong, wouldn't change my girls for anything!

   DH has been convinced from the moment I've confirmed the pregnancy that both our little ones are boys.  
 Then again he came to bed one night patted me on the tummy and said nite nite little baby kinda jokingly - neither of us knowing at the time that I was PG

   I thought girl first time but only cos I didn't think I'd ever end up with a boy (didn't know what to do with them!). Got a boy.
 This time, I don't know if its because I desperately wanted a girl (last baby) or what, but I just knew she was a girl. Even went out and bought clothes before the scan which I would never normally do as I'm such a cheapskate.
