Boy or Girl?

Tomorrow is the big day! We finally get to find out if we are having a boy or a girl. I thought I would have some fun with this and play around with some old wives tales. :)

1. Chinese Calendar
According to the Chinese pregnancy calendar, which can be found here http://www.momswhothink.com/pregnancy/chinese-pregnancy-calendar.html, it's a 
GIRL.

2. Cravings (Sweet or Sour/Salty)
If you crave sweets, it's a girl. If you crave sour/salty things, it's a boy. Hmmm, this one is a little tough. I really had bad craving for sour things in the beginning of my pregnancy. Now I crave both on occasion, but my biggest craving lately is Arby's, as we all know, so that means it's a 
BOY.

3. Carrying High, Carrying Low
The way you are carrying during your pregnancy is one of the most oft cited ways of determining the sex of your baby. The general story goes that, if you're carrying low, you're having a boy. If you are carrying high, then you must be having a girl. I think I'm carrying low. What do you guys think? 
19 Weeks
Maybe it's a 
BOY.

4. Acne
If you are breaking out like crazy, it's supposed to mean you are having a girl. I have been pretty average in that department. I haven't noticed much of a difference. So that would mean it's a 
BOY.

5. Morning Sickness
If you are sicker than a dog in your first trimester, or throughout the whole pregnancy, then it's a girl. If you have little to no morning sickness, it's a boy. Well, this one is a no brainer. Definitely a 
GIRL.

6. Legs
If your legs get really big, you’re having a boy.  If your legs stay in shape and lean, it’s a girl. I was told specifically by a friend in my photography class that my legs looked skinnier. My jeans fit the same. I haven't noticed any weight gain in any area other than my stomach and my chest. So it's a 
GIRL.

7. What do I think?
71% of the time, the mom-to-be knows what she is having. I'm honestly so torn on this one. From the way this little baby kicks, I would definitely say it is a boy. But, I can imagine myself having a girl more than a boy.  So it must be a 
HESHE.

Stay tuned for a FB poll tonight, then you can tell me what YOU think we are having!!! :D

  1. You're uterus grows from the bottom up, I think the carrying thing is after they've taken over your abdomen. ;) And you don't even look pregnant! Are you sure you're not just arching your back? HAHA

    None of the wive's tales ever worked for me. :) And I'm so excited for you! CONGRATS! Congrats on the girl part too. I'm 22 weeks and having a boy!! YEA FOR BABIES!!
