Time to Play 'Guess That Baby'!

When we were pregnant with Emrie, Phil and I found out what we were having and kept it a secret until she was born {CRAZY}. I can't believe we were able to do it, but this time, I don't want to keep it a secret. I want to share with everyone what we are having but I want it to be fun {by the way we are telling the gender, but not the name until they are born}.

Now, we want everyone to join the fun and make your guesses. Since I don't know what we are having yet I will tell you a few things they say helps you to know what you are having {I don't know that I buy any of these wives tales, but it is fun anyway}.

First trimester sickness: Nauseous everyday (much worse than with Emrie), Brain splitting headaches
Cravings: Bread
Heartbeats per minute: 164 (7w4d), 170 (11w2d), 145 (15w3d){Emrie was 172 at 9w2d)
Chinese Calendar: 2 said girl, 1 said boy {3 said boy with Emrie}

Tomorrow morning we have our ultrasound and Phil will be finding out what we are having then {he doesn't want to be surprised in front of people and I don't blame him, he is really hoping for a boy}. Then tomorrow night we will have Phil's family over and Skype with my family where I will open a box with either pink or blue balloons in it. I am going to be surprised with all the family {I have to admit I could not have done that with Emrie since I wanted a boy so badly that I cried when we found out it was a girl. This time I see the joy in either, a girl would mean sisters plus so much pink and frills:) and a boy would mean one of each, so I want to be surprised with everyone else}.

I do have to say that while I don't have any real reason to think one way or another, since I already have a girl, I picture the baby as a boy, but again, for no particular reason. All that said:

MY OFFICIAL GUESS:BOY

What is your guess?

We will find out tomorrow night!!!!

  1. for what it's worth, if you feel in your gut that your having a boy you are probably right.. I was told my first was a boy at the ultrasound, but it didnt feel right after 2 weeks. I went back and it was a girl!! read this article.. interesting. ;) http://www.jhsph.edu/publichealthnews/press_releases/PR_1999/predict_baby_sex.html
