OLD WIVES TALES - GENDER PREDICTION

Seeing as how there has been so much anticipation surrounding the gender of baby June Bug we thought that it would a lot of fun to put all of the Old Wives Tales about gender prediction to the test.  There are LOTS of people who are on team "girl" and, of course, a few (like momma) who are on team "it doesn't really matter but another boy would be super nice" and it was so much fun to see what the wives tales predict.  We compiled results from several different tests and the final tally is very VERY close!!!  So without further ado:

BAKING SODA TEST = GIRL
CHINESE PREDICTION CHART = GIRL
INTELLIGENDER = BOY
DRANO = GIRL
LOW OR HIGH BUMP = BOY
ACNE = GIRL
RING SWING = GIRL
FETAL HEART RATE = GIRL
CRAVING SALTY/SWEET FOOD = BOY
MORNING SICKNESS = BOY
KEY TEST = BOY
FATHER TO BE SYMPATHY WEIGHT = BOY

TOTAL:
BOY = 6
GIRL = 6

As you can see it was VERY close..... a dead heat in fact.   If everyone remembers our last pregnancy blog, the Intelligender said boy and we indeed had a boy!!! I am definitely carrying the same as my last two pregnancies (at least so far) and I have been blessed, yet again, with no morning sickness.  I do have some acne and, I do not even think about sweets, and Jason appears to weigh the same as he always has.  All so very interesting.  We do also have the Ultrasound Techs best guess/Nub Theory to go by, but I am afraid that there is a little more validity to that prediction and I withheld the results until further notice!!! LOL!!!  Of course, this was all in good fun, and we will be over the moon no matter what the gender of our little bug is.  We adore the idea of a little sister for the boys to look over and love on, but we also get giddy at the thought of having a house full boys, three brothers to take on the world!!!  Momma would always love another adoring "momma's boy" or a little girl to do girlie things with.  Daddy loves the idea of having a little princess to walk down the aisle one day and is very keen on the idea of having another pal to monkey around with and be "one of the guys" with!!!
