A GIRL =)
We just went for our morphology appt to make sure that the baby is growing well and is healthy and all checked out there and then we got to take a peak at the goods and sure enough its another little girl. I had a 'feeling' that this baby was a boy but it wasnt a strong feeling at all and I wasnt really shocked when they told me that it was a girl. When I was pregnant with my daughter I knew 110% that I was having a girl that even an ultrasound tech wouldnt have been able to tell me otherwise. But this time around it wasnt a certain feeling at all. Of course I am thrilled to be having another girl but most of all I am happy to hear that the baby is healthy
So keeping with the rules - while pregnant was your 'pregnant mommy intuition' right about what you were having?
Happy Hump Day all

What can I do next?

I was absolutely positive my first was a little boy, and found out (at delivery) he was! With my second, I had a feeling it would be a girl, but didn't want to "jinx" myself, so I didn't express it much, but it was a girl afterall! I love the suprise of waiting to find out the sex at delivery!

Good Luck!

Congrats on your new daughter!!

With my second, a girl, I was absolutely positive she was a "he." I allowed for the possibility that I might have a girl, though, and bought many items in yellow or aqua. I had them in the drawers of her dresser, and when I had to have an emergency c-section the first person we called was my mom. She was sad she'd missed being at the delivery, but then sprang into "Grandma" mode and asked what she could do. I said, "Mom, there's a ton of yellow and aqua things in the 2 top drawers of the dresser in the nursery. They all have the receipts with them, can you please go and exchange them for all pink items, as many as you can?" Which she happily did.

And, while she was a surprise i was so happy to now have a girl : )

I knew with my first she was a girl! With this pregnancy(28 weeks) I thought for sure a boy because everyone I knew was having a boy, but nope...I'm having another girl!

I've never known at all if I was having a girl or boy. I just never could figure it out. I'm so thankful for ultrasounds!! :) By the way, I had 3 boys first, then 3 girls. I'm pregnant with the tie-breaker. Everyone keeps asking what I think I will have. Um. No idea! LOL

I had this baby dream every time I was pregnant (right before I knew I was) and whatever the sex of the baby was in my dream, I had the opposite... I had to wait with my first and second to find out when they were born, I was never 100% until I was told. I just wanted a healthy baby, that's all I cared about. With my last child I had an ultrasound done around 20 weeks that said it was a boy, so I started calling him a boy then... My husband always guess them right from the start...

answers from La Crosse on

with the first 3 I knew they were boys even though I didn't have ultrasounds late enough in my pregnancies to determine the sex. With the first one I had a dream I was carrying around a baby boy.. before I even knew I was pregnant.

with #4 even though I had a feeling he was a boy.. I was still hoping for a girl, ultrasound said differently, he was a boy. but with all of the problems I had with my pregnancy I was just thankful that I was able to carry him full term and he was healthy.

with #5 I had given up all hope of having a girl and when I found out I was pregnant I had already excepted that it was a boy... when the u/s tech said "Im sure she will fit right in with the rest of the brothers" it took me a minute to register what was said... then I looked at my husband then the tech and said... did you say she? She smiled and said yes. I cried for about 15 mins. Called my mom ( who was getting ready to go into her cousins funeral) and told her and cried for a long time agian lol.

congrats on having a girl!!

I was right with my first two. But with #3, we decided to keep the gender a surprise. I was SOOO convinced it was a boy, so I was surprised in the delivery room to meet my sweet daughter!!

answers from Los Angeles on

First off....CONGRATS!!!! Glad to hear everything is going well!
I had no intuituon. I wanted a boy (so did my BF). So I just thought it was a boy, but I was uncertain and didn't know for sure. My dad always knew it was a girl. From the second I told him I was pregnant, and so did another very close friend. I had two students at the time do this old wives tale from their culture on me and they said the results were a girl. Everyone else just thought boy, like me.
US comes, and the only thing they could tell me was the baby was growing great. We were so frustrated we went to an independant US place and he told us right away it was a girl (after getting me in some funky positions, lol).
Congrats again! =)

Congratulations. Thank Heaven for little girls!

I'm really grateful for ultrasounds and being able to find out early. I can't imagine waiting until birth to find out! My 1st 2 babies I knew. The 3rd played hide and seek and I didn't know about her until I was 6 months along. "They said you're pregnant and it's a girl! ma'am, are you ok?" ;)

answers from Chicago on

I was right the first two times(# 1 girl, #2 boy) and wrong the third time. I was so sure #3 was a girl. My husband said boy and he was right. It worked out perfectly to have the baby be the same gender as the middle child. They share a room, and seem like they're going to be really good friends as they grow up.

answers from Philadelphia on

I don't know what I'm having yet, as it's too early. With my first we had talked about lots of names and could only agree on girls names, but about a month into the pregnancy neither of us liked the girls names we discussed and out of the blue we came up with a boys name we loved and actually agreed on. Turns out it was a boy. This time it's the opposite, we can only come up with one name we like and it's for a girl, so I'm hoping it works the same way this time and we are having a girl. In 2 months I should know!

I had no clue at all the entire pregnancy, and about 1 week before I delivered I had a feeling that I was having a girl. I didn't tell anyone, not even my husband or my birthing coach (best friend). That magical moment when the baby cam eout, the doctor yelled "It's A BOY!!!!!" I was sooooooo wrong!

Congratulations!

With my son, I felt sure he was a girl.

With this pregnancy, I felt sure it is a boy, and it's a girl.

So I'm 0-2. LOL

While I've always been good with the "intuition" about others' babies, I was wrong both times with mine. Of course, anyone can be "sure" that someone is having a boy, or having a girl, but it's a 50/50 deal either way, not like picking correctly out of 50 or 100 choices :)
Congrats on the coming baby girl, sisters are the best!

I knew wih my boy it was a boy, and wouldnt think of any girl names. Same with this one! My son knew from the day I told him there was a baby in Mommy's belly that it was his baby sister:) and I had the feeling he was right.
