How did you know you were having a boy/girl?

Question

I’m interested to know if anyone has been able to predict the gender of their baby, without finding out from a scan or test obviously. 
Were there any signs or symptoms that gave it away for you? Or did you do any home tests (bicarb soda etc.) that we’re accurate? 👶

Answer

I've been wrong every single time. Lol

Answer

My third pregnancy has been completely different. Convinced it was a girl. Nope! Three boys for me 💙💙💙

Answer

I knew by the difference in my pregnancy’s. Personally my daughter’s pregnancy was a lot harder than this one. Then of course the heart beat in my experience and opinion usually boys have lower heart beats (yes a female could too but not in my experience) I told my ultrasound tech by the heart beat I guess boy, she agreed. I got my NIPT test and a 4D ultrasound that confirmed he’s a boy💙

Answer

I just new she was a girl in my gut :)

Answer

For my first 2 the fact that I had morning sickness with my girl and not with my boy helped me to know my second was a boy. My third was also a boy but I was sick, so that blew that one out of the water. I felt the same for the next few, whether boy or girl, the same level of sick for the same amount of time. Then it was cucumbers. I don't like cucumbers... at all. But when I'd be pregnant with a boy I'd really like them. With a girl, I continued to hate them. Then I tried them with one. I hated them. This was a surefire sign for me always. I was having a girl. Nope. It was boy. Now that doesn't work anymore. Then it was which side of my tummy I'd consistently find the heartbeat. But this baby is on 1 side, then the other, then the first side, then the middle,  so that doesn't work anymore. It was once whichever gender I dreamed I was having. But I haven't even dreamed of this baby yet, so nope. Intuition was correct for a few,  coincidentally, but not for others. It's fun to do so the gender predictions, but out of 50, I usually get a pretty even split. The heartbeat for my first couple girls averaged 170's-180's, and for my boys 150's-160's. But then I had both boys and girls at 160's. This one has been in the 150's. I have no clue. I've done the nub theory, but my ultrasound was a bit early for an accurate prediction. So who knows? It is fun to try to figure out though.

Answer

Symptoms and home tests are all 50/50 so you won’t really know until either blood test or ultrasound confirms it. Even then, it’s sometimes incorrect

Answer

I knew in my gut she was a girl and also the symptoms were COMPLETELY different from my sons

Answer

We’re having a boy. 
I always thought it was a girl and then a few days before we had the ultrasound I changed my mind to boy because why would I guess right lol So I guess I technically was right.

Answer

I always wanted a little girl and hoped and prayed for her. But I assumed I would have a boy. Literally everyone and when I say everyone I mean complete strangers all told me I was having a girl based on how I was carrying her. They ended up being right. I think it was a coincidence

Answer

I always have the typical sweet/sour cravings. Chocolate made me so sick when I normally love it this time around. I want pickles and spicy stuff
