Are the Myths true?!

Question

Here I am at 26 weeks with my daughter (short hair no glasses) and son (hair up and glasses). I feel like I look pretty similar other than carrying him a little lower and my belly with him seems rounder. Anyone else have thoughts?! Are the old wives tales true?

Answer

No. I don't believe it. Second and third babies are usually lower because your abs are not as toned from the weight of your first baby.

Answer

I've carried the same with all mine.  I have a super short torso tho, so they run out of room around this time and I just look like I'm smuggling a beach ball everywhere I go.  3 boys, 1 girl btw.  One thing I have noticed is weight in faces...given that there isn't a ton of weight loss from morning sickness...women with girls tend to have fuller faces than women with boys.  That was true for me and a lot of the ladies I know anyway...

Answer

My butt and thighs are less big with this pregnancy (boy this time), despite an identical weight gain (so far). That's kinda weird, right?

Answer

All the wives tales lead me to believe I was pregnant with a boy, but nope...it's a girl! 😊

Answer

Nope I have two girls and now I'm having a boy and I've carried all of them low.

Answer

I'm having a girl and I believe I'm carrying her low.

Answer

Your current pregnancy you are carrying lower.  I am carrying my boy lower than I did my daughter, which sucks because that means he is all out front and shows a lot more.

Answer

Yep.. carried my daughter high, gained 70 lbs and was big everywhere. Carrying my son low, only gained 20 so far and it's all belly.

Answer

Boy - carrying low!

Answer

I'm having a girl and I'm carrying high
