A bunch of people in my family (including my mom) are either lefty or ambidextrous, so I'm crossing my fingers for a south paw! I think leftiness is super cool. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-60565 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 13:28:34 +0000 Shutterbug 60565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a lefty, and I always take note of other lefties, both in my life and famous people. Barack Obama is a lefty - actually, 4 out of the last 5 US Presidents were lefties! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-60541 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 13:11:40 +0000 Rescuemom10 60541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I write left handed, but I do most every thing else right handed, throw a ball, stir food, etc..all right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-60518 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 13:01:27 +0000 aunt pol 60518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well I think we're unusual- we're both lefties, and of his five siblings, his older brother and sister are lefties too. So his mother has six children and the first three are lefties, the second three righties. Both parents righties. And DH's older brothers wife is a leftie, as is one if his younger sisters' boyfriends. Six siblings, six partners, equally split hand- wise.<br /> @cyndistar - I'm amazed to hear you say that- it was very much the done thing here years ago and many children were beaten until they used their right hands, but the horrific practice died out in the 60's/ v early 70's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59964 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:22:26 +0000 lemondrop 59964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a righty, my husband is a lefty, we are hoping Cam is a lefty- we could totally go with him being a southpaw on the pitchers mound! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59891 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:34:43 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 59891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a righty, husband is a lefty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59884 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:26:23 +0000 yin 59884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my husband and I are right handed, but we think our LO might be left handed. He tends to grab and use his left hand the most. I wish I could be both. When I was younger I trained myself to use the mouse with my left hand to give my right hand a break. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59880 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:23:35 +0000 mynoahbear 59880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a righty.

I can't do think right handed... I write, eat, throw all left handed! Hubs is a righty. Both our moms are lefties, so I'm hoping for our LO to be a lefty (once we have one!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59817 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:51:54 +0000 Boogs 59817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I are both leftys. We have a number males in my family that are leftys so we shall see what LO ends up being. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59812 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:49:11 +0000 cyndistar3 59812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was supposed to be left handed but I went to this private school for pre-k and kindergarten and they made me be right handed. So I can write with both mostly with my right. My husband is right handed and our daughter ended up being left handed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59796 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:42:49 +0000 Rubies 59796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hubs and I are both righties but we think LO might be a lefty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-righty-of-a-lefty-or-ambidexterous#post-59713 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:13:24 +0000 Pepper 59713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a righty, DH is a lefty.
