Even my sisters are righties. So I don't m is where I get it from but I love it. Thank goodness for dry liquid paper. My hand was full in highschool with the liquid stuff </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235755 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 12:30:57 +0000 leelee 235755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!</p> <p>DH and I are both lefties. DH really wants DD to be a lefty, I have a feeling she'll be a righty though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235679 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 12:10:48 +0000 yin 235679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was rooting for my LO to be a lefty, but it looks like he is a righty. Both DH and I are right handed, and I don't know anyone in our families that are left handed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235608 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 11:50:56 +0000 sorrycharlie 235608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cool! My dad is a leftie, I'm a righty. There's a slim shot LO could be a leftie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235530 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 11:31:29 +0000 dookie32 235530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a lefty- I'm hoping my son is going to be as well. He's only 4 months but he does favor his left hand for soothing so I'm hoping that's a good sign :). </p> <p>I have to say though- I do get annoyed with being a lefty sometimes. It really makes it so much harder to learn anything new. Whenever you take any kind of lessons (for me it's been guitar, golf, tennis) the teachers are always righties and you can never mimic them since it's backwards. I wanted to take up knitting a few years ago and I decided against it because I just knew without someone lefty to learn from it was going to be twice as hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235505 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 11:16:30 +0000 Mrs. Pen 235505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope my son is a lefty too!! </p> <p>The genetics on it don't make sense at all though. My cousin is a lefty, who married a lefty and they have three kids who are all righty's. WEIRD. My grandma was a lefty, but none of her kids were and out of her 20 grandchildren, I'm the only one who is a lefty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235452 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 11:04:12 +0000 mediagirl 235452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a righty who can do everything except write with my left hand. I prefer it when doing things like holding the baby, breastfeeding, playing ping pong (random, I know). I hope our little girl is a lefty!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235414 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 10:52:54 +0000 chopsuey 235414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HAha. My sister's a lefty and we have quite a few lefties on my mom's side of the fam.<br /> DH and I are both righties and looks like LO is a righty too! wOot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-son-is-a-lefty-makes-mama-proud#post-235409 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 10:51:40 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 235409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mavrick is by far a lefty. He kicks with his left foot, throws with his left arm, eats with his left hand and even colors with it. Sure he tries to use his right hand but he switches hand and continues with his left. Being a lefty myself, I can't help but be proud. </p> <p>Sure they say we have a shorter life span, but heck we are creative and smart and we simply rock!!!!! </p> <p>Hubs is a right handed. Happy I won this battle. Wonder what Sienna will be. </p> <p>Are you a lefty? If so, do you want your kids to be lefties as well? </p>
