Before you found out, or if you were team green, did you have a feeling about the gender of your LO? Did other people? Who was right? Were any old wives tales true for you?

We were team green until the tech slipped up and I KNEW it was a girl. She was a confirmed girl at that point!

I'm only 14 weeks, and we are team green, but I have always felt like I would have a boy. I wavered for a few weeks, but once we had the first ultrasound, I've just felt strongly that this is a boy. I won't know if I'm right until July or August.
So far my only craving has been OJ, and more protein, especially red meat. Moderate morning sickness and my skin didn't go crazy. So... we'll see!

Oh yes, we were Team Green and I was absolutely 100% positive I was having a girl. I was shocked for a split second when DH announced that we had a son!

Ha- it's funny how sure you can be and how wrong!
No but really... I really am SURE it's a boy

I totally knew my son was a boy because my pregnancy was the exact opposite of my daughter's. I knew he was a boy well before 10 weeks and we found out early, at around 13 weeks maybe, that he was a boy.

I was convinced it was a boy but according to the u/s it's a girl!!! I have so much pride that I still wouldn't be shocked if it's a boy and the tech was wrong

I was team green both time, and had no idea with my daughter. I totally knew my son was a boy, though; I was pretty sure from the very beginning!

I knew I would have a boy (even predicted so by DH's fortune telling uncle), but I was hoping for a girl. I had a dream that I was getting an ultrasound, and in front of me I saw a baby boy on the screen. I then had another dream that I was at the park with my son. My instincts were right!

I was convinced I was having a boy, and a psychic told me I would have a boy, and I did!

I was dead sure I'm preggo with a boy and ta da! We're having a boy. I didn't have morning sickness so that wives tale rung true for me, along with a few others.

Yes! We actually had a strong inclination we'd have a girl first(before we were pregnant) and it ended up being true. All the wives tales were wrong though.

I hoped I was having a boy the first time and dreaded a girl. Turned out that we had a boy. Still dreading have a girl this time around and hoping against the odds that it's another boy!
I say against the odds because DH is the eldest with one sister and I'm the youngest with a sister and older brother... there's always at least one sister in every generation as far back as memory serves. I don't want a girl!

I have had a feeling since the very beginning that it is going to be a boy. Everybody around me keeps saying boy too. My fingers are crossed for a girl. I even keep having dreams about little girls even though my gut says boy. We will find out in April (March if I can convince my OB to do a 16 week gender scan)

I had a dream that I was BFing my son shortly after getting my BFP and I did end up having a boy.
I craved meat, especially red meat, like crazy and lost my sweet tooth. I only had a bit of nausea but my normally good skin broke out constantly.

I'm 14 weeks and I have a strong feeling my baby is a girl. I will let you know on Match 14th!

I knew from literally my pregnancy test she was a girl. It was almost fully just a gut feeling but it was also knowing she was conceived a few days before I ovulated. I had read in TCOYF that that could lead to a girl- and it did!

I don't trust my instincts at all - we were team green but I was absolutely certain I was having a boy! My dad was insistent I was having a girl but I "knew" he was wrong. I was all over the place with the old wives tales but they leaned more towards boy....imagine my surprise when DH announced "it's a GIRL!"

with my first i knew almost right away it was a boy. don't know the gender of #2, but i'm leaning boy(we would like a girl)

Everyone thought LO would be a boy from how I was carrying her but I was so so sure she was a girl. The first thing I said when the ultrasound tech said she was a girl was "told you so!" to DH. I was pretty embarrassed!

Yes, and I was dead wrong. Other people were correct in guessing LO was a girl because they said I went nuts for sweets.
