I got us this far in starting the thread!
How do we want to do this! Are we predicting for ourselves and others if we want? Do we all want to chime in on our guesses and then someone make a list so they are easy to view in one post?
My guess for us is boy!

Yay for a new May thread! Also your new avatar confused me... I was like who is that? haha.
I don't know how to guess for other people... I can barely guess for myself!
I'm saying girl for us due to the totally scientific heartbeat and ramzi methods

hmmm...maybe we can post a list with our own predictions, and then a comparison list of actual gender after anatomy scans (or birth for us team greeners ;-))
I'm guessing boy for me due to gut feeling and heart rate.

Ok! So predict for yourself, once everyone posts we will make into a list and sit on it until anatomy scan's or baby arrival's in May for TG'ers!
@Mae: I decided to change it up, the dog took the kid's spot

@Beebug: Aw, love the dog pic!
I've been thinking of our babies all along as two girls, but the last two ultrasounds they have had very different heartbeats and I think going by the placenta guess, that they might be two different genders. (I still can't figure out exactly what I'm supposed to be looking at for that method, but they look like they are different).
So I am going to go with an official guess of one boy and one girl.

@Beebug: Thanks for starting this!
Chinese gender prediction says Girl (this calculator seems to work same for both conception and due date http://www.chinesegenderchart.info/gender-prediction.php#.UoZ9fxF3vIU)
But...my guess is BOY!

@skipra: according to the Chinese gender prediction I have a boy. but I'm sticking to girl based on how my pregnancy is going

@skipra: Ohhh according to that it says boy!!! I feel like the other chinese gender predictor I've done said girl!

@Beebug: I think some don't convert to the lunar calendar? I know the baby center one gives you different results depending on conception vs due date.
Funny how we all think Chinese prediction is wrong! It was right with DS but wrong for all three of my sister's kids.

I'm so late! Only now noticed this thread.
My guess for us is a BOY! Based on Ramzi's method really... and well DH's gut feeling. Lol.

@Glitter: I have never heard of Ramzi's and I have no idea if my pic flipped.
I really am hoping for a girl, but I'm pretty sure its a boy

@junebugmama: I tried to figure out nub theory but the legs were in the way so you can't see it. Could you see on your last ultrasound?
papaya / 10343 posts
I can't even tell the head from the ass on my last ultrasound (8weeks) so I guess nub theory is out for me haha. But, I find out in less than 2 weeks!

have you guys had dreams about the baby and what it is? my SIL dreamt from the beginning that she was having a boy and was right. I have had lots of crazy dreams but not one of them has had a baby in it. my prediction based on a few theories and what everyone is telling me is girl .. but me and DH kind of think its a boy. I don't know how the team greeners do it - I would be guessing the whole time!

@mrsog: I've only had one dream where I had a baby and it was very very odd. Like, the child was clearly half black (both my hub and I are white) and he was there, as were our families, and none of us seemed to think that was surprising lol. Also the baby was so tiny I could put it in my pocket. Which also was not surprising or concerning to us. Gender wasn't really a big part of the dream so I'm not certain but I feel like the baby in the dream was a boy. My friend said her doc told her 80% of dreams about gender are correct. But considering that I really don't think I'm going to have a racially impossible pocket-sized child… I don't know that I can trust the dream of it being a boy haha.
I'm still guessing girl, but we'll see!

@mrsog: I've had tons of weird and crazy dreams lately, but I don't think any of them have had babies in them either!
@Mae: Hahaha, awesome dream 
I think that last time I dreamt "girl" a lot, and ended up having a girl.
pomegranate / 3350 posts
@Mae: My cousin told me when she was pregnant she had a dream that she had a daughter that looked just like her. Well, her daughter is about 10 now and practically identical!
I really haven't had any dreams about this baby. I didn't have many about DS either but I do remember one and he was an older baby, walking around in just a diaper. I couldn't tell if he was a boy or a girl but he was definitely really blonde just like he actually is!
With DS pretty much everyone thought he was a boy even though we didn't know. We called him "he" and his in utero nickname was Hamish. I guess it's just that gut instinct!

@skipra: funny our nicknames have all been boys too! We pick a new one every week based on what my app says the size is. Last week was Avocado so we called him/her Avi. This week it said Turnip so the name is Ted the Turnip.
Weirdly Avi kind of grew on my husband and wants to consider it for a real name now! I don't know though. I like it but I feel like it is a name strongly associated with the Jewish community and it would be weird to name our kid that. Sort of like how i wouldn't name a kid Antonio because we're not Italian.

@Mae: lol that dream is hilarious. the things that go through our minds at night are so bizarre
@skipra: we haven't even given it a nickname! we call it baby - how boring is that?? I am a big nickname person too so its odd that I have just nothing when it comes to my baby.
we wrote boy on one piece of paper and girl on the other and put a treat on each one and then called our dog over and he chose girl - so even hes guessing girl

We had originally nicknamed the baby "bean"...but now i've just been calling her/him "new baby". haha...so original.
pomegranate / 3917 posts
@cookie_dough: We called DD "bean" and still call her bean or beanie now, this one hasn't gotten a nickname...yet!

My prediction for me is girl because my pregnancy so far has been really different from the last with DS. We'll see
persimmon / 1281 posts
Just remembered to update this board that my prediction was correct and we are having a BOY!! (thanks Ramzi)

@mrsog: I haven't had a single dream with the babies in it. In fact, most of the time in my dreams I'm not even pregnant, but then halfway through it's like my brain remembers I am pregnant and all of a sudden I have a HUGE stomach. That part is probably actually prophetic...
@Mae: That is such a weird dream! Long before I was actually pregnant, I used to have sporadic dreams where I'd give birth to a mouse or a puppy or a tiny little pony. And it always seemed totally normal in the context of the dream, like OF COURSE I just gave birth to Stuart Little, no big deal.
