With my first I knew as soon as I POAS it was a boy, and it was! This pregnancy I have absolutely no idea. (8 weeks so far).
When did you get a feeling of what gender you were having? If at all.

When my symptoms in my first trimester were completely different from my first pregnancy.... and my strong aversion to chocolate/sweets!

I was really hoping it was a girl. I think it was around 8 weeks or so that I started saying "she" when referring to LO because I was totally convinced it was a girl. I was right!

Pretty quickly into the pregnancy, actually. I just had a gut feeling it was a girl, and I was right (well, pending birth, but two ultrasounds confirmed female parts).

I was about 20 weeks when I started to exclusively refer to baby as "she/her". I was right!

Really early-- like, before I was pregnant I thought I would have a boy, then very early on, like first few weeks after BFP, I started really feeling boy. I've waivered occasionally but I still really feel like it's a boy. I'll find out in a few weeks (team green and baby is almost ready!!)

The morning I went in for my ultrasound I was digging something out of the bag with my wedding dress & accessories and I had an overwhelming feeling that I wouldn't be giving them to a daughter because I was pregnant with a boy. YEP!

I thought girl...and I only thought that because, I REALLY wanted a boy, and I figured, with my luck, i'll get a girl because I want a boy. Of course, I would have been SOOOOO happy with either, but I asked God for a boy.
So, when we found out it was a boy, I was like "be 100% sure! Don't get my hopes up!"

@TurtleDoves: that's exactly how I felt with my first pregnancy - i wanted a girl sooo badly that i swore that it would be a boy... i was a little in disbelief when the ultrasound tech said girl!

As soon as I saw my BFP I knew it was a girl. I called her she a few times and DH would correct me because we didn't know yet, but I was right! Even with a lack of morning sickness and other girl old wives tales, I knew she was a girl!

I'm 10 weeks. In the past couple weeks, I've just thought of the baby as a boy. I have no idea if I'm right and won't until birth.

With DD I knew it was a girl. I'm hoping I'll have that same intuition next time.

With DD, I had an underlying feeling it was a girl but didn't want to let myself believe it as I really wanted a girl and didn't want to be disappointed if it was a boy. So I convinced myself the entire pregnancy it was a boy and it was only once I was in labour, that I started really thinking it might be a girl......and it was (TG over here)!
This time, at 10.5 weeks, I really feel as though it's a girl, but only because I have an insatiable sweet tooth! I want to find out this time but DH is adamant he wants to be TG again so guess we have a long wait until we find out....

At the beginning I strongly felt it was a girl, but as soon as I started feeling movements and kicks I couldn't imagine the baby being anything but ALL BOY! And he was!

I was convinced I was having boys as soon I found out I was pregnant.

DH and I thought she was a boy for quite some time..then a couple nights before my ultrasound I started having dreams about my *daughter* and just knew it was a girl! I was right!

With E I was sure right away that he was a boy. Then at my 13 week scan they guessed girl which totally threw me for a loop so I convinced myself I was having a girl. At 17 weeks he was for sure boy!
This time I had a gut feeling of girl from the beginning. I tried to convince myself it was a boy though because I was getting my heart set on having a girl. There are very rarely girls born in DH's family so I didn't want to get my hopes up. But it's a girl!

With A I knew she was a girl right away and with this one I also think girl

I "knew" it was a boy until the first ultrasound at 9 weeks. Then for whatever reason I had a gut feeling for girl. She is a she

@Springtime: EXACTLY the same as you. I knew my son was a boy. I'm 17 weeks now with my 2nd and still have no clue. I see my doctor this coming week and I'm really hoping he will clear up the mystery.

I don't know when exactly but it was pretty early on that I decided we were having a boy. I was 10000% sure. I even went ahead and got some boyish clothes. I couldn't have been more wrong! There is a distinct lack of boy parts in there! I was so excited and caught off guard when we saw how very little she has going on. Even had them recheck at our 3D U/S. Yep. Definitely not when my gut told me.

I always had strong feelings about having a girl but shortly after I got my BFP I was drawn towards all the cute boy stuff. I'm thinking its going to be a tie! One boy & one girl. Only 7 more weeks till we find out!!!

Pretty much right away I began to feel I am carrying a girl. I think because everyone around me this year has had boys, I feel like I am going to help even out the population a little. Have to wait a few more weeks to find out!
GOLD / coconut / 8266 posts
I started feeling like baby was a girl halfway through when I found out most everyone else was having a boy IRL. DH was convinced baby was a boy. I was right!

Around 8 weeks, I thought it was a girl.. My dog's reaction to our reveal shoot solidified my gut feeling (she was much more excited/engaged with the girl shoot than the boy shoot and the girl shoot was second).

Never. I kind of pictured a girl but never had a concrete 'feeling' - and what I pictured was wrong anyways. But I would never say I had a gut instinct or anything like that about it - really, I don't think such a thing exists, people just think it does because they were right with a previous child or know someone who insists they knew it was a boy/girl. I think they were right because they had a 50% chance of that happening, haha.

I really wanted a boy last time, felt it was a boy and was right. This time I really want a girl but have no clue. Although, for some reason I can see myself as that mom of 4 boys trying 'one more time' for a girl

@evansjamie:This is precious and totally something I would take to heart, too.
