Re: question about how you carry

The "old wives tale" is that if you carry all up front high like a basketball it's a boy. If you carry more, all around you, it's a girl.

But again, they're old wives tales. Fo rme it rings true as I'm carry very stereotypically boy and I'm having a Chat Icon . But for every one of us that matches the scenario there's definitely someone that doesn't.

I believe that's the "tale" but I don't know if it really holds any truth. Some of my boys I got really wide and high and one was so low it looked like I dropped at 5 months. This one I'm super high so we'll see if it holds any truth in a few weeks!

Old wives tale............

I am carrying all in front, you can't even tell I'm PG if you look at me from behind and I'm having a Chat Icon By the old wives tale I am carrying typical for a boy....

I think it's totally an old wives tale.

People are surprised when I tell them I'm having a girl because I'm carrying the way people say you carry when you have a boy.

Personally I think it's all crap. I had many people tell me it was a girl and its a boy. I swear its just something for them to say to you.

Re: question about how you carry

I personal don't believe in the old wives tell myself. I'm carrying very small but wide. I'm having a girl. One of my girlfriends was carrying all over and everyone was saying def a Chat Icon , but she had a Chat Icon
