What is Baby Williams going to be?

Old Wives tales

Soft or dry skin? Mine has dry (especially my hair) which indicates BOY!

Have you felt glowing or less than beautiful and had lots of breakouts? I have not had breakouts like I did with Lauren. Little girls are supposed to cause breakouts so... BOY!

Heartbeat indicator: According to legend, 140+ beats per minute indicates a girl, and below 140 a boy. So far the heartbeats have been high (last time was 166) which is said to be an indicator of a GIRL!

Craving sweet or salty?: Sweets which is an indicator of GIRL! However I craved sweets with Colton too and didn't with Lauren so this one is up in the air. According to my own kids I would say BOY!

Dreams- Some people say whatever you dream about is what you are having. Others have said that you have opposite of what you have been dreaming about. I have yet to dream about the sex of this baby. So another one up in the air.

Carrying - If you're carrying high, break out the pink. If your bump is low, you're carrying a boy. I think I'm carrying low so BOY!

Potty Time - This one's a little out there. Pee in a cup, mix a tablespoon of Drano in, and watch to see if it changes color. Green = girl, and blue = boy. Results? Mine was more green than blue...but was not real clear either way so indication = GIRL!

Even and Odd - Legend has it that the Mayans determined a baby's sex by looking at the mother's age at conception and the year of conception. If both are even or odd, it's a girl. If one's even and one's odd, it's a boy. Correct with Lauren and Colton so indication = GIRL!

Nice Ring to It - Pop off your wedding ring and tie it to a string. Hang it over your belly. If it swings in a circle, a little guy's in your future. If it goes back and forth, you've got a girl. Indication = BOY!

Queasy Does It - Sick as a dog during the first trimester -- or still? Signs indicate you're having a girl. Little or no morning sickness points to a boy. - I would say little or no morning sickness as I was just queasy but never sick with Colton and this baby...and was never sick or even queasy with Lauren so indication = up in the air...however according to my own kids I would say BOY since it followed Colton's pattern.

Chinese Gender Calendar predicts it's a GIRL! and it has been correct with Lauren and Colton...so we shall see!


What's the tally? That's 4 for Boy and 6 for Girl based on the old wives tales. If we factor in the 2 'based on my own kids' it would be 6 for Boy and 4 for Girl.


My guess is honestly still up in the air. I have thought boy for the longest time but just over the past week have thought maybe it's a girl...so we shall see! What are your guesses??? Be sure to vote in the poll on the right side of the blog!

Can I vote twice? Once for "Boy" and again for "Girl?" LOL I really don't have an idea this time.
