Team Yellow Game: Old Wives' Tales

[Daydreaming]

Hi fellow Yellowers (and other ladies who just fancied playing)

So I'm sure you are like me and have people guessing the sex of your little monkey regularly. I thought we would play a little game of checking the sex using Old Wives' Tales... pics of our bumps and cravings.

1. Carrying all at front = boy, Carrying a bit more at sides = girl
2. Carrying low = boy, Carrying high = girl
3. Craving savoury = boy, Craving sweet = girl

So using our bump pics let's guess what we are having. If you know the sex of your baby you can let us know how successful the test is

Disclaimer: this is just for fun, no science involved.

I will put my example in the next post...

I do know what we are having, but lets see if i measure up to the old wives tales?....

I want sweet things but still crave salt and vinegar crisps lol

Here is my bump at 33 weeks (I'm always surprised at how big I have got!)

1. Carrying at front = boy
2. Carrying high = girl (has gone a tiny bit lower lately, but been high whole pregnancy.
3. Craving sweet = girl

Overall: Girl.

Whilst I am sure it is a boy based on my hubby's family and how lazy our Sausage was during the scans

Well i knew it was a boy before i found out. I craved sweet things but i guess that might have been the diabetes and the fact i was a little depressed from moving about alot from social services x


34 weeks pregnant. Team blue!

hmmm, is hard to tell but I think your bump looks neat like a boy, can't tell if it is high or low from picture?
haha - your cravings are inconclusive

I think the sweet thing is just a cutesy wives tale to be honest

This was my bump last week, better than the one i have attached, i cant decide myself if im low or high but i think bubba has moved around because her movements are just above my pubic bone now

I wonder how many of these will turn out to be correct? My bump is all out front, low, and I've been craving mostly savoury, so it all points to a boy. We'll see, huh?

This pic has already appeared in the bump pics thread, but here it is again. Sorry for the semi-nudity 34+3

I reckon this pic looks a bit higher (just because it doesnt look low at all)

I agree, front and low for you. Baby boy for your according to the rules

 

[SarahCarps2be]

I haven't got a recent pic to upload on my computer, I have on my phone but I've been cut off my phonebill Damnit!

But I think I'm carrying low and all out front. Which would indicate boy.
And craving everything and anything sweet! - Girl.

But, I'm having a boy.
My bumps all out front! So this would kinda be true!

 

[steffy]

Ive carried quite high and more to the sides which is right for a girl. But been a sucker for savory things, esp salt and vinegar crisps - but it has to be walkers! xx

I don't have a pic! Can you guess from my description as we are team yellow? My bump is very low but I have dropped, from behind I don't look pregnant. I had no cravings or pref until now and it's all sour/sweet like limes and sour skittles? Everyone says I have a neat little bump which it is but I know I have gained lbs too. I'll try and get a picture x

Hmmm, low and neat bump sounds boyish. Not sure about your cravings though

 

[Kirsty.Y.84]

Here is my bump at 35 weeks.
I think it is quite high, but not sure. People tell me I am all out front, and all bump, but I have put on 2 and a half stone, so I'm not sure how that can be!
I crave mainly sweet things - fruit, chocolate, but at the beginning I went off things like chocolate!

 

[Journey1]

You do look high to me! Compared to my bump, I've gained a stone and a half. I notice it on my legs and face! You look blooming though

in the interest of your experiment here was my bump at 38 + 4 and she is a girly xx
