    However....I did find that the high bump theory about it being a girl...was indeed correct!:p (and am really chuffed - however, I think OH is worried about gaining a mini-me!)

    Yay!!! *happy dance* :j Team pink for you and team blue for me :)

    Well, everyone who saw my low bump kept telling me that I'm having a boy and they were all right!
  • congrats to you too snozberry!
    Metranil dreams of becoming a neon,
    You don't even take him seriously,
    How am I going to get to heaven?,
    When I'm just balanced so precariously..

    congrats to you too snozberry!

    Thanks :) I had my scan last week though. It makes it more real when you find out the gender. Surprises and me don't mix well lol

    Hmm, I'm not sure if my bump is high or low, how do you tell?

    My bump rises from just under my boobs - its like a shelf already! I can put a dinner plate on it when I am sitting down! Its slightly more above my belly button than below. Don't know how factual the theory is but it worked! I also did Bounty's gender predictor last night and that was also right!:rotfl:Go here and have a go! Bounty

    So pleased you got to have your scan today IHateDida and all ok - and my prediction was right so I'm delighted :D
    I'm really in two minds about whether to find out the sex of the baby or not! I've always said I wouldn't, but I'm getting SO curious now! Had a really weird dream about it being a girl last night, and now I just want to know!

    I reckon you could get a job in baby prediction!!! What do you think you are having?

    I read a good idea somewhere that if you are in 2 minds - ask the sonographer to write it down and seal it in an envelope without telling you at your scan - then if you ever fancy knowing at a later date - you can just open the envelope!

    I am glad I found out - I hate not knowing things and I like to plan. It makes choosing a name easier as well.

    But obviously some people like a surprise - but it wasn't for me - I have always been the one that pokes my Xmas pressies before Xmas day!!!:D

    The bulk of my bump is below my belly button. Lol I just did the Bounty test and that said that I'm having a boy as well. Spooky lol

    I vote GIRL! :p

    Ooo, Bounty says girl. I think my bump does start under my boobs, but I'm pretty sure the bit above my belly button is cake/crisps/flab, rather than baby :o Not sure if that makes a difference? Only just over a week til we (hopefully) find out :)

    Apparently cravings for sweet things indicate a girl, so I'm guessing a pink bump for you, Mrsj. And looking good for blue, snozberry. It'll be interesting to see how accurate the bump theory and cravings are.

    Actually, I'm mostly off sweet things at the moment, which is most unlike me. I made a Christmas cake and finally ate the last piece this week, but I didn't particularly enjoy it (I'd put too much effort into it to let it go to waste :o) I'm much keener on savoury things, which suggests boy. Then again, my major craving with DS was red grapes, which would surely come under "sweet things"?

    Dammit! I just want to know! :p

    We went for a surprise the first time, and it was nice to still have the excitement of finding out the flavour after the hard work was done - though the midwife did hold him in front of my face and say "oo, you've got one with accessories" to announce the gender! :rotfl:
    You can do anything, make anything, dream anything. If you change the world, the world will change.
