Ultrasound Tomorrow!

Tomorrow is the big ultrasound day! Hopefully, if the baby is being cooperative, we will be able to find out if we’re having a little brother or a little sister for Aiden.

I did the list below when I was pregnant with Aiden but I didn’t do it until after we found out he was a boy. I thought it would be fun to highlight all of the symptoms I’ve had to date (including any additional info I might think is important), let anyone out there that’s reading decide what we’re having, and then actually see how it turns out. I would LOVE any of your thoughts before we head to the ultrasound tomorrow.

It’s a boy if:

• You didn’t experience morning sickness in early pregnancy
• Your baby’s heart rate is less than 140 beats per minute
• You are carrying the extra weight out front (this has been very similar to Aiden. I’ve had a few people comment on how I look like I’m losing weight and thus far I have. I do have a belly though.
• Your areolas have darkened considerably
• You are carrying low
• You are craving salty or sour foods
• You are craving protein — meats and cheese
• Your feet are colder than they were before pregnancy
• The hair on your legs has grown faster during pregnancy
• Your hands are very dry (but they're always dry so I'm not sure whether or not to count this one)
• Your pillow faces north when you sleep (actually my pillow faces east)
• Dad-to-be is gaining weight, right along with you
• Pregnancy has you looking better than ever (people say I look happy and “glowing” so I’m gong to go with this one)
• Your urine is bright yellow in color (sometimes it is but usually it’s when I drink a little less water so I don’t know how much weight to actually put on this one)
• Your nose is spreading
• You hang your wedding ring over your belly and it moves in circles (haven't tried this)
• You are having headaches (I do have headaches but I think it’s from stress and sitting in front of the computer all day)
• You add your age at the time of conception and the number for the month you conceived and the sum is an even number

It’s a girl if:

• You had morning sickness early in pregnancy (thus far I haven’t thrown up since approx 17 weeks but am definitely still nauseas at times)
• Your baby’s heart rate is at least 140 beats per minute (pretty much each visit has had the heartbeat at around 140-150)
• You are carrying the weight in your hips and rear
• Your left breast is larger than your right breast (this is a funny one to admit to the public)
• Your hair develops red highlights
• You are carrying high
• Your belly looks like a watermelon (it's definitely more oval than round at this point)
• You are craving sweets
• You are craving fruit
• You crave orange juice
• You don’t look quite as good as normal during pregnancy
• You are moodier than usual during pregnancy
• Your face breaks out more than usual
• You refuse to eat the heel of a loaf of bread
• Your breasts have really blossomed!
• Your pillow faces south when you sleep
• Your urine is a dull yellow color
• You hang your wedding ring over your belly and it moves from side to side
• You add your age at the time of conception and the number for the month you conceived and the sum is an odd number (39)

Any thoughts??
