Shape of your belly and baby's gender

[AquaDementia]

In the past 2-3 days I have had so many people tell me they think I am having a little baby girl since I am carrying high.
Is there any truth behind this?

I am carrying high and I too, thought that I would be expecting a girl initially but it turned out to be a boy!

I guess you should be due for a 20th week scan soon?

 

[AquaDementia]

we had a scan a few weeks back. we don't wanna know!
i am just curious cause i am sort of hoping for a girl.

I carried high with Drake and everyone thought it was a girl lol but nope it wasen't true. I refuse to think anything about the gender until my next U/S or the birth but its so damn hard

 

[AquaDementia]

I bet it's a boy!! i know my baby will want to prove everyone wrong hahaha

I'm carrying a bit low, and I have a strange feeling it's a boy. No connection to carrying low and the gender, but I've just had a feeling all along. I guess this old wive's tale is right up there with the heartrate theory!

Im carrying low and wide/ But keep in mind Im 5'9 and fat, so I think there is no other place for baby to go. We are having a boy

Hmm...I've heard just from like my moms friends that it was the opposite. That they thought with girls you carry lower, and boys higher. I have no idea. I'm carrying kinda low, and its a girl. You're brave for not wanting to know tho, I dont have that much willpower.

i think all the shape thing is a loada crap lol ive carried mine all the same and ill end up with 2 of each

my friend also carried both hers high and she had 1 of each

I don't think it's true about the gender, more the position baby is on or your stage of pregnancy!

 

[Mango]

I don't think there is any correlation as most of it depends on your body's shape etc. I'm carrying low and out front but yeah no idea what I'm having either, so I'm not of much help

 

[Stef]

nah I dont beleive it to be true either.

Im carrying very low and have throughout and shes a girl. x

 

[Firsttimer]

I am hoping for a lil girl going to find out next Thursday so excited but still feels far away............ I am carrying high and wide, but even though I feel baby is low down as thats where it pocks me all the time

The thing that i heard was if you carry at the front a girl and if you get big all the way round a boy.

I carried like a monster with my first who was a boy lol.

But i dont believe in it either.

I cannot remember how I heard it.. but I am carrying midway and having a boy... with the heart beat thing.. they say if it's above 140 its a girl.. NOT TRUE! His was 180 the first time, 167 the second, and 149 this last time..
