Miss or Mister? Brother or Sister?


The countdown to our gender reveal is underway and I am SO excited to know if we are having a girl or a boy. While it would be really nice to have a boy and a girl, part of me feels more comfortable with little girls now and I would love for Charlee to have the bond that only sister have. Although, it might be nice to have someone around to help scare away Charlee's future boyfriends...

Both Eric and I will be thrilled no matter which gender is revealed. We found out we were pregnant at 4 weeks this time around (instead of at 9 weeks like we did with Charlee), so I feel like we've been waiting FOREVER to find out the gender! My mom has some crazy method to find out gender that is never wrong. She says if the baby is born in August it will be a boy. If our jelly bean is born in September it will be a girl. Since I'm having a repeat c-section, chances are that I will be delivering around August 28. However, I have a feeling it's a girl (although I also thought Charlee was going to be a boy, so my intuition on gender isn't so great). So I've done some of those old wives tale gender predictors and here are the results:

My mom's crazy accurate predictor: boy
Mother's intuition: girl
Chinese gender predictor: girl
Ring test: girl
Cravings: (mostly sweet) girl
Carrying: (so far it seems high, but we will see): girl
Stealing my beauty?: girl
Hubby has sympathy weight?: girl
Morning sickness: girl
Extra moody?: boy
Interest of toddlers: girl
Hands are dry: boy

I want to add the heart rate test, but we won't know that until our next appointment on St. Patrick's Day. So stay tuned!

So the results are 3 for boy, 9 for girl. What do you think baby Widener will be?

  1. Oh man I guess that didn't work.

    I hope it's a boy. (Katee) last time with Charlee I thought that she was a girl and this time I kinda think not but deep down maybe girl. I want it to be a boy because I think that Charlee will be s great big sister to a little brother. And then I can buy them matching Minnie outfits
