If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees. Let no one go there unwarned and unprayed for. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon

According to Old Wive's Tales...

Here are some funny Old Wives's Tales I found on the Internet to help determine our baby's gender:

It's a girl if you:
Crave Chocolate [yes]
Have Acne [surprisingly, no]
Feel moody and crabby [do I really have to answer that?]
Have softer skin [yes, thanks to Burt's Bee's]
Are graceful and demure [definitely not]
Prefer to sleep on your right side [no]
Are carrying wide: [too soon to tell, but so far yes]

It's a boy if you:
Crave sour and salty foods [not one bit]
Have clear skin [yes]
Have no morning sickness/ feel great [no]
Have dry skin [no]
Are very clumsy [all the time]
Prefer to sleep on your left side [yes]
Are carrying high [no]


According to these Old Wives Tales.... it's most likely to be a girl!
We'll see... we're going for an ultrasound at 18 weeks... hopefully we can bribe the doctor to tell us the gender. (Did you know that Chinese doctors are forbidden from telling women the gender? It's because many families still want boys; they are only allowed one child so they will abort the baby girl and try again for a boy.)

How do I feel about having a girl? Ooooh so excited. I want a girl, and Scott wants a boy... we'll see who get's their wish!!
