The time has come! We have 2 weeks before we discover the gender of our twin babies-a-brewin’. How can I stand the wait time? I’ve compiled 10 completely worthless (but still fascinating) gender predictions for our twins:
1. Dry hands test: Dry hands=boy. Soft hands=girl…
I have had very dry hands (and feet) so perhaps we have 2 boys?!
2. Upset stomach test: an extremely upset stomach=girl. Less upset=boy.
I have had a horrible appetite, but I haven’t vomited=another point for the boys.
3. Sleep Position: Left=boy, right=girl…
I switch back and forth, so one of each maybe?
3. Cravings: citrus/sweet=girl. Salt=boy…
I have been craving pineapple, and strawberries. Anything sour really. Also, at last my love for chocolate and other sweet things has returned! However, initially it was all salt cravings= another point for one of each!
4. Acne test: Acne=girl. Clear face=boy…
My face tells me we are having girls.
5. Clumsy test: Clumsy=boy. Graceful=girl…
My track record says I was destined to have boys all along.
6. Mama’s face shape: Full face=girl. Thin face=boy…
Thus far my face has actually thinned out (probably with some of the weight loss). Another point for BOYS.
7. Chinese Gender predictor: you just have to take the test online or find a Chinese gender prediction chart:
Another point for Boys!
8. Pendulum test: Circle=girls. Back and forth=boys…
I did this a few times, 4 out of five it went back and forth. Once it circled around my belly. Another point for Both!
9. Evens and odds: If my age and year of conception are both odd/even, it is a girl. If they are different, it’s a boy.
I was 25 when we conceived in 2013. One point for girls!
10. Heart Beat: Less than 150=boy, more than 150=girl.
Our first ultrasound the heartbeats were 181 and 185. Big point for girls!
The most recent doppler test (at 16 weeks) said we had a 150 and a 140… so maybe these kids have settled down and are trying to tell us they are one of each?
Based on these silly tests we have:
5 points for boys
3 points for girls
4 points for one of each.
But who knows what God has in store for us. Shane still thinks we are having two BOYS. I have no clue anymore.
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN!
