Ok, does anyone know the common signs that you're having a boy? I know my baby's heart rate is 140 beats/m. I'm getting a lot of hair on my stomach, which I never had before. I know it's normal to get some hair, but i'm starting to look like a wooly mammoth. Lol. You know seeing as how they won't tell you the gender where I am, maybe I can figure it out myself. Hehehe.

Hey :) I live in quebec.. And you can find out the sexe no problem. Doesn't make sense that in nb you can't! Seems so weird.

No boys are usually in the 140s and girls in the 150s

Haha another old wives tale is you become less attractive if your having a boy like they steal ther mothers beauty while shes pregnant so she will only focus on her tummy

actually that wives' tale is for when you are carrying a girl. Your daughter is stealing your beauty.

I had a girl and didn't get sick or feel sick either. In fact, everything pointed to me having a boy, the way I was carrying, how I felt, how I looked - but I had a beautiful girl!!

We have actually decided not to find out the sex of this baby like we did with our first. All these games that we play - fact of fiction - are entertaining.

Good luck to all of you and happy and healthy 9 months

No ive read in several books that it is a boy because he wants all the attention focused on him

its um caca I forgot the guys name's theory how in theory a daughter is attracted to her father and a son attracted to his mother...

But even in books such as what to expect and belly laughs its a boy
