Hello ladies!!! Have any of you ever
heard of determining pregnancy by looking
at your throat? It's said that if you
can see a dramatic pulsation that you may
be pregnant. I thought that was a little
strange, seeing as how you need to breathe
to survive! I think my mom was joking
around to try to get some info out of me!
She said her mother told her and my aunts
this when they were younger, and that my
grandma guessed right everytime! She
said it works best if you keep your arms
at your side and have someone else look or
to look in the mirror (breathing
regularly). You are supposed to see the
pulse right at the center of where the
throat and collar bone meet. :lol:
ps: I know the only way to determine is to
take a test and/or get bloodwork.

Old Wives Tale. Posted: 11-12-05 17:25pm
I think its an old wives tale... There
are alot of old wives tales about
pregnancy.. Like, if you carry high its a
boy, and carrying low means a girl (altho
I think this one can be true sometimes!)

Never heard that, lol
oh, btw its the opposite, if its low its
boy, if its high its a girl :-p still,
could be wrong
i also heard that if its a boy it has a
slower heart rate and if its a girl its
fast. I think that ones only 50% correct,
cuz they told my mom I was gunna be a boy,
based on my heart rate, lol, but my baby
has a fast heart rate and its a girl...
So *shrugs*
