I just got a lecture from one of the cleaning staff at the hospital in the bathroom about how I'm having a girl. "You look too good. Your belly is too beautiful. It's a girl." As I left, the other women in the bathroom were debating whether it was a boy or girl.
I know some pregnant women dislike the constant discussion about what they're having, having strangers come up and touch their belly, being told they're too big/small/heavy/whatever. I don't mind it. I find that people are so much more likely to start a conversation with me, although it's always about me as a pregnant woman rather than me as me. That's okay. It's exciting for everyone! However, last week one man asked if I was having one big boy or twins. I replied politely, "We don't know, but whatever it is, it's coming soon, and we're pretty excited."
Yeeshers.

That's pretty sweet. I've never heard the your too pretty to be having a boy thing... only if you're carrying high or low. Everyone has a theory right?! We're getting excited for you guys too!
ReplyDeleteThere are so many wives' tales, and we really have a 50/50 chance. I loved this lady for the fact that she is the first stranger to say that I looked like I was carrying a girl. Are you guys planning a visit back here anytime soon?
