Gender Predictions...

During my lunch breaks, I do the occasional searching of new websites that can provide me any information regarding pregnancy, labor & the joys of it all. I mainly like to look for sites that can tell me different symptoms, baby updates, body changes, and expectations based on where I am in this pregnancy.

Today, after reading Angela's baby blog, I decided to partake in the fun gender prediction quizzes. Yes, Dan, I know ... these are not real and should not be counted on has providing 100% factual information. It's for entertainment purposes only. And that's how I look at them.

The majority of quizzes I did came back with the same result - we're having a girl. A few came back with the result of having a boy. Which proves Dan's case that these quizzes don't know what they're talking about because if it was actual - they'd all have the same information.

I'm trying to actually remain neutral with my own gender prediction because I don't want to sway myself heavily into one gender over another. Although I think I've been doing that since I was 17 years old anyway. But I'm hoping if I remain neutral now, when the time comes I'll be just as excited with either gender!

If we have a boy, the name is already picked out & so is the nursery theme. If we have a girl, that's going to be more challenging. I have my list of girl names that I need to run by Dan and then see what he has and then try to make a decision. Then there's a matter of a nursery. I'm not a girly-girl. I'm not into pink, flowery butterflies, and the sets I've seen for a girl is very very pink & frilly. So if it is a girl, I'm hoping something will catch our eye that doesn't make me think of an old lady or a lacey doily.

That's my random thought for the day... we don't know what we're having yet but I thought I'd see what the Chinese Astronomers thought.
