Anyone else guess celebrity baby genders for fun?

[meeks32]

Just as a way of testing these theories and for fun (because obviously we never have all the details with celebs), I like to try to guess the gender of celebrity babies.

Kim Kardasian - hardly a surprise she's expecting a girl, she was actively loosing weight, had a documented fertility problem and had just had injections to harvest and freeze her eggs, and bubs was an oops baby.

Jessica Simpson's 2nd - This one shocked me, she's expecting a boy and was actively loosing a lot of weight on weight watchers, and he was an oops baby with a sibling close in age, she can't have been doing it THAT often right? Perhaps she was on prenatals for breastfeeding? Or had finally learnt something about nutrition perhaps and had high protein and salt?

Kate Middleton - TBC

Any others?

This is great! I totally do the same thing! Although I hadnt heard yet what either was having so I guess Im not very good at it! Im predicting Kate to have a boy!!

[meeks32]

My money is on girl for Kate due to the fertility issues i assume she had if it took so long ttc after the wedding...but then I guess being royal and planned they probably had her choc full of vitamins so it could go either way.

I think girl too. I also read that she was hospitaltised for hyperemesis gravidarum (severe nausea)

Exactly why I think girl!

I know several people with HG who have boys!

I think celebrity baby gender can be really hard to tell because of the weird crash diets and possible fertility treatments that go on.

I do this sometimes with more effectiveness for celebs who have already had kids, typically boys. Mostly along the lines of "ooo I bet she has all boys" and I am almost always right on that.

A lot of these are more obscure actresses so you can see I really was just going along watching tv/movies and picking up that "boy mom" vibe LOL

Catherine Keener
Claudia Black
Claire Danes
Jennifer Connoly
Mary Louise Parker (also has daughter but she is adopted)
Debra Winger
Lucy Lawless (had a girl when she was really young then boys after that)

[Wanting-a-girl]

Don't you think many celebrities do high tech to get what they want? After all that what they are used too lol...

[jennibel]

I do this all the time.

I notice a lot of celebrity chefs have girls (hot cooking environment). Gordon Ramsey has 3 girls, 1 boy and Jamie Oliver has 3 girls one boy (the last - PGD?).

I am surprised Peaches Geldof had a boy and is having another as she seems very very underweight.

Kate Hudson Britney Spears and Gwen Stefani all have 2 boys and I think they look like healthy eating boy mums?

True, that could really muck up our predictions with ones that have already had kids. I assume most people wouldn't do that for a first child...

Mind you I just guess for fun.

Reh-row, if I was to say I had anything in common with any group of celebrities it would be them... Had to google them all to check but I see the common look and personality in the whole group. Sigh!

Is Claire Danes confirmed boy?

Gwen Stefani didn't surprise me one bit. Britters would be high cal high salt fat and protein surely, but then so should Jessica Simpson have been first time round, yet she had a girl... Then 2nd having a boy while loosing weight... Odd. Kate Hudson is such a boy mum personality despite the super thin bod. Peaches is interesting. She wasn't as thin before the first boy... Wonder what drugs she was on... Seemed like something, lol. Or maybe she was very hippy and super clean eating low fat high protein, lots of raw juices and vitamins?

Ashley Simpson had a boy while young and thin but she is such boy personality (saw a snippet of her on some real life type show, very obsess-y, like me lol)

Victoria Beckham has 3 boys 1 girl and despite being dangerously thin, has super boy mum organise/run the world assertiveness. I would also bet she'd be on vitamins and high protein with a dh who is a sports star. I reckon the girl came from either gender selection IVF or because she was a whoops baby, one time, as she was loosing weight, low nutrient chasing so many boys etc.

Ooh fun. I'm guessing boy for Kate Middleton, I'd imagine the baby was planned and she prob eats a healthy nutritious diet. As for Victoria beckham I'm sure I read that she followed a special diet to get her girl, high in dairy or something. Wonder if thats true. But also seems very likely they went high tech.

[my4leafclover]

yes, I love guessing for celebs!!I figured Kim would have a girl. I think Kate will have a girl also. Oh the names will be fun to see too.

[meeks32]

Names yes! Some are hilarious! Kate will have to go boring there, or a nice old name. But the celeb ones are crackers. Did you see that Holly girl that was one of Hugh Heffners main girls named her poor kid Rainbow? I try to be supportive and glass half full but seriously? Rainbow? That's up there with poor Peaches and Apple.

[mrs magoo]

Kate has to be girl!!! If not I suspect pgd!

[Am3a]

I'm glad someone brought this up! Of course they are doing PGD!

Here are some examples:
David & Victoria Beckham 3boys 1 girl
Lachlan & Sarah Murdoch 2boys 1 girl
Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner 2 girls 1 boy.
Most had their last baby after a big gap.

Can't think of any others but I bet they're are loads! If I had a heap of money, I'd do it!!

[my4leafclover]

I Know, the crazy names. Rainbow and apple are at the top of that list. In the uber-celeb world though somehow it works....hopefully lol

This is a fun thread! I just love doing this with families in my town..except I have no one to talk to it about (no one knows I swayed or about swaying) and this way we all know the people!

There is a girl I follow on Facebook that is big in to weight training and clean eating..eats 6 times a day, a protien in every meal..typical weight training stuff. Anyways she announced she was prego right when I learned about swaying and I though it was so great cuz she just had to have a boy! Seem like the perfect boy lifestyle..anyways she just had a girl!! Already has a boy. I was shocked and a little disapointed since I had just went trough the whole clean eating weight training phase before swaying and thought it was my ticket to a boy! What do we think?? DH has a low sperm count?? Maybe some dryness down there?? LOL give me some hope!

For all you know she may be on clomid, may have been trying for ages, maybe dh has super low sperm count or she was killing the aspirin, drinking and smoking or starving herself. It's not always easy to guess and people sometimes even lie too about what they were doing while TTC.

I have guessed 5/6 recent ones correct in my town. The 1 I got wrong though was on epilepsy medication so perhaps that sways blue.

I think Girl for both Kimmie & Kate :bigsmile:
