Feeling so down..I feel almost certain my sway failed...

[NewPreggie]

All signs point to girl. High heartbeat 173, morning sickness, Chinese calendar, moon sign...just everything...

I feel disheartened and so sad that I'll probably never have a son. I feel even worse for my husband...

I'm sorry you're feeling upset. None of those things are definitive signs in any way at all. The limbo period is so hard but don't lose heart.

I'm sorry you're feeling so down- I'm feeling convinced my sway was unsuccessful too.

On the upside, I will tell you that my DS1 was conceived with a "girl" moon sign, shows girl on Chinese gender charts, first recorded heartbeat was 169 bpm, and I had hypermedis with him and not with any of my other pregnancies.

I had morning sickness with my son
His heartbeat was also 'girl'
Chinese calendar was girl

And he's now a 19 month old BOY!

They are wives TALES not fact! Xx

00000% of those mean anything. Old Wives Tales are completely unscientific. The majority of mine for DD were boy. Please don't let mumbo jumbo get to you. ♡

Morning sickness affects close to 80% of pregnancies, btw, and studies have correlated it with a sticky pregnancy. A sucky, but actually positive, sign in general.

Thanks everyone!! I am feeling a bit better with everyone's reassurance that old wives tales mean nothing.

I'll be posting my early ultrasound pics soon...any input is appreciated!

I was positive my DS was a girl because of all the old wives tales. At 18 weeks he was clearly all boy! FX you get your boy!

Both my sons had high heart beats. Both above 170. Good luck

My son had high heartbeat (170something) and I was very sick during the pregnancy - all day long - from week 7 to 14.
