I knew my baby would be a girl because of the gentle way she moved inside me. Has anyone else ever known ahead of time by their gut feeling, or by another sense?

Nope. I had no idea.
With my first, I thought it was a boy & it was a girl.
With my second, I thought it was twin boys & it was a boy and a girl.
With my third, I thought it was a boy & it was a girl.
With my fourth, I thought it was a girl and... I was right...

Yes - I did not want to know the gender of my baby before he was born but I knew as soon as I learned that I was pregnant that he was a boy. It was just a gut feeling combined with my long-lived desire to have a son (since I was 12). It may only have been wishful thinking but it really felt much stronger than that. We even took much more care in choosing a boy's name and only settled on a girl's - so if we had a girl she would have a name that I don't even like anymore 2 years later.
It was so funny when he was born. While I was in labor the nurse asked me if I thought I knew what the baby was and I said a boy. So, when he came out she said, 'Hey, look what your baby has'.

I had a boy first and everyone said it would be a boy because of the way I was carrying the baby. I did not have a clue what sex it would be. But my second I was convinced and so was everyone else that I was having another boy. What a shock we had when it turned out to be a girl. A lot of people had to exchange the gifts they got us.

yes I had a gut feeling with both of my children and was right just by the way they acted in my stomach and the symptoms I had. My daughter was peaceful and I gained a lot of weight 60 lbs and my son was extremely active and I only gained like 30 something lbs plus I craved salads with my son and so did another lady preggers at the same time with a boy lol and with my daughter everyone at my work was having a boy (6 preggers at one time) I had the only girl they all had similar symptons and I didnt so that is how I guessed her.

I knew with all three of mine, not by the way they moved - just a gut feeling. (Did you use that phase intentionally =)? ) Girl, boy, girl. I hoped for a boy the last time, for my husband's sake (he wanted 2 boys) but I knew it was a girl. Is it women's intuition? I don't know. And if I shared other things that I saw and thought while I was pregnant with my son that I construed as confirmation it was a boy, you'd all think I was a bit NUTS =0)

yes, i knew he was a boy the moment i found out i was pregnant because how much trouble i went though during my pregnancy. i wasn't ready #1 then i had gestational diabetes, preclampcia, then the one test came back saying he was going have spinabifida,the to top it all off 17 1/2 hours of labor a month early and he was still 6.8lbs the doctors said if he had stayed he would have been close to 10lbs. so i knew he was a boy i only hope that the next one will be easier

Yes. I told everyone that my four year old was a girl before I ever had my first ultrasound. Same with my second child. My third is trickier. I thought for sure I was having a boy, due to the fact that I never had morning sickness with the other two. But no, Jessie's a girl, too!

My mom said she knew with all 4 of her children from the very beginning.
Then when my sister had her baby, she told her to stop looking at boy clothes because it would be a girl, and sure enough it was.
Now I am having my baby, and my mom said it would be a boy, I said it would be a girl, but then my mom heard the heartbeat (which she swears will tell you the sex) and now she says it will be a girl. We will see whos right in a couple of months- is she still psychic or did I still that ability from her? I dunno.

Yes. I knew as soon as I saw that line on the EPT test. Just instinct I'm guessing. And I was right. I made everyone wait to see the sex and they hated that! I didn't care though it was my baby and I knew what it was. I think I will make them wait again if I have another one.

We are having a girl. From the time my husband found out, he said it is a girl. I also just kinda knew from the way she moved. My husband wanted a girl so badly he couldn't even look at little babies clothes.
