Gender predictions

It has been really fun to do some things a little differently with this pregnancy. We actually get to decorate a nursery for the first time! Our living situations when the girls were born didn't allow for that. When Molly was born we were living in a one bedroom cabin, so we did our best to decorate her corner of our shared room. Then, when Ellie was born, we were still in the midst of transition and were living with my parents. Once again, she shared our room and then eventually started sharing a room with Molly. So, it is fun to plan and decorate this baby's room. This baby is actually getting several new things for being the third!

As I've mentioned before, another fun change is that the gender of this little one is still a surprise. Again, I know this is still a shocker to many that I'm actually going for the surprise. I have to say that I haven't regretted that decision at all. I'm really enjoying the anticipation and wondering. Of course, I'm starting to really look forward to finding out if we will be adding another little girl to the mix or change things up with a little boy!

Recently I've become more curious about everyone else's gender predictions for baby #3. So, I've added a poll to the blog (see top right). Let me know what you think...leave a comment too!

Our predictions are as follows:

Eric: definitely another girl

Molly: wants another sister

Ellie: she was convinced it was a girl and just recently changed her tune, so now she says boy

Me: boy...not for any particular reason (people keep asking if I feel different this time...nope, just feel pregnant!)

What do you think?

I think a boy, but I think some of that is because I really want you to be having a boy as well!

I voted girl . . .I figure we can't be the only ones with 3 of the same! :-)

I said girl! If I were to have a third, I would want a girl because that is all I know!

I would have to know more about your charting information to make my guess. (Although, I had my first wrong guess just recently using that theory. I guessed girl based on the theory in "Taking Charge of Your Fertility, but my friend is really having a boy.)
I'm gonna go with boy since that's what I had (when I thought I wouldn't get pregnant due to a short luteal phase).
