Here's something to do if you're bored. It's an Italian guess the gender trick that has worked for most of the people I've tried it on. What you do is add up the number of R's in the mother's and father's full names (including middle names, and ladies, use your maiden name) and then you add to that the number of R's in all the months from conception to delivery. If you have an even number of R's, it's a boy. Odd number, it's a girl. The thing is you have to use Italian months, so I'll make it easier for everyone: (January) gennaio = 0 R's (February) febbraio = 1 R (March) marzo = 1 R (April) aprile = 1 R (May) maggio = 0 R's (June) giugno = 0 R's (July) luglio = 0 R's (August) agosto = 0 R's (September) settembre = 1 R (October) ottobre = 1 R (November) novembre = 1 R (December) dicembre = 1 R So if I were pregnant this month (AF is three days late but I'm two scared to test yet!), I would have a boy.

DH (Cameron) would prefer a boy, but really in the end so long as it's healthy. But I have a soft spot for pink . I guess I'm getting a bit ahead of myself, but AF still hasn't shown. If it doesn't come today, I'm going to test tomorrow morning. The only thing that keeps me from testing is that I am cramped and bloated, and I had ovulation cramps later than I expected them this month. I just don't want to be dissapointed like I was last month. Back to top HeatherHerzek Joined: 25 Feb 2005 Posts: 153 Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 12:36 pm    Post subject: You sound like me Dovey. I tested early and my AF showed up sometime yesterday Back to top doveyheart Joined: 17 Nov 2005 Posts: 15 Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 12:50 pm    Post subject: AF is such a pain. I shouldn't complain, because this is my first month TTC after we thought we were pregnant last month (by "accident") and were dissapointed when AF came. Hopefully next month she'll leave you be! Baby dust to you!
