Boy or Girl?

We're so excited for our 20 week Doctor's appointment! We'll get to see our baby for the first time since our 8 week appt. This is when we are able to find out the sex of Baby Bartlett - but we've decided to wait for the surprise! Ever since my sister waited to find out with her first baby, Reese, I've loved the idea of the surprise. When else in life do you get a real surprise? I'm going to have to make sure my midwife practices saying "It's a..." with excitement so it's all worth it:-)

The fun in waiting is also the guessing game. Everyone, except for Josh and me, seem to have a good guess at what we are having.
Our good friends Megan and Burt are also due in September and are waiting to find out what they are having. She sent me a fun link to 'old wives tells' that will help us to know what we are having. So, I thought it would be fun to share with you...

It's a boy if:

Your belly looks like a basketball: Yes, I think...

Your feet are colder than they were before pregnancy: No
Your hands are very dry: Yes
Dad-to-be is gaining weight, right along with you: Ha Ha
Pregnancy has you looking better than ever: according to Josh, I'm not so sure
Your nose is spreading: Dear Lord, I hope not.
You are having headaches: No
You add your age at the time of conception and the number for the month you conceived and the sum is an even number: Yes


It's a girl if:


You had morning sickness early in pregnancy: Yes
You are carrying the weight in your hips and rear: thankfully, No
Your hair develops red highlights: Yes, someone actually asked me today if I had red hightlights added to my hair
Your belly looks like a watermelon: No

My answers are about even between the two. So, the guessing game continues!
