OWT: Clumsiness vs Gracefulness

The Old Wives Tales believe that being pregnant with a girl brings grace and a boy brings many broken dishes and bruises. And I... I am far from graceful. This is a no brainer point for boy.

OWT: Mayan Gender Charts

Apparently, the Mayan Gender charts are figured out like this: Mother's age and year of conception both even or both odd, baby is girl. If the mother's age is even and the year of conception is odd (or vice versa), then baby is boy.

Well, I was 29 when I conceived and I conceived in 2014. Therefore, according to the Mayan Gender Charts, the baby is a boy.

OWT:Chinese Gender Charts

Today's OWT is a pretty common one: the Chinese Gender Charts.

I conceived during the month of April and I was 29 when I conceived. According to this Chinese Gender Chart, the baby is a girl.

OWT: Moodiness

Since being pregnant, I have been so moody. I seem to go from happy to upset super quickly and I've unfortunately (and uncontrollably) been taking some things too seriously that I normally could let just roll off my back. So between being super moody and being super happy, there's no question that I have been supper moody.

The OWT says that if you are moody, you are having a girl (What are they trying to say about females being moody here, huh?). If you haven't been majorly moody, if happiness has ruled you since becoming pregnant, then a boy is in your belly. This point has to go with the moodiness and team girl.

OWT: Cravings

Today's OWT is about my cravings. Are they salty? Are they sweet?

I never really cared for too many sweet things before, but now? I love them. Ice cream? Before.... not so much. Now? We've had it for dinner more often than I like to admit. Fruit? Delish! I could devour a bunch of hot, fresh Krispy Kreme doughnuts and/or chocolate chip cookies right now.

The OWT says that if you crave salty food, you should expect a boy. Sweets your thing? A little girl is in your future. This is an obvious point for girl.

OWT: Headaches

I've had several headaches. Several. And they haven't been too pleasant. Usually escalating to a point of nausea and such pain that can only bring me to tears and make me want to hole up in a dark room until I die (because I can't imagine the headache ending any other way). But this isn't new. I'm no stranger to headaches, but during pregnancy, when I can hardly take anything for them, they are killers.

The OWT says that if you get several bad headaches while pregnant, you are having a boy. I'm not sure if this counts for me because I'm not getting headaches any more often than before. I just can't use drugs to get rid of them. Either way, I'm giving this point to the boy team.
