Wive's tales on gender

One that i believed was if you crave cheese and meat then its a boy. I was pregnant with a boy. The whole time i wanted bologna sandwiches and cheese curls. LOL!

Here we had the needle and thread. Place it over the palm or belly. If the needle swings back and forth it is a boy and a circle is a girl, I think? or the other way around, I can't remember. I also heard of how we carried them tale too. Another was that when you are pregnant with girls you are worn out but glow after birth. When you have boys you glow during pregnancy and worn out afterwards. The nurse in the hospital with my second child said that I was having a boy because a girl wouldn't put me through this much pain. LOL All I know is that I was wrong for each of my three pregnancies and my sister was right each time.

I heard my fair share of them also. They used a pencil with a string tied to the end of it and it all depends on which way the pencil spins as to what gender your baby was going to be. They also used to say that carrying high or low would predict it also. I do not have any sure fire methods.
