I've mentioned before, that D and I are waiting until the baby's born to find out the sex. Honestly, I didn't really care if we waited or not, but D's opinion is, "there are only a few real surprises in life and this is one of them." So I'm going with him in that.
This waiting-game turns out to be a lot of fun for my friends and relatives, especially my sisters and nieces. I got a text from my older sister telling me she dreamed I had a girl named Olivia. I got a text from my younger sister saying she thinks it's a boy (which was also the first thing she said to me when I told her I was pregnant). My nieces both think it's a girl. With only sisters, and nothing but girls for cousins, it would seem I'm destined to have a girl (if you buy into that sort of thing). However, D only has brothers, and plenty of boy cousins. When D refers to the baby, he calls it "she." I'm not sure if he really thinks it's a girl, or if he's saying "she" in a generic way like you'd refer to a car or a boat.
Honestly, not holding with superstition, I have no idea. I don't have any feelings or intuitions in those directions. But I'm enjoying the ever increasing squirming I feel as "she" swims around in the mothership.
