Your fav old wives tale.....


Hey girls what are your most fav old wives tales? Have any of them been true in someone that you know or in one of your own pregnancies? For instance with my pregnancys ive had spots,greasy hair and looked like death! Apparently its supose to mean a girl as she steals all her mothers looks! Well im proof that its a load of poppycock as ive had three boys!

In pregnancy...if your left bb is lower/bigger then your right one...that means you will have a girl.

regarding the heartburn thing..i had TERRIBLE heartburn with my son..he was born with a full head of black hair.
My daughter...i had hardly, if any heartburn and she was born bald.

i think my favorite one is the ring test..thats always fun to do!
