I finally had it--"The Dream". The Dream where you supposedly know whether you are having a boy or a girl. I was starting to think that I am having a girl because so many people guess that I am having a girl. (When you hear it enough, it gets stuck in your head.) Then, the other day I woke up from a very vivid dream of a little baby boy. In the dream I was in labor and the baby was put on my chest after delivery. Everyone in the room looked down and saw the same thing--a little penis! Adam announced in the delivery room that it was a boy. The baby boy had a perfect little man hair-do with dark, thick hair. We spent the next week with the baby in a tropical paradise swimming and enjoying the beach. (I said it was a DREAM!!)
My mom said that she "knew" with both Colin and I what she was having. When she was pregnant with me she had an overwhelming "rush" in the shower and knew it was a girl. With Colin, she had The Dream and knew it was a boy. My cousin Nicole also had The Dream when she was pregnant with Hudson, and true to her dream, she had a handsome baby boy.
I wonder...how many people have had The Dream and had it be wrong? Also, what if I have another dream further along in my pregnancy of a baby girl? Does the most recent dream supersede the last?
I am definitely not convinced by my dream. I am having a lot of fun guessing and would be equally thrilled with a boy or a girl. Although, we are having a much harder time deciding on a boy's name than a girl's name, so we had better get to work !

Tracy-I had the dream and it was right on. So glad all is well. Enjoy the kicks they are amazing and never get old.
I didnt wait long before finding out I was having a girl but everything in me said I was having a baby BOY! I even double and triple checked the ultrasound to make sure the inital one was correct. I did have a dream following the ultrasound and it was always a boy??? My dream too might have been influenced by all that, plus all my new mom friends all had girls but 2.
Plus, I think you and Nicole are both having beautiful baby girls. :)
Oh my gosh!! My theory on "you will have whichever gender you DON'T have a name for" might turn out to be true!! I am so excited to see! And I think the most recent dream supersedes... so we will just have to see if you have any more dreams. Next time you are here we will also go to the tailor who guesses! Guessing is so much fun and I am excited that Adam will get to 'announce it' in the delivery room!
