I was having lunch with a few of my friends at work and one of the girls started talking about this old wives tale to find out how many children you are going to have and the sex of the babies.
Part of me almost screamed at the top of my lungs to do the test to me right now! And pat of me was nervous that it was going to come out that I wasn't having any and I was going to run from the room crying over a stupid trick.
Anyway, you tie a piece of hair around a ring and drag the piece of hair with the ring attached to it across the side of the person's hand (left hand) 7 times while their hand is plam down and they flip their hand over so their palm is facing up and you hold the piece of hair with the ring attached over their palm. If the ring goes side to side it will be a boy and if it goes in a circle it will be a girl. You keep repeating it till the ring is still over your palm.
Of course I don't really believe in this stuff but they did mine 4 times and all 4 times it said I was having three boys!! I guess I am clinging to anything I can because I was truly excited!
The test is freaky though because we did it on a handful of people who already had kids and it really did show how many they had and the gender! Just thought it was something fun to pass along!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
NOW I HAVE TO GO DO IT AND I JUST HAPPEN TO HAVE THREAD AND NEEDLE ON MY DESK! :-) Stay tuned...
So, since then I have felt that my next IVF cycle will be a success and I will have 2 boys and a c-section. I also usually joke and say I will be one of those people who do fertility treatments, have a baby and get pregnant on my own two months after giving birth.
SO, BACK TO THE TEST...
I held needle and thread over palm at a dead stop, it went side to side a few times, stopped for a quick second then then went side to side again! Then it stopped, stayed stopped and then started to go in circles. Then came to complete stop.
Does that mean I am going to have twin boys and then a girl at another point? I will be funny to find out!! :-)
Lioness - so freaky about dream and then the trick. I hope hope hope it comes true soon!
