I'm wondering about the one that lots of heartburn equals a baby with lots of hair.  I've had HB every day since 10 weeks.  I'm now up to 1 Pepcid per day supplemented with about 5-6 Tums throughout the day.  I will prob. have to go to 2 Pepcids + Tums at some point.

My sister ate a LOT of spicy food, which means a bald baby, and she is NOT bald.

I went thru a bottle of tums about every 1-2wks in my third tri and Tyler had tons of hair.

My old wives' tales were all wrong too.  I had the same as dmsn except the ring test--didnt do that one. --Oh but the Chinese gender predicter chart was right.

alb-- The heartburn worked for me! I had heartburn to the point that by the end of my preg there were only about four food I could eat without paying dearly for the next 24 hours and my DD came out with a full, thick head of hair!

Yey!  Maybe Baby B (closer to my stomach/esophagus) will have hair and Baby A will be bald.  Then we can tell them apart!

i had heartbrun and no hairy children.

here is a wives tale that i have heard and for me it was right


if you are sexually inclined (lets use that term) in the 1 & 3 trimester its a girl... and the opposite its a boy
