PREDICTING OUR BABY'S GENDER **by testing old wive's tales**

Today we tested old wive's tales to try and predict the gender of our baby. Abby and I both think it's a boy, but people keep saying Matt would be a great girl dad. Do you think it's going to be a girl or a boy??

I love how Abby and Matt talked about how Abby prefers Matt to be more of a leader in their relationship in some aspects and it’s cool to see that even if they prefer a few more traditional gender roles in their own relationship - they’re still leaving it open to their kids to do what they want even if it doesn’t align with gender roles :) - this baby is gonna be so free to be themselves and so loved no matter the gender

I just had a baby girl 2 months ago and I did all these gender wives tales and it predicted our gender correct! The dream one I had all dreams I was having a boy and then read that it’s opposite! Wish you guys all the best! Love watching your videos

[@skylarsustin]

Hi everyone. First off, I absolutely love all your content Matt and Abby, you are going to be amazing parents. I wanted to remind everyone that if you feel like things are chaotic and uncertain outside of you then it's time to shift your focus to within you. The biggest gift you can give yourself during this time is to allow yourself to find what you are searching for outside of you, within. You are all so amazing and have the biggest potential for an amazing life!! You have the power to activate that now!

Excited to see how these predictions turn out! 😂 We ended up with a girl but said the same as you guys- as long as it’s happy and healthy- now our daughter is 2 and a half years old and she is LITERALLY THE SON IVE NEVER HAD! She is such a tomboy! 😂 she also loves to wear dresses and bows but all she wants to do is bike (she goes off bike ramps and everything), golf and play outside. I think this is due to how active my husband and I are, similar to you guys. We’ve taken her hiking, boating and now we’re taking her snowboarding soon. So exciting. I’m so happy for you guys! You guys are going to be the best parents and that child is going to be so loved and have such a fun childhood 🥺🥰

hi again!!! thank you for liking my comment on your last video, it meant a lot to me. whatever the gender is, i will be so happy for you both! praying that you have a wonderful pregnancy along with a. safe baby girl, or boy. :) i’m so excited for you both!!!!

[@ongtorinicole]

also, 7:18 it changed your age! you both should try it again with 22 and see if it says boy.

[@jessig8854]

I’d have to say the first “test” had some merit. When I was pregnant with my daughter I craved pancakes with syrup, hot chocolate and sweet grapes (not sour) and couldn’t stand the smell of savory things. With my son I craved spicy things, onions and horseradish on everything! Edit: forgot to add a helpful parent note. But you can register at different baby sites (pampers, similac, and such) and they will send new parents coupons for their products and sometimes samples as well. I registered with similac (formula) for my son when he was born and they sent small containers of formula in the mail. Just an idea.
