I totally missed this thread the first time, filling out now!
EDD: 2/25 Predicted date: 2/18 Predicted weight: 7 lbs 11 oz Length: 21" Hair: Dark brown, barely covers head Sex: we are team green so I'm gonna predict girl!
I told H yesterday that I wouldn't be super surprised if this kid came early. I thought before she'd come late, but now I'm feeling like she's going to be here a bit before her due date. Don't know why I feel that way, just do. So we'll see.

Two MM/C 1/09/12 & MM/C 4/26/12 BFP#3 - Rainbow #1 born 5/11/13 via unplanned C-section Two CP 11/23/15 & 5/13/16 BFP#6 - Rainbow #2 born 2/10/17 via planned C-section
Predicted Birth Date: 2/23 - I just have a feeling I'll be left hanging for a bit.
Predicted Weight: 7lbs
Predicted Length: 21 inches
Predicted Hair Color/Amount: definitely black, and probably lots of it.
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): Well according to the panorama test we're having a girl, but that wasn't actually confirmed on any ultrasounds, she was keeping her legs firmly together. So I suppose we could be in for a very big surprise.
Can I just say how incredibly wrong my predictions were...I was off by over a month on the birth date, almost a pound on birth weight, and 2 inches on length. At least I was right about the full head of black hair!

Mmyeah. I also guessed tomorrow in the spirit of hoping for one early baby. I'd bet money that's not happening and I also think this baby will be larger than I guessed since I'm already measuring 2 weeks ahead and baby is still up too high. Probably closer to my 10 pounder and closer to my due date if not yet another late kid.

I think my prediction is out the window due to my blood pressure. I guessed I would be induced between 41-42 weeks. Now it looks like I'll probably be induced sometime in the next week or two (37-38 weeks). Never in a 100 years would I have predicted this result.
Predicted Birth Date: 2/12 (DS came on his due date, I'm working that morning so LO will at least need to wait for real labor until noon)
Predicted Weight: 7lbs 6oz
Predicted Length: 20.5 inches
Predicted Hair Color/Amount: that's a real crap shoot H and I both have brown hair, mine is dark. But we each have a parent with red hair. And DS is super light blonde. So I'm guessing red or dark brown for this baby.
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): boy per the ultrasound that H made the tech triple check.
DS2 was 11 days early born on 2/1 5lbs 15oz 19 inches Dark hair! Got that one half right And a boy but that one wasn't a guess....
Predicted date: Feb 2 (only because DS was due the 19th of July and born the 2nd) WRONG 2/9 Predicted weight: 6 lbs 8 oz WRONG 7 lbs 6 oz Predicted height: 19 inches WRONG 21 inches Hair: dark brown WRONG blonde/light brown Sex: boy (we already know) CORRECT!!!!!!
I'm hoping I can grow this LO at least a little bigger than my peanut DS
Lol. So the only thing I got right was the part that we paid scientists $$$ for genetic testing for. I did grow this baby to be 2 lbs bigger than my last one though!
Predicted birth date: 2/5 on super bowl Sunday because that would be DHs luck. Also perhaps during a blizzard because why not?? I went 3 days late with DD1, so I feel like 2 days early would be nice!
Predicted weight: 8 lbs even. DD1 was 7-12
Predicted length: 20
Predicted hair color/ amount: moderate amount, dark brown
Predicted sex: girl (according to US)
I was wrong on the date and length. But weight was dead on! Woo hoo
Predicted Birth Date: 2-14 WRONG 2-9 Predicted Weight: 8 lbs. 7 oz. WRONG 9 lbs. 2 oz. Predicted Length: 20" WRONG 22" Predicted Hair Color/Amount: Moderate amount of probably brown hair. WRONG some blonde hair. Predicted Sex: We've been planning on girl based on A/S. RIGHT! Just for fun I predict her eyes will eventually be light blue like DH's We'll still have to wait and see on this one.
Just goes to show most predictions are a big crap shoot 😂

Two MM/C 1/09/12 & MM/C 4/26/12 BFP#3 - Rainbow #1 born 5/11/13 via unplanned C-section Two CP 11/23/15 & 5/13/16 BFP#6 - Rainbow #2 born 2/10/17 via planned C-section
Predicted Birth Date: Whenever my doctor is on call between 2/3 and 2/17 (scheduled induction)
Predicted Weight: 6lb3oz (girl), 6lb8oz (boy)
Predicted Length: 19.5 inches both
Predicted Hair Color/Amount: brown, moderate
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): girl on bottom, boy on top (per u/s)
Weight guess was dead on for girl, two ounces high for boy. Length guess was 0.25" high for girl and 0.5" low for boy. Hair is very dark brown on both; I have no idea how to measure a "moderate" amount of hair.
I was thinking along these lines today. My Nov BMB had a few September babies. It's crazy to think that there could be birth announcements starting next month. Obviously not ideal, but possible and crazy.
EDD: Feb 15th
Predicted Birth Date: Feb 5th. For no reason other than I'm hoping for one late baby, one on time baby, and this one to be the early baby.
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): Team green but my guess is boy. Although I've guessed boy twice now and been wrong both other times.
So wrong on everything except him being a boy. 11 days off, 1lb and 12oz off, 4 inches off, and hair is darker than I thought and more of it than his sisters had.
Predicted Date: 2/15- A was born @ 37 1/2 weeks and G was born @ 41 weeks, so it's really a toss up. Since her original due date was the 15th, I'll go with that.
Edit: Born 2/14
Predicted Weight: 7 lbs 9 oz.
Edit: Weighed 7lbs 3oz
Predicted Length: 20.5"
Edit: 20.5"!! Spot on!
Hair Color/ Amount: minimal light brown or dark blond.
Fun! I feel like I am terrible at guessing things though.
EDD: 2/23
Predicted Birth Date: 2/17 because a Friday birth would be nice
Predicted Weight: 9 lb. 3 oz. - I am being optimistic here. DD was 9lb. 12 oz. & this one is measuring 93rd percentile so we'll see.
Predicted Length: 21 inches
Predicted Hair Color/Amount: lots of dark brown hair like DD
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): Hmm. I literally do not have strong feelings either way. I am going to say girl because this pregnancy doesn't feel very different from DD's & also everyone is saying boy so I'll root for the underdog.
I did pretty good! Right day, right length, 2 oz. off and he has a decent amount of hair but not quite as much as dd.
Predicted Birth Date: 02.07, right exactly at 37 weeks. (FX to get that far! If born at the same gestation as my first, they would be born late January.)
Predicted Weight: 7 lbs, 0 oz
Predicted Length: 20 in
Predicted Hair Color/Amount: I am hoping for lots of thick black hair like my firstborn I just love hairy babies and I hope this one is hairy too lol.
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): I am going to predict a boy, just because everyone keeps telling me that they think I'm having a girl.
Everyone look at how wrong I was lol
Actual birth date: 02/25 Actual weight: 7lb, 7oz Actual length: 20 inches ( I actually guessed this right lol) Actual hair situation: Hairy AF! Actual sex: a GIRL!
Predicted Birth Date: 1/24/17 - Cheating here because that's my scheduled c-section date.
Predicted Weight: 6 lbs 10 oz
Predicted Length: 20"
Predicted Hair Color/Amount: Blonde, very little
Predicted Sex (especially if you are team green): Girl (H thinks he saw boy parts so who knows. I felt "boy" way more strongly with DS. This one I really go back and forth)
I was off except for the hair, and only partly on that. 1/13/17, 4 lbs 11 oz, 17", blonde but a bunch of it, and boy. He was almost the predicted measurements by his due date (6 lbs 6 oz, 19.5"). I will say I thought *maybe* boy, especially toward the end, but I knew so many people having the opposite sex the 2nd time around that I was sure my feelings of boy were wrong.
Predicted Birth Date:2/12 my midwife says that if you have the same couple and a healthy pregnancy you do tend to go at the same time as a previous birth, maybe a day sooner. So I had last baby 6 days early...here's hoping for 7!
Predicted Weight:7 lbs 5 oz Dd was almost 7 even, maybe I can make this one chunkier
