17 weeks along now, and getting a little too curious about what gender this little being is. I’m no good at surprises, so waiting until the baby is born to reveal its gender was never really going to be an option for us. There’s been a few theories from those around me as to what gender this bub will be, and I do sense its gender too, but the proof will be in the pudding soon enough! Taking the test is easy, just tick those that apply to your own pregnancy and presto… you have your “theoretical gender” according to some people that apparently know their stuff.
