Something fun to test the Old Wives Tale:

Faster hair growth says boy and slower growth says girl.

The hair in my legs in growing very slowly.

Normally I have to say everyday to every other day. I just went a week!

    For both of my pregnancies, the hair on my head and body has grown incredibly fast and thick. Both were girls. I'm really lucky to be a blonde otherwise I would have to shave a whole lot more than I have been.

    Too funny. Both of yours blow that theory right out of the water. I think looking at the OWT are fun but clearly just for fun.

    I'd never heard this before, but, for both this pregnancy and my last my hair grew really fast. Too fast. Both are boys. :)
