This is interesting. You know I never skip breakfast. And I often have a yogurt and banana smoothie in the mornings…so do you wanna change your vote? Boy or girl?
CHICAGO (AP) – Snips and snails and puppydog tails … and cereal and bananas? That could be what little boys are made of, according to surprising new research suggesting that what a woman eats before pregnancy influences the gender of her baby.
Having a hearty appetite, eating potassium-rich foods including bananas, and not skipping breakfast all seemed to raise the odds of having a boy.

Funny thing is, MY Boy doesn’t even like bananas!
Ha. very funny, Natalie! You better not skip breakfast, girlie – I'm with your MIL!
Welcome, Hannah! We love it when a reader comes out of hiding and lets us know that we brighten your day!
right, so when my MIL tells me it's important for me to eat breakfast I'm just going to tell her that Allen and I are angling for a girl.
Ok, the article finally loaded and it makes more sense to me. Still not changing my vote though, lol
I'm so bewildered by this info. I never ate breakfast with Aidan and I did with Vivi, and it was often bananas. Go figure. And also, isn't it the father who carries the xy deciding gene supposedly? That's why Henry the 8th was killing off his wives for no good reason?
Well I want to vote for a girl still. I'm not changing, lol. Besides God might decide that it's time for Trina to make teeny tiny aprons for a cute little gal. ๐
I voted boy! I have a theory that they come in pairs ๐
To Tell the Truth, I was gonna vote for a boy too….I "wishing" for a girl though!

Since I read your blog everyday, I thought it was about time to comment. I don't know about the banana thing, but if cereal is high in potassium, too, it's no wonder we're having a boy! I ate more boxes of Cheerios than I can count when I was about 2-3 months pregnant. I hope you're feeling well! -Hannah H.
Nope, I don't wanna change my vote….I already voted for a boy!!!
Man, I had better watch out I can see my three sisters and sisinlaw getting rather upset with me ๐ hehehe ๐
