Did you notice a difference between how you felt when preg with a girl or a boy?? like more or less sick etc...
I only have girl's and I was sooooo sick and tired for much of the pregnancies, this time it's milder - I still feel like utter rubbish but not throwing up yet where I was early with the girl's... and I don't think I'm as tired either.... anyway it could just be diff pregnancy and all but I was wondering if anyone else noticed a big diff with diff sex...

I noticed a difference with my first two, I was only mildly sick/tired etc with my daughter whereas with my son I was much sicker and tireder.
I got gigantic sore boobies early on with my daughter but not so much with my son..

This time round I was convinced I was having another girl as my symptoms were more similar to my pregnancy with my daughter but nope! Healthy wee boy bubba!

I haven't had one of each but my two pregnancy's were polar opposites of each other so thought I might be in with the chance of one of each but nope.

Mine were very similar mostly.
Morning sickness started earlier with my girl but got just as severe. I was hospitalised for rehydration with both pregnancies. I did not have kidney problems with my second but was told that was caused by position of baby.
I even craved the same things - mainly rubbish food - hamburgers, wedges, chips with mayo until the very end and then milk with henry and lettuce, tomato, carrot and cheese salad with kiara.

So next pregnancy i will still have no idea. Which i quite like as we leave it a surprise until the birth.

Mine were similar to start off with, but a few weeks shy of finding out gender, it changed... I was sick from the day I got my bfp with DS, but it held off til 6 weeks with Jae... but while it suddely stopped at 16 weeks with DS, it carried on through til I had Jae... both times I ended up in hospital because of it... so it appears girls *might* make me even sicker than boys!! (and for all those years I thought it was a 'boy' thing )

With Caden I was ssiiicckkk, I felt ill 24/7, like extreme nausea, only vomited twice, but gagged a lot, was so gross. I craved salty and savoury things with Caden.

With Isabella, I felt queazy and a few times quite sick, but no where near as bad as with Caden. I craved sweet things with her and drank choc milk like it was going out of fashion

Hmmm

Girl
-no nausea , but vomitting
-heartburn from 37 weeks
-really big aversion to certain smells, eg LJs

Boy
-constant nausea
-heartburn
-more cramps
-strong sense of smell

and so far with this one, minus the vomitting its been a mix of both

Definitely different.

The way I carried was completely different.

Girl:
Had vomiting every morning with accompanying hangover til 11am
Burger king & KFC Pot & Gravy plus egg sandwiches was my staple diet! DH made me meat & 3 vege for dinner.
Almost vomited to strong smells ie Subway!
Big butt!!
Lots of BH's

Boy:
Constant nausea 24/7 but no vomiting
Heart burn early on which came back 36-37 weeks.
Chocolate was my friend. Had to eat it every day.
From behind you couldn't tell I was pregnant.
Boobs not so massive.
Really sore pelvis, but he was breech & I think my pelvis got ruined in the first labour.
No Bh's

my first two were girls, had severe morning sickness (hyperemesis), hospital stays etc because it was so bad.

This time im having a boy and ive just had regular morning sickness and was only sick prob once a week for the first 12wks.

All of my 3 were different (boy, girl & girl)

I carried differently with each, had different symptoms with each and had heaps of sickness with 1st & 3rd and none with 2nd.

Thanks for all the replies guys! sounds like not a particularly reliable way to predict the sex... damn I may go and boil up some red cabbage then

Saaaaaaaaaaaaame. Except I drank it with both.

Ryan (boy)  I got Migraine/headaches, I was so sick, I craved chips and banana's, I got really bad dermetitus on my fingers.

With Evelyn (I didn't know she was a girl) I got mega acne towards the end. But I had no headache's which I get alot of when not UTD. I wasn't as sick. I craved choclate and sweet stuff. ANd I still thought she was a boy.
