I craved fruit anything fruity, ice pops, and sugar basically with first was a girl. With 2nd, crisps and savoury it was a boy. Tjis time started of savoury but have recently gone to fruit and sweet and it's a girl. So I think for me it is just what my body needs at the time.

I have been craving cake and any other type of simple sugar - fruit, kid's cereals, chocolate. I never had much of a sweet tooth before I became pregnant. But contrary to the traditional old wives' tale, I am in fact expecting a boy.

I had savoury cravings with both pregnancies and had 2DDs

Though I don't really have a sweet tooth anyway.

I craved jelly sweets in early pregnancy, the more sugary the better, and am expecting a girl. My first pregnancy was also a girl and no cravings at all.

I craved Scotch eggs and pork pies last time round - was a boy. This time round has been raw carrots, crunchy apples and celery - don't know what having yet. I think girl based on cravings. Am also carrying more all round. Was more out front with DS.
