girl/boy theories??

[Emsgale]

just wondered what peoples tbeories wete on cravings symptoms etc hinti.g to a boy or girl??

my first pregnancy lots of sickness generally ate lots and craved sweet things that was a girl.

this.time no sickness less of a apetite craving savoury things very spotty????

ems xx

I have a boy and a girl!

With DS i wasn't at all sick, ate lots, craved savoury things, was very tired!

With DD i felt a lot worse although was rarely actually sick, not so tired, ate more than usual but nowhere near as much as with DS, craved healthy stuff like salad!!

I carried them both exactly the same way so i think that may be more down to body shape /position of the placenta than anything else

The heart rate one was true for me though!

In my experience, people who have had a boy and a girl attribute the differences in their pregnancies to the sex of the baby. So saying things like 'oh, you're craving sweets? Must be a girl, with Mabel I only wanted chocolate but with Fred I wanted salty crisps'
Or saying 'with girls the bump is all at the front, like mine was with Ethel, with Bruce I was big all the way around'.

I've had 2 girls and I had totally different cravings, a totally different shaped bump, different things brought on my sickness, spotty with one at the beginning, spotty with the other at the end - but they were both girls.
