so, from my entirely representative group of 6 members of my family and some friends, the people who went off tea in pregnancy all had girls.

any exceptions to this?

I went off coffee in all pregnancies (tea was OK). Had 3 boys and 1 girl.

Yes off tea, no not a girl. I thought it was "normal" to go off caffeine when pregnant regardless of gender of baby?

LOVED the smell of teabags when pg with both DSs. Carried one with me when pg with DS1 (Over that sort of nonsense when pg with DS2...)
