Hairy Belly and Boobs?! Am I having a boy?!

Hi ladies, quick quandary... is there any correlation between having hairy boobs and belly during pregnancy (11weeks) and having a baby boy? Naturally I’ve assumed I’ve gone so hairy because of hormone increases BUT is it oestrogen or testosterone that’s to blame for the fuzz?

Thanks in advance 💕

I came to the same conclusion because I’m super furry! But I’ve had loads of scans and unless each on of them is wrong then I’m definitely having a girl! (I ask each time I go - last scan tomorrow, will probably ask them to check again, then induction on Saturday!)
This is dc4 and I don’t ever remember having this much fur with the others 🤣 luckily I’m blonde so it’s not noticeable!

Weirdly I'm having a boy and my body hair seems to be growing at a much slower rate. Only need to shave my legs once a week

I’m having a boy and also only shave my legs once a week. My belly hair is darker but I don’t have more hair

I've had two boys and never got any excess hair! In fact, my head-hair stopped growing altogether.

3 girls here and im usually v hairy
i did have little red spots appear and apparantly that's oestrogen from girls

I'm having a boy and have a super furry belly! Although weirdly my leg hair seems to have stopped growing, only shaving once a fortnight Confused

Having a boy an not hairy at all my hair everywhere grows really slow x

My body growth slowed down quite a lot when I was pregnant with ds. So no, I don't think body hair is indicative of the sex of the baby.

I’m having a boy and I’m like a furry bear!

I was very hairy for the first trimester or so when carrying DS- chin, stomach, moustache.
Then later in the pregnancy all my body hair seemed to stop growing.
I actually read that with a boy there is a surge of testosterone during the first (maybe 16?) weeks, and after that the levels drop off.

I had a really hairy belly with my daughter

Kinsters · 30/07/2019 02:16

I'm pretty hairy and I'm having a girl!

Em39ma · 30/07/2019 06:17

Very furry belly and I’m having a girl.
I also haven’t stop losing my own , not as much as usual, but still a handful a day.
I have long thick hair, my hairdresser reckon if I do stop losing all together, I wouldn’t be able to walk under the weight.😂

I'm having a girl and I have a hairy belly, but also the slow growing leg hair. I'm going to miss not having to shave as often once she arrives 😂

I had a fuzzy belly and leg hair stopped growing, and I had a girl.. seems it’s 50/50!
