Same cravings for girl and boy???

[FruitLoopzz]

Has anyone ever had the same cravings for both girl and boy pregnancies x

oooh i'm interested in this too ...

Well I didn't. DD I wanted fresh fruit salad and I started to eat butter having hated it all my life. DS I wanted spicy stuff and pickled onions. I avoid pickled onions now after having eaten a whole large jar in one sitting

@oopsydaisyyy - ha ha what’s your situation? I have two girls and having the same cravings basically anything sweet and chocolatey, also sour cream crisps and wondering if it means another girl x

I've got 2 boys, 1 girl and pregnant with a girl now. Not one pattern with any of them. Salt and sweet with both girl and boys, nothing crazy.

@Okki - everywhere I’ve read basically says sweet for girl and spicy for boy x

Oh I read your post wrong, so yeah same craving with both girl and boys. Baby brain has kicked in big time .

@PutOnAHappyFace - interesting x

@FruitLoopzz

I have 2 girls- both craved spicy foods
now 13 weeks and cravings are sweet and chocolate! Wondering if its a boy this time x

Yes.

Ice - plain ice, no flavoured lollies or anything just cubes. All the cubes and Rennie's peppermint tablets

I have two boys. First boy I wanted salt, Chinese takeaway, salt, crisps, salt. Lol. Second boy I ate ALL the chocolate and more. Now he’s here, he loves chocolate too

@oopsydaisyyy - that’s so interesting, are u planning on finding out or keeping it a surprise x

I have a boy and girl btw.

@Cinderellashoes - I’m also loving chocolate and demolishing cinema size pouches x

Pregnant with DD I could not get enough of tinned pears. I had awful morning (all-day and night) sickness so midwife thought the tinned pears carving was about getting the quick sugar and carb hit in an easily digestible form.
With DS I was all about broccoli. This time the theory was that my iron was low (it wa borderline throughout) and broccoli was an easily digestible form that had both vitamin c and iron. No morning sickness though which was a bonus!!
All I know is that broccoli these days gives me the heaves because I ate so much of it.

I had completely different cravings with my two girl pregnancies and even more different with my now boy pregnancy. First girl all I wanted was meat, tomatoes and oranges (maybe was lacking iron and vitamin c). Second girl I wanted citrus/sour stuff but overall less intensive cravings. With boy now I’ve had minimal cravings and a lot of aversions, have gone off all protein, no meat, chicken or fish, no eggs, no legumes. I occasionally crave something sweet but when I eat it doesn’t hit the spot. So for me all have been very different.

First pregnancy was a girl and it was sweet things. Second twin pregnancy boy and girl and it was sour things!

Boy then girl, identical pregnancies, births and cravings.

DD was chocolate and spicy curry, DS was celery. It’s no surprise that on the last day of my pregnancy with DS I weighed a stone less than on the last day of DDs.

Interesting responses. I had read about cravings being associated with minerals and vitamins we lack rather than sex of baby x

@FruitLoopzz
yes i am going to- i cant wait
how far along are you x

Yes, I just wanted anything sugary with both of mine. DS was a summer baby so I gorged myself on ice lolly's or fruit while DD was winter so it was hot chocolate or cake. But with both I just wanted sugar.

Now pregnant with a third and haven't had any cravings at all. Although yesterday I fancied salad which I've never wanted before in my life. So we'll see what this one is like.

I have girls and am now having a boy and in both my previous and current pregnancy my only craving has been cherry tomatoes and raw carrots!

@oopsydaisyyy - 14 weeks 🤞
