Just for fun- old wives tale

[MrsP513]

So I read that having no morning sickness suggests you are having a boy.

So just for fun I thought people could say if they had morning sickness and if they are expecting or had a boy/girl.

I am only 12 weeks and have had no sickness so will have to update when I know.

Not personally my experience but my SIL has a newborn that is 4 weeks old. He is a boy and she had really bad morning sickness up until about 14 weeks so wouldn’t say that was very true xx

I had no sickness whatsoever (was barely even nauseous) and I had a boy. I always expected to have sickness as I get really bad travel sickness and stuff like that. I had an extremely good pregnancy so I'm not sure it would have mattered what gender I was carrying!! I've known people have bad sickness with boys and no sickness with girls.

Had really bad all day nausea and vomiting from around 7 weeks to around 20 weeks, still throw up a few times a week now at 32 weeks and still have food aversions, I’m having a girl x

With my boy I had really bad sickness throughout my pregnancy

With my girl I was nauseous but only sick once after a greasy meal

I was much sicker with my little boy than I have been with this pregnancy which is a girl! Xx

Love reading all the replies. I know it’s just an old wives tale but it’s still interesting to see what people have to say.

Hi Winter Wolf. I was just thinking about you. Glad to see your okay and had your baby

 

[Sugarpop]

I had no morning sickness at all and am having a boy.

Oh how sweet of you! Yes I had my baby Winter nearly 6 weeks ago now. I still update my pregnancy journal weekly so you can read my birth story and first few weeks with a newborn there if you’re wondering what I’ve been up to.

I'm having a boy and had horrible morning sickness and got a diagnosis of HG. It lasted from 5 or 6 weeks with the first slight aversion to egg. I'm 22 weeks now and while it got much better after 16 weeks I still occasionally throw up or retch at certain smells or when I brush my teeth. I also know what just isn't worth trying to eat or drink.

I had horrific sickness, when we were on our honeymoon in Greece (I was 11 weeks) our cab driver told us I was having a boy as his wife had 4 children and was only sick like I was with the boy. He was right!

 

[BabyMaker]

My morning sickness was worse with my daughter than my son. Sickness hasnt been too bad this time and im predicting a boy

 

[Bubbles1987]

Three girls. Nausea with my two girls, this pregnancy had none at all so thought that might mean boy but it’s anotjer girl my friend at work was vomiting every day at least every of her pregnancy and she had a boy. Xx

1st baby - light morning sickness for the first few weeks after BFP. Disappeared before 12weeks. Had a boy.

2nd baby - horrific sickness. Couldn't keep anything down for long, lost weight in first 12wks. Disappeared by 26wks, came back at 32wks! Had a boy.

3rd baby - sparodic sickness from about 11wks. Usually sick once every day/every other day. Sickness disappeared at 18wks. I'm now 26wks pregnant and have been sick the last couple of days. I think triggered by too much milk in my coffee, and scoffing too much party food lol. This baby is a girl.

So just to update. I am having a boy so for me the old wives tale was correct.

 

[BabyMaker]

Congrats! I’m having a boy too so correct for me too
