Can You Predict the Baby’s Gender?

Once the pregnancy test shows you are pregnant there are so many things that will run through your mind. Not only will you be excited and possibly stare at the stick in disbelief, but you will be overwhelmed with the fact that you have finally conceived. Once the excitement of conception begins to wear off a bit and you truly feel like you are pregnant for the following nine months you may begin to think about the baby’s gender. Some moms don’t care what they have as long as it’s a healthy baby, but it’s hard not to dream about that baby girl or baby boy that may be growing inside you. Because of this, many moms wonder about predicting their baby’s gender once they are pregnant. There is no study that has been conducted that proves certain symptoms during pregnancy mean you will have a specific gender, but many women believe otherwise. Of course, when you are closer to 20 weeks an ultrasound can clue you in on what you are having, but until then you will have to use the following symptoms to guess what you are having!

Cravings

One sign that you might be having a little girl is if you are craving chocolate. On the other hand, if you have cravings for things like lemons or other sour things you may be having a little boy. If you are craving both sweet and sour, like many women, this may be more difficult to determine what the sex of the baby is.

Acne

Acne is considered to be a pregnancy symptom, too. However, it is quite subjective because it is said that if you have mild acne then you are expecting a little boy but if you have severe acne then it’s more probable that you are expecting a little girl. This is definitely a confusing symptom!

Morning Sickness

Many women experience morning sickness and this symptom supposedly will help you determine what sex you will be having. For example, you will have a baby girl if you are sick at night but a boy if you are sick in the morning. However, if you are extremely sick it’s a boy and little to no morning sickness means you will have a girl!

Hair

Body hair growth during pregnancy could mean you are pregnant with a boy while you won’t grow any body hair if you are pregnant with a girl, or so says the prediction!
