Baby gender

I’d like to hear from those who have had both a boy and girl. Obviously I know everyone is different but I’m just curious to see who has had both sexes and have had similar symptoms. I’m 10 weeks pregnant with my 3rd, already have two girls and this pregnancy so far is exactly the same as the last two except I’ve had just a tiny bit more nausea this time round and I’m as big as I was at 20 weeks with my first. Obviously we would like a boy but I’m happy as long as the baby is healthy. My partner doesn’t want to find out the sex (he is the one that desperately wants a boy) but I’m on the fence and I kind of want to find out. So I’m just comparing the pregnancies and wanting to know if people had completely different pregnancies with different sexes. Thanks :)

I had a boy and girl and fell pregnant with my third. I didn't find out what the gender of my third was. Didn't need to anyway, was the exact same as my pregnancy with my son. Until i delivered and my husband said it was a girl and made him double check because I didn't have a name worked out for a girl 😂😂😂

First pregnancy I had a girl. Second a boy. Third pregnancy was exactly the same as my first - I was so convinced it was another girl that when a boy came out it took me a while to wrap my head around it. I’ve just had my fourth and it was another boy and that pregnancy was totally different to my other 3

I had 5 boys and 3 girls and no two pregnancies were ever the same. Its an old wives tale myth that being pregnant with a boy carries or feels one way, while being pregnant with a girl carries or feels another. It's simply not true. It is zilch indication for what the sex of your baby will be. I'm surprised people still believe that there are different pregnancy signs for having a boy versus girl.

I’ve had both!

My first (a boy): extreme nausea, craved savoury salty foods. Belly grew very quickly. Had cholestasis.

My second (a girl): had the runs daily but no other symptoms, craved sugar and fruits. Belly grew very slowly. Had PE, high blood pressure and extremely high heart rate during the pregnancy.

Both were exactly the same height and birthweight when born, but both extremely different pregnancies.

7 kiddies. 5 boys 2 girls. I was a wee bit sick with my first (being a girl). But nothing for the rest of them. Looked the same, felt the same and probably even complained the same 😂

I did find though I always found a name I loved for the gender of which I was carrying but always struggled with a name of the opposite gender.

So my girls I knew I’d give them their names but never settled for a boys name and vice versa. In fact 3 of my boys I couldn’t find a single girls name I even kinda liked so was a good thing they were boys 😂 🤦🏻‍♀️

I had a boy and girl. Similar pregnancies but I was a bit sicker with my girl and my hips widened and I carried her in my back and my belly sat higher then my son.

I has more nausea and threw up a few times with my second (girl). She sat lower, had a more round shape belly, terrible sciatica.
First pregnancy (boy) I has a bit of nausea no vomiting, my belly was a B shape and he was higher up, had sciatica but not as bad.

With both pregnancies I craved salt n vinegar chips, cheese and granny smith apples, I had Gestational Diabetes and put on the same amount of weight
