Is it true you get more sick when you are pregnant with a boy?

Your sickness is actually determined by the amount of hormones in your body from the pregnancy is what I was always told.

3 girls… super sick with 2

I was sick my entire pregnancy with my son. The third trimester was the WORST

Never had morning sickness with my son.

I had 2 girls sick as a dog with one and not all with the other

God Nooooo

I was my sickest with my little girl and developed high blood pressure and diabetes

I wasn’t sick at all with my first two babies- boys. Third baby I was sick from day 1- 16 weeks and its a girl.

I got morning sickness starting at 5 weeks. It was a girl. I was never sick with my boy.

I got morning sickness for the whole pregnancy for my girl, not my boy.

I was sick my entire pregnancy with my daughter

Every pregnancy is different and doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the opposite sex. Mine were different and I have 2 girls. I know a girl who has 4 boys and she said every one was so different . Just gonna have to wait for that 20 week u.s.

My daughter I couldn’t keep anything down…both my boys I didn’t have any problems

Not for me. I had my first 3 boys and all gave me terrible morning sickness, then my daughter & last son…absolutely no sickness with either of them.

I’ve always heard the opposite. You get sick when having a girl because the extra estrogen or whatever :woman_shrugging:t3: I’ve had 3 boys an never had morning sickness.

I know alot of women who didnt get sick at all with a boy. I think it just depends on women and the child.

I’ve had 3 boys and 1 girl. My first boy, no morning sickness at all. My second (girl) I was sensitive to smells that made me nauseous, my third (boy) I was so sick, (worked in food industry) puked multiple times a day during prep of raw meat. Fourth (boy) was extremely nauseous but only puked with raw meat. Each pregnancy is so different, and morning sickness is normal. My intuition always told me what I was having. 🤷 Best of luck to you and your gift of life :heart:

I was Sooo sick with my daughter I lost 80+lbs with her… My son I only lost 20

I had 3 girls & then a boy. My first 2 I had absolutely zero morning sickness, my 3rd girl I was soooo sick my entire pregnancy. My 4th, a boy… I was sick til about 16 weeks, it wasn’t nearly as bad as it was with my 3rd though.

Nope, not true at all. This pregnancy has been the most sickening of all and shes a girl. Its how your body reacts to the pregnancy it has nothing to do with gender.

I had one boy. Never sick a day. I then had a girl. I was sick from conception to the delivery room. Hospitalized twice during pregnancy.

My 1st and 2nd were the same everything high BP not sickness and 1st was boy and 2nd was girl

Not true.
My first I had a boy, was A L W A Y S sick. Any sickness… food sick, cold sick, nauseous you name it.
I’m expecting second baby and it’s a boy N O sickness what’s so ever that I even thought I would have different gender. I don’t even feel like I’m pregnant ( other than having a prego belly)and since it’s so different compare to my first. I’m 33 weeks with a boy as of now.

I had no morning sickness with my son.

Nope. More sick with my girl.

I had a boy and had absolutely no morning sickness! Felt great the entire time :grimacing:

No morning sickness with my son

I just found out I’m having a boy and I had zero morning sickness. My first born was a girl and I DID have morning sickness with her.

Equally sick with both though a friend of mine was really sick with her girls and not sick at all with her boys.

Opposite. I was sick the whole pregnancy with my baby girl. 3-5 days a week, literally, till the day I had her. All day puking my guts out no joke. I was fn miserable :joy:

I never got sick when I was pregnant with my son

I didnt get sick not once with my son. Im 20 weeks with my girl and i have been sick every day all day from week4-week17. It was absolutely awful I dropped 15lbs

I have 2 girls and one boy, my second girl was my most difficult pregnancy, everything made me sick the smell of cooking food, dirty dishes, soap everything. With my son I had bad nausea but if I ate on the way to the bathroom first thing in the morning, either a few crackers or a banana I was fine. With my younger daughter she has a genetic disorder called William’s Syndrome, and I often wondered if the extra sickness was because she was not quite normal and healthy.

I have two boys, I was great with one and very sick with the other.

I did but that could just be me

I was never sick with my boy except raging heartburn

I had horrific sickness for half of my pregnancy with my boy, but looked amazing and felt amazing for the last 20 weeks. I’m currently 25 weeks pregnant with a girl and have had no sickness at all but don’t look or feel great! Go figure :joy: each pregnancy is a totally different experience for everyone so you can’t determine it of off other peoples

I only puked 2 times with my son. I puked every day but the middle 6ish weeks with my daughter

My little one is a boy. Barely felt nauseous, only threw up once, felt great up til week 32 and he came a little early at almost 38.

With my daughter I was sick from conception until the day she was born, my son I was not sick one day. It depends on the mother and hormones

I have 2 girls and 2 boys and never got sick with any of my kids.

Not for me lol I was only sick with my daughter

I was sick throughout my whole pregnancy all day and night and yep it was a boy

I had 2 girls and morning sickness was horrible with both.

Pregnant wit my sec son,an I never got sick, sometimes it’s hard to believe I’m pregnant coz I feel normal… I think it depends on ur body

No I like was like this with my daughter had morning sickness all day every day for the whole 9months, iv heard sickness for a girl anyway even the midwifes told me lol

I didn’t get sick my first pregnancy.

Got sick my 2nd, but it was tolerable

3rd I got horribly (hospital trip level) sick all pregnancy

4th I got horribly sick but only for 4 months.

They’re all girls. Every pregnancy is different

I have a son and pregnant with my second son, I think each pregnancy is just different. My first son I had morning sickness this pregnancy I have nothing.

3 girls i threw up everything. My son, ate healthy, craved fruit and vegetables. And had less swelling. I only knew I was pregnant because of a missed period.

Mine was a boy and I was only sick about 3 times throughout :rofl: and I think it was down to nerves at scans and that x

No every pregnancy is different… You can experience totally different symptoms with the same gender

I have a girl and currently prego with my 2nd boy. Sick? If you mean morning sickness, at your stage that’s common it be boy or girl but some woman lucky and don’t get it at all. Every pregnancy is different and I don’t really think gender has anything to do with it. I have cholestasis with every pregnancy, I would trade it any day for just morning sickness :weary:. One thing for sure though, I do get horrible heartburn, got it with my 1st son too; but that’ll start once he starts getting really big. My daughter was barely 5lbs when she was born so didn’t get any heartburn with her, she was a premie.

More sick with my girls xx

In my experience: (first pregnancy) boy - occasional nausea, 2x severe for about 2 hours; (second pregnancy) girl - all day nausea, severe without medication

I was more sick with a girl.

I have three boys and two girls and I only got sick with one and that was my fourth baby. My first girl

Everyone is different

Had a boy and girl and puked equally through the whole of both pregnancies

I only have one boy but didn’t have any sickness felt nauseous a few times in the evening but that was it felt lush the rest of the time xx

Had 2 boys first no sickness second had horrible sickness

I didnt have any morning sickness with my boy. I dont think it has anything to do with what you’re having

I’ve had the following:
Boy - Some early morning sickness
Girl - no sickness
Girl - Horrendous sickness
Girl - Moderate sickness

I think they’re all old wives tales to be honest x

I used to think that being very sick means your having a girl.
1st (boy) - no sickness
2nd (girl) - sick for the first 4 months
3rd (boy) - sick the whole damn 9+ months

I really think the more babies you have, the more sick you will be. Not sure…:rofl:

Only really sick with my middle child but it’s a boy. Did have word symptoms with my girl though

First son sick as all heck second son no sickness daughter was the worst sickness so no doesn’t matter what U are having

That’s not true. My first kid was a girl. I remember being very sick with her right from the start.

I have two boys and i was so sick i ended up in the hospital for iv fluids multiple times and with my second boy they kept me in the hospital for like 3 days I had every type of nausea medication you can possibly think of

When I was pregnant with my daughter, I got sick as a DOG. Puked every moment of the day, including while driving lol.

Depends on your pregnancy. My boys i couldn’t stop vomiting and with my girls I didn’t know i was pregnant till I had trouble breathing

I was sick my entire pregnancy and so much so I actually lost weight on my first trimester and had to go to hospital for iv twice, I had a beautiful little girl though! But so so so sick :nauseated_face:

My girls was my worst 2 pregnancy. 1st daughter heartburn sick they whole entire pregnancy 2nd sick a lot & hurt sooooo bad. Boy boys I was sick & heartburn off & on…but both the girls was rough.

Everyone is different cause both my girls made me throw up the whole 9 months as soon as that egg got fertilized lmao I swear!!! This time with my son I didn’t even know I was pregnant and I threw up around 13 weeks only for a couple weeks and I’ve been good since so I’m grateful cause with my girls it was the whole 9 months :sweat::woman_facepalming:

I had two boys…and a single hint of sickness with my first…but my second I was so unbelievably sick for over half the pregnancy…every pregnancy is different

My entire pregnancy with my last one I was sick everyday, all day … and I was having a boy. Ugh I don’t miss that at all.

Im 5 months pregnant with my 4th child 2nd boy amd its been easeir for me honestly no morning sickness. Only 3 times through this out thing…amd its been an amazing expirence

I had horrible morning sickness with both my boys but I dont know if it has anything to do with gender…
If your anxious to know what the gender is I do suggest the sneak peak test!
As far as more sickness, ginger and try to have a few saltine crackers before getting out of bed. I found having smaller meals/snacks throughout the day was much easier

I’m curious too because with my 1st my daughter I had zero morning sickness and was rarely tired and I’m 11 weeks and have had morning sickness since week 6 and can’t seem to have energy to even take a shower or go out and walk like I used to

Never sick with my boys -I had morning sickness from day1 until I went into labor with my daughter ’ :heart: -

I had lot of morning sickness with my boys my girl I didn’t really have morning sickness

I had morning sickness throughout my pregnancy with my son, some things like meat and air fresheners were the worst smells to come across.

3 boys… sick as a dog… 1 girl no sickness at all… lol… each one is different for everyone.

4 boys never had sickness… 1 girl and good lord couldn’t ever get more then 15 ft from the white throne…

Mine was opposite…I had mild to none with my boys and always with my all my girls…guess it just depends…each pregnancy may be different.

First boy I had zero sickness. Second boy I was terribly sick for half of my pregnancy

I had morning sick through out my whole pregnancies with All 3 Of my Boys.

Everyone is different I was sick with my son from 9 weeks to 16 weeks 3 to 5 times a day

So sick with a girl…worst heartburn and nausea. Could hardly eat the entire pregnancy. With my boy some morning sickness only.

My sons pregnancy was way easier than both of my girls. Only got sick twice and no morning sickness. My girls, was sick from about 4 weeks on through the whole pregnancy

No. I had horrible morning sickness with my first(girl). Never got sick with my second( boy)

I wS sick with my oldest daughter the whole 9 months and with my second daughter the first 5 months and with my son only if i didnt eat early in the am and now barley ever.

Seems like as individuals one gender or the other makes us sick. I had 2 boys never sick for a minute with either

I never was sick with my 5 year old son…I’m 21 weeks with a boy now and havent sick either

I was far sicker with my daughter than either of my boys :woman_shrugging:

No u get more sick with a girl due to the excess estrogen in ur system… according to my midwife.

I was sicker with my daughter, super easy pregnancy with my son

Everybody is different. I had to two boys and no morning sickness at all.

I got sicker with my girl!! My first 2 boys were a breeze!!

I have 2 boys i never got morning sickness

No. Baby’s sex has nothing to do with that.

It’s different for everyone and every pregnancy.

I never got sick with either of my girls or my boy
