I know it's stupid but when I told my midwife I was feeling nauseous she replied "oh another girl then? You felt sick with the others too didn't you?" I told her it stopped at 13 weeks with the rest but I still have it at 17 weeks and she just said "oh"
I know symptoms mean crap all but she just made me feel a bit down.
Has anyone had similar pregnancies with opposite genders?

I had some nausea here and there when I was pregnant with my girls. When I was pregnant with my son I felt nauseous all the time! I found that eating frequently helped lol

I had very mild nausea with ds1&2, but with ds3 it was awful & lasted until 15 weeks. It really doesn't correlate with gender. Hope you get your DG :)

I had terrible nausea till 16 weeks with my DS1 and then nausea and sick every morning till 17 weeks with my DS2 so it doesn't just happen with girls. Hope this is your boy! I will take all your pink dust off you tho ;)

She's totally wrong. I don't know why they say things like this at all.
My pg with DS 2 and DD were similar, I was the least nauseous with them. With DS 1,3,4 I was sick constantly. None of my pg have been identical though, they have all been different.

Even my gp commented that they think opposite symptoms mean opposite gender. I don't understand why they have to comment at all.

In order of most-sick pregnancy to least:
1. This pregnancy (probable boy)
2. My DS1
3. My DD
4. My DS2
This pregnancy most closely resembles BOTH my DS1 and DD pregnancies. It has it's different aspects too, as they all did. But my "most" different pregnancy so far was DS2....so clearly he is not the "opposite" gender of anything. I think it's silly and stupid to rely on symptoms as an accurate prediction of gender. Sure. It's fun to guess off of them. But as a medical professional, they need to be careful how they say stuff like that. It's just not science. Don't let it get you down.

Me either. I think it's unprofessional even if it was totally true, which it is not and has been debunked in studies.

Nausea depends upon the sugar levels the more hungry u r more likely to feel nauseous nothing to do with gender just eat frequent small meals :)

What I know is that each pregnancy is different. Just think positive! ❤️
