Swollen feet/ankles and baby's gender
I've found on-line that if you have swollen feet and/or ankles, you're probably carrying a boy.
Or it your right foot is more swollen, it's a boy.
In my 2 previous pregnancies I had no swelling, this time my right foot and ankle are swollen and painful. I elevate my right leg and do everything my dr recommended but it doesn't get much better.
Please share your experiences!
Important: I don't need lecturing about swelling being a pregnancy symptom regardless of gender blah, blah...m/c 2001

2007
2012 failed sway
2014 my surprise baby

Boy!!!!!! With DS1 my feet and ankles were balloons! DH joked about my "cankles" frequently and took pics of them at the hospital. I did end up having high blood pressure, but not true preeclampsia.

interesting post.. def had some swelling with both boys..now nothing so far.
I also found that when preg with the boys I ate constantly!!! I was so hungry all the time. I am not with this preg and have not gained nearly as much weight at this point as I did with the boys....I wonder if there is any link to that.
They say you eat more if you are carrying a boy...any thought?Our long awaited is here!!!!!

I was thinking about swelling this morning! The lady on television had very swollen ankles--she was pregnant with twins (boy and girl). I've been lucky to never have swelling at all.

TTC my last one. A little girl, please!
