Ok so I'm about 9 weeks and feeling mildly nauseous most of the time. This is really annoying for two reasons. One is the obvious that it's horrid feeling sick. The other is that I had zero sickness with DS1 or DS2 so the nausea is making me secretly hope it's a girl this time but I don't want to raise my hopes. So I thought I'd vent on here instead! :)
No, it doesn't mean that, I'm sorry. I've seen a thousand people obsess over nausea or lack thereof and there just doesn't seem to be any connection with gender. Scientifically, the only connection with nausea and baby gender is that people pg with girls have something like a 3% higher rate of hyperemesis (a very severe form of morning sickness).
I had very mild morning sickness with my DD compared to 3 of my 4 boys. One of my boys I barely had it at all. No rhyme or reason to it whatsoever.
I thought you'd say that - thank you! I'll just have to put up with it eh? :)Quote:

Nah it doesn't. I had hyperemesis gravidarum first time, no nauseas whatsoever second time and nausea and throwing up until week 16 third time. I had DD, DS, DS. =)
Weezie I have had nausea with all my PG. I find that ginger capsules (get it from a place that sells "real" herbal medicine, not the grocery store) with ginger root (not any extract) work really well for nausea. I lived on them with DS2 and it really did help a lot. With this baby eating a low carb diet has worked wonders. I have not thrown up once and have only had to take 2 ginger capsules which is another miracle for me. GL with your nausea... it will get better:)
I didn't have morning sickness with my three boys that I have this pregnancy is so far lots of morning sickness! Ewww hate it! Time will tell I suppose
i had ms progressively getting worse with all three of my pregnancies until this one and this time i barely had any, sickness was worst with ds3
No it's didn't mean it for me.
I had zero ms with DS1, and with current pregnancy I had it really bad till about 14 weeks
had some nausea w/ my g/b but only threw up 3x and that was w/ one of the boys. sorry but could be a girl either way:)
