I have read the actual studies done on nauseousness during pregnancy and the FACT is that there is a slightly higher rate of hyperemesis gravidium (the very severe form of morning sickness) for women carrying a girl. That's IT. (and when I say slightly, it's like 3% or some teensy amount like that.) The studies found no increased incidence of morning sickness or nausea in girl pregnancies, it was only that tiny difference in rates of hyperemesis.

you can't tell the difference in gender at 11+4 because the Y chromosome has only just started to kick in to make the testosterone that causes the genitalia to differentiate. At this stage of gestation, girl bits and boy bits are identical - it's only once the testosterone starts flowing that the penis starts to form. i don't even think at 12 weeks it's reliable, I strongly urge waiting till 13 weeks plus to have a scan.

What I was wondering with regards to hyperemesis (have had it with all 3 of my pregnancies) if it could be caused by poor lifestyle? Vitamin deficiencies for example (b vits, magnesium etc) and since women with less healthy lifestyle tend to have more girls, could that be the reason for more nausea? I don't think it has to do with gender at all, but is def linked to what we eat.

I hope you all hear what you want to hear!

Hyperemesis is believed to be caused by hCG and a sensitivity to that. Some girl pregnancies make more hCG than the average boy pregnancy (this is totally unreliable as a method of gender determination BTW) and so in people who are sensitive to hCG levels, a girl pg may provide more of the hCG that they are sensitive to.

I do not believe it to be related to lack of nutrients, otherwise people would ahve had it all the time in the olden days and not much now.

I never suffered sickness with my first two (boys) but I have this time could this be a sign of girl or just me hopping so x

Sorry, but no, it's not a sign. I was exactly the same no sickness at all with either ds & this time round with ds3 I had bad nausea until 14 weeks. I got my hopes up but it meant nothing :(
