Being hungry and baby gender

[6bluewant1pink]

I was so hungry with all 6 of my boys. Wasn't so much when i got my my BFP with this pregnancy but am now at almost 8wks. Now i am so hungry. I hope this isn't a sign its a boy.Does being hungry mean boy?

I don't know if it means anything :s I'm guessing not but I did read that boys need more calories... I was starving with my boys would eat non stop... With my current preg I barley eat I have no appetite and had horrible morning sickness that I never had with the boys... I will know in 5 more sleeps!

I wasn't too hungry with my 1st two boys, just a normal appetite, with DS3 I couldn't get enough food! I ate all day long. With this pregnancy I don't really like to eat much unless it is candy, fruit, or smoothies. I don't know the sex of this baby yet! 72 more hours and I might know the gender!

I'm not very hungry with this pregnancy. Have 2 boys already don't know what this one is! I've gone off food. Don't fancy anything, even though my stomach is rumbling! Supper time is a nightmare, having to cook for 2 boys and hubby but don't know what to make. Gone off meat, I'm eating really plain stuff it's like being on a diet!! I haven't been sick but I've felt sick quite a bit. Went for a spin only for an hour Monday bank holiday and felt travel sick, as soon as I got home I had to got to bed! The joys of pregnancy hey!!

I thought so because it was the 1 major difference between my 4 girls and 1st boy(i had to eat every couple of hours with him or id feel shaky and weird) but now im preg with another boy and quite normal hunger

Thanks Ladies i am getting sad now this might be a major boy sign

Don't be sad over being hungry!! Noooooo!

I am super-duper hungry ALL THE TIME and have gained 13 POUNDS so far and I'm only 12 weeks pg

Yes there are studies that say male pregnancies mom eates more, but those are flawed because they didn't take into account other things like how mom ate before pg so lets throw those out the window.

Now, I have my nub shot tomorrow so I am probably THE WORST person to try and offer any hope for a girly nub as I have conceived 5 boys so far but if it is remotely girly I will let you know and you won't have to worry that being hungry means anything because seriously....I have ate more the last 12 weeks than I have the last 12 months and that is no joke!!

Ooo can't wait to see ur nub tomorrow!

No difference with me- hungry with all 3 (I have 2 sons and this one is a girl). In fact after doing le for 4 months I want all the things now that I couldn't eat then.

I dont know if you can rely on this theory... but i did notice a huge increase in hunger with DS and not so much with DD. However i was on the HE diet for a year before we conceived DS so my metabolism was higher anyway.
