Cravings and Gender prediction?

Everflux

So I've been having a-lot of weird cravings lately. Not the typical ice-cream and pickles craving either. This week I've been craving cucumber's, and chicken strips. I don't really want that many sweet things either, and when i do eat sweets, i eat a very minimal amount. I've heard a-lot of rumors about predicting the baby's gender through the food you crave, is there any facts to support that theory? I'm a blogger, and i'd like to know if this is true or not before i post. https://diaryofafirst-timemommy.blogspot.com/

Nope, no facts. Just a myth.

I craved different things with each of mine. I have four boys.

The cravings theory was wrong for me.

My three pregnancies were all completely different in the way I felt, what I craved, and how I looked.  They're all boys.

With DD, sweet made me gag and I craved spicy food... The hotter the better. With DS, everything made me gag and I ate green grapes and saltines for like the entire pregnancy. This time, sweet stuff and spicy stuff make me gag, and I am again living on grapes but barf upon sight of saltines. Ya just never know! (This LO is a girl, fwiw)

I can say without a doubt..no lol. I'm having a boy, but I'm craving nothing but sweets right now. I gulped down a pumpkin latte earlier, and ate a whole bag of Reeses in the last 2 days. I'm not usually this unhealthy, but it's been hard the last week lol.

for my first 18 weeks or so, I craved Vinegar. I also craved anything with condiments. (ketchup, mustard, etc.)

It varies. The only consistent thing I have seen is the way I carry. I have a 3 year old boy, and pregnant with a boy, and both babies were carried low. My friends who had girls carried more wide and up.

I thought the same. Crave sweets means girl crave salty greasy means boy. But I have been craving salty things and we are having a girl!!!!
