Morning sickness = girl?

I keep reading how many ladies seem to have more morning sickness when pregnant with a girl. (I even get jealous when I read how ladies with DS say they had no nausea!) This is my first pregnancy and I feel quite sick.

Is there anyone out there who had lots of m/s with their DS ? Or none with their DD?

  • My sister swears by that. But my best friend had no morning sickness and she had a girl. So it's really just an old wives tale.

  • I didn't even have a hint of m/s, and to everyone's surprise I had a girl (we didn't find out the sex).

  • I worked with a girl who had extreme morning sickness the ENTIRE pregnancy and she had a boy.
  • I don't buy into any of those old wives tales.  Its just not how biology works.
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

  • This is #3 for me but my other 2 are girls and with the 1st one I had m/s all 9 months and with the 2nd one I had m/s through the 1st Trimester. This time I haven't had any m/s so I'm hoping it means I'm having a boy :) Good luck and hope you feel better soon! I know its not fun at all!
  • My Aunt had MS from begininng to end of her pg and had a DS-

    My other aunt had no MS and had DS

    so i dont think MS is any indicator of gender

    A friend of mine was exactly the same.

    There are always exceptions to everything, obviously, but there is some actual research out there that shows a correlation between morning sickness and carrying female babies.
