"Cold Feet" OWT-- Claiming to be Truth

lgsdesigner · December 2014

Do you have cold feet? Well—a recent article said this OWT is actually true.
If you are carrying a boy, your feet tend to be colder.

From Parenting.com –

“Rumor has it that women with cold feet are more likely to have boys. For once, there appears to be some truth to this, as cold feet can be caused by bad circulation, which is more common in women who do then have boys. Reasons as to why the mothers of boys normally suffer from this problem appears to be unknown.”

But my feet are always cold

@viola27- Ha! Does this mean you were destined to make ONLY boys??

I'm in the same boat as @viola27 - my feet are always cold too. Poor DH in bed at night.

Responding to this newfound "truth", my feet were really cold when I carried my son, warm when I carried my daughter.

@GFJ48- Eat THAT Parenting.com! That must be why they used wording like "more likely to have" than "you WILL have" cold feet.

I don't let my feet get cold, I'm never not wearing socks. I have to sleep in them. I guess I'll never know!
My feet are even cold in socks! What does this mean?! Will my little boy pop out with a full beard?!

Viking baby.

@samiamagirl‌ lol to your viking baby picture!! We saw the Hobbitt movie yesterday & one of the main characters looked like this...

@lgsdesigner‌ omg thanks for posting! My feet have been freezing this pregnancy. I'm wearing socks all the time. Don't know the sex yet

@AlwaysLastZZ‌ lol I noticed my feet are a bit smelly this pregnancy when they never have been before!! Ew

btw I think the pics you posted of yourself a few weeks ago are beautiful! (I saw the post but didn't have time to respond!). You're a brave & beautiful lady!

@AlwaysLastZZ - That's funny about the "smelly feet" OWT. Never heard that one before! Even right after a shower, I feel like I still smell. I am a lot sweatier with this one. That being said-- my feet only smell if I wear my sockless work shoes, but that's not pregnancy related...that's science!

My feet are so cold that my H and I have had many long, perplexed discussions about how it is physically possible for my feet to be so much colder than the actual temperature of the room.

I have two girls.

My whole body has been cold this pg. FX it's a polar bear! I'll keep you guys posted. Tomorrow morning will be the moment of truth!

I have never heard this. I have ice block feet, but having a girl.

I have noticed since I got pregnant my feet have been a lot hotter and sweatier, I am having a boy. I always had cold feet before I got pregnant, but I have noticed my feet feel like they are starting to swell so maybe that's why they are getting sweaty because my shoes are too tight! Time to go up a size.
