Just to clarify, are u asking if knotted hair indicates what sex ur baby will be? One has absolutely nothing to do with the other. If your hair is knotted try a different conditioner and brushing it more often.
Your hair can change due to pregnancy hormones, mine seems to always get thicker. Some people's gets curlier or frizzier. Sometimes my hair gets like that even when not pregnant and changing up my shampoo/conditioner usually cures it.
It absolutely does not have anything to do with the sex of your baby and just to clarify, even though some people may say that certain cravings, body changes, aversions, etc mean boy or girl, they don't. All of those things are just old wives tales and they have been debunked time and time again.
In my professional opinion as a hairstylist your problem indicates your need for a haircut. Split ends make your hair knotted. Hormones can change the hair's texture but if you've only been pregnant for a couple of months then the only texture that could be different thus far would be the first couple of inches starting from your roots.
Has anyone else had their hair get super knotty? Even after using conditioner my hair starts to get matted.
Does this mean boy/girl?
Definitely sounds like you are having a girl. This is a classic "stealing the mother's beauty" situation. Congrats!

^^^ This. I've noticed my hair gets knotted more on my right side, like A TON more and that is mainly where our little girl sits. Our boy sits on my left side more often and that side is way more manageable.

I don't understand this logic at all. I'm really confused. Can you please explain how knotted hair = boy or girl? You can have hair texture changes in pregnancy, but that usually doesn't occur until 2nd or 3rd trimester anyway.
OP, I also have knotted hair and I'm having a girl. I'm 98% sure you're having a girl too! You might want to test your pee with baking soda to be sure though.
My hair is knotty, too, lately. As others said, it's not a symptom of pregnancy. However, it could likely be due to your sleep quality. I know I'm not sleeping well. I toss and turn all night and have some night sweats, so I wake up with ratty, greasy hair.
This, of course, has nothing to do with the sex of your baby.
