Are boys more active in the womb than girls?

Question

I'm almost 19 weeks pregnant and I've had 2 ultrasounds, needless to say, the baby moved where we could not find out what the s*x was. But, this baby is so active. My first child (girl) did not move this much. Are boys more active in the womb than girls?

Answer 1

I am currently pregnant with twins.... a boy and girl. My girl moves all the time while my boy only moves right before i go to sleep....

Answer 2

Mine was actually the opposite. The girl (first) was more active than the boy (second). He's 4 months old now and STILL much more laid back than his sister (a HUGE drama queen!).

Answer 3

No, every baby is different and the s*x has nothing to do with it.  You can have 2 boys one really active and the other not and same with girls, it is different with every baby.

edit

whats with all the thumbs down to everyone?!

Answer 4

Nope, but every pregnancy is different and every baby has his own distinct personality.

It has nothing to do with him being a boy, rather than a girl, but just the fact that he's different.

I've got a very lazy baby boy.

Answer 5

It is one of them things that is a bit impossible to tell just from how active they are.

I suggest that if your thinking about given them a name, that you choose and boy and a girl name and then apply to what ever they become when they are born.

Don't drink coffee and tea while pregnant.

PS - What is wrong with what I siad above.

I would have thought this would be an inevitable thought to cross ones mind eventually.

Answer 6

I have borne only boys and they both were hyper-active,  kicking about so much that I was afraid people could actually see them!

But since I don't have any experience with the girls I can't say for sure.  Neither do I know of any studies done to either confirm or refute the claim...

So at the most this remains a poll.  

Answer 7

i would think they are  the same active it just depends on what you eat

sugar coffee anything like that will get them bouncing

Answer 8

i'm having a girl and i swear, she doesn't stop moving for a second.

Answer 9

Not really sure, if there is a way to tell between boys and girls on their movements in the womb, my son was pretty quiet in there, and he only would move late at night when I was trying to sleep.  

Answer 10

I don't think so, I am 25 weeks now and pregnant with my first which is a girl and she is active 24/7, it took my doctor forever to see as she wouldn't sit still for even a moment. Being my first I never expected her to be so active, so I think it is all in the personality of the child
