  1. Well I can say that I had NO symptoms (other than heartburn at the very beginning) when pregnant with my daughter.  None!  Now I am pregnant again and this time I was sick constantly for the first trimester.  Lots of cravings.  Basically, a lot more symptoms this time around.  And it's another girl.

    Goes to show that every pregnancy is different and you can't judge what the s*x will be by symptoms, heartrate, how you are carrying or anything else.  Time will tell!

    Good Luck and Congrats!


  2. With my boys I was seriously sick with my first one and not sick at all with my second one, and they were both boys, so go figure.  

  3. With both my sons I was sick to my stomach and with my daughter I had no sickness at all.

  4. I have two girls, and would like to know the same thing!!!! as this one is so different already also!!! Congrats on your new blessing, & congrats on making the 12 week mark, that is a milestone in pregnancy :)  

  5. When pregnant with my son I was not sick at all. I also didn't have many cravings. With this pregnancy(it's a girl) I was sick all the time until 3 months into the pregnancy. I also craved lots of water. So, for me I was very sick with a girl also very moody.  

  6. There are three main techniques of s*x selection: pre-natal testing and termination of pregnancy; pre-implantation genetic testing of embryos; sperm sorting – selection of sperm carrying X or Y chromosomes followed by insemination or IVF.  

    A baby is conceived when the sperm (produced by the father) fertilises the egg (produced by the mother). The egg carries X chromosome while the sperm can carry X or Y chromosome. If X-carrying sperm fertilises the egg, a baby girl will be conceived and if a Y-carrying sperm fertilises the egg, a baby boy will be conceived. In order to increase your chances of conceiving a child of the gender you wish, you need to learn how to identify your cervical fluid extremely well. It is a good idea to keep a chart for at least several cycles before you attempt to try to get pregnant. One theory is that sperm that carry the male chromosome are tiny and fragile but very quick, whereas the female sperm are larger and hardier, but rather sluggish. Those that adhere to this theory claim that you can improve your chances of conceiving a boy, for example, by timing intercourse one single time as close to ovulation as possible, then not again during the same cycle. The reasoning behind this being that the male sperm would race to their reward much faster than the female sperm. In addition, this will assure that the male sperm have as much access to the cervix as possible. Penetration should be deep at the moment of ejaculation in order to give the males a headstart, while the larger female sperm move slower.

    According to this s*x selection theory, if you want a baby girl: Shallow penetration in the missionary position (man on top) will allow your partner to deposit sperm at the mouth of the cervix, which is said to favor the slow-moving sperm. Avoid o****m. This will help keep your vaginal environment highly acidic. To increase acidity even more, use a vinegar and water douche preceeding intercourse. Abstain from s*x on the 3rd and 4th day prior to ovulation and begine making love 2 days prior to ovulation. If you are using an ovulation predictor kit, make love when the solution is darkest. If you want a baby boy: Use deep penetration, and the rear-entry position, which will allow your partner to deposit sperm above the neck of the cervix, for fast entry into the uterus. The environment there is more alkaline, making easier for male sperm to survive. Douche with 2 Tb of baking soda in 1 quart of water just prior to intercourse to encourage an alkaline vaginal environment. Try to acheive o****m at the same time your husband is ejaculating to lend in a more alkaline environment. Your partner should avoid masturbation for 4-5 days, and you should both avoind intercourse until your day of ovulation. This will help ensure the highest sperm count and give the advantage to the fast-moving male sperm. If you are using an ovulation predictor kit, make love 24 hours after the solution is its darkest.


  7. Sorry, it's 50 / 50 every time!  All of my pregnancies were so different and I ended up with 1 girl and 4 boys.
