position of the baby

Is it true that when you are having a girl you carry lower! I heard that boys usually carry higher than girls.. im having a girl and she is really low! Just curious if anyone else heard of this!!

I was carrying very very high during this pregnancy, which I'm having a girl and suddenly last week or so she decided she wanted to move down lower, so now I'm extremely low.

I've always heard the opposite, low means boy.  My mom carried low for all 3 and 2 are girls.

With my first i was carrying really high and he never dropped it was a boy. With this one he was high at first but already dropped low its a boy as well.

It's just a fun wives tale.  I'm having a girl and carrying horribly high.  My first kid is a boy and I looked like I was dropped and ready to pop the whole time lol
