With my son I was sick morning, noon and night throughout I didnt really stop. My hair grew long and healthy and shiny. With my daughter I was sick only in the mornings and stopped around 15/16wks. The odd time here and there but that was down to heartburn. I had bad skin for a few months, dry in places and I'm exactly the same this time and sure enough I'm having a girl. I carried exactly the same however with both my son and daughter and heartburn was horrendous with both of them from around 21/22wks.
I knew this baby was a girl from about a month into pregnancy due to the symptoms and just mummys intuition.

I have been crying, irritable, and horrible mood swings..  I threw up through the whole first trimester. To the point where I lost about 18 pounds.. the baby sits really really low usually and had an average heartrate of 135... everyone swore a boy.. nope, shes a girl!

I've for the most part felt the exact same with both my pregnancies. I just had a gut feeling what each was and I was right both times.

I have figured out its not girl vs boy it's each pregnancy is completely different. I can not believe how different they are I have 1 boy and I am pregnant with my 2nd. Completely different.

Also the sting over my belly and baking soda was right.I found a place that did ultrasounds at 14 weeks to determine the gender

Agree with all of the above. I'm on girl number 3. With number 1 had morning sickness for the first trimester and heart burn from then on. Number 2 had worse morning sickness (had to make sure I had a plastic store bag with me at all times when out) well into the second tri combined with heart burn. And currently with girl number I had morning sickness maybe 3 times total. But wicked heartburn. And tons of aches and pains. Never even heard of round ligament pain before this pregnancy, and my hips, back, and pelvis are killing me.

Determining the sex of a baby by the symptoms you're having is the same as dangling a string over your belly to give you an answer.

It's hard to say, everyone's symptoms are different
I never had morning sickness with any of my pregnancies (thank God) but my first born was a girl, and I was EXTREMELY FATIGUED during that pregnancy. My second and third pregnancies were boys and I didn't have any symptoms at all except some dizziness during the 6th month. I'm 8w5d with my fourth child and I've slept right through these last 2 month so I'm hoping for another girl. But the doctor says that there's no way to tell the sex of the baby by symptoms alone . . .

You really can't tell because people thought I was having a girl because i had bad morning sickness. I had morning sickness all day everyday for 3 months. I was craving nothing but hamburgers and people thought I was having a boy and they was right.
