I was extremely sick my first trimester but now I'm thank god its gone and I'm suppose 2 b 25 wks but my doc said I'm measuring bigger than they originally thought! So it all depends on u and the baby, but wit my son I was never once nauseous or anything!

I had terrible morning sickness at the beginning of my pregnancy and I just found out I'm having a boy. With my daughter I was nauseous but nothing like this pregnancy. My skin has been extra dry this time and with my daughter it wasn't as bad. It's so difficult to tell. Honestly, go with your gut. I think they say women's intuition is right 70% of the time. I thought I was having a girl last time when everyone else said boy. I was right. This time I knew it was a boy. The hard part is separating what you really want from what you feel. LOL.

Thanks! Everything keeps pointing to a boy. The Dr even said the heart rate (151) seemed like a boy. I'd love a girl first but either way will be happy as long as he/she is healthy :)

I had zero morning sickness and I'm almost 36 weeks pregnant wuth my daughter.  My best friend is having her 3rd child and has had the most awful morning sickness and she's also having a girl.  It just depends on your body and the baby.  There is no solid proof unfortunately.   I kept asking this very same question before I found out :) I looked at the chinese gender calendar thing and it was right for me but nothing is for certain.   Good luck and hope you have a healthy baby and a healthy pregnancy :)
