No!! That's  just uneducated people talking hun!! Having a misscarriage has nothing to do with the sex of the baby!

My mil was told she'd never carry a girl after 2-3 miscarriages but she did and she's fine. On the other hand my sister in law had a boy then 7-8 misses and then another boy...they reckon they were girls she was losing. Maybe hormone imbalance.

As in someone telling you that you are unable to carry a boy or unable to carry a girl? If that's what you mean, then no, it's not true. Technically males choose the sex of the baby, so it's not up to you at all.
