Don't know the sex yet but this pg has been a little worse for ms, although my lifestyle is very different too. With my son I was working a stressful job with long hours. I would come home late and feel sick so couldnt eat dinner and go straight to bed. This time I have a lot more energy but I feel sick all day long and need to eat snacks constantly to not feel terrible. I am hoping for a girl this time. 5 weeks to go till I can find out :)]]> Sat, 23 Apr 2011 07:42:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38867&PID=1311439&title=different-pregnancies-and-gender#1311439 <![CDATA[Different pregnancies and gender? : Sheza wrote:different!

it's funny what people say if you have a girl already they say "oh it must be a boy" or vice versa.
both felt the same and same symptoms e.t.c heart burn , no morning sickness. But showed earlier with Ds2 and was bigger, but that's a 2nd child thing not a gender thng.

My pregnancies were all fairly similar and I have 2 boys and 1 girl.

The only differences I can remember were I loved coffee with the boys, but couldn't stomach it with my daughter. And the smell of cooking meat made me nauseaus (sp?) with the boys but I didn't mind it so much with my girl.

Also I worked til 36 and 38 weeks with my boys but only until 28 weeks with my girl. This was due to tiredness - BUT I was also breastfeeding at the same time. I stopped b/feeding and work about the same time, and within a week or so I was feeling heaps better so it probably didn't have that much to do with it.

ETA: Oh and I had the metallic taste with my girl but not the boys.

This one seems very similar to me and we're having a girl this time.

Out of my 3 friends that are also pregnant with their 2nd, the two that are having boys again felt different and the one that had a girl first and is now having a boy thought she felt the same like me! All 4 of us guessed wrong.

Hopefully it's the sleeping gene that's different for you

Completely different pregnancies and both boys. I was convinced under 20wks that because it was so different it'd be a girl.
At 20wk scan they said boy and I didn't believe it. I've had 3 more scans since then - boy boy boy.

Interesting topic. I obviously have no idea yet what were having but this pg is very similar to my one with Jackson. The only real point of difference is MS was much worse this time and reflux started earlier.

Will be interesting to see how the rest of the pregnancy goes and what we will be having. ]]> Tue, 19 Apr 2011 22:16:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38867&PID=1309544&title=different-pregnancies-and-gender#1309544 <![CDATA[Different pregnancies and gender? : Both very similar pregnancies,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38867&PID=1309523&title=different-pregnancies-and-gender#1309523 Author: MrsEmma

DDs pregnancy was very hard. Sickness whole pregnancy. Just very crap.

I've been absolutely amazed over the past 16 or so weeks just how different my pregnancies have been so far. Everytime I mention that to anyone, they say "oh, you must be having a boy this time" but I'm not really convinced.

On the one hand, there are 46 chromosomes to a person, any of which could be different to the ones DD has, not just the X/Y one.

But on the other hand, the sex will have some impact on the hormones released by the fetus, and I'm very much aware of how much of an influence hormones can have on how you feel! So maybe there is something in it.

I thought I'd do a very scientific Oh-Baby poll

So, lovely experienced ladies with more than one baby, were your pregnancies similar or different and were your babies the same or different genders?]]> Tue, 19 Apr 2011 20:00:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38867&PID=1309396&title=different-pregnancies-and-gender#1309396
