Old wives tale gender guessing!

[Beyond]

One of the hardest things to in pregnancy is waiting those long 16-20 weeks to find out what you're having.

I was thinking we could put our symptoms up here and based on those "old wives tales" guess what each other is having!

But don't forget to come up here when you actually do find out and let us know if we were right!

Also, if you have previous children feel free to share those symptoms and tell us if the old wives tale was true for you.

I'll go first,

My symptoms are

• Almost 24/7 I feel nauseated , but only threw up once
• My nipples have gotten alot darker
• My left nipple stays hard (sorry tmi)
• My face is breaking out
• I'm very bloated , I look 3 months pregnant already
• Constipated
• I have the most crazy and vivid dreams
• I am craving spicy food TERRIBLY. I used to HATE anything spicy. Even hot sauce! Now my cabinets and fridge are loaded with everything spicy and I put hot sauce on EVERYTHING
• I cry at the drop of a dime....I mean I looked at a baby and I literally started tearing up because she was so cute

What do you think I may be having?
Also , my daughter told me I was going to have a boy.

my symptoms this time:
sore boobs
trouble sleeping
mood swings
break out of spots
sick to the point of being admitted to hospital with hyperemesis.
boobs are bigger
had a bleed early on (all is fine)

my symptoms with the girls:
slight morning sickness
sore boobs - which disappeared after a few weeks
heartburn
lovely hair
emotional wreck

I think I'm having a boy this time. my symptoms with the girls were so similar, and it was 2 girls. plus, just from being in hospital with hyperemesis they asked if i had experienced anything like this with the girls and I said no and they said its probably a change in sex and all the different hormones! if its not a boy I will be shocked. I will be happy either way obviously

I was the complete opposite with DS, so maybe it's a girl? I don't really care either way.

I've got a 14 month old, my symptoms with him were:
* very bad morning sickness til at least 14/16 weeks (lost nearly 2 stone)
* could only eat lots of fruit at first and had cravings for pineapple (I actually hate pineapple and can't eat it again)
* had very bad skin breakout throughout the pregnancy
* had a huge bump that was quite high
* boobs got bigger instantly almost and turned very dark within first weeks - how I knew to test
* was extremely tired all the time
* had horrendous heartburn from 20 weeks
* got very moody towards the end but think that was more to do with being big uncomfortable and fed up lol
* couldn't get enough of dairy

This time:
* had a brief spell of nausea the first two weeks which is when I knew to test (we weren't actively trying this time)
* nothing really since apart from round ligament pain
* hair and skin are clear
* kinda gone off dairy a bit, was addicted to dairy last time.
* no cravings yet
* boobs not changed colour as dramatically but hubster noticed
