I carried them all low, no heartburn with any, gained same amt of weight, same ms, and they poked and prodded the same- lots. <br/>When my OB mentioned that another doc had asked if I was schelduled for a tubal ligation, I actually felt sick. I love my children and told the OB if all my L&Ds were this easy I would have 7 children by now!<br/>Katherine We have 3 boys (#5 is a week old today!) and 2 girls and I didn’t notice anything differently about the pregnancies.

I knew this "baby" was a boy - just didn't know it is TWIN BOYS!

My first son never stopped moving inside. He jumped, he kicked, he bounced, and whatever else he could do. The next one was so calm and quiet and I felt so good with him that I thought maybe he would be a girl. He was a very pretty boy! = ) I have had 4 boys and if I was going by differences in pregnancy……some of them would have been girls! My first son never stopped moving inside.

I joke that it evened out the stretch marks above and below my belly button. It's hard to tell with the one I'm currently pregnant with but I've suspected a boy. No particular reason, perhaps wishful thinking? Who knows. I only have two so far- one boy who I carried low, one girl who I carried high.

With our three girls I had much worse morning sickness. With this pregnancy it started later and ended sooner and was much more mild. Also two days before I found out I was pregnant I dreamed about a chubby baby boy rolling around on our bed. It was one of those incredibly clear dreams and I felt like this baby was a boy from the start but I didn't have the nerve to tell anyone. ~Diana http://www.xanga.com/islandlife Our first boy is die within 10 days.

I didn't notice anything different although the heartbearts were definitely different - boys had higher rates. <br/><br/>But I did have an experience like yours with my first baby. I was noticeably pregnant when I ran into a gal who used to work for me as a student at the university. We were friends but certainly not close and we hadn't be in tough in quite a while. She was pleased to see I was pregnant. She touched my stomach and said with calm confidence, "You're going to have a girl." I hemmed and hawed about not knowing what I was having and how we'd just have to see, etc.... Undeterred, she said again, "Oh no, you're definitely having a girl." <br/><br/>OK, then! <br/><br/>We said our good-byes and I thought she was being a little wacky. But she had a last laugh because we most definitely had a girl! I had 2 girls and 3 boys in that order.
