What are the symptoms of pregnancy for a boy or a girl?

As we all know, whether a woman gives birth to a boy or a girl is not decided by herself, but by men. When we studied biology in high school, we knew that the husband's genes determine the gender of the next generation. Generally speaking, the probability of giving birth to a boy or a girl is the same, both 50%. During pregnancy, people are always full of infinite curiosity about the gender of the fetus in the belly. So for pregnant women, what are the symptoms of giving birth to a boy or a girl?

Symptoms of pregnancy:

Perhaps since the existence of human beings, the question of whether a baby will be a boy or a girl has been a matter of curiosity, and speculation about the baby's gender has become rampant from the moment a woman becomes pregnant. In fact, there are many signs of whether the baby will be a boy or a girl. What are the signs of whether the baby will be a boy or a girl?

1. The speed and strength of the fetal heart rate

Judging the gender of the baby based on the speed of the fetal heartbeat is also a common method to predict the symptoms of a boy or girl. It is generally believed that if the fetal heart rate is strong and slow, the fetus is more likely to be a boy; otherwise, it is a girl.

2. Changes in taste during pregnancy

After a woman becomes pregnant, in addition to many different physical reactions, changes in diet are also one of the important symptoms. There is a saying among the people that "sour food means a boy, spicy food means a girl", which means that if you like sour food, you will give birth to a boy, and if you like spicy food, you will give birth to a girl. Although this statement is not scientific, it is a widely circulated method of judgment.

3. If you are pregnant with a boy, eat your favorite food

Pregnant women carrying a boy consume an average of 8% more protein, 9% more carbohydrates, 11% more animal fat, and 15% more vegetable fat than those carrying a girl. A pregnant woman carrying a boy eats much more food during pregnancy than when she is not pregnant, but she does not show symptoms of eating different or strange foods, but instead eats her favorite foods in large quantities.

4. Judging by the shape of the pregnant woman’s belly

The characteristics of whether a pregnant woman will give birth to a boy or a girl can also be judged from the shape of her belly. Some people say that if the pregnant woman's belly is pointed, she will be pregnant with a boy, and if the belly is round, she will be pregnant with a girl.

5. The amount of food that expectant mothers should eat

The male hormone testosterone secreted by the male fetus's testicles sends a "must eat" signal to the mother, causing the mother to eat more. In addition, although mothers carrying boys give birth to heavier babies, the weight they gain during pregnancy is no more than that of pregnant women carrying girls, which shows that the gender of the fetus does not affect the mother's weight.

6. Changes in the appearance and skin of pregnant women

Some people say that the gender of the fetus can be judged based on the appearance and skin color of the pregnant woman. If the pregnant woman's appearance becomes beautiful and her skin becomes smooth, she may be pregnant with a girl. On the contrary, if her appearance becomes uglier, her skin becomes rough, or even her face is covered with acne, she may be pregnant with a boy. These are more common symptoms of being pregnant with a boy or a girl.
