Is it true that if you are expecting a baby girl, you look prettier because of the "enhanced" female homones and vice versa. Just curious.

Hmm... think it really depends on individual, many people commented my skin texture improved & have a special glow which before pregnant don't have. Hubby also said skin becomes smoother, but i do suffer from drier skin which i need to apply double dosage of moisteriser of what i normally apply. But i am expecting a boy woh! :err:

good for you :) guess the old wives' tale is not true then...
Hehe, just read the old wives tales for leisure, boy or girl doesn't matter, most important baby is healthy. Make sure you have nutritious & balanced diet for your baby's good growth!!:001_302:

My in-laws stressed me that they want boy ...for me i just want my baby to be healthy and happy.
Is this your first baby? Or you already have one daughter, that's why they stressed they want boy?

Just my personal view though....don't mean to offend anyone ya... actually i feel girl is better, generally they have parents' heart compared to sons who usually listen to their wife more. :err:

i looked darn ugly when i was expecting my dear daughter. :p
me too, very ugly when having my girl. Big n swollen nose, in fact im swollen every where at the later part of pregnancy think due to terrible water retention. My hubby n frens stil laugh at my 'pig' nose.

but when i hav my boy, doesnt hav this occuring.

This is my first baby and my hubby is the only son in the family, that's why the huge preference.

My dad also says daughters are more filial and closer to heart...hee

Thanks for the encouragement.

I dun conceive easily so everyone finds this pregnancy very precious. And I am not getting any younger, so this could possibly be our only one. Am trying my best to be very careful but I won't have any control over the gender mah...stress me also no use rite?

I have to keep reminding myself to be positive and cheerful so that I will have a cute and happy baby.

yup, just relax and enjoy your pregnancy. Don't bother so much about what your in laws want. My in laws were also hoping for a boy and they were kinda of disappointed when they found out it was a girl. :p

Chances are 50-50 so u may get what you wish for...be positive & don't think so much about the gender issue since we have no control, we accept whatever god plan for us :001_302:. Every kid is special!
