While this isn’t completely backed by science, there have been old wives’ tales and signs that you may be having a little boy, even before getting your ultrasound or blood test.
Boy moms tend to be much more relaxed at the beginning of their pregnancy, suffering less from mood swings and emotional outbursts. However, regardless of gender, all pregnant moms will have some grace during pregnancy.
Try using the pregnancy hand test. The idea behind this is that you will place your hands cupping your belly; if your hands turn inward versus outward the theory is that means you are having a baby boy.
Your hair likely becomes luscious if you’re a boy mama.
Be warned; this isn’t just your head hair coming in wildly. Your body hair may increase and become more coarse during your pregnancy as well.
If you or your partner are having dreams about little girls it is more likely that you are actually having a boy! This is an old wives’ tale that turned out to be true during my own pregnancy.
Boy moms are less likely to become ill during their first trimester than girl moms. This is because the hCG hormone is a big catalyst in morning sickness; the less there is the less the chances are of upchucking!
If your hands are drier during pregnancy, the wives’ tale predicts that you are having a little boy. It is said that softer hands are a sign of a little girl instead.
If you are craving salty more than sweet you might be having a boy! Girl mommies are much more likely to be craving sweets in their first trimester while it is found that boy moms want more meat and foods sprinkled with a little salt.
Devour a clove of garlic; the legend is that if you’re having a boy you will smell, while girl moms will not emit a scent.

The fetal heart rate is faster. It is found on average that girls have a very slightly slower heartbeat than boys do! It used to be found to be the opposite, but that myth has been busted!
When your bump starts growing and it is rounded, typically lower, it is more likely that you are having a boy. Boy moms carry as if they have a basketball in their shirts.
It is believed that if your partner does gain alongside you, you are more likely to opt to have a girl. If your partner stays in their shape without much fluctuating, it is a theory that it is more likely that you are having a boy.
This has to do with the hormones you experience throughout pregnancy, but the legend is that cold feet are a sure sign of a little boy!
However, none of these are based entirely on the scientific community. If you are looking to know the sex of your baby, the best ways to be sure are through ultrasounds, noninvasive prenatal testing, or a nuchal translucency scan…CONTINUE READING>>
