5 Signs During Pregnancy That Predicts It's A Boy

Having a baby is one of the biggest moments in your life. That’s why it’s so understandable that so many people want to know just what they’re having. Sure, you can get an ultrasound. But even then, you have to wait weeks to find out!

However, there are a few things you can do to know whether or not you’re having a boy. Since some couples even decide to wait until the actual birth to know what they’re having, it’s still fun to make guesses based on some of the signs below that can give you clues as to what you’re having. It’s even more fun if you place a bet on it!

# You carry them lower
Although there’s no science behind this technique, there are so many people who swear by this method because it has a high success rate. If you’re carrying your baby lower on your body, there’s more of a chance that you’ll have a boy than a girl. This was a trick used way back before ultrasounds were even around and it was a very popular method in determining which sex you’d be having because it really did work most of the time. This method is harder in shorter women, however, because their torso is so short the belly looks to be both high and low.

# You get cold feet
No, this isn’t about having a baby in general. This is when you literally get cold feet. There is a scientific reason for this one, actually. When you have a boy, for whatever reason, your circulation is worse than when you’re having a girl. Therefore, if you have cold feet and hands often, you’re more than likely having a boy.

# Little girls love you
If you’re around baby girls or girl toddlers and they all just seem to LOVE being around you all the time, it may be because you’re having a boy. This goes back to the way our DNA is made for us to seek out a possible mate as early on as possible. Those babies and little girls may like you so much simply because their pheromones can detect that you’re having a boy – AKA, a possible future mate.

# Your right boob is bigger
There really isn’t too much science to this and it’s also hard to detect because all women have different sized boobs already, but there are women who swear by this method. The idea is that if your right boob develops to be bigger during your pregnancy than your left, then you’re having a boy! Now, this is specifically interesting to many women because naturally, most women have a larger left breast simply because it’s closer to the heart. So if your right boob really does grow bigger, it’s more likely to be a boy.

# You don’t crave sweetness
This is another method that doesn’t have science backing it up, but there are women all over the world who guarantee it means you’re having a boy. This idea is that if you don’t crave sweet things but instead all you want is savory food then you’re most likely having a boy. However, this can be really hard to tell if you’re someone who naturally doesn’t really like sweets all that much. Either way, it’s worth noting!
