Boy vs Girl via Morning Sickness?

With my first pregnancy I was so sick the whole 9 months, but with this second pregnancy I have very minimal morning sickness and I'm wondering if that means I am having a boy? Anyone else have different experiences like this? I also started taking a B complex vitamin a few months before we started trying because I read this can diminish morning sickness in pregnancy. I just can't believe that I haven't gotten unbearably sick yet! I am 8 weeks and last time my mornins sickness set in at 6 weeks.

What can I do next?

Every pregnancy is different. I have two boys, and the first time I was super sick from about 8 weeks until 19 weeks (throwing up multiple times per day). The second time I never threw up at all, felt great the whole pregnancy. I was convinced it was going to be a girl... nope! Another boy. This time, it is a girl, and I have been sick again. SO, I say if you really want to know, you'll have to wait till that 20 week ultrasound!

Well I am not one that ever had morning sickness but I didnt have morning sickness with my first child and it was a girl didnt have morn sickness the 2nd pregnancy and had a boy and this third time around i didnt have morn sickness at all again and found out i was having a boy. I think it is all superstition... Every one is different!

I think it is just the first baby. I have two boys and a girl. I was terribly sick with my first boy, not all all with my second, and heartburn with my daughter. Your body was just not used to being pregnant. And morning sickness is usually because your blood sugar drops too much. That's why they tell you to eat lots of small meals throughout the day to keep your levels even. I could not stand the sight or smell of foods when I was first pregant with my first child, and got in a bad habit of not eating often enough and then getting sick when I did eat.

This could mean your having a boy but don't buy blue paint yet. A friend of mine had this happen and has 2 boys.

I've never had any girls but I'm pregnant with boy number 3 and have never had morning sickness. I've a few mornings of nausea with each (maybe 2 or 3 days tops) nothing more than the nausea.

Mine was opposite. First time around it was REALLY REALLY bad (girl) and second time not as bad (boy)
