Symptoms of a boy in the fourth month of pregnancy

I believe every pregnant woman will be very curious about the gender of the baby in her belly. Even in modern society, ultrasound examinations can effectively detect the baby's gender, but most doctors will not directly tell pregnant women. At this time, pregnant women can only infer the baby's gender through some physical pregnancy symptoms. So when a pregnant woman is 4 months pregnant, if she is carrying a boy, what physical symptoms will she have?

Characteristics of a boy during the fourth month of pregnancy

1. The pregnancy reaction is not very severe, just frequent headaches in the morning (this is also an early pregnancy reaction) and less vomiting.

2. The baby's fetal heart rate is slow, always over 140. I have a fetal heart monitor so I listen to it often. The readings are almost the same every time, but very strong and powerful.

3. Pregnant women want to eat meat, and their saliva starts to flow when they smell the roasted meat at other people’s homes. But I can't eat much.

4. The line from the belly to the chest looks really ugly. There is hair on the chest. The line below is crooked and the belly button does not protrude.

5. The appearance suddenly becomes ugly. This is a saying spread by many people. They believe that a pregnant woman becoming ugly is a sign that she is pregnant with a boy.

6. Love to eat sour food: I loved this before, and I love it even more after I got pregnant. I can’t even stand the sweetness of apples. I love to eat raw tomatoes (I heard that they have high nutritional value). Anyway, I love to eat sour food.

7. My legs and feet are swollen. In the late stage of pregnancy, my legs and feet swelled up by two sizes. One time, my two aunts came to see me. As soon as they entered the door, they noticed my "elephant" legs and feet and said that they both gave birth to daughters without this phenomenon, so maybe I was a boy.

8. Swollen fingers: Swollen feet are normal and are common with many people, but swollen hands are relatively rare. I once heard that a friend of mine had such swollen hands that he couldn’t even take off his wedding ring, and he was thankful that it wasn’t his fault. But one day, his hands suddenly became so swollen that he couldn’t even hold chopsticks. Then it gradually got better

9. Body shape. Everyone who sees me asks if I am a twin. When my cousin had her first color ultrasound, she saw two pictures on the computer and excitedly asked the doctor if they were twins. The doctor said in a bad mood that it was not that easy to have twins. Woo. . Because my belly is so big, I have to walk with my legs apart to be comfortable. But when you look from behind, I still have a small waist, haha, you can't tell that I'm pregnant. My center of gravity changed after I gave birth, and for a while I walked strangely and couldn’t walk anymore.

Predicting the sex of the fetus

Symptom 1: Judge the symptoms from the shape of the pregnant woman’s belly.

If a pregnant woman's belly is pointed, she will be pregnant with a boy; if her belly is round, she will be pregnant with a girl.

Symptom 2: Observe changes in the pregnant woman's appearance and skin.

If a 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.

Symptom 3: Changes in taste during pregnancy.

Some people believe that if a pregnant woman's taste is different from her previous pregnancy, whether she is having a boy or a girl will also change.

Symptom 4: The speed, strength and weakness of the fetal heart rate.

It is generally believed that if the fetal heart rate is stronger and slower, the fetus is more likely to be a boy; otherwise, it is a girl (a more common way to guess the symptoms of a boy or girl).

Symptom 5: If you are pregnant with a boy, you will eat a lot of your favorite foods.

Pregnant women carrying boys consume an average of 8% more protein, 9% more carbohydrates, 11% more animal fat, and 15% more vegetable fat than those carrying girls. Pregnant women carrying a boy may eat much more food during pregnancy than when they are not pregnant, but they do not show symptoms of eating different or strange foods, but instead they binge on their favorite foods.

Symptom 6: 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, mothers with the characteristics of giving birth to boys will give birth to heavier babies, but the weight they gain during pregnancy is not more than that of pregnant women with girls, which shows that the gender of the fetus does not affect the mother's weight.
