Do you feel more hungry with a boy or girl?

Published in Pregnancy Nutrition 1 min read

Based on research, women tend to eat more when carrying a boy, although this doesn't necessarily translate to more weight gain during the pregnancy compared to those carrying a girl.

Scientists have confirmed that pregnant women consume more food when expecting a male child. However, it is important to note that even though consumption increases, overall weight gain during pregnancy appears to be similar whether the mother is carrying a boy or a girl. This suggests that while the feeling of hunger might be greater when carrying a boy, the body's management of weight gain remains relatively consistent across both scenarios.
