Cravings by Gender

So I've heard that depending on your babies gender you crave different things.....

If it's a boy you crave salty & spicy things... But with a girl you crave sweeter things....

I'd like a poll on cravings ladies! And let me know what you're having!!

  I'm 19 weeks and won't be finding out the sex of the baby, it will be our surprise!  I've been obsessing over spicy things, I drink TONS of Milk..thats my go to drink with ANY meal...yet in the morning I want chocolate pudding!!

I'm having a boy and I've only craved sweet things the whole pregnancy. I quit soda a year before getting pregnant and cravings for soda came back...cookies are my fave food right now...girl scout cookies and choco chip and double chocolate chip, muffins, scones, pop tarts, sugar cereals..and yep it's a boy!!! So these myths have nothing to do with what gender you are having. I'm also carrying high but its due to me being short and less room for a baby in there!

I crave salt a lot...all I want is pretzels.  I'm almost going nuts right now cause I'm trying to cut back on my salt in take.  I'm got two options either pick the pretzels out of the cheezit mix or make popcorn.  Oh yeah...I'm having identical twin boys!
