No offense to anyone, this is a silly question. My sister told me that when your having a boy you get pregnant glow because of the testosterone in your body, but when having a girl they steal your looks and suck all the estrogen out? This may be dumb but I was just wondering opinions.

I had the "glow" briefly during my pregnancy, and I had a girl.

I think you have the glow when pregnant w/ girls too.
About testosterone (only speaking for myself)... I wanted you-know-what throughout the entire pregnancy and I swear it had to do w/ the testosterone, lol. My hubby loved it but as soon as our son was born, I was back to normal; no more thinking like a man, lol.

Sorry, your sister is slightly wrong with this one. I had two girls and had the "glow". My face was clear, my nails and hair grew like crazy. My sister had a boy and her face was all broken out and dull looking. Her hair stopped growing and her nails kept breaking. So it can be either girl or boy. "Glow" has nothing to do with gender. :)

No its not ture. the pregnant glow comes from the increase of blood your body now has to produce. so the blood that runs through your body is a little more visable. causing you to look like your glowing.

My opinion is that it doesent make a difference, every pregnancy is different. I had a boy and I didnt have the glow

I believe that completely. I'm pregnant now and look like crap. Since the day I found out that I was pregnant, i felt like it was a girl, and I'll find out on the 26th at my ultrasound. My son I had alot of morning sickness, but looked great and that was 6 years ago. My daughter I'm not so sure. that was 8 years ago.

I do not think there is any truth to that. I am having a girl, and everyone keeps telling me I am glowing...

That's not true. You get a glow with all pregnancies no matter what the sex.
