No, it's unrelated to the gender. Every pregnancy is different.

My mom was in labor for 22 hours with me. And 3 hours for my brothers. I was in labor 43 1/2 hours for my son.
It has to do with the hormones in your body as to how quick the labor is. Its all about oxytocin. It causes contractions and dilates the cervix.

Sorry to say all the above are right I've had 2 boys and a girl and all of them under 6 hrs each!(sorry to make you feel worse).
Good luck hope you are all well.XxxxX

You poor thing i don't think the sex of the baby matters, but surely the hospital can give you something to speed things up good luck with the new baby

Are you trying to have people believe that you've been in labor for over a week, your doctor doesn't care and you're just sitting back writing stupid comments to complete strangers?
You should be talking w/a doc/nurse every other day @ this point. Ask one of them... then go spend time with the other 2 kids you already have.
