The girls in my mother's group have all been having their second bubs over the past year and we've been closely monitoring sympotoms and comparing our previous pregnancy.

The one theme we seem to have found is that when PG with a girl we've been more teary, sensitive, vulnerable when emotional, but with boys we've been more angry, impatient and irritable. I definitely found this difference with my 2. With DD I cried at the news, Bondi Vet, a kind gesture.... anything! With DS, well I'm not usually an angry person at all, but honestly by the end I just wanted to kick stuff. Hard. And got road-ragey, snippy with DH and generally pi$$ed with the world. It was ugly! My Mum said she was actually relieved when DS came early as she'd been really struggling with how snappy I was getting - I felt awful. Had no idea I'd been that bad!
