I craved sweet & citrus throughout my whole pregnancy - I guess I'm the exception because I'm having a boy.

The same with my sister, she has been craving sweets and is having a boy.

For me, it's too soon to find out the sex. But I was just curious because I am craving salty foods - and pre-pregnancy I hated salty foods.
