How do you know if your carrying a boy?

There are several common signs and methods used to speculate the sex of a baby during pregnancy, though they are not definitive. Some people believe that carrying low indicates a boy, while cravings for salty or protein-rich foods are also thought to suggest a male fetus. Ultrasound scans around the 18-20 week mark are the most reliable way to determine the baby's sex, along with genetic testing options like amniocentesis or non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Ultimately, the most accurate confirmation comes from medical professionals.
