She said if you are having a girl, you will look pretty much the same as you do now but if you are having a boy, you will look ugly. Yes, that's what she said. She said your face changes and you don't look like yourself. I wondered if you could look different - but better. Her answer was "no, you don't look better."
Whenever anyone told her they thought she was having a boy, she would take offense. She said "never tell anyone that they are having a boy!"
I've been told more often that people think I'm having a boy than a girl but don't worry, my feelings aren't hurt.
Has anyone else heard of this before?

how did you morph your picture with chewbacca?
Yes, I want to know the same thing as Rob. And, I guess my first guess was right...you must be having a boy, I did not want to say anything but you WERE starting to look like Chewy. Haha!! No I have NEVER heard of that! I think that lady is CRAZY! And, you could NEVER look ugly!
OMG, take down that ugly picture...oh - here's a thought. Maybe she meant that's what your BABY BOY would look like (No, No, No, JUST KIDDING).
I'm with Dorothy - I have never, never, never heard that before (and I've been around awhile); the person who said that is looney tunes!

My 92 year old grandma says it's the opposite. If you are having a girl you don't look as good (not necessarily ugly) because the girl needs your beauty to get her own??!! My family is filled with a bunch of bs though, we're all Italian!
I agree with Dorothy and your Mom, that lady is a Crazy Lady.
What a big ol crazy lady. I have never heard that before. I think that at some points in your pregnancy, you may look different than "normal", such as developing acne similar to when you were a teenager or swollen facial features ( I think this is only if you have gained a ton of weight or are retaining a lot of water and are near the end of your pregnancy). Some people look different day to day & they are not even pregnant! I think your co worker is very strange to jump to a conclusion that is definitely not based on facts...and you are not ugly at all. Nor will you be ugly if you are carrying a boy! Pregnant women are beautiful! Even in what you consider your worst moments, those around you are going to see your "glow" & beauty. That is a gorgeous picture of you by the way. The Chewbacca one's pretty sexy as well. haha.
