Has anyone previously done this and it be wrong? Or has it been right every time for you?

Just wondered how people have faired with this one.

Do you mean like those tables where you just put in your age and the month of conception?

I am not sure they could be that accurate, because say an age where LOADS of women have kids (say, 30) + a month LOADS conceive e.g. December ... surely there would be much more of a 50/50 split?

Sorry I just don't believe that everyone of X age who conceived in Y month has a girl or boy (or even that it's a 90% split).

Found this on another site... looks like it's 50/50 right/wrong. :)

It has been correct for me and everybody I know that has ever checked. I'd guess 15+ people from baby groups etc

The chinese gender scan says boy but the the nurse that scanned me said girl. Now I know that none of these are a hundred percent but my money is on the nurse. Wink

Worked for me last time but based on my hunch this time I think its wrong. However I am basing it on my instincts which are equally unscientific.

Obviously it is bollocks. It will be correct half the time. If you have two kids you have a one in four chance of it being correct both times. I don't know why anyone believes this sort of thing.

Just flip a coin, should be equally correct!
