Old wives tales and gender prediction - any true for you?

[debinaustria]

Just found this and wondered if any of it was true for you? Particularly the hair growth.

(Baby was coy at the scan yesterday)

[scorpio1]

it says 60% girl for me and im having a girl.

[debinaustria]

It's 60 for me too!!

[firststeps]

I had a prediction of 60% girl, and was also predicted girl on the chinese gender prediction calendar. I was convinced myself that I was carrying a girl, but DS2 is now 7 weeks old!!

[MuffinMclay]

53% chance of a girl here. Scan very clearly showed a boy. Interesting to see what comes out.

[pigsinmud]

Chinese gender prediction calendar worked for all 4 of mine .... pure coincidence I know.

Chinese Gender prediction calendar
Wedding ring dousing
Etc etc

All WRONG, DD is now a strapping 4.5 yr old DS

Good job I bought white baby clothes really

[NoMoreHighHeels]

53% girl according to the questions but I had to guess on the heartbeat question and is there really a difference between a watermelon and a beachball??

We don't know whether we are having a pink or a blue one - left it as a surprise, so we'll see in a few weeks. Everyone keeps saying it's a girl though!

Ive just done the test and it says 69% girl, we are def having a girl had 3 different scans and a 4d scan xx

[snooks]

Mine said 60% chance of a girl, we found out at the 20 week scan that it is so correct here. Chinese predictor thingy was wrong though....And what's putting weight on your backside got to do with it

[missvicki]

Just did the test 60% chance of a boy. We haven't found out the sex yet might ask at 30week scan, but mothers intuition makes me think i'm carrying a boy so will be intresting to see!

[scaryhairycat]

60% girl for me, which is right as the scan revealed it is a girl. Chinese calender said girl too.

[Mitchell81]

53% girl, chinese calendar says girl,completely different pregnancy than with DS but 20 week scan said boy. So I presume all these are wrong.

[Twiglett]

oh barf .. it's in rhyming couplets

[Mumblesmummy]

Mine was totally wrong, it said girl and I'm deffo having a boy.

[brendar75]

I answered this as for my last pg symptoms (when I had DS) and it came out as 53% girl - wrong! The Chinese gender predictor was wrong for him too. Hmm, maybe I can see what they say and know it's the opposite?

[ThePFJ]

It says 73% Girl for me. And the scan was definate on it being a boy. The nurse said there was no mistaking 'him'. (31 weeks pregnant now)

The only thing that has worked for me and several people I know is the heartbeat one.

[bigboydiditandranaway]

What's the heartbeat one then, i'm very intrigued(can't believe i'm eating toast at this time in the am or even up!)

[bigboydiditandranaway]

What's the heartbeat one then, i'm very intrigued(can't believe i'm eating toast at this time in the am or even up!)

[Egypt]

the only thing that is consistent here is that it seems to be telling everyone - girl!

[Niecie]

Boys have slower heartbeats (about 140ish) and girls are slightly faster at 150ish.

I did once read why there was a scientific reason why this might be case but still not sure if it isn't total hogwash though!

As I say, it worked for me and people I know. However, to be certain of my results I would have to have a girl and she would have to have a higher heart rate for me to be convinced and that is taking scientfic research a bit too far.

[kayzr]

I did it out of memory and it says I was having a girl. DS is now 10 months old.

[BabyEllsBells]

53% boy 47% girl too close to call lol

[sleepdeprivationandme]

Did it from memory also - 60% girl. Had a boy.
