According to this I am having a girl (don't know yet btw) and it works for my son who is nearly 3. Says at the top it's 90% just wondering if a straw poll shows that's true!

Give it a try

I'm guessing it's actually right about.. um... 50% of the time?

NoahAndTheWhale · 09/04/2010 12:10

According to that, DS is a girl and DD is a boy

TulipsInTheRain · 09/04/2010 12:11

I have 3 dc's and it was wrong for all three

mumsie123 · 09/04/2010 12:16

It was right for me both times, infact with 2nd DC we really wanted a girl so i waited till my motyh was a girl :-) everyone i know who has done it has worked for them :-) let us know if it was right for you.

fluffyguineapigs · 09/04/2010 12:22

Boy - was right for me. Was right for three friends too, but wrong for one friend

Bleatblurt · 09/04/2010 13:04

Right for my 3 boys.

CazEM · 09/04/2010 14:14

Yeh, mine is right as long as she still comes out a girl in August and they didn't get it wrong at the scan! :D (24 at time of conception, concieved in November!)

CurlyCasper · 09/04/2010 14:39

Right for me - again assuming the scan was correct. Expecting a girl in July.

BedtimeBear · 09/04/2010 15:12

Yep, again assuming 2 scans were correct! Expecting a girl any day now.

plus3 · 09/04/2010 15:17

Wrong both times but the magic ring on a necklace was completely right!

Daynee · 09/04/2010 15:20

I've noticed that some charts go according to woman's age at conception, while some use woman's age at birth....So, which one do we use??

nunnie · 09/04/2010 15:22

DD is a boy, and this one is a boy (too ealry for this one to say if accurate or not), but dd is definatly not a boy.

emsyj · 09/04/2010 19:38

Right for me according to what the scan has predicted.

Raahh · 09/04/2010 19:49

wrong for me twice so far...so am pretty sure i WILL NOT be having a girl this time

del1 · 09/04/2010 20:50

Right for me first time, I should be having a boy again according to this calander? We shall see in June!!
The ring test predicted a boy aswell! Spooky!!

xmelx · 09/04/2010 21:27

Hi do you go by your actual age or add a year for chinese age?

sherby · 09/04/2010 21:33

right for all 3

cinnamongreyhound · 09/04/2010 21:50

My actual age, didn't know anything about a chinese age

RubyReins · 09/04/2010 22:09

I'll let you know in June if the wee one is a wee lass then For some reason I feel sure the baby is a boy but I have no grounds for this other than a hunch. My DH has reminded me that I have been 100% wrong on the baby prediction front for family and friends so he's with the Chinese gender predictor. We tried the wedding ring on a thread thing for a laugh and that said girl, but it also said that my boy cat was having a girl as was my bowl of cereal...

Jellibob · 09/04/2010 22:30

Right for 1st pregnancy - DS
Half right for 2nd pregnanct - B/G twins!

MummaHG · 10/04/2010 20:57

Its been right for my 2 boys & says im not having a girl so watch this space- only 4 weeks until i can find out at 20 wk scan! Its been right for my sister & best friend too

Abubu · 11/04/2010 09:10

I have heard that apparently although you would expect this chart to be right 50% of the time, it is actually correct 90%, so I reckon there is definitely something in it.

It has been right for me both time - twin girls first time, another girl this time - assuming the scan was correct!

Having said that though, my Mum is Chinese and said she has never heard of this chart!

It's right if you use age of mother at time of birth :) at least in my case!
