Hello everyone, I just saw a thread about choosing your baby gender. My friend emailed me this link about a year ago. I don't know whether it's accurate or not but I think it's worth a try. Maybe, this could help those
mom's who wanted a baby boy or baby girl.

My husband and I are planning to have a baby boy by next year and we're going to try the chart, I hope it works! Bcuz if not, it's going to be a bummer! :burnout: I really wanted to have a baby boy! :missingto

By the way, have anyone tried any method to have a baby boy? If yes, tell us your story. thanks!

i was REALLY hoping for a girl... instinctively, i knew i was carrying a boy...my boy is now 10.5 months and i would not give him up for ANYTHING! he is the joy of my life(of course along with hubby!)

when you hold your baby, and they look up at you and you know that you are their entire world, the sex of the baby doesn't matter in the least!

good luck!

We saw this chart while I was expecting back in 2002. The chart was accurate for me, but not for my friend who was expecting at the same time.

When we were trying to get pregnant, I followed the methods in the "Take Charge of Your Fertility" book. We didn't particularly aim for a specific gender, but we got the gender the book says we would get during that time.

Your baby is so cute, carang. Yeah, your right. It really doesn't matter what gender is your baby. But being chinese and all that, it gives you a lot of pressure to have a baby boy! :burnout:

Sara:

Thanks for that info. I hope it works for me too. :dance:
 
my husband is chinese. i guess that i was really lucky....i never felt pressure from my MIL or my hubby to have a boy... they both only wanted a healthy baby....

i guess, my MIL thought she was never going to be a grandma and was just sooooooo happy that finally she was going to be, she didn't really care about the sex of the child... :dance:
 
I just wanted a healthy baby and I got a beautiful baby girl. I did look at the Chinese birth chart when I was pregnant to see what it predicted and it said I would have a boy ~ so it was wrong. All the Chinese women I met also thought I would have a boy as I was carrying low and all in the front (you couldn't tell I was pregnant from behind).

Whatever God gives you, I'm sure you will be the happiest person in the world to have your baby in your arms. I always wanted only 2 children, but after having my daughter I now want 4! I am a stay-at-home-mom and there is nothing better than laughing and playing with my daughter all day!
 
The chart is right on me. I didn't use it "before" I get pregnant, but just to be nosey and see if it's correct or not.

I remember looking at the chart when I was pregnant. It was accurate for us.
Have added a poll to this thread, how about we all vote?

I've heard it has to do with the alkali and acidity of one's diet. If you like alkali food like milk, then you'll have a boy. If you like lemon tea, then you'll have a girl. I like lemon tea, and another girl I know likes lemon tea. We both have girls.
 
Rani:

Can I asked you a very nosy question? :missingto I mean, how did you do it? for example, if the chart said that you're going to have a boy this April-May, are you going to "do it" the first or second week of the month just to be sure of the gender? :dance:

As for a chan the same question applies to you too? :burnout:

I am really obsessed of having a baby boy! :cheers:
 
haha....I didn't use the chart when we were trying to conceive. only came across it once we found out we were pregnant...sorry.
 
I got two boys...both by this "virtue":-
First, make sure your husband hits the gym as much as he can, coz he should get as fit as possible. Second, eat lots of meat as opposed to salad (especially your husband), Third, hold on to his soldiers til the day you are most fertile. Fourth, you and your husband (and especially your husband) must not be stressful or travel too much due to work or whatever, as stressed out husband somehow have bigger chance in getting girls.

There are also this interesting website:-

And an interesting gadget:-

Hope these help!
:cheerlead :bluebaby: :banana: :pregnant:
 
Thanks for all the info, ladies! :cheers: I found the shettle's method a bit complicated though. I'll sticked to the chinese birthing chart as it is easier to follow.. :lovedface

Cheers to all the mom's out there! :cheerlead
 
Accurate for daughter # 1.

Wrong for daughter #2.

But hey, they have a 50% chance of being right !

I LOVE being mummy to girls (#2 is due in March 06) and wouldn't change it for the world. But I'm not Chinese, so no pressure. I didn't care what gender I had and didn't do anything special to have girls.

I must confess I find it a bit sad that parents prefer one gender over another. Especially in China where it is clear there will be social problems in the future with such a huge oversupply of boys. Isn't there something like 110 boys for every girl in China? I think this town needs a few more girls !

If you are sure that is what you want, I would stick to a more scientific method like Shettles.
 
The chart was wrong for me but then again I couldn't care less what sex I had I was just beside myself with joy that I actually got pregnant.
 
I was given the chart after I was pregnant, and everyone was taking bets on what I would have. . . I was big as a blimp and carrying low. . . well, it was a boy. A couple of other co-workers were also pregnant at that time, and the chart was also accurate. . . one even scheduled the 2nd baby around the chart's prediction, and what do you know. .. it was right. But at the end of the day, as long as it's a happy healthy baby, that's what counts as far as I'm concerned.
 
Tried the chart out of curiosity

Hi everyone.

I tried the chart and it says boy. I find it interesting because most people I know think that it's gonna be a girl. Wow.. now I'm really curious! I'm due in July and it's gonna be my first baby. :baby:
 
For the chart I should be carrying a boy. I still do not know it now. So let's wait and see if the chart is correct.
I am a Chinese and my hubby is Chinese too. Up to now I have no pressure from my MIL family (btw, my MIL is the only girl in the family, so I guess she will be more open on this issue).
But my hubby and I prefer baby boy. The reason is rather stupid. My husband fears that a baby girl look like him - it will be the worst case - my husband always thinks he is not handsome / beautiful.
On the other hand, I prefer baby boy because most of my friends have baby girls - so boys seems to be more scarce and "valuable" ... ha ha !
