I'm sure this has been done, but there have been a lot of intros lately. Just curious if anyone has checked the Chinese gender chart for baby? We are team green this time around but it's fun to check. The chart was right with DS, and says we'll have another boy this go around.

Re: GTKY: Chinese gender chart
Does Oct and Nov have opposite genders. I thought about that too, but either way it says boy.

Yeah, October says boy and November says girl. So I guess either way the chart will kind of be right. Or kind of wrong, depending on how you look at it haha.

We're team green.
However, The Bump says girl. Babycenter says girl with due date and boy with conception. We shall see.
The Bump says girl for me, Baby Center says boy lol. Maybe try that sewing needle on a string thing - another 50/50 shot. I say boy, hubby says girl. Regardless we are team green.
It says I'll be having a boy. This is my first, so it hasn't been wrong for me yet, either.
It's been right for quite a few people I know, though.
I think we're pretty much all taking this as something fun (I know I'm not buying any blue onesies yet!), but if you want to do it accurately, you have to make sure you're using the Chinese lunar calendar. Depending on when you were born, your "lunar" age might be different from your regular age, and the months don't line up quite the same way, either, so you also have to check which month your conception date actually falls in. I found a website once that walked you through all of this, but now I can't find it again.
Also, it's supposedly less accurate near the switchover points. So, if Nov. 9 conception date is the last day of a "girl" lunar month, but Nov. 10 conception date is the beginning of a "boy" lunar month, babies conceived on either 11/9 or 11/10 probably have about a 50/50 shot; it's supposed to be a lot more accurate for babies conceived smack dab in the middle of a lunar month.
I don't know why I know so much about this. I kind of feel a little crazypants now....
DS born at 34 weeks with (surprise!) gastroschisis turned short bowel syndrome.
131 days in the NICU, 7 trips to the OR, G-button, daily TPN....
it says boy - last time it said a girl and I had a boy. So Maybe it works opposite for me
Isn't there another one that predicts the weather the day you go into labor? I did that one last time and I was laughing cause it said it would be foggy, and I said there's never any fog in Arizona. But there was on the day I went into labor. Too funny.
LOL @ crazypants
I'm confused too! Some of them (maybe all of them?) you are supposed to use your lunar age. And I ovulated within days of my birthday (if not on my birthday) so I'm unsure whether I conceived before or after my age changed. Oh well.
Yep- your "lunar age" is not necessarily your real age, and the "lunar month" is not the same number as the real month.

lets you put it in.
With that said - it told me boy last time and my beautiful baby girl says it was wrong!
It says girl this time.
I did it for DD and it was right! It's saying girl again, and I hope it's right because we would love to have two girls!
Grrr! Mine depends on when I conceived. The lunar month ends right around time of conception, so if I conceived before October 14th, it's a girl, after the 14th it's a boy.
Sigh.
