1st Trimester

just did the pendulum 'gender' test

 I did the pendulum test ( hold chain/pendulum above belly if it goes in circles it?s a girl; if it goes back and forth it?s a boy) and the chain immediately started spinning in fast little circles (and I was stiff as a board) ! ALSO fun to note: my Chinese gender chart says GIRL as well (and was accurate with my twin boys) I usually don?t buy these wives tales but just thought I?d do it for FUN only. Anyone else done this and it was RIGHT ? ( or wrong...I wanna hear both!) Stick out tongue

Re: just did the pendulum 'gender' test

  • I tried it and it went both ways haha but the Chinese Chart says a girl and that is what I'm hoping for
  • The Chinese gender chart was right with my son. This time it's saying boy too.
  • Loading the player...
  •  Were you holding it steady?! LOL Fingers crossed for your girl! Me  too!     :p                                                                                                           
  • I'll admit it, I totally plan on doing this :p

  • My friend showed me the pendulum gender test about 2 years ago and it said I was having a girl then a boy. She did it again just recently to me and it said the exact same thing!

    She has done it for years and declares it has never been wrong, in fact the pendulum said her sister-in-law (who was quite content with her two girls already) would actually have 3 girls. 4 years later, the 3rd Oopsy baby girl was born!

  • I don't have a pendulum, but are there are any other gender predictor games?  We're really hoping for a boy.  The Chinese gender chart said it would be a boy, but it'd be fun to try other predictors.

    Can't wait to meet my baby boy!
  • lol That is entertaining. MY chinese gender chart says girl and I got little circles. I wish! It will be entertaining to see what it says. I want a girl (not as bad as a healthy baby any way!). Too funny!

  • Those OWT are so funny. My cousin swears by the pendulum test. She says every single time she has done it, it has never been wrong. LOL! I might have to call her up later in this PG and see.

    The Chinese Gender Chart was wrong for me the first time. It said DS would be a girl. This time it says boy. SO, we shall see....

  • Can you do it with a long necklace chain?

    As happy as can be as our family of 3!!! Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker BabyFruit Ticker
  • I've always wanted to try that - so I just did it after I read this post and it was going back and forth. fun!

  • I've used the pendulum test(s) on multiple friends, relatives, etc. It has never been wrong. I would estimate it used over 10 times. The Chinese Gender Test says that I'm having a boy (I'm hoping it's wrong) I know that sounds awful, but I really want a girl. I feel like if I have to be this sick all the time it better be a girl!

  • What do you use for the pendulum?  And- how does it tell you how MANY kids?  I'm confused!

    They say you can also put your wedding ring through a string and hold it over your belly and if it swings back and forth your baby is a girl. If it swings around in a circle then it is a boy.

    As for the Chinese Calender It read girl for my son (wrong) and boy for my daughter (wrong). Although it was correct with our last baby girl, now this pregnancy it reads girl. so...idk.

    Although their fun to try it all bottoms down to that old number 50/50 chance.

    Good Luck! 

  • The pendulum test I did was a bit different, though, using the wrist instead of the belly. You take a chain through your wedding ring and hang it above and on one side of your wrist (arm is out in front/wrist side up). Then bob/dip the chain/ring on the other side of the wrist, then back to the side you started on (5x). Then hover the chain/ring over your wrist facing up. If it circles its a girl, if it goes back and forth its a boy. Then do the bobbing again. See what the chain does. Bobbing again.... Once the chain/ring doesn't circle or go back and forth over your wrist anymore - that's how many kids you will have.

    Who knows if its true, but its fun to play!

  • I'm willing to bet that... either method is right 50% of the time!

  • My grandmother did a gender test that is similar to the "wrist" one.  She takes a pencil with an eraser and sticks a needle on top of the eraser.  Then she threads the needle and holds the string between her first and middle finger of her right hand, with the thumb on top, pinkie on bottom and lets the pencil dangle down. (have no idea if that makes any sense at all).  Then the person she is "testing" lays her left arm, palm up on a table.  She holds the pencil steady above the wrist and the pencil will start moving on its own.  If it swings across the wrist (girl??) and if it swings up and down the arm (boy??)  Sadly she can't remember which is which anymore.  And if it swings diagonally-- twins!!  There should be a brief pause between each prediction to show how many children there will be.  She had tried this on almost all members of our family and she was right every single time.

  • my family is a firm believer of this! BUt we do needle and thread and you either hold it over your palm or your belly button. Side ti side is boy, circle is girl and it tells you every pregnancy you've had. I've had 5 pregnancies (2 M/C's) and it went line (that would be my oldest son), the circle (my MC), line again (my second son), then circle (my last MC) and then circle again then just stopped! It's crazy how it does the same thing over and over again and never changes!!! But I do it just to please my family, I'm not painting any rooms until the doc goes "It's a _____" lol
