Gender question for those that know...

bigv44

This is me being silly...

But those of you who know the sex of your LO's; did you use the gender guess chart here on thebump?  I am just curious if they were correct on there gender guess by using the chart provided.

Can you guys let me know? Thanks

I think any gender system is as reliable as flipping a coin, I mean gender dysforia and hermaphridism (or whatever the ism is) aside, there are only two genders by birth.

idk the gender of this baby yet but with DS #1 and DS #2 it was right both times!

It's a 50/50 shot.  I think the Bump should take that silly chart off their page, it serves no purpose.

It was right for my daughter.

Gender and sex are two different things.  The genitalia you child is born with is its sex, not its gender.  But you are correct, any system that guesses at the sex of a baby has about a 50/50 chance of being right.

I don't know what I'm having yet, but the Chinese Gender Chart on TB says boy (the actual lunar one says girl).  We'll see if it's right later.  I'm thinking boy, but everyone else I know thinks it's a girl.  Literally everyone...

The bump chart was not, but some other charts I saw online are (some of them are different!)  For my first it was correct.

Mine was correct for DD#1

Incorrect for this pregnancy
