Intelligender

So DH just HAD to buy one because several pregnant friends (I now have NINE pregnant friends) bought them and took them. DH is convinced it is a boy, and low and behold our intelligender said boy.

How many of you have done the intelligender and then the big u/s proved it? Was the intelligender right? Was it wrong? I'm skeptical of the intelligender.....but DH is thrilled.

    Is that the thing where you pee in the cup or something and it tells you boy or girl??  

    That's a load of crock.  If it was that easy to tell gender through your pee why would they have to do an u/s to determine the gender???

    They say it's about 80% accurate.  I think it's more just something fun to do.  It even says on the website don't go decorating a nursery based of the results.

    I only know one person IRL who's used it and it was correct for her. But, I put zero faith in it so I refused to spend the $30ish and just waited until the ultrasound.

    I took it for FUN. Just wondering if anyone else did the same thing. It is accurate for 4 of my friends who did the big u/s. The other five won't know for a few more weeks. I'm not betting on anything until I hear those words from a qualified person. Smile Not some pee in a cup. :)

    My mom insisted on trying this test... Well, it said girl for me, and this baby definitely has a penis!! As long as you aren't taking it too seriously or making any plans yet, have fun with it Wink

    Not to burst anyone's bubble, because I think those things can be fun, but I just wanted to let you know... My brother-in-law has Biology and Chemistry degrees and as much as he wants those things to work for us women, he says there is NOTHING in your urine to tell you what the baby's gender is... otherwise doctors would be having you pee in a cup to test and not getting an ultrasound.  :)

    I'm showing up late to this thread.  But I wanted to point out that the 20 weeks u/s is not just to determine gender.  It's to get specific measurements of the baby's body parts- to ensure the baby is growing and has no abnormalities.  It's not just for determining gender.  Finding out the gender is just a bonus.
