Chinese Gender Chart (also asked on 1st tri board)

jmuangel8 · April 2011

If you used the chinese gender chart correctly by using your Lunar age and Lunar month you concieved was it correct for this baby or previous babies you've had?

PhoebeJones3 · April 2011

I'm a first time mom, so obviously I have no idea quite yet.

I didn't know that you were supposed to use your lunar age and lunar month of conception.

Does it tell you how to figure those out?

jmuangel8 · April 2011

There is a website I found I think called the laboroflove.com or something similar to this that will calculate it for you. It asks for your birthday and month of conception and approximate day and it tells you what gender your baby may be and what Lunar age you are and Lunar month you concieved is.

It told me I should have had a boy so it was wrong for me.

The only think that can accurately predict the sex of your child is knowing the genotype of the exact sperm that fertilized your egg. there are many different theories, but it matters not when you were born or what day you conceived. A more scientific method exists for those who chart, but that is still a crap shoot.

It is just for fun ladies, - I'm sure most of us know that its genes that make up little boys and little girls. And yes, its the father's sperm that is the deciding factor - since we only carry XX, we can only give one X to the baby - the males carry XY so it depends if the sperm is X or Y. That technically is the deciding factor.

But Its always fun to be able to do little predictions and test.

I don't know. Given how many times people post on here asking how accurate these are, I sincerely wonder if they realize that none of the criteria you enter into these predictors has anything to do with the sex of your baby. If they DID know that, they'd know that the predictor is not accurate at all and they wouldn't feel the need to ask a group of strangers about it. Posts like this make me doubt posters' intelligence.

Using the Chinese gender chart that is here on thebump, with my first it was correct. She was a she.

Kath1424 · April 2011

It was right for me both times..not finding out on #3

This link does the work for you. According to the bump chart I am supposed to have a boy, according to the linked chart we are having a girl. Guess we will find out in 19 weeks.

I never knew that you were supposed to use your lunar age. I had always just used my age. With that it said a boy, when I went back and did it with my lunar age it said girl, which is correct. I'm having a girl.

Tikat · April 2011

Jup- We actually used to it up our chances of conceiving another girl and it worked

That is the same boat I was in! On the Bump it doesn't specify that you are supposed to use your lunar age, and that is how its set up.

But, when I went back through and did it again it said girl!

I want a girl so badly, but my husband wants the typical boy first, then girl.

I have nothing against boys, but since they run rampant in my family, I'd like to have two little girls. Oh well - its already be decided and there is nothing I can do about it!

vab1216 · April 2011

It was wrong for me both times!

chillyupnorth · April 2011

I seriously doubt that every 27 yr old woman who conceived in November is having a boy. Sorry.

MorgansMommy1 · April 2011

It was correct for DD but it was wrong for this baby. Said "she" was supposed to be a "he".

But oh well, 2 daughters will be fun!!!

This. My SO always (jokingly) complains that I didn't give him his boy first to which this is always my response. lol

The gender chart on thebump said I was having a girl, which is right. The lunar one of laboroflove.com said a boy *shrugs*

michellechacon · April 2011

This is my first, it was right for me... I'm having a Girl.

pinkpigeon · April 2011

I used it and yes it was accurate for me. Chinese predicted I would have a girl and yep -- she's a girl!

But then again the gender chart has a 50/50 chance of being right... good odds...

amdraza · April 2011

It was correct for me!

mandyhall2882 · April 2011

Chinese gender chart did not work for me lol. I did it for fun anyway. Said I was having a boy and there is a little girl swimming around in there.

JenJune3 · April 2011

It was right on both my children

The one on the Bump was right for me, but the one linked above was wrong for me.

This has always been my concern/curiosity with gender prediction charts.

However, the link that was posted, they ask for the conception month and day. What if you don't know the specific DAY you conceived?

ETA: I tried the link posted above and it kept saying girl (we were told last weekend it is a boy, but only 85% certainty). I changed the days a few times, because we are unsure exactly when we conceived and it kept saying girl.

Soon2BMrsN · April 2011

It was accurate for me the first time. This time, it predicts a girl.

ETA: I just tried the labor of love link... and it said boy. Guess it's a crap-shoot.

elvirarivera08 · April 2011

It was wrong for me. It said I was going to have a boy and when we the Ultra Sound day came in...it was clear as day that we are having a girl.

Mommy2Bells · April 2011

It was correct for my first one. It said girl and that's what we had. This time it's saying boy, we'll find out soon!

lololoco · April 2011

wrong for both my kids

othello888 · April 2011

There were 2 tests on the labor of love site. One said boy and one said girl. The one on the bump was right for DD.

Elizabeth1017 · April 2011

As far as the one on the bump it was wrong for all four of my kids. This time it is saying "girl" so we will find out if it is wrong or right in July!
