For Fun: Gender Predicting With Baking Soda

in 2nd Trimester
So...has anyone else tried the ol' baking soda and urine gender prediction test? You put a tablespoon of baking soda in a cup and then your urine...if it fizzes, boy, if it does nothing, girl! With my first I did the intelligender test (it was correct, we had a boy and it said boy) and "supposedly" it's based on the same premise of the acid in the urine...anywho. I did it last week and had nothing...girl...I'm crossing my fingers it holds true!! I have a 50/50 chance, haha. Has anyone else done this for fun? What were your results? You can do this with Draino too, but, baking soda is cheaper and I had it in the house, haha!!

    I did this way back when I was 8 or so weeks. It fizzed, but I'm having a girl, so it didn't work for me.

    I tried Draino and baking soda and both read as boy.  We're having a girl.

    I did it around 14 weeks or so, and it fizzed slightly.  It was borderline enough that I didn't think it was conclusive fizzy either way.

    We're having a boy.

    I did it around 13w and it fizzed... We're having a boy :)  Worked for me, or else I just got lucky it fizzed.
