The Baking Soda Gender "Prediction" Test (just for fun)

Anyone out there try the baking soda test to "determine" the sex?  Obviously it's just for fun, but just seeing if anyone has done it.  We did it last night and it fizzled for me.  We find out what we are having in 3 weeks.  So curious!!! 

Here's what you do: Put a little bit of baking soda in the bottom of a disposable cup (we used a tablespoon) and then add a little bit of your urine to it. If it fizzles like a soda pop, it may be a boy. If there?s no fizzle, it may be a girl.

We were wondering if any urine could make it fizzle so we had two men and two women (not pregnant, obviously) try it last night too.  Yes, we were having lots of fun, lol.  None fizzled.  Interesting!  Just a fun experiment while we wait for our real results.  :) 

Happy Thursday, ladies!

  • I took it at 6 weeks and it said girl. Tried again at 12 weeks and it said boy. It was fun, but obviously it has more to do with the food you eat or something, but it's way cheaper than trying the intelligender.

    Honestly, go back a page or two and you will find at least 2 posts about this.  This topic has been way over-done.

     Welp, sorry to bother!  I guess I don't keep up on the boards well.

  • I'm just hoping it was a disposable tablespoon. Smile

     Jeepers creepers, I was just trying to lighten the day with a fun post and it blew up in my face.  Tongue Tied  I had no idea I would get scolded for posting something fun.  Guess I better watch my posts from now on.  ;)

  • It has been posted about but this is much more fun to read then the "my symptoms went away" posts.

    I haven't done the test but wanted to for fun last night and forgot! 

    Edit: Since it is twins I'm assuming if it fizzled there could still be one girl involved...

  • I'm getting really sick of the people that make nasty comments about a topic already being discussed. If you're tired of the topic, move on with your day and don't bother reading or posting! Not everyone is going to sit there and skim through each page before posting something, so be nice!! On a side note I haven't heard of the baking soda trick for fun so thanks for sharing!!

    THIS. I think everyone has the right to post about things, even if it's already been talked about. It's YOUR own experience and that's the fun of it.

    By the way that sounds like a fun idea, let us know if it's true ;)

    This.

    If you are sick of reading the same things, then WHY DID YOU OPEN THE POST!?!  If you are irritated with it... it is your own fault.

    I said something similar in my UO today!  Glad I am not the only one out there thinking this.  I am on bed rest so on my route to the potty I picked up some baking soda.  It fizzled.  I think it's fun to do stuff like this and then see what we get.  Maybe I will post at baking soda post just to tick someone off!

  • Well if only some of us had nothing better to do then to go pages back to see if a topic has been discussed. How about her topic clearly stated what it was about if you feel it is overdone don't open it.
