Gender Tests at Home

Has anyone taken a at home gender test? It would be a fun option I think, but conflicted because I think I might want to wait until the 20 week mark??

  • The sex of your baby doesn't show up in your urine. You could do it for fun but I wouldn't go telling people or buying blue/pink based on the results.

  • I believe most of them state "for entertainment purposes " somewhere in the fine print.
  • I found this video, you probably have baking soda :-)

  • They don't work, so you're not going to spoil anything if you choose to buy one. You're still not going to know until your ultrasound.

  • As gross as playing with pee is, I am temped to try the baking soda test and the red cabbage test.... Won't go so far as to pay for the gender predictor test though!!
  • Yea i kinda want to do the baking soda now just for shits and giggles, but i wouldn't purchase a test. I did out of boredom try a couple of these :https://www.bellybelly.com.au/pregnancy/old-wives-tales-boy-or-girl/

  • Random funny story about the baking soda....I decided to try it yesterday for funsies, and I was SO excited when it did not bubble or fizz at all.  Then when I came downstairs and looked at the baking soda I noticed it had expired over a year ago.  Which means I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have fizzed at all no matter what.  Oh well, I'll have to try it again when I get some new baking soda!

    The only one on the list that was true with me is the cravings. With my 3 girl pregnancies I craved sweets, all sweets. I would make my husband drive to Chili's before they closed for their Molten Lava Cakes. With my son I craved veggies, crab legs and more veggies. This pregnancy I am craving veggies again and have little tolerance for sweets or chocolate. So I am thinking this one is a boy. I have also always had dreams that would tell me if it was a boy or girl, they have always been right. I even dreamt I miscarried and ended up having the mc two weeks later.

    That's funny I have had dreams too about both of my living kids and what they were before birth, never had dreams of the two I miscarried but did have a mc nightmare one night which happened! Crazy. This time I dreamed of a little boy before I knew that I was pregnant...we will see!
