Gender Myths

For centuries, Moms-to-be have used various wives tales to guess boy or girl.
Here are a few myths...or are these really facts? hmmm

* Carrying high or low. High = Girl and Low = Boy


*Craving sweet or savory? If you're craving sweets, it's a girl.

*The myth goes that if the baby’s father puts on weight during pregnancy - it's a girl.

*The Pendant. Swing a pure gold pendant over the pregnant belly. If it swings back and forth, it’s a girl. If it swings around, it's a boy.

*The Ring Test. Suspend a pure gold ring over the pregnant belly. If it swings left to right, it’s a boy. If it rotates, it’s a girl.

*The Mothers Face. If it's round, full and rosy, it’s a girl.

*Acne. If you have more acne, it's a girl.

*Interpreting dreams of the pregnant woman. Cigars, trucks, snakes, telescopes = Boys.
Tupperware®, keyholes, any fish, almonds, Prada®, Vogue magazine = Girls.

*The Key Test. If the pregnant woman picks up a key from the thin end, then it’s a girl.
*Ancient Chinese Calendar. (Asian legend) Using your lunar age and date of conception, the gender can be “guessed” with 50% accuracy!
