Chinese Gender chart-accurate for you?

I was just curious to see if that Chinese Gender chart was accurate in predicting the gender of your babies. I am pregnant with my fourth child and don't know what it is yet. On my previous children it was right on each one. For those of you who have checked it out, was it right?

Here's how it works: If you don't know when you concieved, just subtract 9 mo from your due date. If you know your conception date even better.

1. Find your age at the time of conception by looking at the up/down column on the right.

2. Find the month you conceieved and is it marked b or g? There's your answer.

Are you pregnant?

If you're not and you're trying for a certain sex - find your current age, then find a span of either boy or girls and try to conceive during that time period.

Use the chart that poster 2 linked to this board. So I'm message 603 so go to message 2 and there's the link there. I'll look you up now and post again.

To poster 602: Marg I believe -

Since you're 34, if you conceive in Feb you'll have a boy, in March or April a girl, in May, a boy, in June a girl. Hope that helps!

I'm due in July and we think it's a girl

hi and thanks

im not pregnant yet but i was just curious. according to this chart ( ivillage/parentsplace) when i was 31 in june i was to have a girl. i had a boy. but i also had birthday while i was pregnant and turned 32 so if it goes by how old u are when u concieved but really how old u are when u give birth it would have been correct. did i confuse u enough yet???. was it right for u???. there are a few of these charts floating around so i was very curious. do u know of anyone this was right for???

thanks

Yes the chinese calendar hit the nail on the head. I did not check to see if this was true until after I had my 20 wk Ultrasound and knew from the doc that I was having a boy. But freakishly so it was correct, matter of fact I checked 3 different chinese calendars and they were all correct. My DH and I are trying to plan our next preganancy around the calendar so that we can once again be blessed but this time we are trying to have a girl.

Worked for me as well as 5 other babies this year. It did not work for one friend. Pretty good odds.

I am 8 months pregnant and found out at 20 weeks we were having a boy. When I was seven weeks pregnant, I found out about the chinese gender chart...it was correct!!
