    Chinese Gender Calendar Predictor? Were they right for you? All say boy for me but hoping for girl?

    Chinese Gender Calendar Predictor? Were they right for you? All say boy for me but hoping for girl?

    The justparents chinese predictor says girl but all the other sites seem to indicate boy?

    Just wondered which sites were correct for other people?

    Some Chinese Gender charts say boy this time, but confirmed girl, and a very few others said girl and she is indeed a girl.

    I do not believe it because most (80%) of the charts show DS1 and DS2 BOTH being girls and they are both little boys, I assure you!

    Nope, wrong for me with DD2....my mom actually did it for me and my siblings also and it was wrong every time. I think it's just for fun. Try not to obsess with these OWT and such, they can suck you in and get you upset when in reality, there is nothing that points to your baby's gender other than what is between its legs in the ultrasound.

    I have absolutely zero belief in the chinese gender chart, and here's why.
    Culturally, the chinese are probably the culture that (historically) has had the greatest preference towards male gender, the strongest desire to create males and only males.
    Having studied asian history (or even with just limited knowledge of the cultural history and practises) it well known that families would go to any lengths, and try any measure's to try and conceive only males.
    This chart claims to have a 80% effectiveness (some places even quote 90%)
    So if the chart were true then we would have seen a HUGE change in shift of gender in asian cultures historically - but we havnt, they have, and always will, follow the very close to 50/50 split as everyone else in the world.


    Its harmless fun But i wouldn't put carry any hopes or dissapointemnts as a result of the chart!

    We have done tons of polls on this site and IG and it's always been 50-50 on every site. There is nothing to them beyond sheer random chance. You can find one that happens to be right for you and then ask 10 other people and find out it's wrong for half of them.

    The Chinese Gender Predictor made me really sad with DS 3 (all symptoms and OWT pointed to girl and even tho I didn't really believe in them even then, it felt like a 'SIGN' when it came up pink as well) and as a result I really hate those things!!

    I was also gonna say right on, Lassie! That is excellent logic!

    Might I add that the Asian culture's preference for males is a really terrible thing on many levels. For obvious reasons, it freaks me out what is going to come about when the current generation of mostly male babies grows up. Not to mention I'm not a big fan of aborting/killing/orphaning baby girls left and right.
