The Chinese baby gender calendar said I was having a girl.....and I had a boy!:)
—Guest jbaill

It worked for me 3 times

I already had my kids, but tried it out to see if it was right, and yes... I am prego with our 4th and it shows a girl, so I know it is 100%

True

Checked the chart and it said I was having and girl then had my 20 week scan the other day and it is a girl.

I believe in the gender chart!!

I've always believed it! When I had my first child it said Boy. I Had a Boy. My second was a Girl. I had a Girl. This is my third. It says Girl. I'm 100% positive its a girl. I'll definitely update as soon as I have my next ultrasound!!!

It's so true!

I've tested 97 people including myself and it has been correct. I have 2 boys and now I'm prego with my third which this chart says its a GIRL, so fingers crossed it'll be right for me again!!!

Didnt work for my 1st or 2nd

It was wrong for my now 4 year old and if the ultrasound tech is right this time then its wrong again..Should have been boys both times and they are girls.
—Guest mommy

My baby!!!!

I am now 32 weeks pregnant and I did the whole Chinese calendar sex predictor and its says I am having a girl and I have had over 10 ultrasounds done and all have said that sure enough I'm having a girl.
—Guest Esmeralda

It works!

I actually use it to conceive the gender I want and its worked 2 times. First with a girl, then with a boy. I will order me another little girl next and the another boy. :-) Its definitely fun!
—Guest I trust it

Not true at all

For both of my children it says boy and I have 2 girls!
—Guest Keri

It worked for my first

I am 22 weeks pregnant again. For my first its a boy which is true..and now I tried this Chinese lunar its says I'm having girl but I don't know yet. Oh I would love to have a girl, as I have a boy already. I have my ultrasound next week and will tell you all.

Worked for my 1st

It worked for my first child... had a girl. Not sure yet what my 2nd one is.
—Guest az mom

It didn't work...

I tried this three different pregnancies and wrong so far two out of three. The first one said girl for a boy, second one said girl for boy and now this one said boy. So I'm just going to guess I'm going to have a girl. Which is fine with me...I need a little girl in this house full of boys!!
—Guest Natalie

It WORKED FOR ME!!!

It said I was having a boy and I am it is amazing how accurate this is!
—Guest Sara

I had a boy!

I looked at the chart to try n have a girl, but conceived on a day that said id have a boy & I did. I have my son. I'm hoping this time it works for having a girl!
