How to tell if a boy or girl?

Published in Pregnancy 1 min read

The most accurate way to know the sex of a baby is through an ultrasound. This is typically done around 20 weeks of pregnancy.

Here are some other ways people try to predict the sex of a baby, though these are not scientifically proven:

  • Old Wives' Tales: Many traditional beliefs and folklore try to predict the sex of a baby based on things like the mother's cravings, the shape of her belly, or even the baby's heart rate.
  • Chinese Birth Calendar: This is a chart that claims to predict the sex of a baby based on the mother's age and the month of conception.
  • Gender Prediction Tests: Some home tests claim to predict the sex of a baby based on the mother's urine, but these have not been proven to be accurate.

It is important to remember that none of these methods are scientifically validated and should not be considered reliable. An ultrasound is the only way to determine the sex of a baby with certainty.
