For whatever reason, many people just can not wait until the birth of their child to find out whether they have a girl or a boy. It is true that knowing the gender of the baby before the birth day can have it's advantages such as knowing which color clothes to buy and whether to paint the nursery pink or blue, while on the other side of the coin, not knowing the sex of the baby up until the birth can give the woman something to wonder about while going through the pains of labor. In the modern world the most popular way of determining the sex of the unborn baby is by an ultrasound scan, this method is very reliable and with modern technology and the new 3-D scanning systems you are able to see quite clearly whether the baby it male or female. Before we had these wonderful scanning systems the methods to determine the sex of the baby within the womb was done in some very strange and peculiar ways, the use of dowsing was probably one of the most popular ways, basically this consisted of a stick or rod with a piece of string tied to the end from which a ball was attached, this would then be held above the womans belly and the gender of the baby was determined on which way the string and Ball rotated. While this may seem very strange to many of us, nothing is more peculiar than the current flood of websites that are featuring the Chinese birth calendar. Over 700 years ago a very strange and intriguing discovery was made in Beijing, the capital of China. This discovery was a simple chart that apparently predicted the gender of a baby even before conception, The Chinese birth calendar calculates its results based upon the woman's age and the month of conception, by drawing two straight lines 1 horizontal relating to your age and one vertical from the month of conception, the place where the lines meet is the predicted result of the gender of the baby. While many people believe this chart to be extremely reliable in its predictions, (some believing it to be as much as 90%). we strongly recommend that it only be used for its fun factor, although the chart is currently on show at the Beijing Institute of science, there is no scientific evidence that we know of that can give any support to the workings of the Chinese Birth Calendar. It is somewhat quite hilarious that the Chinese birth calendar predicts that a 21-year-old girl who conceives during the months from February to December will have a baby girl; this is quite a remarkable prediction that somehow seems a little far fetched to us. Just remember, being pregnant should be a wonderful and fun time for all mums-to-be so we recommend that you have a little fun with this chart and don not take it seriously.
