Ancient Methods of Gender Prediction

Long before modern medicine and ultrasounds, people across cultures relied on astrology, intuition, and quirky traditions to guess a baby’s gender. These old-school methods may not be scientifically proven, but they’ve kept generations entertained—and sometimes eerily accurate.

Here are just a few classic ways people have tried to predict a baby's gender:

The Wedding Ring Test: Dangle a ring over the baby bump. If it swings in circles, it's a girl. If it swings back and forth, it's a boy.

Belly Shape Theory: A high, round bump supposedly means girl, while a low, pointy one signals boy.

Cravings Clue: Sweet cravings? You're having a girl. Salty or sour? It’s probably a boy.

Chinese Gender Chart: Based on the mother’s age and the month of conception, this ancient method claims to predict gender with surprising accuracy.

Morning Sickness Myth: Extreme nausea early in pregnancy? Folklore says you’re likely having a girl.

Astrology is just one more whimsical way to explore the question that’s on every parent-to-be’s mind: Will I have a boy or a girl? While the stars can’t offer medical certainty, they do make for a fun guessing game!
