Chinese Gender Predictor Calendar

Chinese Chart – Lunar Calendar, which bases its predictions entirely on the mother’s info. Really!? Like the father has nothing to do with it — so what does that say? Yeah, it's definitely not very politically correct or gender-neutral. But hey — I thought it would still be fun to include it anyway.

This ancient Chinese pregnancy lunar calendar was allegedly discovered by a Chinese scientist about 700 years ago in a tomb near Beijing. It is a gender predictor, and it’s supposed to determine a baby’s gender based on the mother’s age and the month of conception! This conception chart works only if the mother is between the ages of 18 and 45 at the time of conception. Some sources say this Chinese Conception Chart is 93% accurate, while others suggest its accuracy is only slightly better than 50/50. Some people say that to increase the chances of accuracy, you should make sure that the month right before you plan to conceive shows the same baby gender as your target month. For example, if you are 24, conceiving a girl in November may have a better chance than trying for a girl in May. Similarly, if you are 25, conceiving a boy in November may have a better chance than trying for a boy in June.
