According to legend, the Chinese birth gender chart is based on statistics taken from women inside the Forbidden City during the Ching Dynasty. Around 700 years ago, a Chinese scientist discovered the birth gender chart buried in a royal tomb. The original gender chart is now kept in the Institute of Science of Peking. Supposedly, it's 99 percent accurate!
Note and disclaimer: This birth gender chart gives values only for women who were between the ages of 18 and 45 when they conceived. This gender chart is for entertainment purposes only. Pregnancy Today assumes no responsibility for predicted results.

Gender selection is a hot topic, and so are silly prediction methods. The following formula makes some pretty impressive claims all over the Internet, so, just for fun, we decided to make it available to those of you who are trying to conceive, or for those of you who want to predict the gender of the baby you're carrying right now. You can also check past conceptions, if you are sure about the month and your age at the time of conception.
Some of the Internet sites that house the Chinese conception chart make claims about its origin and accuracy rates. But, legends tend to get stretched as time wears on, so we will post what we've heard and let you decide if it's believable or not:
"This chart is a statistic chart from the women inside the emperor's forbidden city during the Ching Dynasty."
"A Chinese scientist discovered this chart which was buried in a royal tomb about 700 years ago. The original is kept in the Institute of Science of Peking. The accuracy of the chart has been proven by thousands of people and is believed to be 99 percent accurate!"
That's a pretty high success rate! Of course, we don't believe it could possibly be that high. Still, we'd love to know if this prediction method worked for you.
The predictor predicted a Boy for me and it is a boy!!! I got it right for when I checked with my mom's three times and it came out right each time. All the other chinese predictors got it wrong. They all said girl.
I did get it wrong for my sis in law. But I realize why, because she had her baby early in the month and that is what skewed the dates. She must have conceived the month before not that month. So people who get theirs wrong should think about that.
Because I have checked with all my friends and it was right everytime.
this was right with both my boys i already have
I have a little wifetales test for you.... Look at the hairline on the back of your kids neck. If the hair goes in a 'V" shape the next child will be BOY.. If the hairline goes straight across the next will be a GIRL. This has wokred out with about 20 families I have tried this with, its pretty cool.. So if you want a girl after a boy, you want theier hairline to be straight!!
This was wrong for me it said I was having a boy and I had a girl. That was 6 years ago. I am gong for the girl months this time. Maybe I will have a boy.
this chart was right for my 4 children that I already have...it better be right this time too!
