Achieving pregnancy is without a doubt one of the most cherished dreams for every couple out there, and once they accomplish it, for a great number of them quite a bit of time is spent trying to know the gender of their baby.
Because of this urge on the part of the parents to learn about their babies’ genders, a series of methods have become popular among couples that, while not ensuring 100 percent accuracy, can definitely provide a good approximation of what the baby’s gender will be.

There are also a few other methods that in some way help couples predict their babies’ gender by trying to manipulate it at the moment of conception. Let’s take a look at a few gender predictor techniques, some popular, some exotic and a few just plain odd.
Methods To Predict The Gender Of The Baby During Pregnancy
Balancing the chain: A cute little method started somewhere in Europe. It involves a child – not necessarily the couple’s child –a soon-to-be mom and a small chain with ring or a cross hanging from it.
What the woman needs to do is lie down on bed and have the child shake the chain quite vigorously above her belly and then stop moving his/her suddenly and let the chain slow down by itself until it stops.
If the chain keeps balancing in a round shape, then the baby will be a girl, if it keeps balancing in straight lines, then the baby will be a boy.
Dreams of the mom-to-be: Usually pregnant women tend to have quite unique dreams, but if by any chance one dreams of geometric forms or shapes or objects while pregnant, round shapes will mean a little girl is coming, while square or pointy ones will mean a baby boy is on his way.
Defined cravings: In some cultures in Latin America it is believed that if the mom starts craving for mostly sweet stuff, then that means that the baby will be a little girl, while if she starts craving for acid or salty foods, then the coming baby will be a boy.

Methods To Predict The Babies Gender Before or During Pregnancy
The Chinese board: The Chinese board is perhaps one of the most popular methods for predicting babies’ genders all over the world. It is based heavily on the Chinese calendar and due to the way it works, it is also used a lot by couples to try to actually choose the gender of their baby even before conception.
Now, while this method has some variants around the world, it generally involves the age of the woman and the month of the year in which she got – or plans to get – pregnant. There is also a small table/board that can be printed and that is used to better use/understand this method.
While on this note, it is also worth mentioning that there exists a very similar method of predicting the baby’s gender, which is the Mayan board, which also involves knowing both the age of the woman and the month in which she will conceive. However, while definitely similar in their approach, this method differs from its Chinese counterpart in some aspects, which makes them worth considering separately.
Math games: There are actually two quite known methods that involve some math in order to determine the baby’s sex. One is the Gipsy method, used quite heavily in some regions of Asia and that involves adding up both the age of the woman and the number of the month (1 - 12) in which she got pregnant.

If the result is a pair number, then the child will be a boy, if it is an odd one, then the baby will be a girl. Another math game – of unknown origin this time – involves simply adding up the age of the woman, the number of the month in which she was born and the number of the month in which she got pregnant.
A result with pair number will mean the baby will be a girl, and a result with an odd number will mean a boy is coming.
To sum up, there are certainly a variety of methods all over that people use to try to predict and even choose the gender of their babies.
