Does anyone know any old wives tales about pregnancy??? I know there are some that are supposed to tell the *** of the baby. I’m just wanting to do it for fun……
What’s the ring thing??? And I heard that if you put a needle on string and old it over your stomach it will swing a certain way???

I have heard a few. Like, if the baby has a higher heart rate, then its a girl. If you are carrying high, its a boy. If you are carrying low, its a girl. Then, if you break out, you are having a girl, because your girl steals your looks. But, if you have pretty skin, you are having a boy, because boys make their mommys pretty. BUT, they are just “old wives tales.” it is fun though!!

None of them were right for me.
Heartbeat over 140 its a girl, lower its a boy.
Girls take beauty, boys give it (acne, circles under eyes)
Lots of morning sickness, girl. None, boy.
i don’t remember the bump ones, I’m still not really noticable…

If u eat certain foods before u become pregnant u can tell whether it’s a boy or a girl.

If you carry high its a girl; low its a boy. It isnt always true but I have found that most of my friends turned out right when I guessed them this way.

I got one If a girl child likes you you’re having a boy and if a boy child likes you you’re having a girl that’s what my grandma used to say

If you can’t tell from the back boy.
Basketball shaped boy. All over weight girl
Acne boy (due to increased testasterone) Clear face girl
Craving sweets boy- healthy food girl.

i had it done to me and i can’t remember how it went. i was told by a friend that i was going to have 4 kids. a girl, a boy, a girl, a boy.
i have a girl, a boy, and a boy. i don’t know if it’s truthfull or not but, it’s fun to see what happens.
I FOUND IT!!
hold the ring on a chain where you hold it over the palm of your hand and if it swings in circles its a girl and its it swings side to side its a boy.

My answer is not for fun but for real.
When I was pregnant, I wanted a girl badly, but an old lady told me that I would have a boy, because of the shape of my belly, and she was right. As you have probably noticed, boys and men have pointed bottoms while girls and women have round bottoms. When the baby is lying in the normal position before birth, the bottom points upward. Have a good look at any visibly pregnant woman and you will be able to see whether that bottom is pointed or round. I have done so since I gave birth in 1964, and my predictions have been correct 100% of the time, just as was the prediction which that old lady in Vancouver was 44 years ago.

Ive heard you can use either a needle, or your wedding band on a string, and depending on if it swings in a circle or rocks back and forth will tell you if its a boy or a girl.. I forget which direction is which tho.
One person told me you can get a few spoonfuls of drain-o and add some of your pee, if it turns pink, its a girl, if it turns blue, its a boy.. I do NOT reccommend that you try this method tho, the mixture of the ammonia in your urine with the chemicals in the draino could possibly cause dangerous fumes.

i heard that if your hair gets lighter its a girl and if you eat yougurt or something you’ll have a boy. hah

I heard that if you crave sweet foods it’s a girl, if salty it’s a boy… I’ve craved sweet foods every pregnancy and had 3 girls, I’ve craved sweet foods again this time, it’s another girl. Also, that if you carry more around the hips it’s a girl, rounder (basketball) belly it’s a boy, guess where I’m huge everytime… that’s right, the hips.
