Sure, your doctor can tell you the sex of your baby, but where's the fun in that? Even parents who choose not to find out like guessing whether they're expecting a boy or a girl. That's where these baby gender predictors come in. After all, even highly unscientific methods have a 50/50 chance of being right.
If you constantly reach for meat, cheese, or other salty foods, then you'll be having a boy, according to this old wives' tale. Yearning for sugar and spice and every sweet thing in the store? The baby must be a girl.
According to the Mayans, gender prediction comes down to calendars and basic math. Just take a look at how old you were when you conceived and the year it happened. If both numbers are either odd or even, you're carrying a girl. If one is odd and the other is even, it's a baby boy.
It's healthy and normal for a pregnant woman to gain weight, but has your partner been packing on the pounds? You may be expecting a girl. Are both of you nauseous? Some cultures believe if the dad is experiencing morning sickness too, you're expecting a boy.

According to one Chinese gender test, your fetus is a boy if his right hand pushes on the left side of your belly after the seventh month. Opposite side means you're carrying a girl.

You only need two pieces of information to determine your baby's sex using this Chinese gender predictor: your age and the month your baby was conceived. Let us calculate it for you!
Put some baking soda into a disposable cup, then pee in it. If the baking soda fizzes, it's a boy. You can also put salt on your breast before you go to sleep. If it's moist in the morning, you're having a baby girl. Reality check: Any acidic liquid will fizz when mixed with baking soda, and chances are the salt will fall off into your sheets by morning. It's still fun.
If this old-fashioned gender test is to be believed, a little boy will show interest in your pregnant belly if you're having a girl. If he doesn't seem interested, you're having a boy.
Does it feel like your face is getting rounder by the hour? According to this traditional Latin American belief, you should get ready for a daughter. If your face is unchanged, but your behind is growing big and round, you'll have a son.
For this one, you'll need access to a garden and a tolerance for bodily fluid. Go out and plant two corn seeds. Water them with your pee. If the ears of corn that grow are black, it looks like a boy is on the way. Yellow corn is a sign that you'll have a girl. Either way, don't eat the corn.
Have someone tape a spoon under one chair and a fork under another without you seeing which is which. If you sit on the chair with the spoon, you're having a girl. The fork? It's a boy.

Can you influence the sex before you conceive? These elaborate and bizarre methods say yes. For a boy, have your partner sit on the roof near the chimney for several hours before intercourse. Pining for a girl (and own a buggy)? An old American myth claims you can shake off your baby's "extra equipment" by taking your buggy over rough roads.
Note: We're using the word gender here because people often use this word when talking about their child's sex. However, the two are not the same. A child is generally assigned a sex at birth based on biological characteristics, such as their genitals. But their sex designation may not match the gender identity (based on feelings and behaviors) that they assume later.
