BABY Gender Predictors!

thanks to the NIPT test, we now know the the gender of our baby (also that the baby has been cleared for any neural tube defects and trisomy issues)!! woohoo

Let's see what the predicted results are...

1) Babycenter Gender predictor

We're having a boy!

2) Labor of Love Chinese Gender Predictor (this was accurate for almost all my coworkers!)

we're having a boy!!

3) Ramzi Theory

inconclusive. the tech said the baby was 'central'

4) The Bump

It's a boy! 

5) Old Wives Tales

57% Boy and 43% girl!

We're having a........

It's a GIRL!

New article today on female infanticide or fetacide,

aka abortion or death of baby because

 IT'S A GIRL!

Even the trailer of the documentary makes me sad and angry!

maybe i'm naive, but is this common in Canada?

an editorial piece on the CMAJ recommends that sex of baby should be concealed until 30 weeks into pregnancy- READ editorial HERE

Read another article about it from THE PROVINCE- Asian Abortion Trend

few ideas come to mind:

1) my rights to my info is being concealed by the medical community-  my body, my baby, my pregnancy!

2) anyone who wants to know can just easily cross the border and pay for the ultrasound or a private test to be done

3) after 30 weeks, who's to stop someone from having an abortion anyways?

4) who's to stop the killing of the female baby AFTER it's born? (see youtube vid- 8 daughters dead?!)

5) makes me so mad and disgusted

6) who do these people think are going to give birth to babies? men? WOMEN give become pregnant and give birth to babies 

It's a BOY for J & J!

Although it was a surprise gender reveal to all, the babycenter chinese gender predictor which used the lunar age for mom was WRONG!

But this one, which used her real age, was right --> Labor of Love Chinese Gender Predictor

Addendum: Baby's name is Jack!

Good ol' Chinese Gender predictor!  This is the one I actually believe (through many correct results amongst coworkers)!

1) Due Date: January 24, 2012
2) Birthdate:: August 29, 1982

The Chinese chart says you're having a girl!

We converted the dates for you: Your Chinese lunar age at pregnancy was 31 and the Chinese lunar month in which you conceived was September. Find the place on the chart where these values meet – it reveals your baby's sex!
