If it goes round and round its a girl
If it goes side to side its a boy

Old wives tale though.

Re: THE NEEDLE ON A THREAD TEST THING.......................

Okay.. So I had to do this (while at work) and the string did not move on the girl who is not pregnant, and it moved side to side on me. The chinese birth charts say boy.. but if I go by the heartrate myth then it is a girl (heartrate is at 171 right now).

Re: THE NEEDLE ON A THREAD TEST THING.......................

The baby's heartbeat rate has always worked for whoever I asked, I would definatly say girl also if the heartbeat rate is 171!

Tammy find out your baby's heartbeat rate and I can take a guest-a-mate of what you are having.

Probably tomorrow I have to go to the tanning salon, drop the baby off at my mom's and I am supposed to go visit my friend with her new baby!!

Then there was always lunch with my girlfriends and their kids but I didnt' talk to them today so I don't even know. I am so confused,

Re: THE NEEDLE ON A THREAD TEST THING.......................

My FMIL did this to me and it went back and forth. I think I am having a boy.

We are not going to find out. Though last week we had a sonogram for the amnio and the technician (who knew we did not want to know the gender) kept referring to the baby as a 'he'.

I never heard the heartbeat thing. Does it matter when it is measured? My baby's heartbeat first measures 160 and is now at 142.
