The Chinese Lunar Calendar is said to have been around for over 700 years now. Developed by a Chinese Scientist after years of research, many Chinese put a lot of faith in it’s results, many Westerners aren’t so sure. Whether you put much faith in it or not it can be a lot of fun, so just relax and enjoy it.

In order to get accurate results using the Chinese gender predictor, you need to understand the differences between the Chinese Lunar Calendar and the Gregorian Calendar used here in the west.

First you need to know the month of conception, remember conception not birth. Some have mistakenly used the actual birth date and of course this won’t give you an accurate result, so be sure you use the month of conception!

The confusing part for most people is figuring the mothers age at conception, this is her age on the Chinese calendar not the Gregorian Calendar used in the west.

Because of the differences in these calendars, the mother should add nine months to her age at conception to begin with, and if she conceives after the Chinese New Year (it’s a different date between January 22 and February 22 every year) she should add another year. Think of the year as starting on the Chinese New Year instead of January 1st.

Just follow instructions and determine the babys month of conception as well as the mothers month of conception. Now find the corresponding columns and follow each till they intersect, if the square is blue you’ll have a boy, if pink you have a baby girl on the way.

In your seventh or eighth month you can of course have an ultra-sound and know the sex of your baby, but the Chinese Baby Calendar can be a lot of fun to use on your unborn baby or any other children or adults too for that matter.

So have some fun with The Chinese Lunar Calendar, and remember you’re baby is a gift from above no matter what gender it!
