How to Use a Chinese Conceiving Calendar

The Chinese conceiving calendar can be used as a gender predictor by pregnant women who want to predict their baby's gender or those who are trying to conceive a certain gender. The calendar uses the age of the mother at conception and the month that conception occurred in order to predict the gender.

Instructions

1. Determine how old you were at the time of conception or how old you are now, if you're trying to conceive. Look down the left hand side of the calendar, until you find the correct age.

2. Establish what month you conceived or what month you are planning to conceive. Look across the top of the chart until you find the correct month.

3. Find out where these two meet. If they meet on a pink square, you are having a girl. If they meet on a blue square you are having a boy. This chart is said to be over 90 percent accurate.

Tips & Warnings

• The conception ages for this calendar are 18- to 45 years old. This calendar is not intended for those under 18 or older than 45, who have or are trying to conceive.

• If you are trying for a certain gender, find your age and then determine which months would be best to try for a boy or which months would be best to try for a girl. Schedule your "baby making" for those times. You may have to plan very carefully, if you ovulate on the first or last few days of the month.
