An Unbiased View of Fact VS Myth of Baby Boy or Girl Prediction

Curious about the gender of the tiny tenant who's been subletting your uterus for the past nine months? I believe you are here seeking for the answer, tips and guides. Guess what? You're not alone my friend. Since the beginning of time, expectant parents have tried to guess whether the baby they are carrying is a boy or a girl. Here's the scoop on seven of the most prevalent myths about predicting the gender of your baby together with the fact of each myth. SHAPE & SIZE OF TUMMY MYTH: This myth is based on the English folk wisdom that the boys need greater independence and are carried down below while the girls needs more protection therefore they are carried high up. According to this myth, if you are carrying a girl, it will be high up in the belly and if you are carrying a boy, the fetus will be held low and down. However, there are no scientific studies or experiments to support this myth. FACT: The way you carry your baby is depend on muscle tone. Tummy goes low as the baby gets ready for delivery. The shape of your body, your muscles strength, your pre-pregnancy structure and pregnancy postures define the size and shape of your tummy. Nothing to do with girl or boy! ACTIVITY LEVEL OF THE FETUS MYTH: The activity of a fetus inside the uterus has always ignited discussions among the obstetricians and doctors. This myth is based on an assumption that boys are more active inside the uterus while the girls are more placid. If the baby inside the belly shows more movements then it will be a boy and if it stays calm mostly, it will be a girl. FACT: This myth is also untrue because the movements of the baby inside the uterus depend on many other factors. MORNING SICKNESS MYTH: It is said that if the mother does not experience severe morning sickness in early pregnancy, she is having a boy. Theories such as this one have been tossed around for years, but a recent study added more fuel to the fire. Swedish researchers discovered that 56% of women hospitalized with severe morning sickness ended up giving birth to baby girls. Even if there is something to this study - the findings aren't exactly definitive. FACT: The hormone “Relaxing” of the mother is responsible for nausea and morning sickness. That being said, there are plenty of women who will argue with this method of baby gender prediction. Lots of women who have boys get morning sickness in early pregnancy, while some who have girls don't get morning sickness at all. Nothing is impacted by baby sex. HEARTBEAT MYTH: It is believed that if the heartbeat of the baby is less than 140 then it will be a baby boy and if the heartbeat exceeds 140, it will be a baby girl. FACT: Although this particular myth has been kicking around for decades, there's only one study on the books that supports it: a 1993 study at the University of Kentucky that concluded that the fetal heartbeat could be used to correctly predict the gender of 91% of male fetuses and 74% of female fetuses. Heart rate will keep varying with pregnancy stages. Keep a check that it must not go out of the range (normal fetal heart rate is between 110 and 160 beats per minute) If you are specifically wanting a baby boy or baby girl, you can visit Anne's website at Boy or Girl Predictor to understand more about family planning, and a guide that can be used by anyone, not limited to a particular race, religion, sex, or cultural background.
