Does science support those sayings? Can math reliably predict your baby’s gender, even sooner than an ultrasound?

Read my article to learn whether you can figure out the odds, or should you just look up a “Chinese baby gender predictor” online?

Feel free to tie your wedding ring on a string, and dangle it over your tummy. That’s an experiment from folklore, rather than math from statistically significant observations.
