In addition to the excitement and fun in the preparation for the coming baby, the couples have many other methods for enjoying like determining the different possibilities of pregnancy.

One of the methods of Chinese is in the case of pregnancy. This is known as the Chinese Pregnancy Calendar”, also known as “Chinese Conception Calendar” or “Chinese Conception Chart”. The Chinese Conception Calendar is a method to find out the gender of the baby before his or her birth.

This method is an ancient method and this has been followed from years back. This method of predicting gender was traced from a 700-year old Royal Tomb which was found near the city of Peking in China. There is a belief that the chart was buried in this royal tomb. The original one is displayed at the Beijing Institute of Science. Many people, mainly the Chinese, believe that the original calendar is 100 percent accurate. Accuracy of this is attributed for the use of Chinese Lunar Calendar.

The Chinese Pregnancy calendar works on the basis of the age of the mother when she conceived and next one is the month of conception

The Chinese Pregnancy chart is based on the lunar calendar. There are several sites which provide the Chinese Pregnancy Calendar and the calendar has a chart in which it contains the date and month in a lunar calendar. These dates represent the age of the mother at the time of conception, the month when the mother conceived, and there are boxes which are labeled as “B” for boy and “G” for girl.

These dates are placed in horizontal and vertical positions which allow you to draw coordinates at the point of intersection. If you are still confused, there are step by step procedures given when you are using a Chinese Pregnancy Calendar.

The first step you should do is to take note of the age of the mother during the time of conception.

Second step is that you add nine months to the age of the mother to adjust the calendar.

Third step is to locate this result in the left-hand column in the calendar.

Fourth step is to locate the month when the baby was conceived across the top side of the calendar.

The last step is to follow these two coordinates and spot where they meet and intersect, then look for the corresponding box which is labeled as “B” for boy and “G” for girl.

Even though Chinese people claim that the Chinese Pregnancy Calendar is 99 percent accurate, we should remember that we can not completely say that it is very accurate. Now a days these calendars are just used for fun only. If you are very eager to know about your child’s gender it will be better to consult a doctor and do an ultrasound during the seventh or eighth month of pregnancy for an accurate result.
