A special sensor examines the belly of a pregnant woman - the image of the baby is displayed on the screen in real time. This method was invented to detect abnormalities in the development of the fetus and control its growth. Unfortunately, to find out who will be born, you can not earlier than the first perinatal screening, and this.

The most accurate way to determine the sex of the fetus is to take samples of amniotic fluid for analysis. They contain the genetic code of the embryo, by which it is possible not only to determine the sex, but also the presence of chromosomal abnormalities.

Counting by ovulation date
This method is especially suitable for those who know exactly the day on which fertilization took place. With intercourse on the day of ovulation, the chance of becoming pregnant with a boy increases. If intercourse happened a few days before this day, then most likely there will be a girl. This is due to the better vitality of spermatozoa with XX chromosomes. Male sperm contains XX and XY chromosomes and what the sex of the unborn child will be depends on the rate at which the sperm reaches the egg.
Chinese tables
The ancient rulers and wealthy people of China have always rejoiced at the birth of a son. After all, the son was traditionally considered the heir. They instructed the sages to calculate the probability of the birth of a boy or a girl. Thanks to them, now you can just look at the table and find out the result. The accuracy is 80%.
Definition by the shape of the abdomen
Long before the invention of ultrasound, midwives could accurately determine gender. Their experience has been passed down from generation to generation. With a small, rounded, pointed tummy, boys are born. If the belly is large and swollen, then more often a girl is expected to be born.
