Parents are always interested in knowing in advance who to prepare for - their son or daughter. The fact that this state of affairs has always existed is also evidenced by the ancient Chinese table for determining the sex of an unborn child, which, according to legend, is already over 700 years old. It was thanks to her that Chinese emperors planned gender when it was necessary to have an heir. Let's try to figure out how it works and how reliable it is.
Chinese child conception chart: boy or girl
For many parents, having a daughter is a matter of principle. But if you believe the statistics, boys are born into this world much more often, which is why it will be quite difficult for you. In order to know exactly what day you can conceive a daughter, you need to do careful planning, and the so-called Chinese calendar can help with this. This baby gender planning calendar has helped many parents achieve their desired result.
To get pregnant with a girl, you can easily calculate using the table. Many Chinese sages claim that every month, on one specific day, you can conceive a child of a specific gender. Today, their table is becoming increasingly popular, because the percentage of matches is indeed very high.
Below is a table that can help you conceive a girl.
How can you conceive a girl using this table? In the top line is the age of the expectant mother, in the column on the left is the month of expected conception. So, what you need to do: find your age in the table, draw a straight line down, and in the place where the letter D is written, stop your gaze, and now look at the month line. It is at this time that there is a high probability that you may be having a girl.
Japanese girl conception chart
The Japanese gender planning chart is no less popular than the Chinese one. At first glance, the table seems more complicated, and it consists not of one table, but of two at once. In order for you to be able to determine the exact date on which you can conceive a girl, you need to know the date of birth of both the man and the woman.
Look carefully at the first table, find the month of your birth, as well as the month of birth of your spouse, then draw a visual line and find the place where they intersect, be sure to remember the number.
After you have decided on the date, you now need to find out the month; this is done using the second table. Find the month in which you plan to conceive a baby, after that, the number that you got in the first table, at the place where they intersect you will see a certain gender.

Rules for conceiving a girl
In order to definitely get pregnant with a girl, you need not only to use the table, but also follow some simple rules:
- A few days before ovulation, as well as a few days after it, have unprotected sex. The thing is that male sperm cannot survive until ovulation occurs. Planning your baby's gender based on ovulation will improve your chances.
- It is advisable for a woman not to experience orgasm, since during this period a certain substance appears that can kill X-sperm. Try to limit affection and excitement a little.
- Many people believe that in an acidic environment the likelihood of getting pregnant with a girl increases. That is why you need to do a vinegar rinse immediately before sex.
Another good way, but unfortunately not confirmed by science, is nutrition. It should contain as much magnesium and calcium as possible.
It is believed that with a properly created environment, it will be much easier for female chromosomes to take root. However, you need to understand that this is not a completely healthy diet, especially if you are planning a pregnancy. Therefore, before using this method, you need to think carefully about everything.
Modern medical methods for diagnosing fetal sex
Ultrasound examination of the fetus is by far the most famous and widespread diagnostic method. It is performed on every pregnant woman several times, primarily to identify possible abnormalities in the intrauterine development of the fetus. If the fetus is successfully turned towards the sensor, the doctor will also be able to tell the sex of the child. Currently, most public medical institutions are equipped with high-precision equipment, and some commercial centers offer fetal ultrasound even in 3D and 4D format with the ability to record on CD.
However, to determine gender even with an ultra-precise sensor, a pregnancy period of at least 12 weeks will be required. But even at this time, the probability of error is still very high. Only by 16-18 weeks of pregnancy will doctors be able to accurately determine the sex.
Recently, another highly accurate method has become increasingly popular among couples expecting a child: a genetic analysis of the mother’s venous blood to determine fetal cells in her blood.
This study, like ultrasound, is safe, but it can only be carried out for a fee in specialized laboratories.
This test will accurately determine the presence of X (female) or Y (male) chromosomes in the mother’s blood much earlier than ultrasound. But to obtain an accurate result, it is necessary to wait until the 8th week of pregnancy, since only by the specified period will the number of the child’s cells reach the required concentration to determine the sex.
You can also try the modern TestPol. The test is similar to a pregnancy test: the morning portion of urine must be added to a container with a special reagent, and the urine will turn a color from light yellow to deep dark. The color of the urine is used to determine the gender using a special table. You can use this method starting from the 7th week of pregnancy.
Is it possible to conceive a girl by blood?
Despite the simplicity of this method, the success rate is quite high. It is based on the cyclicity of blood changes in both spouses. For example, representatives of the fair sex change their blood once every three years, and men, every four years. If you use it to calculate the gender of the unborn child, then remember that the baby (or rather the gender) whose blood was younger must be born.
If you want a girl, count which parent's blood was last renewed. Planning the sex of a child based on blood assumes: if this is the mother, then you will have a girl. But be sure to take into account the fact that blood change is considered not only from the moment of birth. If you previously had large blood losses, then start counting from them.
Planning the gender of the child (calendar + table)
There are several ways to plan the sex of a child: tables with data on the father and mother, determining the sex of the baby according to the date of conception, as well as by blood type, etc. There is a Chinese calendar for planning the sex of a child, a Japanese chart and other calculators. They are all different, and in order to more accurately determine the gender of the future baby, it is worth turning to each of the methods of planning the gender of the child. Now let's talk about each of them in more detail.
Planning your baby's gender based on ovulation
This method can be used by a woman with a “honed” menstrual cycle. She can calculate the day of ovulation, and thereby calculate the sex of the child. It is believed that the first sperm to reach the egg and fertilize it will determine the sex of the unborn child. That is, if the first sperm is Y (male), then there will be a boy, and if the sperm is X (female), then it will be a girl. Sperm with a Y chromosome move faster and reach the egg within 24 hours. And their “female” counterparts are much slower and can fertilize an egg only after 2-3 days. Thus, if a boy is planned, then sexual intercourse should occur on the day of ovulation, and if a girl, then 3-4 days before it. Planning the sex of a child based on ovulation is best done together with a gynecologist, who can more accurately calculate the menstrual cycle and the time of egg maturation.
Planning the gender of a child by blood
There are two ways to plan the sex of a child based on blood:
- 1. By renewing the blood. The method is based on data about which parent has “fresh” blood. Those. if the father has it, it will be a boy, and vice versa. In men, blood is renewed every 4 years, in women - every 3. To calculate the sex of the baby, the age of the expectant mother at the time of conception is divided by three, and the age of the father - by four. Whoever gets the larger remainder from the division “dictates” the sex of the child. And if the numbers match, then you can expect twins. For example: a woman is 25, a man is 30 years old. 25:3=8.33; 30:4=7.5. As you can see, men have a larger balance, which means there will be a boy. This method of planning the sex of a child will not be accurate if one of the parents has had their blood changed during operations, childbirth or blood transfusions, etc. 2. By blood type. There is a table with data on the blood type of the father and mother, which some couples use when planning pregnancy and the sex of the child. This table looks like this:
This method has no scientific basis, so you cannot trust it one hundred percent.
Chinese baby gender planning chart
This is one of the simplest methods that is most often used when planning pregnancy. The sex of the child is easiest to calculate using the table. Using it, a woman herself will be able to determine the gender of her unborn child. The horizontal line shows the months when a woman wants to conceive a child, and the vertical line shows her age. When crossing, the sex of the child is obtained. Everything is very simple. In addition, the Chinese calendar for planning the gender of a child is considered one of the most accurate - 80% true. It looks like this:
It is interesting that this scheme has existed for many centuries, but how it was created and on what principle, no one still knows for sure. However, planning the gender of a child using a table from ancient China is a fairly common occurrence.
Japanese method of planning the gender of a child
This is the same simple method of planning the sex of a child. It was invented in ancient times. It is known that the Japanese calendar for planning the sex of a child was used by emperors. It is based on data from the months of birth of the father and mother, when crossed, the result is obtained, processed in the second part of the table. In it you just need to find the number and month the child was conceived. Next, we look at the crosses that are located on both sides: some towards girls, others towards boys. The scheme has more than once helped couples when planning the gender of their child. The table looks like this:
The Japanese gender planning calendar is no more accurate than the Chinese one. You can’t believe in it one hundred percent, but as practice shows, most women mainly trust these two calendars: Japanese and Chinese. By the way, you can check them in a fairly simple way. Those who already have children can remember when they were conceived (year, month, mother's age at that time, etc.), insert the data into the table and calculate. If everything coincides, then why not trust the eastern calendars.
There are many more methods for calculating the sex of the unborn child - by the phase of the moon, according to folk signs, and even planning using the French diet. But the fact remains: none of the numerous methods for calculating the sex of a child will give a one hundred percent guarantee of the birth of a boy or a girl. And therefore, for a woman, pregnancy planning should be in first place. The sex of a child cannot be accurately determined, and this is not as important as the pregnancy itself and the birth of a healthy baby.
Even years theory
Many are of the opinion that the sex of the unborn child directly depends on how old his mother is. If at the moment the woman’s age is an even number, then you can conceive a girl in even months; if the number of years is an odd number, then start “making” a daughter in odd months.
For example, if you are currently 23 years old, then in months such as January, March, May, November you can conceive a girl.
There is also another belief according to which you can judge who will be born to you. If a woman in a family is older than her husband, then most likely they will have a daughter, if on the contrary, then they will have a boy. This scheme for planning the sex of a child has not been proven and should be used in parallel with another method.
Important! This method is used only at the birth of the first child; it does not apply to subsequent children.
What does science say?
From a scientific point of view, in order for a girl to be born, the distribution of chromosomes must be correct. Surely everyone knows that they are divided into Y - male chromosomes, and X - female. It is believed that the chromosome that reaches its goal first will take root, and accordingly the sex of the baby will be the same. Male chromosomes have greater mobility than female ones, but they exist much less.
Calculate when you will ovulate and don't have sex for a few days. Then there will be practically no male chromosomes left, and the X chromosomes, on the contrary, will become more mobile and strong.
If you can calculate everything correctly, then in the near future you will definitely have a girl. It is worth noting that such scientific methods are used even in European countries.
Scientific method
So, we found out that the Chinese calendar for determining the sex of a child (in 2021, the table will help us identify the “necessary” months), as well as the Japanese one, are quite reliable, but still raise well-founded doubts. You can, for example, select the best months one and the other and make your final choice on those that coincide, thereby increasing your chances.
But it would be even better to listen to the advice of scientists. Their research is based on simple laws of anatomy. We know that female cells contain X chromosomes, so it will not affect gender. Male sperm contain X or Y chromosomes. The sex of our embryo depends on which of them meets the egg: XX is a girl, XY is a boy.
The scientific method considers distinct X and Y chromosomes
What does this knowledge give us and how can we help ensure that the meeting takes place with the sperm we need? To do this, you need to know a few more points regarding the characteristics of each type. Type Y sperm are very active and fast, they move quickly and reach the egg faster. This means that if sexual intercourse occurs precisely at the moment of ovulation, it will rush forward and reach the egg first. In this case, we are guaranteed a boy.
In turn, X-sperm, although slow, have a very valuable quality - vitality. A very high temperature is observed in the female genital tract, in which Y dies within a day at most, while X lives up to 3-5 days, like the female reproductive cell itself.
Therefore, it is worth carrying out fertilization a couple of days before the cell enters the fallopian tubes. At the same time, within a day the Y-spermatozoa will all die and there will be none left at all by the time our cell appears in the genital tract. And the X sperm slowly continue moving and meet her. In this case, we are guaranteed to conceive a daughter.
If you combine the selected month according to the Chinese table for determining the sex of a child with the calculations indicated above, you will be much more likely to get what you want.
The only thing that needs to be taken into account is that it is important to be able to accurately identify the moment of ovulation. Today this can be done in several ways:
- Calculate using the formula: cycle length minus 14 days (the length of the luteal phase, which is the same for all women).
- Use tests for home use: strips, cassettes, reusable, urine or saliva.
- Maintaining a chart according to rectal temperature measurements.
- Ultrasound examination, when the doctor is able to trace the development of the cell and the moment of its release.
Slavic way
In order to use this method, you will again have to do some calculations. For example, add the mother's age and the number of the month in which conception occurs. If the result is an even number, then a girl should be born, and if an odd number, then a boy. This method can also be called planning the gender of the child by date.
To summarize, we can say that much is just a psychological trick. After all, as you know, exactly what we want most happens to us. If you make various calculations, you will be able to clearly formulate your desire, and you will believe only in it.
Planning the gender of a child can be calculated, but this will not guarantee a 100% result. In fact, the appearance of a child in your family is already a great happiness. Even if the long-awaited girl is not born, but a boy, you still will not love him less. So just rejoice in your wonderful condition and wait to see your baby!
Numerous relatives, friends and acquaintances suggest:
- A wide belly almost always means the birth of a girl, and a sharp belly means a boy;
- If a pregnant woman wants sweets, she is “blurred”, then most likely she will be a girl.
- If the woman is still beautiful and does not gain weight, and also craves salty foods, then most likely a boy will be born.
However, only modern medicine can unambiguously answer this question - currently there are several methods that allow you to quickly and accurately determine the sex of the fetus.
