"How Can One Determine the Gender of a Fetus? 5 Scientific Methods for Fetal Sex Identification"

How to Know the Gender of a Fetus? Here are Some Simple Methods to Identify It.

I. Ultrasound Scanning

This is a method of diagnosing the gender of a fetus through sound waves. It does not have any impact on the fetus. It is also a widely used identification method in obstetrics and gynecology, with an accuracy rate of around 85% to 95%.

II. Amniocentesis

Amniocentesis is primarily a method to check if the fetal chromosomes or neural tube are normal, but it can also determine the gender of the fetus through chromosomes. However, it carries a certain risk of miscarriage.

III. Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)

This is a chromosomal test best performed around the 8th week of pregnancy. It is said to have an accuracy rate as high as 98%.

IV. Saline Infusion Sonography

In recent years, this has been a relatively practical detection method. It is performed at 9 weeks of pregnancy, but the accuracy rate is not particularly high, with many factors influencing the identification results.

V. Blood Test

The gender of the fetus is determined by collecting the mother's blood. Although this test method is not dangerous, its accuracy is not very high, and the error rate is still significant. Of course, Chinese law explicitly prohibits fetal gender identification under non-special circumstances.

In fact, from a personal perspective, there is no need to undergo these identification methods. Firstly, the accuracy is low; secondly, they are troublesome; thirdly, they carry risks. If you want to know the gender of the fetus out of curiosity, you can use the following folk methods to judge the gender of the fetus.

1. Observing the Belly: If a pregnant woman's belly looks round and relatively droopy, it is more likely to be a girl. If the belly is pointed and protruding, the chance of it being a boy is relatively higher.

2. Skin Condition: If the skin during pregnancy looks more beautiful than before, it may be a girl. Conversely, if the skin becomes particularly rough with severe skin problems like pregnancy spots, the chance of it being a boy is relatively higher.

3. Taste Preference: There's a folk saying that if a pregnant woman prefers sour food, it's a boy, and if she prefers spicy food, it's a girl. In fact, this saying has been verified in my case.

4. Food Intake: If you have been pregnant twice, you might notice that when carrying a boy, the mother's appetite tends to be larger.

5. Fetal Movement: Generally, if it's a boy, fetal movements tend to be more vigorous, and vice versa.

6. Walking Posture and Buttocks: If carrying a boy, the walking posture tends to be more exaggerated, and the buttocks may appear droopy. The opposite is true for girls.

These are commonly used folk methods to identify the gender of a fetus, but their accuracy is not very high and should be treated more as a form of entertainment. In reality, regardless of whether the child you are carrying is a boy or a girl, as long as the child is healthy, their gender is not as important. They are precious because they are your own, and they are adorable just by being born.
