If you can't wait another minute to know if you're having a boy or a girl, try these our gender predictor at home.

Finding out that you are

There are reliable home remedies such as using sugar or salt to check whether or not you are pregnant. However, if you are a mother who is curious to find the gender of your unborn baby, try these methods.

The Cabbage Test

In this test, you boil red cabbage, save the water, and mix it with your urine. If the water turns pink, you are having a girl. If the water is purple, it’s a boy.

The Baking Soda Test

Another test that involves peeing on something! Add urine to some baking soda in a cup. If it fizzes, it’s a boy. No fizz means a girl.

The Garlic Test

This old wives tale says if you eat a clove of garlic, and the smell comes out through your pores, it’s a boy. I guess if you eat the garlic, and don’t stink for 3 days, that means it’s a girl? I’m not sure who would sign up for this one!
