Baby Predicting: A Wives Tale Come True?

     For many years, I've heard of the old wives tale of using a needle and thread or a necklace with a charm over the palm of your hand, and by the motion of it, it basically tells you how many children you will have and what their gender will be. However, I've never known which was true since some people said circles meant girl, some said boy, some say you can only use a needle and thread, others say if you use a necklace it has to have a wedding band on it, and others say it can only be done over a pregnant belly.

     Two weekends ago, my friend told me her husband's aunt showed them her method which involved just a regular necklace with a pendant on it and she tested this method on women that already had kids and they were all correct. Then, she did it on my friend and her husband and it showed 4 boys for both of them. I couldn't believe it so I had to try it myself to see how it all works. I did it with my necklace which has two charms on it and held the necklace over her palm. Sure enough it showed 4 boys again. It blew my mind and of course I had to see what I would have someday and it showed one boy and then one girl (yay!) Tried it on my boyfriend, same thing. This past weekend, I told my friends about it at my best friend's birthday dinner and tried it on everyone there. Both couples had the exact same thing and my friend's mom who already had two girls, showed two girls. That's when we knew it couldn't be more real. I tried it on my parents the next day and it showed one girl for each, which is true! Can you say mind blowing?! Okay, so I get it's really weird and sounds crazy to believe a necklace can tell you how many kids you'll be having and what their gender will be, but it's fun to try regardless. It makes for a great game at a baby shower or even at a dinner party or just to kill curiosity. No one says you have to believe it, but it sure is chilling.

     To do this test, you get a light necklace with a charm on it and place it straight above the person's palm. Doesn't matter how still it is, it WILL move on its own. If it swings back and forth, it's a boy, then it should circle to break in between kids or to stop. If it swings side to side, it's a girl. So make sure it circles before telling you the next kid, because a circle does not mean girl, it's just a gap, and then wait for it to completely stop. Give it a try and let me know if it worked right for you or not or what you think of all this. Have fun!
