For centuries, families have tried to guess a baby's gender from the way a pregnancy feels — the cravings, the carrying, the morning sickness. This quiz gathers the most common of those old wives' tales and tallies which way they lean. Answer at least three questions and we'll show you a pink-vs-blue split.
A quick, honest caveat: none of these signs actually predict gender. Studies put most old wives' tales at right around 50/50 — a coin flip. But they're a wonderful excuse to get everyone guessing, and they turn "we'll find out at the scan" into a game the whole family can play.
When you're ready to actually find out — and let everyone in on it — a live reveal beats a folklore quiz. With Revealcast, guests cast a real pink-or-blue guess from one link and the answer reveals on the big screen for the whole room (and the family dialing in from far away) at once.

Not really. Most studies find old-wives'-tale predictors are right about half the time — the same odds as a coin flip. They're a fun tradition, not a diagnosis. The only reliable ways to know are an ultrasound (usually around 18–20 weeks) or a blood test (NIPT), which can indicate gender as early as 10 weeks.
A NIPT blood test can indicate the baby's sex from about 10 weeks, and the anatomy-scan ultrasound around 18–20 weeks confirms it. Many parents plan a gender reveal party for shortly after the scan.
Yes — it's completely free and just for fun. When you want to turn the guessing into a real reveal your whole party can play, that's what Revealcast is for.
