My Intelligender Results Are In!

There's no fun in waiting... At least that's how I see it. And while I'm pregnant I figure I might as well enjoy as much pregnancy stuff as I can cause you can't go peeing in random chemicals for fun when you're not pregnant now can you?

The mothers of Intelligender are so sweet to give me another opportunity to talk to you about their product! We tried it last year with my BFF, and it turned green for her = Boy! She also could tell at 13 WEEKS that it was a boy! My Godson was born about a month ago!

So now it's my turn to try out Intelligender this fun gender prediction test.

You can take it as early as 10 weeks, so I figure taking it in my 15th week gives whatever is in my urine a chance to tell me if it's a boy or girl. ALL of the tests I have taken so far have pretty much given me a boy result, so I was expecting this to turn green right away.

Watch below to see me take the test and reveal the results!

According to them their test is about 82% accurate so we'll see... But honestly, I think it's right! Haha. What do you think?

I'll find out in about 4-5 weeks! I'll let you know if they're right or not when Spawnie gets here! Muahaha!

You can BUY intelligender for $35.95 or WIN one by:

1. Be(come) a follower of my blog!

Spread the word so you can get to that number quicker, tweet about it! Facebook about it, tell your friends! No rules except to have fun! Good luck!!

I Wanna Know!! Boy or Girl?!

I can't wait to find out what Spawnie is. I've had a couple of dreams about this baby being a girl, which make me think it's a girl. After all, I had a dream about a big fat positive test result just a day or two before I got it!

My husband and both our moms also think Spawnie is a girl. But there are a few things that make me think maybe not. I got really bored and took just about every online baby gender prediction test I could find.

For one... The Chinese Lunar Calendar. I almost sweat by it. Tell me, look at it... Was it right for you? It has been right for my moms kids I think, as well as several of my friends.

I'm not sure if Spawnie was conceived in September or October (it could be either) but both give me the blue result which = BOY.

Then there's Old Wives Tales. I took a quiz on Childbirth.org And it gave me this result: BOYAnother one on BabyGenderPrediction.com with some similar questions ALMOST said girl, but the last five questions pushed it the other way: BOY.I found another on BabyGenderPredictionTest.com and got the opposite. This one asked me questions about birth dates and my cravings and what not. Ok I'll be honest, I took it twice and the SECOND time I got this result: GIRL. So one, (or several) of these are right. Know of other fun tests you can try? I'm sorta having fun with this now. All of the sites have a 50/50 chance but it's kind of amusing to guess, and it's especially funny when I'm laughing at myself trying to figure out which answer is more likely to give me the GIRL result.

Of course all I want is a healthy baby but if you couldn't tell, part of me REALLY REALLY wants a girl. I'm so girlie and I can just dress her up in so much cute stuff! Plus, I sorta just FEEL like Spawnie is a girl.

But then again, I kinda feel like Spawnie is a boy when we're at the doctor's office and looking at 'em on the screen. I wish I knew!!

There are a few gender prediction home tests I'm thinking of taking. One I reviewed before and it was right for my friend... Intelligender. Another is an at-home blood DNA test called Pink or Blue. I'll let you know if and when I do one of them.

What about you... Any guesses? I'm thinking of starting a pool thingy but I'm trying to decide on a site to do it through. Know of any good baby pool sites? Here are a few I've found so far:

I've found PregPool.com and it requires people enter $10 to make their guess for gender/due date/ weight etc. Then mom gets a percentage and the winner of the pool gets a percentage (after the site takes 10%, which I DON'T like).

Then there's ExpectNet.com It's free, and the pool is free, all for fun, and I think there's added questions like length and stuff. I like that and that there's space for the couple to write updates about their pregnancy and notes to family and friends.

There's also BabyPool.com it also appears to be free, but not as pretty-looking as ExpectNet to me. Like ExpectNet there's a place to put your registries, photos and notes to family and friends.

I'm not sure if it's polite to ask people to put money in a pool that ultimately goes to you, but at the same time, you usually put some money in a pool. But either way, I think it's mostly for good fun, and maybe we could think of a prize for the winner.

Either way, I added a poll to the left for my blogging friends! So make your vote! I am guessing about 49% chance for a girl 51% chance for a boy myself... Because that's my luck.

Did you know what you were having before you found out?

The Gender Prediction Test-- Intelligender

Do you want to know the gender of your baby before it's born? If you couldn't tell from some of my previous posts... I do. Not only that, but I've been reading up about sexual positions that will get me a girl first. I'm not one for surprises.

Yea, yea, when it comes down to it, I just want a healthy baby, but let's be honest... I want a girl I can dress up in dresses and bows.

Some of my older colleges ask "what every happened to the surprise?...Nowadays there's no real surprises in life, why not wait until the baby is born to find out the sex?" Good question... But to me, it's a surprise in the ultrasound room, or in the delivery room, and in my book... The sooner I find out, the better.

When I heard about Intelligender from a CNN article I knew it was something I wanted to try out for myself... but not being able to wait until I was pregnant, and having an expecting best friend who hasn't yet hit her 20-week mark, I decided she'd be my guinea pig.

She had a guess of what the gender would be since her mom is doing ultrasounds and at about 13 weeks she had a peek at the possible gender.--Although this test says it can predict as early as 10 weeks (with about a 70-85% accuracy rating).

I sent her the Intelligender test and had her promise me she'd call me before taking it. She had to use her first morning's urine, and I had just woken up when she called to turn my computer on... So you'll have to forgive my looks in this video. I tried to edit in as many pictures as I could so you wouldn't have to stare at my ugly sleepy face. Ok, so check it out!

So are you a believer yet? If you want to try it yourself you can pick one up at Wallgreens, CVS, HEB, and a bunch of other places, they're $40... But before you run off to buy one, see if you can just win my extra test and I'll ship it your way so you or your friend can end the suspense and see what you're having before your half-way mark! FYI... I can't find an expiration date on it so if you're not having a baby yet you could always save it *wink wink* *nudge nudge*

I'm going to try something a little different for this one... I've seen live giveaways before and I've always been intrigued by them, so we'll try it for this. Commenter #414. Why? Well because I just reached 400 followers, and because 14 is my favorite number.

Rules: You must first Tweet or facebook: "Hey! @babymakinmachin is doing a LIVE Giveaway for a cool gender prediction kit! http://tinyurl.com/mjmuls please RT!"

After that... You can comment as many times as you want but you must say a complete sentence. You can tell me why you want this, what you think of it, what you though of my video, your favorite food or leave some pre-mommy advice, whatever! Be creative! No spam though, I'll delete spam. So good luck! I'm turning comment moderation on so you can be sneaky :) But I'll be publishing a bunch of comments every now and then! So comment away!! ...a bunch!

Be nice and have fun!!
