[CLOSED GROUP] TTC to 1st diaper - Welcome Freya! Congrats to fezzle!

I think you need to give us a link or description of said necklace trick!

 

[MIZZYD]

Lol, I will try and find a link. A friend of mine actually told me about it and she is the one that did it to DH and me and a few other couples that were there a while back, and then I did it again a few days ago on myself just for the heck of it and it came out the same as the first time. My friend also did it on a couple that already had 3 children, and the necklace showed girl, girl, boy, which is what they have. Some people also use this trick on pregnant woman, but instead of the hand they do it on the belly to predict the gender of the baby. Of course this is all for fun.

 

[ClandestineTX]

Of course, but some of us (MEEEEE) don't have enough fun!

LOL, it's either that or my Ouija board!

 

[MIZZYD]

Hahahaah noooo, no ouija board. That thing actually scares me. I'll look for a link as soon as I am able to stay seated for longer than 5 minutes. Either that or post pix trying to explain what I am talking about, though I suck at explaining things.

 

[MIZZYD]

The trick starts with a necklace or ring with a string. You start by putting the necklace on your hand (like in the pix on the left), then raise it up (pix on the right). If the necklace or ring swings in a circular motion, then you are having a girl. If it moves back and forth, like a pendulum, then you are having a boy. You do the same thing until the necklace stays still, like the pix on the right. Have fun, lol, haha.

There is a link in my siggy MIZZY Twags Twitterings with baby on board feel free to pop on over

OK so this necklace trick is pretty much the same for gender guesses when preggo but you do it over your belly!!

 

[ClandestineTX]

I'll try the necklace thing later today - have a meeting in a bit and must get ready for that first. Ouija boards are not scary to me at all, they are games. And I have books on the so-called events associated with them... but nothing to report here (and I've had them for years).

 

[Mrs. JJ]

2 boys! Damn I want a girl too!

 

[LillyTame]

If I did it right, 4 girls If we get 2 I'm stopping! lol

 

[txbiscuit]

No stopping at two!

 

[MIZZYD]

hahahahaha, mine said 3 and DH said stopping at 2, but I have always wanted 3. So IDK, I just want to be what I call "Full hand family" you know, 3 kids and 2 parents, haha.

 

[MIZZYD]

@Mrs. JJ: did you do it on your belly since you are pregnant now?
My friend also did it on DH and he got the same results as me. Kinda cool, all the couples actually got the same results, we were all having a blast with it (maybe a little too much since we were all a bit drunk too)

 

[Mrs. JJ]

If I did it right, 4 girls If we get 2 I'm stopping! lol

Necklace says no stopping!!!

I did, still said boy. But I did it again and now I'm having a girl. Better not be twins!

 

[ClandestineTX]

Boy, girl, girl, here... oddly enough this is coincident with what a psychic told me back in 2005... only the boy was "sooner than expected" and the girls were "close in age, possibly twins"... I now have serious doubts and fear of preterm delivery with this "sooner than expected" business. I feel like we should add these to our signatures or something so we don't forget!

 

[ClandestineTX]

And I did it again, because I'm a scientist who's all about reproducibility and got the same thing the second time.

 

[MIZZYD]

Lol, I have done it a few times and still the same. I have to say another thing about it, it does change when/if you change partners. My friend who first showed us this has had 2 BF's since she found out about this, and with the ex it was different from the current bf. All interesting stuff no?? I wonder who it'll come true to.
@Mrs.JJ: my friend said that with twins the necklace goes crazy like all over the place, not in a circle or pendulum and it will not detect the gender, just that it is twins.
@Clandestine: I am also into researching (not as hardcore as you) but I usually question things and research too much. Everytime my family has a question about something they call me. I am like "umm you all have smart phones with internet" But they know I get into stuff.

 

[ClandestineTX]

After almost 8 years and marriage... I'd better not be changing partners! Interestingly... same psychic that told me about the birth order also told me I would soon meet the man I would marry. This was Feb of 2005, I met Hubster that July

And as far as the researching goes, it's almost like I cheated. I'm a professional researcher/ PhD student, just started my 6th year of study. I don't know how else to understand the world without study and research. It's almost a handicap at this point, but also... just handy sometimes!

 

[Twag]

Hmm I have not tried the necklace thing over the belly I might give it a go

 

[Fezzle]

I did it twice and got a boy then a girl. I hope it didn't get it mixed up with my cats!
