Wedding Ring/Needle test? How accurate is it?

[erin7707]

So I hear the wedding ring test is really accurate (If you haven't heard of it, it's where you put your wedding ring on a string, or a strand of hair, and let it dangle over your belly or wrist and if it swings back and forth it's a boy, if it goes in circles its a girl) and I want to test the theory! It predicts boy for me.. and I'm wondering if mom's that already know what they're having can test it to see how accurate it is?
If you've done it before, was it accurate for you?

Mine acted weird - it swung in circles if I held it over my bloat below my belly button - and straight back and forth when I held it down lower, and sometimes even paused - and I am for sure only having one! I do know you can test your chakaras that way too (its pretty fun actually) So I wonder if I was actually hanging out over one or more of them?

It was correct for me both times

They say it detects future pregnancies also if it pauses and goes in other directions!

It was right for my first this one is supposed to be a girl. I guess we will see

We did this the first time I got pregnant with my daughter! ^-^ Very much accurate ( sounds weird. ) for me. Started to spin for our little girl, and then our son, and we're "suppose" to have another little boy sometime in the future after our son. We'll see though, not sure if we're thinking that far ahead of ourselves. Roffle.

What we did too, was stopped it, and did it again on the side of my hand as well this time. XD And very much so after I did the maternity 21 blood testing ( they were able to tell the gender. ) we were having a little boy. Two other anatomy scans have very much proven it along with the blood test. n.n

It's so crazy! I hope it's true!

[amytrisha]

It was wrong for me.

 

[erin7707]

It was wrong for me.

ahh! the first one I've heard that's been wrong! lol

 

[amytrisha]

Sorry to disappoint!

 

[mad_but_glad]

That's actually the first I've ever heard of being wrong!!

Right for me! My mom did it when I was 11 weeks and it said boy and she goes "you are having a boy. It is 100%"... I was like yeah okay crazy lady lol. She says you cannot be thinking boy or girl or you will change the results. YOu have to clear your mind. We both cleared our minds and she did it and every time she did it, it said boy. She did it on my cousin and hers said girl... we will find out in like a month or so! We held it over my dad just for fun and the thing stayed completely still and did not even move. I believe the test now!

 

[erin7707]

That's awesome! Unfortunately I can't seem to clear my mind... and I'm hoping for a boy so maybe that's why it's saying boy lol

I just read something on this yesterday proving it to be right ft... I am a huge skeptic and didn't believe it, but this article described that it goes off of magnetic something or another in our skulls... so this article went on to say if you don't believe then try it out on people around you.. at this point I was intrigued!!! So I decided to perform my own experiment... here's what I did and my results....
I put my 18k white gold diamond wedding ring on a piece of thread, and because I didn't want any influence from myself I tied the thread to a 2x2 piece of wood and set it on the couch and chair so that you can sit under it and it was perfectly still... so I went first, I sat under it where it was about 3-4 inches from the top of my skull, it started circling.... hmmm, interesting!! Next I made my dh sit under it, same thing 3-4 inches from skull, it slowly started swinging back and forth... we also tried our two dogs, the girl it circled, the boy it swung back and forth.... ok, by this point I was fully believing it.. so we decided to try my belly, we positioned the ring over the baby (confirmed on Doppler) and wouldnt you know it started circling!!! We did it over dh's stomach and nothing... I've already been believing this is a girl... but I didn't clear my mind, I didn't think I could influence it by my mind... weird!!! Anyway I'll know in 4-5 weeks!!!

 

[erin7707]

That's awesome! Make sure to update us! So you weren't holding it over your belly? I'll have to find some contraption to hold mine for me. DH doesn't have a steady hand and I feel like if any person holds it they won't clear their minds. It's not easy to do!

 

[pinkpassion]

At first we did it over our heads, then to check gender of baby I did it over the belly where the baby was.. I will definitely update. I have my 12 week scan on Friday so I'll post skull/nub theory guess pics.. keep an eye out for it!!

 

[mad_but_glad]

I've had 4 different people do it on me now and the results have been the same every time!

I did the ring test at 7 weeks and now at 17 weeks and both went in circles.....Ill know in 17 days if it was true!! Ill keep u posted!!
