Baking Soda Gender Test

I did this with Ellery and thought I would do it again this time (even though it was wrong for her).
There are a million and one different tests, gimmicks, and old wives' tales abounding that supposedly there to help determine gender of your unborn child, and I figured this was just one more.

The test itself is easy enough. Put a tablespoon or two of baking soda in a glass. Then add some of your urine to the baking soda. If the combination fizzes, like a soft drink that has been shaken up, then you are having a boy. On the other hand if there is no reaction at all from the baking soda and urine, you're having a girl.

The science behind this idea suggests that the gender of the baby changes some of the hormones in the mother's body, which may then change some of the acid content of her urine. If you've ever seen vinegar and baking soda together then you know why acidity is an important concept where this test is concerned.

Well it FIZZED, so yet again the Baking Soda Gender Test says the Weiland Family is expecting a boy (but don't start buying blue, because like I said when I was pregnant with Ellery it also fizzed).
