you can predict better with the age of the mother and the father- both older parents (over 30) tend to have girls, younger couples tend to have boys, older father tend to sire girls- these are not hard and fast facts but still a little more accurate than some of the older beliefs

Position of the Baby: Many swear that if a woman carries her baby high in the uterus and her stomach has a round appearance, the chances are excellent she is expecting a girl. Likewise, a boy is carried low and relatively more sideways.
However, many swear by the exact opposite and believe boys are always carried high. Go figure.
Activity of the Baby: It is said that an unborn baby who is very active, kicks, and moves a great deal in the womb is far more likely to be a girl than a boy. According to one delivery-room nurse, "Boys are lazier, even before they are born."
Hand Position of the Baby: If the ultrasound shows the baby's hands are raised, the child is a girl; if they are down, the child is a boy.
Baby's Boots: If the unborn kicks on the right side of the mother's womb, he's a boy; if on the left, she's a girl.
Stripe Theory: A woman sporting a stripe down her middle will have a boy, and the absence of one indicates a girl. (A man bearing a stripe down his back, especially if it's yellow, oh, nevermind.)
Heartbeat: If a baby's heart registers 130 beats per minute or faster it is a girl, whereas under 130 indicates a boy.
Sweet Versus Sour: A woman who craves sweets is bearing a boy; a lust for sour foods indicates she's carrying a girl.
Spicy Cravings: A mom-to-be who desires a diet of spicy foods is expecting a boy.
Heartburn: An expectant mom who is especially troubled by heartburn and indigestion will have a boy. (This "sign" may be related to the indicator above.)
Clingy Older Sister: If the unborn baby's female sibling becomes especially clingy towards her mom throughout her mom's pregnancy, a boy is on the way.
Bloodshot Eyes: If the expectant woman's eyes become bloodshot and her nose broadens, she's carrying a girl.
Nosebleeds: A mom-to-be who suffers nosebleeds will be delivered of a girl.
Hairy Legs: An expectant mom who has to shave her legs more frequently during her pregnancy is said to be awaiting the delivery of a girl.
This second set of "tests" requires more active participation on the part of the prognosticator. (The Drano test properly belongs on this list.)
Dangling a Pin: A pin or needle affixed to a piece of thread is dangled over the expectant woman's wrist. If the pin swings back and forth, it's a boy. If it twirls in circles, it's a girl. Some suggest using a nail instead of a pin. Some say the pin or nail should dangle over the mother's stomach instead of her wrist.
Dangling the Wedding Ring: The mom-to-be's wedding ring is tied to a piece of string or a strand of her hair and suspended over her stomach. If the ring rotates counterclockwise, it's a boy. If it rotates clockwise, it's a girl.
Chinese Lunar Calendar: The sex of the baby is determined by the mother's 'lunar age' (age plus nine months) at conception and the month of conception. (Click here if you'd like to try it for yourself.)

When I was pregnant, a woman I worked with used this trick she said was almost always accurate. She put a needle on a piece of thread, and let the needle hang in front of my belly. She said if it goes around in a circle, then you'll have a girl, and if it goes back and forth, then you'll have a boy. It went around in a circle, and I had a girl. Another woman at work was pregnant at the same time. The needle went back and forth, and she had a boy. Coincidence? Maybe :-)
Also, there is some type of Chinese chart out there that is extremely accurate. It goes by your age and month of conception. I'll look around and see if I can find it for you.
Found it: go to www.webwomb.com/chinesechart.htm
Good luck!

Hi, I've heard that you are likely to be more sick carrying a girl than a boy because of the higher levels of female hormones causing havoc in your body - I was totally the opposite, I was horribly sick carrying my two boys and felt much better with my two girls.
Also, I've heard that a neat little bump all in the front is more likely to be a boy - again, I was just the opposite, I had lovely neat bumps with my girls and I was just one enormous bump on legs with my boys!

I had 3 boys, and felt sick with all three. 1 daughter and not sick at all. I was overdue with all of them 43 weeks, they must have been very comfy where they were.

"Congrats!"
Might be myths! or not...
If your stomach grows outward where you can only see it from the front, its a boy, if your stomach grows all around its a girl.
Or you can even do the ring game!
Use one of your rings, using one of your neck chains put it in there, tap it three times to the palm of your hand (left). When you see the chain w/ the ring moving side to side its a boy, if it twists around, its a girl. Have fun!

If you notice your mustache getting thicker, you're going to have a boy.
