Hi guys, had the scan yesterday and yep its a boy!!
I peed on the pH paper before i got pregnant and it was neutral, (stayed yellow) but when i peed on it after i got pregnant (first morning urine) it was always blue/green which indicates boy apparently. Im not sure how correct it is but it worked for me.
I think those gender test you buy work differently tho.

Isn't your pH more acidic when you are pregnant anyway?

So, boiled cabbage water is purple. And when I added my pee it stayed purple, was just lighter as diluted. So, apparently this means I am having a girl....would be interested to see if it turns red for anyone!
Scan next week!

How to explain to our helper why I am boiling up red cabbage for the water ......

Well i did it and at first I though it was still purple but when i compared it to what was left over of cabbage water then it definately has a pinkish/reddish tinge to it.... So following my hunches... 20 or so weeks and we will know for sure!

OK my curiosity is incureable. I haven't made a pH indicator with the cabbage as I had some paper lying around. I have alkaline pee so I should be having a girl. Thats what I've thought anyway, so only a few more weeks til I find out for sure!!!

i did this test at about 6 weeks and it came up Boy. I had forgotten all about that till reading this. I have had a really gut feeling recently i am having a boy as well. Not finding out till the birth though . . . maybe someone more enterprising than me could construct a table of people's cabbage test results and how they have or will turn out
