What is the old wives tale about the ring over the belly to tell if it is a boy or girl?
Q. How do you do the necklace and ring over the belly, which way is it for a boy swing or in circles? How far along do you need to be? Like I said I know its an old wives tale but I am curious.

A. My family does the needle and thread. Hang a needle from thread and put your hand palm facing down and bob the needle 5 times on the thumb side of your hand and hold it over the top of your hand. If it swings in circles it's a girl, side to side it's a boy. My mom did it on me just after I got married and it said I was going to have 3 boys and a girl. I have 2 girls now. So... But I have done it since I've had them and it showed to girls and a boy and then it stopped. I had a miscarriage and now it shows 2 girls and 2 boys. I'm ttc now, so we'll see if it's really right. It is fun to do anyway.

A. you don't always get an answer immediately -and anyway the best things are always worth waiting for! Despereaux Tilling- The main protagonist of the story, Despereaux was born as a castle-mouse and the only living mouse of his mother's last litter. Named by her from the many depairs of that time, Despereaux has been an oddball among the mouse community from birth, as he was born sickly with a small body, huge ears, and his eyes open. He then grew up to be radically different from the other mice in this tale, choosing to read books instead of eating them, from where he develops a fascination toward fairy tales and learns from them ideas such as chivalry and courage, which his fearful peers dismiss as absurd. Through his large ears,… [cont.]
