Drano!

So in case you haven't been updated, we have been trying all kinds of old wives tales out before we find out the sex of the baby. The pendulum test said girl on pretty much all occasions and with both of our wedding rings and a needle. We thought we should go for the big one: the Drano test. It goes like this: Get crystal Drano. Pee in a cup. Add to Drano. Watch what happens. If it changes color, it's a boy, if not, it's a girl. In the process of getting all this ready, my mom mentioned it to her pregnant neighbor and she wanted to be in on the experiment too. As did my mom actually, but as a control. So tonight we all peed in Drano. My jar's reaction was pretty awful. It bubbled like mad and got really black, so I guess that means boy. My mom's did the same thing however, though not as bad and not as instant. I guess she's having a baby boy too?? Anna's, the neighbor, didn't do anything. Looks like she gets girl, which I'm guessing she's ok with after 2 boys she already has. In any case, the smell was absolutely awful and though we stood far enough away, it stunk to high heaven. So that's that! We will see how right the tests were soon (i hope)!
