Old Wives tale - ring over belly

Well I've heard that if the ring goes in a circle it's a girl and if it goes back and forth it's a boy.  Well I did this for my first kid and it was swinging in a circle... sure enough girl.  If I am indeed prego this time around the ring is telling me boy...  has this ever worked for you??

Told me I was having a boy. So did the chinese calendar. My linea nigra goes to my belly button only, which is indicative of a girl. My ultrasound confirmed a girl at 18w.

Never did for me. Said I would have a boy. Said the same for my sister as well, and we both have girls. My family always just did it for fun since there's no truth behind any of it.
