2023 Revised Chinese Baby Calendar: Choose Baby Gender

Are you planning for a baby Rabbit in 2023 or a baby Dragon in 2024? Do you know how to use the Chinese Baby Gender Prediction Chart to choose the next baby's gender? The Chinese Baby Gender Prediction Chart is a cross-reference table between women's ages and conception months for families to choose a baby's gender before pregnancy. People wonder whether the conception months are the Chinese lunar months or the Chinese zodiac months. We have this discussion at the 2020 Chinese Baby Calendar for Planning Baby With Desired Gender. The conclusion of the study is that we can compromise the Chinese lunar month and the zodiac month into one revised lunar month. The lunar days in Chinese lunar months are also in their corresponding zodiac months. The following are the new revised Zodiac-Lunar months of 2023. This will help women planning to conceive a baby with the desired gender.

Sex Ratio at Birth by Months and Countries

According to our study, the sex ratio (males per females) at birth is affected by the seasons and regions. The following is the seasonal birth data from the USA, Singapore, China, India, Quebec in Canada, and Modena in Italy. The blue boxes indicate that months have a higher sex ratio in that region.

January, February, March, April, and September have higher Boy Counts in the Chinese Baby Gender Prediction Chart. We put the Boy Count of the Prediction Chart in the bottom row of the chart. The sex ratio of China's statistical data matches the Chinese Baby Gender Prediction Chart. If women in China plan for a baby boy, they can conceive a baby in the spring. In other regions, women can choose the conception month in the fall for a baby boy.
