Baby Alvey's gender and due date are unknown. Several old wives' tales tests were performed on the mother's urine, including the wedding ring test, baking soda test, cabbage test, and Drano test. Most tests indicated it's a girl. However, tests for food cravings and heartbeat pointed to a boy. An ultrasound at 31 weeks estimated the due date as May 25th, measuring 12 days ahead of schedule. Participants were asked to guess the baby's gender and due date for a chance to win a prize.
