Pregnant? Wondering if you're carrying a Mark or a Mary? Well, one company claims that its simple urine test can tell parents-to-be whether they're having a baby girl or boy. If the urine turns orange- it's a girl. Green? You're having a baby boy.

Intelligender, the Plano, Texas, creator of the "boy or girl gender prediction test," says its researchers have isolated certain hormones that when combined with a mix of chemicals react differently if a woman is carrying a male or female child. Intelligender would not say what hormones or chemicals it uses in its test because of a pending patent.

The company claims that within 10 minutes of taking the urine test, a woman will be able to tell her baby's gender and that the test can be used as early as 10 weeks into the pregnancy. couples typically don't find out until about 20 weeks.
