The Onion Test

"Despite their lack of understanding of the menstrual cycle, the ancient Egyptians’ knowledge of the blood supply to the uterus led to the creation of a second and rather radical pregnancy test, guaranteed to bring tears to the eyes of its user. This test required the insertion of an onion into the vagina. Should the woman’s breath have the odour of an onion on the following day, then pregnancy had been detected."

"Barley and emmer [wheat]. The woman must moisten it with urine every day . . . if both grow, she will give birth. If the barley grow, it means it’s a male child. If the emmer grows, it means it’s a female child. If neither grows, she will not give birth.â€
When this technique was replicated in a laboratory, a significant number of pregnant urine samples were found to facilitate growth of the barley and emmer.[10] The accuracy of the Egyptians’ observation is impressive, especially since reliable urine tests for pregnancy were not introduced in modern medicine until AD 1929"
lol that part is pretty good too.
