Top tips on conceiving a girl

What ecmo said.

Hello

I'm trying to do this 2! Ok there is a fantastic book which is v v easy to read, when my DH's mate leaves aftre watching rugby I will post details (don't want him seeing book!

I have 2 DS's and they are wonderful but would be nice to have a pink one 2! here is what I am doing : _

• Lots and lots of sex before OV to get sperm count down -hubby to keep his bits very warm (they suggest hot baths before the deed but not done that yet so tight pants!!
• build up each month getting closer to ov each month, suggests u stop cd7 first month and the cd8 then cd9 following months. -no sex near ov (need to chart or sticks) -no orgasims for women! -there are diets but not sure how effective they are............someone is posting who is doing this.

I am well happy that people have put some sucess stories on here, I am keen but I have limited patience so these messages will keep me strong.

I heard Jamie Oliver to and was nodding on head to him! he obviouslu doing his research

HTH

I have no idea if this is true, but Jamie Oliver was saying on the radio a couple of days ago that it is all to do with temperature. He wants a boy after 2 girls. This relates to the male sperm swimming faster than female, so DH/DP would somehow need to cool his bits down for a boy to help them swim, and visa versa for a girl!

Anyway, not sure that Jamie Oliver is the world's expert on conception, but there you go!

I was after (and got) a girl, which coincided with trying the pre-ovulation-sex-only method described by ecmo. in fact she was conceived on day 8 of my cycle or something ridiculously early like that. and i felt totally sick from about day 26. very very clear girl signal, apparently. good luck!

i have also heard that the man should have a wank first and then have sex.

apparently there is a whole book dedicated to this, i know a woman who used it and had a girl.

Shettles? theory
boy-producing sperm swim faster but don?t live as long, whereas girl-producing sperm swim slower but live longer. Because of this, he says that if you want a girl, it?s better to have sex two to four days before ovulation then stop, as the girl-producing sperm are more likely to still be present when you ovulate.

I read this somewhere and then tried it! I tried for a boy so was waiting till after I ovulated. I'm sure its just luck but it seemed to work!

Ok, I can't believe I am about to post this but you've asked!

A friend of mine was in a similar boat - had 2 DS and wanted a DD. She read and read and googled and googled and here is her theory:

There are days in a month that will result in either a boy or a girl. To strengthen that... well when you're TTC... I mean IN THE PROCESS... you can't "enjoy" it if you know what I mean . You DH/ DP must, of course, to complete the process but you cannot.

I know is sounds CRAZY and I actually don't believe it but she swears by it and now has a little DD. She tells everyone how she actually was flipping through magazines, trying to distract herself while you know... I feel bad for her poor DH LOL but hey, that's dedication to the idea, I guess!

Good luck ~ sending you lots of pink baby pixy dust ~
