how to pick the sex of the bay

[jollyjollymom]

hey, i hav two cute little girls, would like to hav a boy now. any one out there with tips??

No, you get what you are given.

Keep having babies. If it's a girl, leave her behind in the hospital (or give her to me).

Anyone else singing this to the tune of "Sitting on the dock of the bay?"

There is book called " How to choose the sex of your baby" Its good read.
Loads of tips to try, good luck.

search the archives first, is a very good tip, before asking the question which seems to have been asked a billion times before! good luck x

for a boy they say you should try to BD as near as possible to actual ovulation (Y sperm are supposed to get there quicker, but lack stamina - he he)

for a girl you should try to time it so that you BD 2-3 days before ovulation.

It's obviously not 100% reliable though...

there's also some other weird stuff about acidity / alkalinity of the vagina I believe, there is lots of stuff if you Google it

Personally I would be happy either way, and the whole concept of choosing the sex of your baby I find a bit unpleasant TBH e.g. what happened in China.

Just don't turn into one of these people who ends up having 10 kids just because you're that desperate for a boy. It may never happen.

I'd love a little girl (have a DS) but will be thrilled with another boy, just as long as it's healthy.

Either way good luck

i have a DD and a DS both conceived on day 13 of a 28 days cycle.. who knows if you really can influence things.. it is the sperm that determines the gender...

anyway have a 3rd baby because you want a 3rd baby/child.

I conceived this baby (I'm pregnant) on the day I ovulated and friend said it would be a boy because of the faster swimmer thing.

Its a girl. First time it was a boy when I concieved on that day.

These 'tips' are crap. It is random.

I agree with Lulumaam, have it because you want a 3rd child, not a boy. Hate it when I read these stories where people have 10 children because 9 were the same sex and they wanted the other. You should want the child, not the gender.

there you go, some evidence that there is no "sure fire" way of getting the sex you want - thank goodness.

The thing is these tips are perpetuated, because 50% of the time they will be correct.

With me I got pregnant from SWI six days before I ovulated. I assumed from what I read that it would be a girl.

She was (IS) a girl, so of course, I am confirmed in my view that the "tip" was correct.

But it was always going to be 50/50 anyway.

Did you ever hear of that doctor who sold some sort of potion to chose the sex you wanted? He said it had a 100% guarantee and would give you your money back if you didn't get the sex you wanted. Apparently, he made a fortune.

Oh and btw, he gave 50% of people their money back.

LOL

has anyone heard about a strong cup of coffee or something like that......???
