Please tell me you meant "our baby"!
I have heard that the pH balance is critical, but I don't think it's all that reliable, and could possibly cause damage. (Pickled eggs?)

Yes, in this country this can be done for a hefty fee. In other countries, this practice is being banned.
From: http://www.cnn.com/HEALTH/bioethics/9906/sperm.separation/index.html
A new technique that increases the odds of successful sex selection was recently announced by a fertility clinic in Virginia. This process separates X and Y sperm so that sperm of one sex or the other can be used for artificial insemination. On average, it takes three trials of the technique to achieve successful conception -- at $2,500 per trial -- with a reported increase in the likelihood of conceiving a female from 50 percent to 90 percent, and a male from 50 percent to 70 percent.

There are a numbero f different folk remedies including some very bizarre and dangerous ones to help predict the sex of a baby. None are really reliable.

Maybe you can't choose, but I have heard that THIS WORKS:
Male sperm swim faster, but die sooner
Female sperm swim slower, but live longer
To up your chances of having a boy, you need to have sex very very close to the point of ovulation.
To up your chances of having a girl, you need to have sex a few days before ovulation - that way, the female sperm will be the only ones around....
I have a few friends who swear by this technique. Your wife can estimate her cycle by going to www.mymonthlycycles.com

You could wait till my baby is born, then ask me. Not really choosing the sex of my baby though, is it.
There are certain charlatans who will take your money to ensure the gender of your baby (even offer a money back guarantee), but beware. You do the math.

I don't think that I want to let you choose the sex of my baby

There is this Gender Predictor which is very accurate. It works wonder for me and a couple of my friends that I recommended. You can do try it too and check which month you can get a baby boy or girl. Need to input the mother's birthday and the month of conception. GOOD LUCK!

Yes - it's called adoption. Can't you just be happy with whatever you get? The only thing that should matter is if the baby is healthy. Would you love your kid less if it wasn't the right sex?

I heard that your wife can change her eating habit, so the ph will change for a better chance to get a girl OR a boy.

Why not just have what you are given and be grateful that you have a healthy child.
People like you make me sick, so many people on this planet can't have children, and there you are wanting to pick the sex of yours!!
