I have heard so many myths about positions to try and I know you "supposedly" have different cravings and the baby is supposed to sit in the stomach at a certain position. But My Big question is... is there anyway short of spending $30,000 at a clinic to make sure when i get pregnant its a Boy? Me and my husband are planning to have a child in a few years and we both REALLY want a son. We would love a child no matter what but its just a preference. Any baby making tips to get a boy?

Try reading the book "How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby". IT's the Shettles Theory on how to conceive a specific gender.

I read once that there are differances in the sperms that create a boy baby and a girl baby. It said that the boy baby sperms are faster, but die off sooner than the girl baby sperms. I think it said that sperm can live for a few days, ya know, once they are past from a man into a woman. It recommended being intimate the day of ovulation if you want a boy, and being intimate a couple days before ovulation if you want a girl (giving the boy baby sperms a chance to die off so that the girl baby sperms can reach their destination). Hope this was helpfull, but I can't gaurantee the results, so you should ask an obstetritian or a fertility doctor.

First of all genetics states that there's continually a 5050 hazard of gender. despite the fact that a pair has 15 ladies the following youngster nonetheless has a 5050 hazard of being a boy. So all that genetics stuff is definetely improper Look it up if you do not think me. The shettles approach is rubbish, I'm sorry however it's. I've studied genetics at period and there is not well proof to aid this speculation. He endorse that the Y sperm has a lessen hazard of survival in additional acidic stipulations however the X sperm does no longer die. There is not any well proof to aid this. However (you can like this) there's a more recent proof to aid that it is not completely genetic. It's advised that individuals have built a approach for generating extra guys throughout occasions of famine. The research shows that the womans vitamin could play a position in choosing intercourse. This could account for the greater quantity of females on the earth. (considering in lots of nations there may be little or no famine) Shettles wrote his booklet in like 1960 and there has never been any truly well reviews that aid it.

Cowgirl position, facing north, before the sun comes up. Salty food & beer beforehand (night at the bar works fine).

I'm a mom of 3 boys & 2 girls. Didn't want another girl. Wanted one more child to make it an even 6-pack. Currently pregnant with twin boys.

There are also "how to make a boy/girl" books out there. I read part of one - my first statement pretty much sums it up anyways. I'm sure you can find the books cheaply on ebay or amazon.

Good luck!

Male sperm don't live as long as female sperm, so abstain at least several days before you know you're ovulating and then have sex as close to ovulation as possible. Waiting helps to ensure that there aren't any female sperm still "hanging around" (since they live longer) when you have sex and there will be a better chance that a male sperm will fertilize your egg.

According to "Taking Charge of Your Fertility": "Once you start to have any cervical fluid, you should abstain in order to minimize the risk of conceiving a girl. Then, have intercourse on what you perceive will be your Peak Day as well as the day after". (The "Peak Day" is considered to be the last day that you produce fertile cervical fluid).

If you're not already charting your temps, it helps to do this for a few cycles to determine how many days of fertile cervical fluid you usually have. According to "Taking Charge...," "Most women tend to have a fairly consistent number of eggwhite days each cycle." So, once you know this, you'll know when to time sex to improve your chances of conceiving a boy.

Of course, nothing other than spending tons of money on gender selection will guarantee conceiving a boy. You might want to try this method to improve your chances, though.

I've *heard* that any position you do when having sex that gives strong sperm a great chance to get to the egg first will produce a boy, only because the "male" sperm are stronger swimmers and will reach the egg first. Examples would be him ejaculating from behind, on top. It was also said that if you have him ejaculate in you from a harder to reach angle, you'll have a girl because it will take the "slower" 'girl' swimmers longer to reach the egg, but somehow they get there faster then the boys. Example positions for girls would be on top, from side. I reall ydon't know....It's all up to the guy's chromies.

The only method with any scientific backing is the Shettles method (see sources section below). It is only 75-90% effective, so you should only use it is you will be thrilled with a baby of either sex. For best likelihood, read the book, not just the Web site.

Yes, you will find this hard to believe, but eating cracked crab the day before conception will guarantee a boy for you. Every time your hubby wants some action, make him take you out and eat lots of crab. You will be knitting blue booties in no time.. and have much fun too!

The best time is 1 week before you come a period is potential to have a boy. Both of u must healthy and you take seafood a month or two month before. If you have sex one week after your period a prematured ovari and prematured sperm potential is girl. Anyway enjoyed your sex life.
