How to conceive a boy?

Question

What is the best way to try and conceive a boy?

Answer 1

Do a internet search on Shettles Method--it isn't 100% accurate but it can certainly tip the odds in favor of one sex or the other.

Answer 2

there's something that worked for me, and a lot of people i know, which a friend told me about. you need to count to the 15th day from the first day of your period. Now, for 10 days before that, don't have intercourse, the sperm count needs to be high . after 10 days of abstinance, if you try on the 15th day, you will most probably have a boy. Also, don't get up from the bed or wherever for atleast half an hour after you're done. Good luck.

Answer 3

There is a book out there you can get, but I think the time around your ovulation, different things you douche with and eat, and even the position can make a difference. Supposedly the deeper penetration the more likely it is to be a male, because male sperm tends to be bigger and slower. I also think the closer to ovulation the more likely it is to be a boy.

Answer 4

There is no sure fire way, although scientists have found that the male sperm is slower than the female. Anything you can do to speed them up helps.

They say drinking coffee, not smoking, not riding bikes, and wearing boxers all helps when making boys.

But nore often than not its just myth.

Answer 5

go to www.yourdays.com. its free to sign up and it will tell you which day you should have sex if you're trying to conceive a boy. it something to do with your cm and how the sperm swims. to much for me to figure out.

Answer 6

I think that it is selfish to try to conceive a particular sex. I think you should be happy with what the Lord gives to you.

Answer 7

Try looking into the Shettle's theory. It's taught in the book:

How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby

Answer 8

supposedly the best way is to have sex the day before and the day of ovulation. Since X's are slower, they will have less chance of getting to the egg...Ys are faster so have a higher rate of success when they are 'released' just before the egg comes down.
To know when you ovulate, you can chart or use ovulation predictor sticks.

Answer 9

Without a fertility doctor to intervene I'm afraid you can't choose. We're not like alligators, ya know. (Where the sex is determined by the temperature of the eggs)

Answer 10

the saying goes...have sex on the day of conception as male sperm swim quicker to get to the egg...girl sperm take a day or 2 more but that isnt medical fact i dont think xx
