I have a friend like that. Her hubby and her had 3 little girls. I figured he didn't make male sperm. Well they got pregnant with their 4th and also their last. Guess what... It was a boy!! I was amazed. You will get what God wants you to have. Just keep your head up. Either way as long as it is healthy does it matter?? Good luck and congrats.

No, men have BOTH sexes of sperm. It is just a matter of which sex swims the fastest to the egg. It takes a REAL man to blow the balls off and get a girl LOL. It is also said that the sex position has a play in determining the sex. The deeper the penetration, the better the odds of a girl.

some men have more boy sperm and some have more girl sperm. My father in law has 5 brothers and no sisters for instance. But your hubby only has 2 boys....I would say it's a good chance that he is 50/50....if you are wanting a girl...good luck! Just remember once they're born it doesn't really matter anyway!

This is just a funny wives' tale. The chances are 50-50. Women carry XX chromosome and men carry XY chromosome. Any time the man gives his Y then you have a boy! Breaks down like this:
Woman + Man = Baby gender
X + X = XX=girl
X + Y = XY=boy

The odds in general are about 50/50 with a slight advantage to girls.
It's 100% chance. Out of millions of sperm, there has to be at least one X.

Its 50/50...He has boy and girl..not just boys..I have 3 boys and we would tease my husband about that, but now we found out we are having a girl when I was 19 weeks.

In biology, there is no such thing as only male sperms are produced.
Perhaps, your husband's first two children are cases where that one lucky sperm fertilises the egg and a boy is born.

Males determine the sex of the baby, whether boy or girl.

I know a lot of people who had boy after boy until they finally got a girl! After like 4 tries. Then they got their tubes tied. LOL

No, a man can't have just male sperm. just because he has two boys doesn't mean he can't have a girl as well.
