It's an old wives tale. There is nothing you can do to determine the sex of your baby. It's up to God.

Quite a few old wives' tales about sex selection involve theories about the best way to make love if you want to influence your baby's gender.

If you want a boy...

- Lie down after sex and stay there for a while. Supposedly that gives the boy sperm a chance to beat the girl sperm to the egg.

- Make love standing up.

- Try the rear-entry position.

- Focus on his pleasure — if the male partner climaxes first, supposedly you're guaranteed a boy.

- Give in to seduction — if the man is the one to suggest some baby-making, you'll get a boy.

- Gals, sleep to the left of your partner.

If you want a girl...

- Give the missionary position a go.

- Make love with the woman on top.

- Focus on her pleasure — if the woman orgasms before her partner, you can decorate your nursery in pink.

- Take the lead — if the woman initiates sex, you'll get a girl.

I just copied the section about sexual positions, but there's a bunch of other info at the following web site that is interesting, like what to eat and when to do it. Good luck trying!

People have been trying to figure this one out for centuries, "but there are really no lovemaking positions that can influence the gender of your baby," says Jeffrey Steinberg, MD, director of the gender selection program at the Fertility Institutes in Los Angeles.

Unfortunately, we're still at the whim of Mother Nature when it comes to the sex of our babies, despite the many fab folklore methods: Eat meat and salty food to get a boy; splurge on desserts to get a girl. Make love standing up or when there's a quarter moon if you want a son, but stick to the missionary position and make love during a full moon for a daughter.

You can also check out a 700-year-old Chinese conception chart that tells women which dates will result in boy or girl conceptions, based on the mother's age and the month of conception. But there's no scientific evidence that any of this works.

Nonetheless, gender selection is big business. You may have noticed sex selection kits marketed via the Internet that guarantee results with douches, vitamins, or do-it-yourself artificial insemination kits. Not one of them has been sanctioned by science. The best-known book is by invitro-fertilization pioneer Landrum Shettles, MD, who first published a report in the 1960s on the distinctive characteristics of X-bearing (girl-producing) and Y-bearing (boy-producing) sperm, and compiled a series of noninvasive, low-tech family planning techniques.

For instance, the late Dr. Shettles advised couples seeking a son to have sex as close to ovulation as possible, because that's when a woman's vaginal and cervical fluids tend to be the most alkaline, a condition that makes conception most favorable for the less-hearty Y sperm. However, a 1995 study published by the New England Journal of Medicine reported that there was no relationship between the timing of intercourse and the baby's gender.

"There's really not much you can do at home to choose your baby's gender," sums up Dr. Steinberg. If you're really determined to have a girl, outside the bedroom there are two high-tech medical procedures involving sperm or embryo sorting that hold more promise, but their ethics are being debated on all fronts.

The gender of a baby is determined by the male. No position, herbal supplement, or tricks will change that fact. His sperm will either bring forth an X or a Y, and there's nothing you can do to control the outcome before getting pregnant.

There is absolutely no way you can determine the sex of your baby by having sex in certain positions. That is so funny. Do some reading yourself. There is plenty on the Internet.

sorry theres no positions you can do. those are myths. the sex of the baby is determined by which sperm get in the egg first. and x (girl) or a y (boy). no position can change the way the sperm swim and which makes it to the egg. its the luck of the draw.
