heh without the description, I was going to say, "while knocked out cold on lots of great painkilling medication" ... but I see that wasn't exactly what the question was. I'm not sure about that but I know that my grandfather used to swear by a method where you douche with vinegar for a boy and baking soda for a girl... don't remember the exact details (probably even have the douching agents completely wrong) and wouldn't recommend trying it, but it may be of interest as far as entertainment value! lol Good luck !!!

The sex of baby is determined by the male. XX and XY chromosomes. This determines whether male or female. Most of the ways are old wives tells. :) I wish there was a way to be able to decide one or another. I think I am having a boy judging from hubbys family. My hubby thinks it's a girl. We'll be happy with either.
XX=male
XY=female

There is really nothing you can do. It all depends on which chromosome the father adds to the mix. The mother adds an X no matter what, because females are XX. The father will either add an X or a Y because males are XY. It is basically the luck of the draw.

It is all up to the sperm to determine the sex of the baby. I am pregnant with a boy and I had sex everyday in the missionary position ( I was on bottom) before bedtime. I honestly don't think that what I did had anything to do with making a boy it was the sperm that decided.

Well, this one's all up to your husband - it's his genes which determine the gender of the baby.
