This is Shettle Method..
Frequency and Timing of Intercourse:
Shettles says in order to increase the chances of having a boy, you should have sex no earlier than 24 hours before ovulation to 12 hours after ovulation.
Intercourse closer to ovulation the faster but less robust Y (boy) sperm. The cervical mucus present at ovulation is less acidic and "slippery" enough to help the Y (boy) sperm reach the egg more quickly.
Sexual Position:
Shettles suggests that if you are trying to conceive a boy, deep penetration from your partner, preferably with the "doggy style" position, will deposit the sperm closer to the cervix giving the more aggressive and quicker moving "boy" sperm a head start to fertilizating the egg first.
Sex and Orgasms:
When trying to conceive a boy, Shettles suggests that orgasms during sex are a good thing as the body produces substances after orgasm that makes the vaginal environment more alkaline, which favors the "boy" sperm.
The contractions which accompany an orgasm help move the sperm up and into the cervix, giving the "boy" sperm an extra chance at being available when your egg is available for fertilization.
Considerations for the Men:
Have your partner wear boxers. Wearing tight fitting underwear increases the heat levels around the testes and can, in turn, lower the sperm count. Wearing loose fitting underwear helps keep the testes cooler.
Have your partner drink a caffeinated beverage right before sex. This makes the Y-Sperm more active.

Like some of the other posters have said...I have heard that having sex as close to ovulation as possible will increase your chances of conceiving a boy. Supposedly, sperm that carry the Y chromosomes (which creates a boy) don't live as long as the ones carrying X (girl)...so if they get in right when you are ovulating the boys have a better chance of making it.

My dad had three girls and wanted a boy. He and my step mom were trying, but weren't getting pregnant, so he went to the doctor and found out he had low sperm count. The doctor said it was probably because he worked in a very hot factory environment and took hot showers and wore pants in the hot summer and whatnot, and instructed him to start wearing shorts more often, stop taking such hot showers and gave him coolers to put in his pants. Not only did they get pregnant shortly after he began his crotch cooling regimen, but they also had a boy. I don't know if the cooler crotch helped to increase his y sperm more, but it could have been a factor.

google shettles method but it basically suggests that you have sex on the exact day of or right before ovulation.
we had a boy and that also happens to be the day we tried but this time we will try for a girl so maybe do it a day or 2 before. Just try not to miss it entirely.
be well

No matter what people claim, there is no sure-fire way to conceive one sex over the other unless you had in vitro fertilization and chose only one type of sperm (X or Y) to fertilize the egg. It's a 50-50 chance based on which sperm reaches the egg first.
