If you are trying to conceive, and would really like to know more about conceiving a baby boy, I know you are about to be impressed by the following advice. What you are about to learn will really stack the odds of conceiving a baby boy in your favour.
Whilst research suggests that your diet and positions during sexual intercourse can influence the gender of your baby, the information I am about to share is, in my opinion, by far the most crucial thing you can do to potentially predict baby gender.
As well as reading this post, I highly recommend this “How To Choose Your Babys Sex” book, it’s a very interesting read with some great tips, including a lot of detail on the method below.
So what is this crucially important secret?
Did you know that a man produces two different types of sperm? He produces what are known as Y chromosome sperm and X chromosome sperm. The crucial difference being his Y sperm are male and his X sperm are female. This means that if one of his Y sperm fertilises your egg before an X sperm can, you will conceive the little baby boy of your dreams. And here is the good news. You can actually influence the probability of his Y sperm getting to your egg first!
Gender is not the only difference between the Y and X chromosome sperm. The Y chromosome sperm are faster swimmers than the femail X sperm, but whilst they may be stronger swimmers they have less stamina and can't survive in the uterus as long. Therefore, and this is the critical bit, if you know your day of ovulation precisely you can time your love making to try and ensure the sperm of your choice has the best chance of fertilising your egg!
For example, when trying to conceive a boy you need avoid making love up until the day before you ovulate. If you make love any earlier, the male sperm will die leaving the female sperm free to fertilise your egg. By delaying intercourse until just before you ovulate, the faster male sperm will get to your egg first and so conceiving a baby boy!
There you have it, the crucial basics conceiving a boy, or at least the secret to really increasing your chances of having a boy.
