How can I have a girl

Hi All,

I have two boys. 1 is 4 and half and another one is one year old. Now we want a boy. Are there any suggestions for me?

Best regards,
Sue

You'll have to do a special IVF. Not sure of the prices, probably at least $20000. And I think only a few centers do that in the country  - ask any fertility doctor.

After sex during the 18th hour after ovulation, stand on your head for exactly 22.6 minutes and chant Ava Maria for 1.3 hours while eating a pecan pie. You'll get your girl.

:-)

Kidding...good luck!

I'm sure there are some 'high tech' ways that cost thousands and thousand of dollars that can offer you the choice of gender, but there are no natural ways to choose gender. You may read a lot of different things that say it will guarantee you one or the other, but the truth is, it's a 50/50 chance either way. If you truly only want a girl and are adamant against a boy, adoption would be your best option. You would get the gender you want plus give a child a loving home. Just something to think about. Good luck!

If you google it, you will find all sorts of "tips" on how to conceive one gender or the other...certain days around ovulation to have intercourse, even herbs and supplements you can take to sway things one way or the other.  Personally, I don't really believe it, I think it is just luck of the draw, but I wish you good luck!
