It's lovely to see you two communicating like us women do best! You both had valid points, so pleased you respected each other's and sorted it out. Good luck all of you with your babes I'm really going to miss this forum! My other half has been ill and things aren't great so being able to talk to all u mums has really helped. 40 weeks plus a week hopefully not much longer Rachael XX

Pregnancy hormones are the worst! I've been so up and down the past few days. Yeah looking back I sounded a bit b*thy too. Maybe I just need some ice cream, lol

My comment meant no harm, I am sorry!! I did read it once more, it did sound as if I had a bad day. But it really was not my intentions by any means. I was actually trying to explain how even specialist help couples conceive a certain sex without spending hundreds of dollars. I kind of felt you may have belittled the lady who asked the question, I felt need to respond. But I was actually layed back about, well I thought so! Pregnancy hormones, sorry! No hard feelings here ;)

Sorry to be kind of rude but you came across pretty rude with your initial  response to me. Although maybe I'm just grumpy today;)

How funny!! After 7 children, I am pretty sure...I have things in order!! I was suggesting my own experiences from that of my doctors suggestions. I am not sure if you were suggesting,  I take a class. But I am well educated and have my own degrees and experiences, I am just fine.

Also maybe try taking a human biology class so you have a better understanding of how reproduction works.

mamahijos judging by the way she asked the question it was a fair assumption that she didn't understand that it has nothing to do with ovulation times.

I'm a mum of 3 boys this is my fourth pregnancy and I'm waiting to find out when I give birth what the sex of this one is. I've tried to convince myself its a boy but a little girl would be lovely. I decided once they're in my arms I know I'll love them whatever but j know how you feel so good luck! I'm a week over and desperate to meet my lovely baby Rachael x

Some doctors believe that it's a chance that the last day or so...could POSSIBLY be higher in chances of conceiving a girl. Female is said to possibly live longer.

Obviously we all know that the sex isn't determined by the ovulation dates although since male sperm tend to be more aggressive.

When you have sex doesn't determine what you have.  The sex is determined by the father's sperm-  either X chromosome for girls, Y chromosome for boys.

All my boys were conceived within the first days before ovulation and the first days of my ovulation. My two girls were conceived at the end of my ovulation cycle. I have 4 boys, expecting another baby boy and only 1 little girl at home. (Our first daughter passed away).
