Trying for a girl!

When is the best time and in what position to make a baby girl? I have 2 boys and this is my last shot. Any tips? This is my  second month trying and I really want to make it happen soon!

Doing this and that and listening to myths isn't going to get you a girl. Just be thankful for what you end up having regardless....

I conceived late with all three.  We have two girls and were expecting this one to be a girl but we are expecting a boy.  I don't think there's anything you can do.

Dont give her false hope with gettin a girl by doin this and that. Sorry but its all up to chromosomes and which sperm makes it to the egg first. Therr is nothing u can do conceive a girl

I would try the Chinese gender chart too.  It worked for both of my kids and just about everyone else's I know.  You can even look at what age and when you conceived your first 2 and see if it was right for them.

It's closer to ovulation for a boy, and farther from ovulation for a girl, it's said that male sperm are stronger and swim faster, so having sex close to ovulation male sperm will beat female to the egg, and farther away from ovulation because female sperm live longer than male, so it gives time for the male sperm to die off.

Don't think anything really works to get a certain gender except hoping for the best!! We have 2 girls and my partner has 2 girls from a previous relationship so we really wanted a boy but nope we are 32 weeks nearly with our 5th girl and we are over the moon!!

My boyfriend and I had sex every other day for about a month and I got pregnant. I wouldn't really worry about trying hard to make a girl, because you might jinx yourself and have another boy lol

You can't choose gender by a position or time, unfortunately. There are wives tales that if you have farther from ovulation you'll have a girl, more acidic foods, etc, but they're just hit or miss. We had sex every other day leading up to ovulation and I'm having a girl, and I was on top, but that's how I got pregnant with my son, too.
