The following may interest you, or make you smile, good luck! It was in an old Hello! magazine: (...) a growing number of parents-to-be are turning to alternative methods in an attempt to influence the gender of their yet-to-be-conceived babies.
Most of the more common sex selection methods rely on mothers-to-be understanding their ovulation cycle, which is now easily done with a predictor kit bought from a chemist, or by charting body temperature throughout the month.
Once you know when you ovulate, you can try to conceive at specific times in your cycle depending on whether you�d like a boy or a girl, as conditions in the womb are though to be more or less favourable to X or Y chromosome sperm depending on the time of the month.
The reasons for this are not clear but it�s thought that male Y chromosome sperm move more quickly but don�t live as long as the female X chromosome sperm. This, combined with the conditions in the womb, which vary during the month, means you should be able to shift the odds in favour of having either a boy or a girl.
With all this in mind, it�s thought that if you conceive around two to four days before ovulation you�re more likely to conceive a boy, and if you conceive two to four days after ovulation you�re more likely to have a girl.
