Is it harder to conceive a boy or girl (scientifically that is)?

[lucy1manship]

Hi All In order to settle an argument that started in the pub friday night can anybody confirm whether it is harder to make a boy or a girl??? I thought i had once watched a documentary and they stated it was scientifically harder to create a female life than a male life..... Cheers Lucy p.s one week until due date and counting......

if there was any real difference then surely we would have a distinct difference with the amount of males born vs females, but i think it varies year on year.

I have heard that (i think) its female sperm that lasts longer in the womb so therefore the sperm that dictates a male baby doesnt have as much of a chance.

1 week, excited?
