Predict Your Next Baby's Gender - With Up To 94% Accuracy

Is it possible to predict baby gender? In this article I'm going to share some of the ways of determining baby gender, both pre-conception and/or after conception.

You could go to a fertility clinic, but you will get no guarantee of success and could very easily spend thousands of dollars! I don't know about you but I don't have a big wad of money to give away. So, are there some other, less expensive alternatives?

Let's start with the Shettles Method as your baby predictor. This baby sex prediction method is based on the fact that the father's sperm is the deciding factor in whether a baby girl or boy baby is conceived.

The sperm that will create a boy baby is physically smaller, weaker, but faster than the "girl" sperm. By taking advantage of these differences Dr. Shettles realized you could actually give an advantage to one sperm over the other and often result in the baby boy or girl you wanted.

Dr. Shettles came up with a simple, at home three step system of baby gender selection many years ago, but his methods have withstood the test of time and are still very popular today!

You could opt for the Chinese Lunar Calendar Baby Predictor, which has been predicting baby's sex for centuries. Many in China and throughout the far eastern countries have a lot of faith in it's accuracy (up to 99%.) Here in the west we tend to be a little more skeptical. The Chinese Lunar Calendar Baby Predictor is said to be able to predict a baby's gender either before or after conception, but I'll let you be the judge.

Then of course there are The Old Wives Tales For Predicting a Baby Girl. Some of these old wives tales gender predictors seem a little outlandish (the "Drano" prediction method for example) but I would think some would have a basis in fact. Again I'll let you be the judge on the accuracy of these gender predictors as well.

Both the Chinese Lunar Calendar Baby Predictor and The Old Wives Tales can be a whole lot of fun to experiment with at your next baby shower if nothing else.

If you are pregnant now and want to know the sex of your unborn baby, you could find out by way of ultrasound in your 4th or 5th month. Or if your are scheduled for either a Amniocentesis, or Chorionic Villus Sampling or CVS test you can find out your baby's gender with a 99% accuracy! These tests are pretty invasive though, and won't be preformed just to predict baby gender.

It's been said that over 70% of couples world-wide would choose the gender of their babies pre-conception if they only could, if you fall within this group, you might try looking into the Shettles Methods, which it's believed can increase your chances of success from the normal 50/50 to over 95%!

The most important thing to always keep in mind is, regardless of whether you are successful in your gender predicting efforts or not, your new baby should be wanted and loved even if it is of the "other" gender. Gender disappointment is real and should not be taken lightly, don't allow yourself to succumb to it!

How To Have A Baby Girl-Eat The Right Foods

How Can "Eating The Right Foods" Help Me Conceive A Baby Girl?

Good question! Lets start by explaining how the egg is fertilized to produce a baby girl. The woman carries only the (xx) chromosome, while the man's sperm has some (xy) sperm and some (yy) sperm. So if the woman's egg (carrying the (xx) chromosome) is fertilized by the man's sperm carrying the (xy) chromosome than a girl will develop, if the egg is fertilized by the (yy) sperm a boy baby will result. So yes, it's the man's sperm that determines whether the baby is a boy or girl. If only Henry the IIV had known! (He was a king in England who killed many of his wives who didn't give him a boy baby, for those of you who didn't know;o)

There are a few very important differences between the "boy" sperm and the "girl" sperm. The girl sperm is much larger physically then the boy sperm, and tends to be slower moving and much hardier and longer lived.

Eat More To Conceive A Boy-Less To Conceive A Girl

There have been recent studies that have shown that if you eat breakfast before sex you are more likely to conceive a boy, so skipping breakfast will help you conceive a baby girl. Also eating a diet that consists of about 2200 calories or more per day during the time you are trying to conceive will make a boy more likely, so cutting back on your daily caloric intake will tip the odds in favor of a girl.

Eat Foods High In Calcium And Magnesium To Conceive A Baby Girl

Because the girl sperm are tougher than the boy sperm, by eating the right foods you can change your body's ph (become more acidic) and this can cause the boy sperm to die off, leaving only the girl sperm the opportunity to fertilize the egg. So you should be eating foods high in calcium and magnesium that will help to raise your ph, foods such as;

• Dairy products (milk, cheese, yogurt)
• Bean, legumes
• Leafy green vegetables
• Most fruits
• Meats
• Corn
• Fish
• Whole grains

Conversely you should not eat foods high in potassium, or other foods that will lower your body's ph. It is said you should avoid alcohol, caffeine, and chocolate during the this diet also.

Douching Can Be A Short-Cut To Raising Your Body's Acidity

Eating right can be a slow way to raise your vaginal ph, and douching can be much quicker. I know douching is old fashioned, and there has been problems associated with it, but it can change your vaginal ph quickly and easily. I would recommend douching only with your doctors supervision however.

Conclusion

You really need a good guide to give you the best chance of success in having a baby girl, and Rebecca's ebook is the best one I've found! You'll find all the information on diets, douching recipes, and everything else you need to know to conceive that little baby girl you want and need.

How To Have A Baby Girl-Sexual Timing And Position

How To Have A Girl Baby - Think Timing Of Conception

The timing of when you have sex to conceive a baby girl, although less crucial than when trying to have a boy baby, is still important to your success.

Why is timing so critical? Lets look at the differences between the man's sperm (he, or his sperm anyway is what determines the sex of your baby.) The women's egg always carries the (xx) chromosome, all female with no male chromosomes at all. The man's sperm on the other hand can have a (xy) chromosome (producing a girl baby) or a (yy) chromosome (producing a boy baby.)

There are a few very important physical differences between the "girl" sperm and the "boy" sperm. The girl sperm is physically larger, stronger (longer lived), and slower swimmers (slower to reach the egg.) The boy sperm of course are smaller, faster, and more fragile (tend to die off quicker.)

By taking advantage of these differences one is able to tip the odds in favor of conceiving a baby girl. How? Well, by charting your ovulation cycle (knowing the exact day you will ovulate) you should have sex normally throughout the month, but abstain from intercourse three days prior to ovulation until at least three days after. You do this to take advantage of the fragility of the boy sperm, they tend to all die off before the egg comes down and are therefore unable to fertilize it, leaving only the longer-lived girl sperm to do the deed, resulting in the beautiful baby girl you wanted.

Have To Get A Baby Girl - Use The Right Position When Trying To Conceive

When you're trying to have a baby girl, the position you have sex in while trying to conceive comes into play as well. Again because the girl sperm are tougher than the boy sperm you want to give them all a long and difficult journey to the egg. This helps to ensure the boy sperm all die off before even getting to the egg. So when trying to conceive a girl baby, the man should practice very shallow penetration, especially when ejaculation occurs. The actual position you use during sex is of less importance when wanting a girl, just remember to deposit the sperm near the opening of the vagina. Not only do you want a long trip for the sperm, if wanting to have a girl, you will also want to increase your body's acidity to give even more certainty to the boy sperms demise.

To give yourself the best chance of having a the baby girl you need, Rebecca's ebook is highly recommended! For the cost of a family nite out for a pizza you can almost guarantee your success!

5 Most Popular Old Wives Tales

Old wives tales concerning pregnancy and determining the gender of the unborn baby have been around for a long time. How long? Well, probably as long as "old wives" (sorry I couldn't resist lol) and babies have been around.

Is there any truth to them? I would be inclined to say yes, some of these old wives tales are probably based on some fact. Should you believe what they tell you about your baby's gender, well I wouldn't put too much weight on your findings using any of these old wives tales. I would just relax and have some fun with them.

Lets take a look at 5 of the most popular old wives tales:

1. The wedding ring test-This method of determining your unborn baby's gender is easy to do and is very popular. It consists of having the mother-to-be lie on her back while suspending (tie it on a thread or better yet a strand of the mothers hair) her wedding ring (or any small metallic object) over her belly, or palm. If the ring starts to move back and forth in a straight line you'll be having a girl, if it moves in a circular motion it'll be a boy.

2.The Drano test-I hesitated to include this one, because Drano is a very caustic and dangerous chemical, so if you decide to try this old wives tale you're on your own and cannot hold me responsible in any way! If you want to give it a try anyway here's how you go about it: Save some of your first urine in the morning, and carefully (you could produce dangerous fumes, or other chemical reactions) pour your urine into a glass jar with a small amount of Drano in it. If the Drano-urine mixture changes to a brownish color you'll have a boy, if it doesn't change color at all it'll be a girl baby.

3.How you're carrying your baby-If you're carrying your baby high in your womb you'll have a girl, if the baby is carried lower in your womb you'll be having a boy.

4.The fetal heart-rate-This old wives tale says that if the unborn baby's heart-rate is 140 beats per minute or above you'll be having a girl baby, but if it's less than 140 bpm you'll have a boy.

5.Cravings-Do you crave sweets, congratulations you'll be having a baby girl. Crave salt and/or sour foods than you'll be having a baby boy!

Conclusion

I wouldn't put much faith in these or any of the other old wives tales out there, but they can be a whole lot of fun, so just relax and enjoy experimenting with them. If you really want to know your unborn baby's sex get an ultra-sound in you 7th or 8th month. Then you will know with certainty (almost 100%) the sex of your baby. Regardless of whether you have a boy or a girl the most important thing is that you have a strong, healthy, loved baby!
