How to Have a Baby Girl

If you are not interested in genetic engineering or artificial insemination, there is no certain way of conceiving one gender versus the other. There are, however, various theories about how to increase your chances of a specific gender.
Selecting a Baby’s Gender
According to surveys more than 90% of expectant parents have a preference in regard to their unborn child’s gender. The reasons behind the preferences are varied, and when parents don’t get their wish, they adapt and are overjoyed to welcome any new baby to their home. But if you are ready for a baby girl and want to try to tip the scales, here’s how:
The Shettles Method
Doctor Shettles penned the most popular method designed to increase the chances of a girl. Before beginning the method, you must understand the rationale behind it. Women produce an egg every month during ovulation. The egg is always carrying an X chromosome. Two Xs make a girl and one X (the egg) plus one Y make a boy.
Men are responsible for the second X or Y. Each sperm is assigned one chromosome. When a male ejaculates, he sends 200-400 million sperm into the vagina that immediately begin searching for the released egg. Out of those millions, only one sperm gets the prize, and the chromosome of that one unites with the X of the egg, and the miracle has begun.
The Shettles method offers instruction on how to get more X-carrying sperm to the egg and beat out the Ys.
Conceiving a Girl
To actively work at conceiving a girl, you must know your cycle. Chart your cycle for a couple of months to see what day you begin your period and what day you are ovulating. You can do this using an ovulation kit or basal temperature. Then, once you know the day you will ovulate, begin having sex immediately following the end of your period. Have sex at least once a day until two or three days before ovulation. Then stop. (Sorry, guys.)
Y-carrying sperm swim faster than X-carrying sperm. The boy-makers also tend to die out more quickly. By stopping three days before ovulation, you are ensuring the only sperm left waiting around for the released egg are the longer-lasting, slow-swimming X-carriers. (Sperm can live up to 5-7 days inside a woman’s body.) When the remaining sperm meet up with the egg, it is far more likely an X sperm will get the honors.
Doctor Shettles also suggests having sex in the missionary position to deposit sperm as close to the entrance of the vagina as possible. He also suggests the woman not orgasm during sex (Sorry, girls.) An orgasm can make the vaginal environment alkaline which can kill off sperm more quickly preventing any pregnancy.

Yeah I have two boys, 6 and 9, and two years ago I wanted a little girl. So I followed the e book method and I got three beautiful girls. My sister did the same and got two girls and a boy, in triplets.
Hi,
I wanted to share my story with you. After having 2 beautiful boys, we gave birth to a daughter 3 years ago. Unfortunately we lost her to SIDS at 5 days of age. We were devastated. 15 months later we had another beautiful son whom we love dearly, but our hearts still ached for another little girl.
I discovered Natural baby gender selection methods and decided to give it a try. Three months after subscribing I fell pregnant using the dates you supplied. I was convinced this would be a girl, but my husband was sceptical. I went for a scan at thirteen weeks and was told I was having another boy. All I kept thinking was that maybe, the scan was wrong so I kept up hope.
Anyway, at 21 weeks I had a full scan and asked what the sex was. I was expecting the answer to be a boy, but to my excitement, the doctor told me I was having a girl. I couldn’t believe it, so I made him double check and he was right. My husband and I were ecstatic.
We gave birth to our gorgeous baby girl named Grace on May 22nd which is actually the same day our first daughter was born 3 years earlier. How Bizarre!! I would like to thank http://Alals.com with all of my heart for their wonderful program which has made our lives complete.

This is so stupid. You should only care about your child being healthy!
I agree that health is the only thing that is important. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t have a preference! I have a wonderful baby boy and when we try for number two I am going to use these tips so we can hopefully have a girl as well! If it doesn’t happen, oh well! But it doesn’t hurt to try!
didnt work
My husband and I have two wonderfull little boys 5 and 3 and would like to try one more time for a little girl! This is our last chance. I have spent hours researcing differnt ways and am willing to try ANYTHING…i allready read up on ph levels and ovulation days but this is all i’m really finding…is there any other options!!!!
I know there are lots of people out there who obviously have a problem with me wanting a girl…i do not care what you think so please keep your comments to your self..
Hi,
I also have 2 wonderful boys 4 and 2. I m 13 weeks pregnant and i m hoping for a little baby girl! My friends also don t like it when i tell them that i only want a girl now, they would tell me to be happy as long it is healthy.
They are right, i want a healthy little girl of course. Good luck to you:)
Hi,
I had 2 little boys as well and really wanted my 3rd to be a girl I found out it wasn’t and it was a lot harder on me than I thought it would be. I always told myself I am hoping for a girl but if its not I am ok with it. I ended up crying on and off for about a week but it wasn’t that I was having a boy it was that I was not having a girl. Anyways, I was going to try this and we ended up having an oops, but good thing I want to have 4 kids because my husband and I can try again for a girl. These methods do work though if you are really on top of it. My mom had 3 girls then tried for a boy got it and then ended up having 2 more girls.
There IS another option for you though. It is called sperm washing. You have to go to a fertility clinic and they will take a donation from your husband, wash it to remove either male or female sperm and any unhealth ones and then when you are ovulating they put the remaining donation into your body. There is still some natural selection involved but it just takes some of the stress off of timing and diet and everything else.
The only reason I am not going to try this is because it was going to take way to long to get into the clinic and timing was I want to get pregnant in the next couple of months. I am far more prepared to end up with a 4th boy than I was the 3rd but I have a very happy, health little angle who I have ended up connecting with far more than my older two boys.
Good Luck!
hi there i am in the same position my children are both boys an the same age as yours i am now 17 weeks pregnant and so hoping for a girl i dont care what anyone thinks of me all i know is i love both my boys with all my heart and i would never change them but i just feel i need my own little princess i read up on the dr shettles method its all about dates and times, i done what it said to a t apart from the whole douching thing thats not for me so fingers crossed for both you and me lol

It is fact if you keep on doing the same proceedure with knowing the right proceedure, The result will be the same.

Me and my husband put that formula in action and I just gave birth to my always wanted baby girl. I will advise all of you to read that book as this is the knowledge we all humam should have.

I did order this book but a bit confused after reading this as in the book it has advised a woman realases after the male after reading everything on internet I thought a woman is not suppose to come as this creates alkaline and not mentioned anything like to do it 3 days before ovulation or anything?
ok..so if i’m understanding this right..if i want to have a girl..which i do..sooooo much!! i have sex every day after my period ends but stop 2 to 3 days before I ovulate..and dont have sex at all on my ovulation days?
Has anyone tried this method with success?
i will let you know in a few months!
