I suspect that, if you are reading this then you want to, or are in the process of trying to conceive a boy.
Do not be conned into thinking that you have to pay thousands to select the gender of your next baby.
You don't have to.
There are actually 3 things that you have to consider when wanting to get pregnant with a boy and I shall outline them here.
They are all natural, safe, and effective both results-wise and financially.
Two Types of Sperm Yup, that's right.
There are two types of sperm and the one that fertilises the egg will determine whether you have a girl or a boy baby.
X= girl Y=boy Both X and Y have different characteristics and you can use this fact to your advantage.
In this article I shall focus on Y and indeed, why.
Y oh Y oh Y oh Y Y's are FAST.
They are WEAK.
They DIE QUICKLY.
The 3 factors that you can monitor and then adjust to suit the Y's are: ·         Ovulation ·         Position ·         PH Ovualtion Y sperm are very short lived.
If you conceive too far away from the date of ovulation then you are likely to get a girl.
Why? The Y sperm will have died off while waiting for the egg to arrive.
To greatly increase your chances of getting a boy you need to pinpoint your ovulation and conceive on that day or the day after thus ensuring the egg is there and ready to be fertilised.
You can check when you are due to ovulate using a number of methods.
Some are more reliable than others.
·         Temperature ·         Cervical Mucus ·         Calendar ·         Ovulation predicting kits In my opinion it is a good idea to go for the ovulation prediction kit as the other methods have too much scope for error really.
Saliva testing kits are available which seem to be very accurate.
Position Yes, Y sperm are very fast swimmers but, if positioned a long way away from their goal then they will most certainly die on the journey to the egg, allowing the X sperm to pass and fertilise the egg.
To avoid this happening conceive using a deeply penetrating position, leaving the sperm as close to the cervix as possible.
PH levels Don't be put off by this.
It is not difficult to change your ph.
Y sperm are not very hardy and need a really alkaline environment to survive.
You can make yourself alkaline by consuming foods that are alkaline and avoiding ones that are acidic.
You can also use a specific alkaline douche recipe (some gender selection clinics charge up to $450 for this but you can make it at home!).
If you don't want to douche then you can just change your diet but it will not be as effective.
