Today, there are many things a couple can do to select the gender of their child. There are generally two routes but going through artificial insemination can be very expensive but fortunately, there are natural ways of conceiving a boy. Some may feel guilty at the thought of wanting a particular gender but there's nothing wrong with wanting to have a boy or a girl as it comes down mostly to personal preference.
There are many different natural ways to conceiving a boy and while there's not a single method guaranteed to work, concentrating on only one method is not enough. Since you already know that the male sperm has a disadvantage to fertilizing an egg, trying multiple methods at the same time will overcome that weakness and increase your chances of conceiving a boy.
Conceiving a boy requires timing intercourse on the very day of ovulation as this presents a better advantage for the male sperm to reach the egg successfully. To determine the exact date, there are ovulation prediction kits available that are extremely accurate. Just being off by a day or two can deter your chances of conceiving a boy and giving birth to a girl instead.
The method of timing intercourse exactly on the day of ovulation is known as the Shettles method and relies on specific timing to birthing the gender of choice. While this method has not been clinically guaranteed to conceiving a boy, the chances are much better than the near 50/50 chances under normal circumstances.
Conceiving a boy starts with changing your diet to incorporate foods that make the reproductive environment more alkaline. These conditions are favorable for the male sperm to reach the egg first as an acidic environment will quickly kill them off. Change your diet by including foods high in potassium and sodium such as bananas, baked potatoes and red meats.
A woman's vagina is more acidic near the entrance and naturally alkaline near the cervix so it is essential to aim for deeper penetration sexual positions in order to deposit the sperm closer to the cervix. In addition, the woman should orgasm in the process as this releases fluids to make the reproductive environment more alkaline which is favorable to conceiving a boy.
Another method that most couples have trouble with is monitoring the woman's pH level. High pH and acidic levels are extremely unfavorable to the male sperm which will die before getting close to the egg. Lowering the pH level is done through a combination of dieting, using a douche bag and encouraging orgasm. There are testing strips available to monitor these levels to track progress.
In attempting to have a baby, many couples tend to believe that their chances of conceiving either gender are exactly split in half. This is not true as there are factors that can be controlled such as timing intercourse on the day of ovulation, monitoring pH levels, having deeper penetration intercourse and even changing diets.
However, these factors by itself are not enough to conceiving a boy but combining these methods together will significantly increase your chances. While you can resort to medical treatments that almost guarantee gender choice, they can be extremely costly. With natural methods, you have absolutely nothing to lose and even if you birth a baby girl, you'll still grow to love them just as much.
