9 March 2010 9 Responses

A Parent asks, Just wondering if it is as reliable as they say it is, only having sex on certain days before you ovulate for girl and on highly fertile and after for a boy? What do you think? Has it ever worked for you? What else have you dont to try and inflence the sex of your baby? Just interested.

    An egg timer is usually best for this procedure.

    I know that no matter who you are everyone has an idea on how many kids they want and what they want them to be, and when the time comes I know all mothers and fathers will love their children no matter what.

    That is just it though, God is the only one who will make your baby a boy or a girl no matter what methods you use. My advice; pray, God will always listen to the desires of you heart!

    God Bless

    You are referring to “The Shettles Method”. I used it for my first child because I wanted a boy…I now have a handsome son named Ty! Basically Male sperm swim faster and live shorter lives, female sperm swim slower and live longer…so for a boy, sex as close to ovulation as possible. For a girl, sex a few days before ovulation…good luck!

    That never works! As you can catch at anytime as your ovulation can change from month to month as is not reliable.

    You can’t do anything, short of gender selection medically. It is the father’s genes that determine the gender of the baby. Nothing else changes that.
