How To Conceive A Girl

by Harry Regan on 11/07/2009

Baby girls are so cute. They’re cuddly and they’re full of love. Baby boys are too, but if you have not had any luck with having a daughter, then you’re probably wondering how to conceive a girl. Well, there are certain techniques that have worked for millions of couples around the world to conceive and welcome a beautiful baby girl into their lives.

There are many couples who believe that expensive and risky clinical methods are the only answer to the question of how to conceive a girl. While, that may be true to a certain extent, it still not an absolute certainty that you will even become pregnant using lab techniques, let alone conceive a girl. Therefore, it makes sense to try natural techniques as well.

Did you know that men are the ones who determine the sex of the baby? If you remember from your high school biology classes, it’s the X or Y chromosomes in the sperm that ultimately dictate whether a male or female will develop from the fertilized egg. Remember also, that eggs contain only the X chromosome, so if it’s a X sperm that fertilizes the egg, you’ll have a baby girl.

What many people may not be aware of is the lifespan of sperm once it leaves the male’s body. Sperm can live up to 5 to 7 days inside the female body depending on the reproductive environment, such as whether she is ovulating and cervical mucus conditions, etc.

It is a 50 percent chance that you will have either a male or female. Once the sperm is ejaculated into the woman’s body, do you know that the X or female sperm swims slower than the Y or male sperm? However, the female sperm is known for living longer than the male, so it all evens out and provides a basis for determining how to conceive a girl.

The timing of intercourse is extremely important. You will need to keep track of your ovulation cycle. Most techniques for how to conceive a girl rely on the fact that because of the slower movement of the longer lasting X sperm through the female reproductive tract, it is better to have intercourse a few days before ovulation and then abstaining for the rest of the time. This boosts the chances that X sperm will fertilize the egg when it is released into the fallopian tube.

Your chances of having a baby girl can be increased if you understand how to conceive a girl using natural methods. There is probably no way short of clinical intervention that you’ll be assured of a gender specific pregnancy. Even then you are only increasing the odds incrementally, but at a higher cost.
