Timing Intercourse To Choose The Gender Of Your Child

1. Timing Intercourse to Choose the Gender of Your Child
While there are no guarantees when it comes to natural gender
selection, there are a few things that can be done to increase the
likelihood of having a little boy or a little girl. If you are
specifically wanting a baby boy or girl, it certainly doesn’t hurt to
try a few natural techniques. You may not get the gender you want,
but it sure is fun trying and the result is the same regardless – a
happy and healthy baby, and that is what really matters.
In order to understand how the timing of when you have sex can
impact the gender of your child it is important to look at two
different things – first, how ovulation works and second, how the
differences in sperm affect this timing. Let's look at ovulation first.
Every month, there is a window of fertility that is approximately
five days long. Three days prior to ovulation to one day following
ovulation are the best times to conceive. Remember, the egg only
has 24 hours of viability, and that sperm can live for up to five
days in the reproductive tract. Each woman is different however,
but this is the generally accepted "window of fertility" that occurs
every month.
So, now that you've narrowed it down to five days of the month
where you are fertile, it's time to figure out how to time your
intercourse to choose the gender of your child. Let's take a look at
the differences in sperm that carry the chromosomes that decide
gender.
A sperm carrying the Y chromosome will result in a boy if it
successfully fertilizes the egg. A sperm carrying the X
chromosome will result in a girl. There are some main differences
in these sperm that are important to understand. The Y sperm are
very small, but also very quick and agile. The main downside is
that they don't live very long. The X sperm are bigger and much
slower, but on the flip side, they live a lot longer.
Keeping this in mind, now let's move to timing. In order to have a
boy, it is vital to allow the Y sperm the time they need to reach the

2. egg as quickly as possible. This means that you need to time
intercourse on the day that you ovulate. The Y sperm won't live
much longer than that 24 hour period that the egg is viable and you
need to give them that chance to meet the egg before they expire.
On the other hand, if you want to have a girl, you should time
intercourse to two to three days prior to ovulation. During this
time, the Y sperm will have died out, leaving the slower but more
durable X sperm behind. This greatly increases the chances that
you will have a girl.
There are many other factors that can effect the gender of your
child such as diet, and even the sexual position that you use, but
timing it properly can help you naturally select your child's gender.
