Gender of your baby

To what extent would you try to manipulate the gender of your next baby? I know some couples you have 2 boys and are tyring hard to get a girl. And some who always have girls and would like to have a son. There are those Chinese Pregnancy Calendars, the basal tempertaure, scientific ways etc. To what extent will you go?

I believe in natural ways that are done at home to sway getting a girl or a boy. I don't think the gender of a first baby matters but if wanted just to have two children getting the opposite gender might matter. I know a lady that had six sons when I met her. She swayed to get the girl she had always wanted but she got a seventh boy. She had treatment and got triplet girls.

As I was just saying that lady had three girls. She already had the name Elle in mind but had to choose two more names. She went to Turkey because of the cheap price of the treatment that isn't legal in my home country. I would eat a particular diet and test ph levels as well as use position to get a girl. I have two boys and one girl.

It's all a matter of choice. Some couples have tried many times to have a girl (they may already have 3 boys), so I guess they wanted a balance in the family. Gender selection is, therefore, fine. For me, I'd just let nature take its course until I see a need to select the gender of our baby.

It would be nice to have a balance - a boy for daddy and a girl for mummy....

That is a good question. I just think there are some things that are good to do and some things that are going to far. It hink anything natural would be something you can try but there are many things you can do naturally to influence the s. of the baby. I would be for any kind of natural thing to influence the gender.

My husband and his whole family want to have a boy. I am ok with two ,boy or girl ,i don't care. And i don't think those kind of stuff can make you have what you want.

I so know the requirement from inlaws to have a boy.....maybe that is why the Chinese Pregnancy Calendar came into effect. Either way, I hope you and your hubby will live peacefully with your kids...boy or girl!
