More and more often we want to plan our whole life from A to Z. We plan a career, where we will spend holidays, pregnancy and we would even like to plan the sex of the child. What to do to give birth not only to a healthy and happy child, but also to the gender of our choice. How to proceed to welcome the expected Antoś into the world instead of Antoninka or Karolinka instead of Karol. We can use several methods that will never give us 100% certainty, but will definitely increase our chances.
Everything is really decided at the moment of fertilization and it is this moment that is decisive. The sex of the child depends on the man, and actually on his sperm. They contain and carry an X chromosome and a Y chromosome. On the other hand, the female body produces only cells with the X chromosome. On the way to the egg, the sperm that enters her first wins. Y sperm are fast but short-lived, while X-carrying sperm are slow but long-lived. To give birth to a boy, fertilization should occur at the very peak of ovulation, while the order for a girl must be completed 40 hours before the expected ovulation. So the conclusion is that in order to father a boy you should hurry, in the case of a girl patience is recommended.
Very important and for some decisive is the diet we use. However, we must plan our diet several months before conception because it is a long-term process. If we dream about a girl, we must eat foods rich in calcium and magnesium, i.e. milk and milk products, leafy vegetables, beans, figs, nuts, broccoli, soybeans and groats. Our desires for a boy will be met by a diet rich in sodium and potassium, i.e. mint, cold cuts, citrus, parsley, sunflower seeds, bananas and tomatoes.
There is also a method based on chinese gender calendar. The age of the mother and the month of conception are important. The Chinese calendar gives a 99% guarantee for a boy if conception occurs in a month with the letter M, and a girl will be born if conception occurs in a month with the letter K.
The youngest method of planning the sex of the child is the so-called method saddle i.e. natural sex selection. It assumes that the egg cell is charged differently, sometimes positively, sometimes negatively. Sperm also carry a charge, the Y chromosome is negatively charged and the X chromosome is positively charged. The charge of the ovum changes cyclically. At one time it attracts only sperm with the Y chromosome, at other only with the X chromosome. To determine the optimal time of conception, it is important to determine the polarity cycles based on blood type, age, last menstrual period and cycle pattern.
Sexual abstinence before intercourse is also used, which is supposed to improve the quality and strength of sperm and their speed in reaching the egg cell. Men trying to conceive are advised not to wear tight underwear and pants, which can lead to overheating of the testicles and destruction of sperm.
We can never be sure that the method we choose will bring us success, none of them gives a 100% guarantee. It is worth trying if you really want to determine the sex of the baby before fertilization takes place.
