If you have always wanted a baby girl or maybe you have had a boy and you want to complete the family with a little girl then you are probably interested in gender selection for your next child.
This article will cover how to conceive a girl.
It will cover the main idea on how people go about conceiving one sex or the other and then point out a few ways of doing this.
The important thing that you have to think about when you want to conceive a baby girl is the timing of sexual intercourse.
The sex of the baby is determined by the father's sperm.
If the sperm is a Y chromosome then the child will be a boy.
If it is X chromosome then the baby will be a girl.
For this reason Y chromosome sperm are often referred to as male sperm and X chromosome sperm are referred to a female sperm.
Male sperm have different characteristics to female sperm.
Male sperm are fast moving but have a shorter life span.
Female sperm have a longer life span but are slower moving.
So with this in mind the closer the sperm is deposited to the egg the more chance that the baby will be a boy.
And the opposite applies if you want a baby girl.
In practical terms this means that if you have sex even a few days before ovulation there is a better chance that you will conceive a girl.
The position that you use to have sexual intercourse will also influence how easy it is for the sperm to reach the egg.
This could also determine whether your baby is male or female.
