Posts: 1 11/01/09 15:22:00	Tags : trying, girl Hi Ladys, I am a stay-at-home mom to 5 wonderful boys. However in talking with my Husband, we somehow both felt that somewhere between boys 4 and 5 it would have been kool for God to throw a little girl in there. Now with 2 in school and another starting next year, we have started trying to conceive again. I love my boys dearly and wouldn't trade them for anything but we do wish to add a little girl to this family. I have searched many ways over the web and followed many advices, with no results and a lot of frustration. If anyone has any suggestions, please message this. Note that, I do not want to spend money on these over the counter cenception kits nor am I willing to spend the 5,000 to 12, 000 to implant, ecspecially considering that we are beginning to think, that my husband just doesn't make girls. I am just looking for helpful hints that may have worked for other women. Thanks

If you can try and stick to BD 10-14 days after your LMP and then don't BD beyond that, especially stop after a +OPK. If you chart, you may even realize that you O sooner than that, and that is when you should stop. I think this was supppppooosedly one reason why women were supposed to be "unclean" for two weeks after starting their AF, to ensure more "male pregnancies." The belief isn't for everyone, just some people. But studies do suggest that female and male sperm act differently, male sperm being faster, stronger and shorter lived. Female sperm can live and hang on until that eggy arrives... so if you had sex many times before O, and more female sperm were around and alive during the O, they would be in the right place at the right time, beating out the male sperm. Welcome to PH! "If you need rules to be kind and just, if you act virtuous, this is a sure sign that virtue is absent. Thus we see the great hypocrisy.."
