I sometimes hear from women who feel certain that they will never be able to have a daughter. Often, they have already conceived multiple sons and have therefore become convinced that conceiving a girl is just an impossible feat for them. I heard from a woman who said: “I have three boys by two different men. But in all cases, regardless of the man, I’ve produced girls. I have just met a men that I’d like to marry. We’ve been talking about kids. He doesn’t have any children and he wants a girl. I told him that I think I’m unable to conceive a girl and he says that this is crazy. Is he right?”
If You Do Nothing, The Odds Always Reset At 50 Percent: Well, I certainly didn’t think that this woman was crazy. But I did think that her reasoning was incorrect. Because actually, it is the man or father’s sperm that contributes to the baby’s gender. More specifically, a man produces equal numbers of Y and X sperm. X sperm produces girl babies and Y produces boys. Which sperm chromosome fertilizes the egg first determines your baby’s gender.
You pretty much have equal odds or either occurring, much in the same way that you have equal odds of a flipped coin coming up heads or tails. Think of it this way. If you flipped a coin four times in a row, is it conceivable that it would land on heads or tails four times in a row? Of course it is. And actually, the odds are still going to be about fifty percent for each flip of the coin. Coins don’t have memory or emotions. They don’t know if you got heads on the last flip. So each time, you are going to have the same equal odds. Basically, you are starting over each time with the possibility of one or the other.
There Are Things A Woman Can Do To Help Get The Gender She Wants: The same odds described above is true of gender. The sperm chromosomes that are fighting for the egg have absolutely no idea that you already have boys or girls. Essentially, they are there in equal numbers, and, if you do nothing to intervene luck or chance has a good deal to do with your end result. However, with that said, while the man’s sperm ratio doesn’t change, there are changes in a woman’s body that can have an effect on her baby’s gender.
The first is timing. If she has intercourse before ovulation, a girl is more likely. If she has an orgasm during sex, then a boy is more likely. If her PH is acidic, then that favors a girl. And if it is alkaline, this favors a boy. In this case, this woman really wanted a girl. So she should definitely control a few things. While she couldn’t change anything about the father-to-be’s sperm, she could conceive early and before ovulation. She could avoid orgasm and she could make sure that her PH was acidic (either through food, douching or both.) And she could use shallow positions when having sex. All of these things would help to diminish some of the boy sperm and help some of the girl sperm make it to the egg.
Remember that flipping the coin scenario I described above? Well imagine if instead of one coin you now had four coins? And what if three of those coins only had heads on both sides? Would your odds of getting heads increase? Of course they would. And it is the same idea when you are tweaking your PH and conceiving early. You are giving yourself additional chances to get the gender that you want. You can’t remove the Y or boy producing sperm, but you can reduce their numbers (by conceiving early and having an acidic PH) which in turn increases your odds.
So to answer the question posed, I didn’t think this woman was unable to conceive a girl. Her PH might naturally be alkaline or she might make it a habit to orgasm when she tried to conceive. Or perhaps she always waited until after ovulation to attempt to become pregnant. All of these things could be changed. And all of these things would increase her changes of getting a girl this time around.
