Conceiving A Boy
How to Conceive a Baby Boy
Conceiving a boy is possible if you know a few easy techniques. I once knew a woman who had 5 girls and each time she wanted a boy. She was desperate of giving her husband the boy he desired. I wish I knew then what I know now about conceiving a boy, maybe I would have been able to give her some advice. There are number of things couples can do in order to increase their chances of conceiving a baby boy naturally. These techniques are not 100% effective, but they provide a great deal of information and following them will certainly increase the odds of getting pregnant with a boy.
Scientists have discovered that the Y or male sperm is weaker, has a lower survival rate, but swims faster than the X or female sperm. A male sperm will most likely fertilize the egg if:
1.If you have intercourse 12 hours before ovulation. The male sperms can swim faster and reach the egg before the female sperm.
2. If you track your ovulation signs using a ovulation monitor and know when you are about to ovulate.
3. If you have intercourse using a sexual position (e.g. missionary) that causes deep penetration.
4. If you follow a specific diet that causes the cervical mucus pH to be more alkaline.
Conceiving a Boy Diet
Your diet is the first way to help your body be more alkaline. Avoid dairy products, lower magnesium and calcium supplements and increase vegetables, fresh fruits like bananas. Increase foods that contain potassium. Alkalinizing foods include: figs, cherries, fresh lemons, kamut pasta, spelt bread, lentils, avocado, royal jelly, pine nuts, almonds, carrots, red radish, fresh red beets, alfalfa grass, barley grass, sprouted seeds, wheatgrass.
Supplements for Conceiving A Boy
Evening Primrose Oil is said to increase the quality of cervical mucus and help support male sperm survival in the female reproductive tract. Male sperm is weaker than female sperm and survives for a shorter period of time once released.
It needs to get to the egg first and as soon as possible. On a good note, male sperm can swim faster than female sperm. So, if the woman's fertile mucus is high in quantity, male sperm can be nourished to survive longer.
Evening Primrose Oil increases fertile mucus production and it should be taken when your menses stop until ovulation.
Taking another dietary supplement like FertileCM to increase production of healthy fertile mucus can help if you know you do not produce enough clear and stretchy cervical mucus.
In fact, while conceiving a boy, it is important to have lots of cervical mucus to support male sperm survival.
Best Sex Position for Conceiving a Boy
In order to conceive a boy, couples should achieve deep penetration during intercourse. The idea is to deposit the sperm as close as possible to the cervix in order to shorten the distance the male sperm have to travel in order to reach the egg. Since they swim faster but are weaker and die first, it is important to give them an advance over the female sperm.
Ovulation and Timing
To increase your chances of having a male sperm reach the egg, it is important to time intercourse right at ovulation. If you do not know exactly when you ovulate, you need to learn how to chart your fertility signs in order to detect ovulation. Ovulation kits can definitely help you achieve this task.
A fertility monitor like Ovacue will help you detect your fertile days a couple of days in advance, timing is the key! Once you know you are about to ovulate, have intercourse at least 12-24 hours before ovulation. The closer to ovulation you have intercourse, the higher your chances of conceiving a baby boy.
Why? Because the male sperms swim faster than the female sperm. Also, male sperm does not live as long, so you need to have sex often and as close as possible to ovulation.
If you manage to have intercourse just before, lots of healthy male sperm will be swimming around ready to fertilize the egg once it is released from the ovary.
If you have intercourse right on the day before your ovulation, the male sperm will reach the egg first because they swim faster and because there will be lots of them. The likelihood of conceiving a boy greatly increases.
The Impotence of pH When Conceiving a Boy
The pH of the vagina should be alkaline in order to support male sperm. In fact, male sperms need an environment that is not acidic. In order to check the pH of your cervical mucus, you can purchase at your local health food store pH stripes and test just before ovulation. If your pH is acidic you need to increase it to alkaline levels through your diet by eating acid forming foods.
Douching
Douching with baking soda is recommended only in women who are really acidic. Add two tablespoons of baking soda in lukewarm water, mix gently and allow the enough time for the baking soda to be completed dissolved. Apply the douche using a disposable douche bottle from a pharmacy. Make sure to rinse thoroughly to avoid contamination. Many practitioners do not recommend extensive douching while trying to conceive. It is best to make your vagina alkaline by eating the right kind of food first.
Female Orgasm When Conceiving A Boy
The women should reach orgasm during intercourse when trying to conceive a boy. Having an orgasm changes the pH level of the cervical mucus to a more alkaline value. Also, a low pH or acidic pH will cause the male sperm to die sooner than the female one, which can survive longer in an acidic environment. A alkaline environment increases the survival rate of the male sperm.
The Father's Role
It is important to avoid ejaculation up to 4 days before ovulation. The idea here is to release sperm in the female reproductive tract only at ovulation to have as many male sperm as possible. By avoiding ejaculation for a number of days, the sperm count increases and the likelihood of having male sperm is higher.
The father should also avoid excess heating around the genitals because heat destroys male sperm faster than female ones. Avoid, tight fitting underwear, saunas, hot tubs, bicycling, etc.
If the male partner has low sperm count, it is important to help increase by avoiding drugs, alcohol, illness, stress, coffee, toxic exposure, smoking, and cell phones. Increase moderate levels of regular exercise.
Learn relaxation techniques and consider taking fertility vitamins that increase sperm count and improve male fertility.
My Advice
I have tried my best to explain how to conceive a boy using natural methods, but I have to admit I am not an expert on this topic because when I was trying to conceive I was just happy to have a positive pregnancy test.
The sex of the baby was not important to me. On a positive note, I can tell you that looking back I remember eating a lot of meat while trying to conceive my first son because my iron levels were low and I was underweight. When I got pregnant with my daughter I was craving pickles, cottage cheese, and yogurt. With my last boy I had a daily banana fertility smoothie.
I am not trying to saying that this system works for sure because I have not tested it myself, but I can tell you that if you really want a boy, it is worth the afford. I find that women who follow this type of techniques while trying to conceive gain an incredible amount of knowledge about their body, the ovulation process, and how conception works that I think it is quite useful even for those who are just trying to conceive a baby.
