Dear G.P
I have 2 girls who I love dearly but I would really like to have a baby boy.Is there anything I can do to increase my chances of having a baby boy.
Yours
Mrs H
If you are trying to get pregnant with a boy there are some things you can do to improve your chances. You may have heard of the Shettles method for trying to conceive a specific gender.The Shettles method is said to be about 80-90% effective for conceiving a boy when followed correctly.
Basically, men produce two types of sperms, the X (female) and Y (male). According to Dr. Shettles’ studies the y-sperms are smaller, weaker, but faster than their siblings x-sperms, which are bigger, stronger, but slower.
Based on this fact, there are several things you can do to “favor” the conception of boys or girls:
Timing
The most important aspect of all is timing of intercourse during the monthly cycle. The closer to ovulation you have sex, the better the chances to have a boy, because the y-sperms are faster and tend to get to the egg first.Ideally, you will want to have intercourse on the day you ovulate.
Orgasms
When trying to conceive a boy, Shettles suggests that orgasms during sex are a good thing as the body produces substances after orgasm that makes the vaginal environment more alkaline, which favors the “boy” sperm.
The contractions which accompany an orgasm help move the sperm up and into the cervix, giving the “boy” sperm an extra chance at being available when your egg is available for fertilization.
Note: Some women are naturally very acidic and have a hard time conceiving boys.
Position
Shettles suggests that if you are trying to conceive a boy, deep penetration from your partner, preferably with the “doggy style” position, will deposit the sperm closer to the cervix giving the more aggressive and quicker moving “boy” sperm a head start to fertilizating the egg first.
Considerations for the Men
Shettles recommends that for boys, the man wear loose underwear only — that is, men who usually wear briefs or other tight underwear should switch to boxers.
The idea is the same as wearing boxers to increase overall fertility — the testicles need cooler temperatures for sperms to survive, and the Y-sperms, since they are weaker, will be helped more than the X-sperms by this method.
However, Shettles does NOT recommend the opposite, that men wear briefs for a girl — this will just decrease overall fertility.
Also, for a girl, the man is supposed to take a hot bath immediately before intercourse. “Room temperature” is fine for a boy. The idea is the same as the briefs versus boxers — give the X- sperms an advantage.
Coffee
Finally, in trying for a boy, Shettles recommends a nice cup of caffeinated coffee for the man, right before sex — he isn’t clear on how or why this works, but apparently it gives the Y-sperms a jolt!
Good luck!

I’m not sure if these methods work.hmmmm just embrace what God gives you people!
Yeah this is what am talking about.Ba LT mumufunishe kwisa uyu doctor ? Bet i have learnt something meaningful here.
I ve 2 handsome boys and i want a girl guess i ve to make unfavorable conditions for boys.but i ve read somewhere were it has been discovered that Y sperms are weak as compared to x sperms thus thats why we have more women than men.
Yaaba, yakumbuyo chabe!!!! Ndokotar nalanda kale…
Doggystyle bane……
LT why didn’t you just send this article direct to Mushota?
Most Zambians knows which roots to chew for girl or boy. If you don’t know, since I know you, I can tell you FREE of charge.
Selako Ntambe ati roots ka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its true ati utwakusheta sheta sold mostly by mobile elderly women.
Some women are naturally very acidic and have a hard time conceiving boys
very educative article,I ve learnt something.
Yes what the GP is saying is true scientifically but ultimately a child comes from God. Period. Keep your prayers more prominent as you try to implement the advise from the GP.
iya mbwa naiwama sana.thank you coz iam now seeing a boy child coming my way.
Another view. For a boy try having sex after a meal. A man will still be strong and chances of Y chromosomes become high. Starve your man for two weeks and advise him not to have extra marital affair during the period. Drink tea with 3 tea spoons of real pure honey before action.In case your man is getting old. These support some theories above. Finally trust in God who gives everything. Isaiah 66.1-2. God bless you others dont even have children.. Vote for RB who allows such forums.
I have three boys and one girl, the girl coming after the first two boys and all of them have been by ‘choice’, thanks to my biology teacher. What she taught me is that if you want a boy, have sex when your wife has just ovulated. The y chromosomes swim faster and are more likely to reach the ‘ripe’ ovum and penetrate it before the x ones arrive. The y chromosomes will die within 24 hours while the y ones will live for up to 72 hours. If you have sex, say, 36 hours before ovulation it is most likely that you will have a girl as most of the y chromosomes will have died by the time the ovum falls into the fallopian tube. If the woman has a regular monthly cycle she is likely to ovulate on the 12th day counting from the first day of her menstruation.
I have two gorgeous boys, I guess we have to do the opposite of what doctor has said for a girl?
Hahaha, I’ve never seen LT bloggers agree on one topic.
I am writing this down, it is actually good non Vulgar advice.
I am really liking this Mwe hahahahahaha.
Sorry to say but this is wishful thinking. Children are a blessing from God and God brings us on this earth in accordance to his purpose. Wait upon the Almighty God. Please be happy with what you have as they are a gift from on High.
..While it is true that Children come from God, the same God has given us knowledge to understand nature. We can not deny the fact that we now understand more than we did years back and their is no magic about it. I first heard this from my wife who read it on the net…and I do appreciate knowlegde. Thanx be to the lord for giving us the wisdom to understand nature!
The saying that “children are a gift from God” is very true just like common story about a lion attack in the bush. God’z help came by way of the victim climbing up a tree and the same often appliez in a lot other situationz.
But the doggy style is rarely used in marriage but in satanic times
..How you mount your woman is your own busines provided the two of you are comfortable with it. We are just used to the missionary position a lot more than the doggy…Nothing wrong at all, it is about how you enjoy it the most….
