Many individuals insist that the sole thing that matters is actually giving birth to a healthy baby, but one latest survey of prospective mums and dads identified that approximately 80% admitted to a preference for one certain gender. Actually, almost 84% of parents who made a decision to have an ultrasound examination to find out the baby’s gender said dealing with any potential frustration prior to birth was a substantial element in their decision.

As you may expect, mothers have a tendency to prefer daughters, while fathers usually express a greater desire for sons. However, parents who currently have a child of one gender usually wish for the opposite gender on the next pregnancy to produce a more balanced family.

How To Conceive A Girl Naturally?

There are certain things that you should learn to increase your chances of conceiving a girl and it includes:

  • Ovulation – conceiving a girl
  • A man’s sperm
  • Foods to eat
  • Alteration in your body’s PH level
  • Sexual positions that will increase the chances of conceiving a girl

Ovulation – Conceiving A Girl

Ovulation prediction with great accuracy is very essential because hypothetically, if you are trying to conceive near to your ovulation, the male sperm have an advantage because they are faster and will pass the egg first. However, if you take a long gap in the time frame a few days earlier, you will increase your chances of conceiving a baby girl because the weaker Y sperm will not survive before the egg is released, leaving the stronger, longer surviving Y sperm in greater numbers.

This theory can be a big help but it is not so reliable because very few women can predict ovulation to the day, much less to the hour.

A Man’s Sperm

It is important to have an idea in natural gender selection is to learn that the sperm chromosomes that will make a daughter or girl (X) and the ones that will make a son (Y) conduct themselves quite differently. The sperm that carries a male child are fast, but are quite weak, and frequently breaks up and dies in the vaginal canal in one to two days. The male’s sperm journey is even shorter if the vaginal tract is extremely acidic. Methods that don’t demand strength, but that rely on speed can help if you want to conceive a boy.

The sperm that carries the chances of having a girl are slow-moving and poky, but are very tough and lasting. They can stay for up to 4 days waiting for the egg without weakening or dying out. So conception techniques that do not call for speed but depend alternatively on strength are the better way to go here.

Because the girl sperm are very robust and can linger for number of days waiting for the release of the egg, you are able to conceive around 3 days before ovulation. This time is enough to allow the male child sperm to die before ovulation.

However, you should cease trying to conceive after that 3rd day prior. If you don’t, you’ll grant the speedy, male child sperm to be around in the rush for the egg.

Alteration In Your Body’s PH

The vagina’s natural PH plays an important role here and it is very important in trying to conceive a girl. It is a fact that an acidic PH will give the X sperm (girls) a distinct edge since the environment will be too harsh for the Y (boy) sperm. It is helpful to make the environment of your vagina acidic to up the odds in conceiving a girl baby. When conceiving during a window of ovulation can be such a fast moving, and difficult target, the vaginal acidity and PH is what evens out that playing field when the conception timing was not quite as most favorable as it should have been. In those cases, eating certain and specific foods can alter PH as well.

What Are The Foods To Eat To Conceive A Girl?

One of the certain things that you should learn in trying to conceive a girl, or at least give you a higher chance of conceiving a girl is to alter your diet. Modifying your diet will in turn alter your body’s PH balance. To conceive a girl a diet higher in magnesium, calcium and acidic foods are advised.

These are acidic foods, some even more acidic than others would think. The more acid intake you have, the lower your PH level is going to be, making your body a pretty inhospitable place to be. This in effect will most likely kill off the male sperm, and allow the girl sperm a greater chance of reaching the egg and fertilising it.

Here is the short list of foods to eat:

  • corn
  • meat
  • beans
  • fish
  • plums
  • coffee
  • eggs
  • liver
  • yogurt

To conceive a girl, it is also advisable to avoid alkaline based foods, because this will help in optimal chance of having a baby girl, and create a less suitable environment for the boy sperm.

This can include, but is not limited to foods such as:

  • bananas
  • orange
  • potatoes
  • watermelon

Sexual Positions That Will Increase The Chances Of Conceiving A Girl

The type of thrusting strokes the man uses during sexual intercourse can also affect the chances between conceiving a boy and conceiving a girl. Deep or shallow penetration can make a big difference.

When the man uses very deep thrusts and ejaculates his sperm deep inside the woman’s vagina, the sperm will lodge somewhere deep inside near the cervix, and as a result, it will have less space to travel to meet the egg. However, if the man uses shallow strokes and ejaculates at an angle into her vagina, the sperm may get a place closer to the opening of the vagina, and thus it will have a longer distance to travel to meet the egg. So it is for this reason that the side by side or spooning sex position, in which the man may end up ejaculating at an angle into the woman’s vagina, is more suitable to conceive a girl.

Traditional beliefs
Experts insist urban conception legends are false, but there’s really no harm in trying some of the following beliefs if you have your desire set on a baby girl:

  • Have a sexual intercourse in the afternoon.
  • Have sex with your partner during the even numbered days of the month.
  • Try to have sex during the full moon.
  • Eat lots of fish and veggies, following by a chocolate dessert.
  • Traditional beliefs saythat women who initiate sex are more likely to give birth to daughters.
