- Keep a calendar of your menstruation cycle.
- Using an ovulation test kit (available at your pharmacy near the pregnancy test kits). Determine your ovulation and include this on your calender.
- If you want to have a baby boy, you should have intercourse within hours after you ovulate. The male sperm will race up to the egg and fertilize it.
- If you want to have a baby girl, you should have intercourse several hours to a day *before* ovulation. Male sperm will race around and kill themselves looking for an egg, leaving the girl sperm sitting around waiting for the egg to come to them.
- If this is your first child, all you really want is a healthy one, don't bother doing this unless you are young & healthy & your parents have 9 grandsons and are dying for a girl, etc.
- If you are having fertility issues, don't bother trying this. Have intercourse at your peak fertility. Let mother nature decide.
- If you have thick mucus during ovulation, sperm can't get through, douche first. Mucus should then be thin, not thick like phlem.
