Conceiving a girlIn our final instalment of our series on natural methods to help choose the gender of your baby, we take a brief look at how the timing of intercourse can affect the gender of your child.

Alicia Pennington, former midwife and gender planning guru, has written the ultimate guide to employing natural methods to choose the gender of your baby. In Prince or Princess? Choosing your baby’s gender before conception, Pennington reveals that there is a lot to be learnt about how your ovulation cycle can impact your baby’s gender:

“Each month, there is a window of fertility that is around five days long. Three days prior to ovulation to one day following ovulation are the ideal times to conceive. Bear in mind, the egg only has 24 hours of viability, and that sperm can live for up to five days in the reproductive tract. Each woman is different however, but this is the widely accepted “window of fertility” that occurs every month.”

So because of the differences between the X and Y sperm as outlined on our previous post Conceiving a Girl By Sexual Position, timing intercourse is absolutely vital.

“ For those seeking to have a little boy, you need to time intercourse on the day that you ovulate. The Y sperm won’t live much longer than that 24 hour period that the egg is viable and you need to give them that chance to meet the egg before they expire.”

“To conceive a girl, intercourse should be timed to two to three days prior to ovulation. During this time, the Y sperm will have died out, leaving the slower but longer lasting X sperm behind. This really heightens the chances that you’ll have a girl.”

Over at her website planmybaby.com, Alicia Pennington has built a huge portfolio of hundreds of happy couples who have successfully used her methods to achieve the results they want. Now the manual of choice for gynaecologists and family planning clinics the world over, Prince or Princess? has quickly risen to the top of the gender planning field and it’s popularity looks set to continue.

Now a full-time gender selection consultant, the ever-modest Alicia  is quick to point out whilst her methods cannot always be 100% effective, she is proud of the fact that in the last year 112 of her patients conceived the baby gender of their choice.

“My career as a midwife was fulfilling as I was able to lend support and share the joy of each couple after the birth of their baby. And now I feel delighted, knowing that I am making a difference in the lives of mothers and families, but helping them choose the gender of their babies.”
