For many centuries, many happy couples have been preoccupied with the question of how to plan the birth of a boy or girl, that is, a child of a particular gender. Alas, it is impossible to completely deceive nature. But it turns out that it is possible to increase the chances of the birth of a future protector or a beautiful princess.
Baby gender planning
In the traditions of many cultures, the birth of a boy is highly welcomed - a warrior, protector, heir to the clan. Especially when this is the first child in the family. There are times when a couple already has a girl, or even several girls, and parents dream of a son. There are some methods, both ancient, traditional, folk, and more modern, which make it possible to “order" a gender of a future baby to a large extent. Of course, this is possible only in case of planning in advance such an important event as the birth of a new man. Only then can all the necessary measures be taken. But in our time in civilized countries and in families where love and mutual understanding reign, a joint decision on how to plan the birth of a boy or girl is a common thing.
A bit of science
From the point of view of biological science, a woman is distinguished from a man by a certain chromosome set - XX or XY. In the egg, as in the sperm, there is only half of this set. Moreover, the determining (X or Y) is brought in by the sperm. Therefore, the conception of a child of a certain gender directly depends on the man and his condition. But, at the same time, the fertilization process takes place inside the female body, so its effect is also certain.
Dietary method
It is believed that for the conception of a boy , an excess of sodium and potassium must be present in the future mother’s diet, while there should be a lack of magnesium and calcium (these substances contribute to the conception of girls). Therefore, in order to increase the likelihood of having a boy, you must adhere to the following diet:
- From drinks choose tea, wine, coffee, beer, mineral water based on soda; all milk drinks and milk should be excluded, as well as mineral water enriched with calcium;
- eat any meat and fish;
- consume vegetables (soy, potatoes, legumes), mushrooms, pasta, cereals, flour;
- useful fruits, for example, bananas, apricots, dried fruits, as well as jam, jam, honey;
- seafood should be excluded from the diet.
By sperm activity
Another popular method for planning a boy’s birth is based on the fact of different activity of spermatozoa carrying female and male chromosomes. So, sperm containing a kit for conception of a boy are more active, but less tenacious. Therefore, if sexual intercourse took place directly during the period of ovulation, the birth of a male infant is more likely, and vice versa - if it took place 2-3 days before the appearance of the egg, there are more chances to wait for those that carry the female chromosome.
There are also special tables and arithmetic methods to determine the exact day on which the most likely conception of the baby of the expected sex. Any couple who have begun to wonder how to plan the birth of a boy should remember that this is an attempt to deceive nature. Therefore, not a single method or even their combination can guarantee an absolute result. And you need to be prepared for the fact that a girl will appear in the family, who will also need care and love. And if planning still yielded results, then until the moment you can choose a gift for the boy, you will only have to wait forty long weeks.
