REALLY Want a GIRL...

I recommend using the Shettles method as other moms have also said. Also, you may want to start charting your temperature and your cycle...you can go to fertilityfriend.com and register for a membership. This web site helps you determine when you approximately will ovulate. This in combination with the Shettles method should increase your chances...

But keep in mind (as I am sure you already do): the most important thing is that you stay healthy, relax and that you and your baby will have a healthy and relaxed pregnancy and that you and your baby are going to be healthy. Good luck!

Check out www.tcoyf.com it is a fertility website. They also have a book out with software. I used it to concieve #2 and timed it correctly for a girl. I took my basal temp every morning at the same time and charted my temps to know when I was ovulating and most fertile. It is amazing to learn about your body and to get it know it so well. I knew exactly when I concieved and I even knew that I was pregnant very early as well. Also I think there is a site called storks nest that has a bunch on there about how to concieve a certain sex. It's all in the timing!

HI A.!
Well, Jen (below) has the link for you!!

You can also do a search for Chinese Gender Predictor and get other charts.

I've used this and it's been correct every time! I tested the chart and plugged in Everyone in my extended Family, including my Grandmother!! And yes, it predicted the gender of all of our children correctly. Hmmmm. Conincidence? I don't think so. Try it with your sons and maybe you can chart for your Girl!
Good Luck!

Hi A..
Here is a web site that may help. I suggest checking out the whole site but here is an interesting page.

For more details on the Shettles Method there is the following book,

How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby: The Method Best Supported by Scientific Evidence
by Landrum B. Shettles, David M. Rorvik, David M. Rorvik

You also may benefit from getting a fertility lens.

The Lens can tell you when you are ovulating and it is great for any woman who wants to know when she is fertile so that she can conceive more easily. )or avoid concieving.

Im 25 and have 2 boys also ages 3 and 1,,,I just got pregnant (6weeks) and I am hoping for a girl as well!! Well, let me rephrase I am dying to have a girl. lol There is too much testosteron in this house. I have found that the chinese gender calendar is pretty accurate. So do a search on yahoo,,there are several to choose from, and what its asks is the age of mother during conception and the month of conception. unfortunately mine says Im having another boy :-( But as long as the baby is healthy I guess thats what really matters. We will just have to try again,,,and plan it next time. This one was an accident. Good luck!!!!!!! Let me know how it turns out.

I have two older brothers, and my mom was exactly like you~desperately wanted a girl. She got a book from the library about how to concieve the gender child you want. I can't remember the name of it~it's pretty old by now, but I'm sure there are a ton of books out there in your local public library on the topic. The one my mother used included things like position,temp., time of month, etc. It worked, here I am! I used ovulation tests to help me time the conception of my current pregnancy (#2)-you can get them anywhere, Walmart,HEB,Walgreens. Good luck!

I used to want a girl (had 2 boys), but then I had a miscarriage and realized that I just wanted another bay and did not care what we had. But I did read the book "How to choose the sex of your baby" by shettles. According to the method, we had sex at the appropriate times to have boys all three times (I got pg again and had another boy, for 3 boys total).

I don't think there is anything wrong with trying for a girl, just be prepared for a boy and try not to be disappointed. If you don't want a boy at all, don't try for more kids, imo.

Some people swear by the Shettles method to gender selection...
