If I Have Sex After Ovulation, Will I Definitely Have A Boy
?
I recently received correspondence from a woman who was trying to become pregnant with a boy baby. She had read that it's important to conceive on the day of ovulation. And someone had told her that if she were successful with this timing, the result would always be a son. She asked me, in part: "If you're able to conceive on the day of ovulation, does this always result in a boy baby?"
The answer to this question is no, not always. It can greatly improve the odds of your getting a son, but it' doesn't have a 100% success rate, as far as I know. The timing of your conception is one thing that can influence your baby's gender, but there are other variables. I will discuss this more in the following article.
Why You're Often Advised To Conceive On Your Ovulation Day When You Want A Boy Baby: The reason for this advice is that the boy producing sperm (which are known as the Y's) and the girl producing sperm (or the X's) behave in different ways. The Y's move more quickly and can cover more ground over a shorter period of time. But, the X's can live for a longer period of time and weaken and die off later. Because couples wanting a male baby are working with a shorter window of time and with weaker chromosomes, it's advisable to have intercourse as close as you can to the egg's release (which is the day of ovulation.)However, conceiving on your ovulation day does not ensure that none of the girl producing or X chromosomes will be present and fighting to get to the egg first. Some will be present and that's why it's often advisable to try to control other variables besides timing.Controlling PH And Using The Optimal Sexual Positions: If you are trying for a boy baby, your ultimate goal is to put the Y's in the optimal position to be successful and to make things difficult for the X's. We've already discussed how you can do this through your timing. (Incidentally, it's acceptable to have intercourse on the day following intercourse as well.)But, in addition to timing, it can help to consider how the trip to the egg plays out. Both chromosomes are racing to the egg at the same time. Only one is going to be successful. After they are released, these chromosomes will have to make their way through your reproductive tract where it is typically either alkaline or acidic. An acidic environment is detrimental to the boy producing sperm, so it is in your best interest to make sure that you are as alkaline as you can be.The first step in this is usually testing yourself to find out your PH. This is often done with small litmus papers that you can get at a health food store or online. You can then change your level (if you are not happy with it) by changing your diet and / or using different douches. Some women will find that their levels don't need much changing, but this isn't always the case.In addition to this, it also makes sense to use the optimal positions when you have intercourse. The reason for this is that you want to release the sperm as close to your cervix and reproductive tract as you can manage. This is why deeper penetration is preferable for couples wanting boy babies. And luckily, this is very easy for most couples to accomplish.The final advice that I would give is that it's vital to make sure that you have actually ovulated. I can't tell you how many women tell me things like: "People always ovulate 14 days after their menstrual cycle." This just is not the case for all women. And, ovulation times can vary from month to month. It can certainly make sense to use a good ovulation predictor to make sure your suspicions are correct, especially since timing is so very important.Admittedly, using all these methods together probably won't mean that you are 100% guaranteed to get a boy baby, but I believe that they do significantly increase your changes. And, I've read that these methods can raise your chances to a level over 90%. These are likely just estimates, of course. But I can tell you from my own experience that I've had success with these methods.I've put together a few websites that take a lot of the guess work out of choosing your baby's gender when getting pregnant. You'll find step by step instructions, resources for determining ovulation times, douche recipes and food PH lists, information on when to conceive, tips, support, and examples of ovulation predictors / PH testing strips.If you want a boy baby, check out http://conceive-a-boy-baby.com/.If you want a girl baby, check out http://conceive-a-girl-baby.com/. http://www.articlesbase.com/pregnancy-articles/if-i-have-sex-after-ovulation-will-i-definitely-have-a-boy-4295520.html
