Techniques Explaining How To Select The Gender Of Your Baby -- Medical Proof Or Just A Con?

When I first created my internet site choose-sex-of-baby.com there were not many other sites devoted to information about how to choose the sex of baby. However, throughout the very recent past, internet sites and blogs promising help with selecting the sex of your baby have mushroomed all over cyberspace, with most of them selling kits and plans for gender selection.

Are baby gender selection a con? Is there any medical basis to them?

The only guaranteed way of baby gender selection available nowadays is based on pre-implantation diagnosis. Basically, sperm and eggs are fertilized in a lab dish, and a few days later, tiny bits from embryos are taken and examined to determine the sex of each. Next, an embryo with the gender you would like to have, is taken and put into the mother's womb to enable it to develop into a baby.

Another "medical" method though with no such guarantee that the first method gives, entails separating of the sperm that results in a male or a female child, and then utilizing these sperm to fertilise the egg. Two techniques are commonly used. In one method, male reproductive fluid in a container is made to spin at high speeds, which is thought to aggregate the "male" and "female" sperm separately because of their different sizes. With respect to the gender of the baby you choose, sperm from the top or bottom of the aggregate is used for fertilization. The second method tries to recognize "male" and "female" sperm depending on their sizes, by using a dye that sticks to the sperm.

In both these cases you cannot conceive by natural means through sex. Maybe you have to try more than once for a successful pregnancy. And of course, these treatments are quite expensive.

Procedures based on timing of conception. The most popular of these are based on the Shettles' approach. If we consider the postings on forums, we find that number of couples have utilized this method successfully, while a few have not.

There are sites which sell techniques to choose the sex of your baby based almost exclusively on the idea of changing the Ph of your reproductive system. The idea is that the acidic-alkaline environment in the woman's vagina might help or slow down the chances of conceiving a baby boy or a baby girl by making it easier or difficult for male or female sperm to survive and fertilise the egg.

Gender Selection Software. We now have internet sites (as well as mine) offering to give you a prediction of the probability of your conceiving a male child or a female child, for each day of any year.

When the dates of birth of the father and the mother are entered into the software program, it gives the probability of conceiving a boy or a girl for any given time period. The advantage claimed for implementing software-generated dates is that you can avoid the trouble of monitoring your body temperature or secretions for one to three months.

The other advantage is that the software provides for us durations of two weeks to two months during which we can conceive to have the baby of our preference, unlike other gender selection strategies which give you a couple of dates within which you have to conceive, or you've missed it.

To conclude, I would state this: if you are very serious about choosing the sex of your baby, have enough cash (approximately 50,000 dollars) to burn, and are also willing to put up with the trouble and the risk of failing a few times, you can go for the newest medical treatment.
