ultrasound and amnio are the only way to determin the sex of your child. all other methods are nothing more then old wives tales.

You CANNOT "determine" the sex of a child - either by ultrasound, amniocentesis, gender selection or in vitro fertilization.

Ultrasound and Amniocentesis simply let you know what sex the child is; it is already "determined". Gender selection and In Vitro fertilization simply allow you to "choose" the embryo with the gender you prefer, and discard the embryos withthe gender you don't want.
Put simply, a child's sex is determined at the point of fertilisation. You can only increase the odds of the specific gender you want. Here's how.

A man produces sperm that either carry a Y Chromosome(boy), or X Chromosome(girl). Whichever sperm cell fertilizes the egg determines whether its a girl or a boy. Y Chromosome sperm cells swim quicker than X-chromosome sperm cells, but die off faster. X Chromosome sperm cell swim slower, but live for longer inside the woman.
If you want a boy, have sex on your ovulation date exactly, as the egg released is only viable for about 24hrs. The chances are the Y Chromosome sperm will get to the egg faster, and fertilize it.
If you want a girl, it's best to make love at least two days before you ovulate, as this will allow the faster swimming Y Chromosome sperms to swim off, use up their energy and die, leaving the slower swimming ''female' sperm to arrive and fertilize the egg.

This is by no means guaranteed, but its been scientifically proven to improve the odds.

^^^^ while your suggestions icreases the odds of one particular gender not really that significantly if you read the studies you refer to it states that using such method changes the PROBABILITY of one gender to the other from 50/50 to around 60/40  your also forgeting there are genetic disorders which can cause XXY children of either gender (this is how opposite gender identical twins come about if such egg splits) and "off gender" children where XX is male and XY is female (extremly rare).  this method also requires women know the exact date of ovulation. though most do ovulate around the middle (12-16 day) of thier cycle, many woman ovulate in the 2nd day or the 23 dayor the 8th day and so on. you can become pregnant from intercourse durring your period. nearly 10% of woman ovulate 2 durring thier cycle and there have been numerous studies which show some woman ovulate up to 5 times durring a cycle as well as stress and imune health effects when a woman ovulates.

the only proven ways to "detect" (you approve of that word?) the childs gender is after fertilization

yes i forgot this one - detects hormones and is 99% about the same as amnio
Re: Do U Know U Can Determine Whelther To Have A Female Or Male Child by Romeo4real(m): 4:53pm On Jan 28, 2010
ultrasound and amnio are the only way to determine the intimacy of your child.
This is what u initially said. It is not correct.


the only proven ways to "detect" (you approve of that word?) the childs gender is after fertilization
This is what u finally said. Not a clear statement at all, but i understand what ur trying to say here.

While your suggestions icreases the odds of one particular gender not really that significantly if you read the studies you refer to it states that using such method changes the PROBABILITY of one gender to the other from 50/50 to around 60/40
I never suggested that it improved the odds significantly. Do read my post again.

your also forgeting there are genetic disorders which can cause XXY children of either gender (this is how opposite gender identical twins come about if such egg splits) and "off gender" children where XX is male and XY is female (extremly rare). this method also requires women know the exact date of ovulation. though most do ovulate around the middle (12-16 day) of thier cycle, many woman ovulate in the 2nd day or the 23 dayor the 8th day and so on.
I am not forgetting anything. The discussion was not about genetic disorders, or gender identical twins. Neither was it about the testing the efficacy of using the ovulation Cycle as an aid to conception.

you can become pregnant from intercourse durring your period. nearly 10% of woman ovulate 2 durring thier cycle and there have been numerous studies which show some woman ovulate up to 5 times durring a cycle as well as stress and imune health effects when a woman ovulates.
No one is disputing this.

This censorship thing is becoming too immature. It has made the topic of this thread meaningless. Why should the 'intimacy 'of your child read the 'intimacy' of your child ?

Moderators please correct this, this forum should be for mature adults, censorship is turning the forum into a mockery.

I already made a complaint to Dominique regarding this. It is making the posts incomprehensible and imposible to read and follow.

This discussion seems interesting. How can you determine your wife's ovulation period?How long does it last and when can you have intimacy with her without contraceptives and avoid pregnancy resulting in what I call child spacing.

cervical mucus levels, body temperature spikes, hormone levels. 

basil thermometors and home ovulation kits are available over the counter in many countries. 

this is not an effective method of birth control.  copper iud's are you best option of birth control if you dont want to use condoms/diaphrams or chemical/hormonal methods.  no waiting period for it to take effect or wear off when inserted by a ob-gyn or removed.
