Family / How To Concieve A Male Child by AskDrKendra(f): 8:15pm On Mar 22, 2018 |
Yes I know, every child is a gift,however in our society, boys are valued more than the female species which brings me to this topic..... How to Concieve a Male Child. I sought to have a male child, did my little research online and came up with these basic facts which worked cos now I have a male child 1. Eat lots of bananas and red meat cos the male spermatozoa loves potassium... This makes zero sense since no research has backed it up yet but hey, it was kinda the simplest thing to do so I ate those bananas and chowed lots of Suya. 2. KNOW WHEN YOU Ovulate! I can't stress this enough. Tried at first to use the ovulation kit and abandoned it pretty quickly cos it doesn't tell you exactly when you ovulate but predicts when you are about to ovulate in the next 24 to 48hrs which to me wasn't good enough. To know exactly when you ovulate, look for a competent radiologist to use an ultrasound to track your eggs. 3. In addition to using the ultrasound, check for physical signs like stringy vaginal secretions, mid cycle pain, pimples/oily face etc. You should know how your body changes during ovulation. 4. When you are absolutely sure of when you ovulate in your cycle, look for these 2 calenders: Chinese Calender and Mayan calendar. There are lots of calenders out there but go to baby center.com for the two. They will essentially tell you the months to have sex with your hubby if you want a male child. 5. After ovulation, and please note the word after, sleep with your hubby preferably the doggy style or missionary preferably 6 hours later ( you want the egg to be waiting comfortably in the fallopian tube ready to receive the male spermatozoa which is faster than the female spermatozoa) This is not the time for weird sexual positions. After sex, raise your hips up by putting a pillow behind your lower back and wait for a few minutes. 5. Hope for the best. What you must never do 1. Never sleep with your hubby 3 days before ovulation. If I were you, I will make that a week. 2. Never believe the myth that every woman ovulates on the 14th day of her cycle.... You will be amazed. 3. Yes, lots of factors can affect your ovulation, so try not to overdo it. Be the normal you as much as you can. 4. The process of ovulation releases pheromones which makes your man to literally hunt you down for sex.... Resist this temptation until your ovulation day. Best of luck |

lamdec: if tribotan is not working. It is unlikely to be fungal. Looks like seborrheic dermatitis or atopic dermatitis. Essentially it is a skin disease with triggers and can mimic a fungal infection. It can also be chronic. Try topical hydrocortisone and apply on affected area twice a day. You can get that at any pharmacy shop. Please, avoid funbact A esp in children. It has a steriod component that is way too high for children. 1 Like |

blueblood1: Sounds like something is still.ongoing there and my best bet is a fracture. I will like to know this, did an orthopedic surgeon see the x ray? or better still, a specialist in radiology. My dear, there are so many types of fractures and in kids, a lot more. And most of them requires a trained eye for detection on an x ray. Some breaks are so thin that it can be missed by the best of us. Please see an orthopedic surgeon and soon enough. |

nubiadoll: Sounds more like an allergy to me. Asides from actively preventing him from cold with sweaters, blankets, etc, i will advice you to see any paediatrician within your vicinity to listen to his chest and for further review and management. Now coming to the management you have been giving so far, it is unsafe to give cough syrup to children less than 4 years. Its efficacy and side effects in children that young are yet to be studied and alongside with other reasons is generally considered unsafe and even dangerous for kids that young. Currently, there is an outcry on the increase of "super-bugs"eg bacteria, viruses etc due to indiscriminate use of antibiotics. These bugs are resistant to antibiotics at our disposal today having learnt from constant exposure to antibiotics to sheath their swords. At the end of the day, children will be the worst hit. So, dear, antibiotics and cough syrup seem to play no role in your child's plight. Please see a doctor as i cant precribe the drugs needed online here. It will be unethical. |

Coldfeet: My dear, can i just say that this is quite peculiar with that age group. I have a 2 year old too and i am going through same now. I need you to be patient with him. He will eventually learn to eat like us "humans". I am glad you mentioned that he is a healthy bubbly boy....he must be eating right to be that way. As long as he is getting his major and minor nutrients from his mashed meals, there is really nothing to worry about. Again, there are no long term effects to worry about like i explained earlier. If you must do anything asides what you are doing now, try cutting up his solids eg yam into little cubes on weekends ie when he will not go to school to allow for that extra time it will take to finish his meal. You can also use that opportunity to introduce new meals. As long as you are both relaxed, and meal times are kept happy and fun, i am sure he will pick up. |

nubiadoll: I am sorry to hear this. I can understand how distressing it must be. Now, lets talk about the cough. Cough is our body's own defensive mechanism to clear dirt or any foreign particle from our airways. In a way, it is a good thing. It also informs us when there is an infection or an allergy. In children, there is increased tendency to cough because of their narrow airways, so any insult further narrows this airway and sends a signal to the brain, hence the cough. In medicine, any cough lasting about a month or more is called chronic cough. And though there are many causes of this, the most common in children is allergy? So, is your baby's cough worse at night or early morning? Does it seem to come when the weather is cold? When she breaths, is there any sound? Finally does she snore at night? Might i also add, that it is quite dangerous giving your child different antibiotics and cough syrup at just age 3. Will explain further when you have answered my questions above. |
