Trying to concieve a boy :)

[morris0626]

Hi there!

I have been blessed with two beautiful daughters and now the hubby and I are on a quest for a boy

I have ready about eating tons of salt and bananas but am curious if you ladies have heard of any other things that help with conceiving a boy. I know, I know....its a 50/50 chance, but it couldn't hurt right?

Avoid acidic foods! Old wives tale. "Eat specific foods to raise the odds of having a boy. For a few weeks before conception, eat red meat, eggs, fish, beans, peas, mushroom, zucchini, sweet corn, raisins, bread and salty foods. These foods may create a more alkaline pH level in the vagina."

Encourage your partner to consume a caffeinated beverage before sex. The caffeine may make the Y sperm more active.

Consume cough syrup a few hours before intercourse. Some gender selection theorists believe that cough medicine containing guaifenesin thins the cervical mucus, making conditions favorable for Y sperm. Check the ingredients to be sure the cough syrup contains guaifenesin before taking it.

And.... Follow the Chinese Lunar Birth Calendar

Best of luck!
