We are going to start trying for our 2nd baby in a few months. We both would like to have a boy (but of course would be happy with a healthy baby no matter the sex). Are there any truths to timing sex with ovulation, etc. in connection with having either a boy or girl? Has anything worked for any of you? Just curious more than anything.

What can I do next?

To the best of my knowledge - there is no truth to the myths about being able to get a certain sex with different positions....

Above all else - don't "TRY" - it will stress your body out - just have FUN!! If you stress about "TRYING" you will drive yourself insane and your body WILL stop you from getting pregnant - the flight or fight response - so instead of charting, etc. - just DO IT FOR FUN!!!

There is no way you can get the gender of your choice by swaying. If there was, we would all know about it, all have the gender we want, and there would not be rampant gendercide around the world.

I had two boys, swayed my butt off for #3, boy again, #4, my only girl, was more of an oops and looking back to timing, it 'should have been a boy'.

You get what you get and if people tell you 'it worked for them', it could of worked anyway. You do have a 50/50 chance at a boy. My advice, have fun making the baby instead of trying to sway for a boy, which takes all the fun out of it ;)

Personally, I don't think there are any truths to this. My hubby and I tried for our second and I looked up some things that could help having a boy(since we have our perfect daughter). I just found our 4 days ago that we are having another little girl. And that chinese gender chart isn't right all the time either! But, we are greatful to be having another healthy little girl!

Good luck!
