How to Select the Gender of a Child Naturally

The majority of parents hope for a healthy baby above all. You can still want this and hope for a specific gender as well. There are things you can do that some believe will help you select the gender of a child naturally. A lot of them are old wives' tales and myths, but the idea is fun.

Difficulty: Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Eat lots of meat and salty food if you're a woman and want your baby to be a boy. The dad should drink lots of soda, specifically cola drinks. To select the gender to be a girl, both partners should include lots of fish and vegetables in their diets and the woman should enjoy plenty of treats.

  2. Step 2

    Make love standing up or in the rear entry position to conceive a boy naturally. Lie down after sex for awhile. For a girl, use the missionary position or with the woman on top.

  3. Step 3

    Make love during a quarter moon at night if you'd like the gender of your child to be a boy. If you want to select a girl naturally, try to conceive during a full moon in the afternoon.

  4. Step 4

    Have sex on odd days to select a boy. Even days are favorable for girls to be conceived naturally.

  5. Step 5

    Have sex as close to ovulation as possible for your child's gender to be a boy. Stop having sex at least two days before ovulation if you want a girl. This is a scientific method based on the acidic levels of vaginal and cervical fluids.

  6. Step 6

    Use the Ancient Chinese Birth Chart if you're a woman. This will show you which gender you should expect for your age and the month of conception. It also shows how likely you are to have a boy or girl depending on your age.

Tips & Warnings
  • Keep in mind that none of the old wives' tales have been scientifically proven.
