Top 3 Ways To Conceive A Baby Girl (And Not A Single Doctor In Sight!)
In this day and age, some people still argue if it is at all possible to choose the gender of your baby.
Of course it is possible!
Science has found ways to virtually guarantee you the conception of baby of a preferred gender… if you’re willing to endure some very invasive medical procedures – and you’re able to pay – that is!
In this article, however, we’re going to talk about completely natural, safe and simple ways to conceive a baby girl!
Although there is a myriad of old wives’ stories and anecdotes about how to conceive a baby girl, these 3 ways are standing above the rest!
1. Know when is the right time to conceive a baby girl.
What: Chances of conceiving a baby girl greatly increase when conception happens 3 – 4 days before ovulation.
Why? Sperm carrying girl-producing chromosome live longer than the boy-producing sperm – thus they will outlive the latter when the time to fertilize the egg comes.
How to do it: In order to conceive a baby girl, have intercourse a few days prior to ovulation.
What will you need: A way to track when your ovulation is due. If you’re not comfortable with methods such as charting basal temperature and the like, ask for ovulation predictor kit in your pharmacy.
2. Know how to conceive a baby girl.
What: Yes, we’re talking about that three letter word;) So, which is the best position to conceive a baby girl? Any position that will result in depositing the sperm as far away from cervix is optimal.
Why? Remember when we said that girl-producing sperm live longer than boy-producing sperm? Since “girl sperm” are more like marathon runners, and “boy sperm” are more like sprinters, there’s a greater chance that “girl sperm” will survive that long and hard journey and eventually meet the egg.
How to do it: If you want to conceive a baby girl, make love in a missionary position, or any other position where penetration is shallow.
What will you need: … oh, but seriously;) Are additional explanations really needed? I think you can answer this by yourself;) Or, like Nike says: Just do it!;)
3. Diet to conceive a baby girl.
What: What you eat while trying for a girl can significantly upper your odds of conceiving your little baby girl!
Why? Eating foods high in magnesium is said to help you conceive a baby girl. While this sounds like an old wives’ tale, it doesn’t hurt to try, does it? Furthermore, some foods will make your reproductive tract more acidic, which in itself makes a friendlier environment for sperm carrying girl-producing chromosomes.
How to do it: If you’re trying for a girl, your daily diet should include lots of green vegetables – which are rich in magnesium. To make your vagina more acidic, increase your intake of acid producing foods, such as meats and sweets.
What will you need: To test your acidity, you can use vaginal testing strips, available in most health stores. And, when shopping for groceries, don’t forget some whole grains, corn, and – a chocolate;)

Finding Ease and Comfort With Baby Pouches
Have you heard of a baby pouch, but you’re not quite sure what it is? Just like ring slings, pouches allow you to “wear” your baby, and baby pouches are considered a sling. However, there are some important differences between a ring sling and a baby pouch.
A quick description of a baby pouch is a folded piece of fabric that is attached together at the ends. The fold of the fabric creates an envelope style pocket, and it’s into this pocket that the baby is placed. The baby pouch is very simple to use and wear, making it popular among first time parents and those new to “baby wearing” as a lifestyle. With a baby pouch, it is particularly important to get a good fit so the baby stays securely next to your body.
Baby pouches are extremely user-friendly. They are comfortable to wear, easy to put on, and easy to use. There are very few adjustments to make, so the learning curve is very short. Unlike other types of slings, a well-fit baby pouch holds the baby securely, and allows your child to move easily from a lying down to sitting up position, (called “popability” in babywearing circles) when he or she gets to the age where that is important. The wide band of fabric spreads out across the wearer’s back, distributing weight evenly and minimizing back pain.
A baby in a baby pouch carrier can be carried on the wearer’s front in either a lying down position or a sitting up position. You can also wear the baby on your hip or back using a baby pouch. The baby can be facing you or looking out, away from you.
Many parents prefer the sleek look of baby pouches to the slightly bulkier profile of a ring sling. Dads particularly like the look of feel of the baby pouch and are more likely to wear it than a sling.
There are adjustable baby pouches and non-adjustable baby pouches. The adjustable styles have snaps, zippers, or Velcro on one end, while non-adjustable baby pouches are sewn together at both ends. The adjustable pouches can be used by at least two people of different sizes, eliminating the need to purchase two pouches. Baby pouches adjust as your baby grows, making the baby pouch a good choice from newborn to toddler.
There are two general kinds of fabrics used for baby pouches. You’ll buy either stretch fabric or a non-stretchy cotton pouch. Many experienced baby pouch users express a preference for stretchy fabrics that give with the baby, provide better support, are more comfortable for the baby, and do not cause baby to get sore legs.
Baby Pouch Pros: Quick to learn, easy to use, sleek look, lightweight (can be folded easily into a diaper bag if not in use), dads like them better, fit preemies to preschool age, no rings, comfortable for back carry, even young babies can be carried on the back.
Baby Pouch Cons: Less adjustability, fewer possible positions, not as easy to breastfeed discreetly.
If you are looking for a wonderful way to bond with your baby, baby pouches are a great way to achieve the closeness you want and have the convenience you need for all your days.
