Gender Selection – Frogs & Snails or Sugar & Spice?

Will gender selection be the new isle in the supermarket, geared towards people who need to have a baby of certain sex?

In today’s society, where we have a choice in everything major in our lives, from where we are going to give birth to our babies, to pre planning our own funeral. Is it right that we can determine the sex of a baby before it’s even conceived?

Apparently so… Gone are the days when a fourth little girl would cause disappointment to the father. Gone are the days of fingers crossed and hope for a boy.

It’s all out there for us if we care to look. Gender selection products and methods are easily available, so we can have a baby to fit into our preplanned lifestyles.

Baby sex selection methods can range from the ‘very expensive’ to ‘the very cheap’. Microsort & PGD weigh in at the top end of the scale, and have approximately 80% chance of giving you what you want. But could you imagine paying thousands of pounds for a bouncing baby boy, and being in the 20% that end up with a little girl.

That’s right, around twenty percent of people will spend lots of their hard earned money, and still not get what they wanted!

So onto those cheaper gender selection methods, and even a couple of free tips!

Whether you are purely desperate enough to try anything, or just trying it for the fun of the whole experience – with a little bit of “how great would it be if it really worked!” Here a few theories (based on the Shettles method) to think about.
