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.
If somebody told you that the process of gender selection was easy, what would you say?
Do you want to conceive a boy, or do you want to conceive a girl?
OK enough questions! If you are reading this article then it’s more than likely because the topic of gender selection has cropped up in your day to day life. I know plenty of people with all boys, or all girls. And I also know a good half of them would have more children if only they be guaranteed the sex of their choice.
There is of course medical ways of baby sex selection. Microsort is the most common method, similar to IVF only the sperm gets sorted first. Now wouldn’t you think that with all of the technical equipment that our consultants and medical staff have now days, that if you paid your money – You would get what you paid for?… Not necessarily!
It can’t be guaranteed, and that’s if you get pregnant at all. Everyone thinks of IVF and assumes that there will be a baby at the end. Not always true, The pregnancy rate for IVF is only around 35%! Now if you are one of those lucky 35 out of 100 women, the chances of you having the gender of your choice are along these lines – To conceive a girl, 90%. To conceive a boy, 80%.
So on the whole process we’re not really talking good odds.
To be fair there is a process out there, that still uses IVF, but very nearly 100% guarantees you the child of your choice. You will pay through your high teeth for this method. PGD (Pre implantation Genetic Diagnosis) determines the gender of the embryo before it is placed into your uterus. Onto The Easy Bit
One more question – What if you were to find out, that there is a way to get pregnant with a child of the gender of your choice. Not only does this method give you a child of your dreams, it will prepare your body for pregnancy. How?…
