The male sperm swim faster and reach the egg quicker. You need to give the female sperm a head start.

You see, it starts early in life. Girls need a head start to catch up with boys.

That’s because many people don’t follow all the instructions properly. You also need to use the right sexual position, along with many other steps for it to work.

Is there an expert who can walk couples through this?

For running, yeah. But girls are smarter and tend stay out of trouble.

That's so messed up. So f those other 10 embryos right?!

IVF for infertility is one thing, but this sh!t is what makes people raise their eyebrows.

Masturbation is mass murder!

DH bought a book called, "How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby." It had a bunch of hooey about timing and positions. We did not follow its instructions at all, except occasionally by accident. Our baby was the sex DH preferred, so now he insists the book works. I think he is kidding.

My daughter was from sex on the day of ovulation so there’s that.

This is so incredibly stupid.

I read something about artificial sweeteners changing your PH to be more acidic which helps in trying for a girl. I did it and we have a girl but who knows if it made a difference.

No, that’s false. Female sperm are thought to survive longer. I’ve never read about anything about speed of swimming.
