For parents, child is a gift whatever the gender. But the culture, environment, life experience sometimes makes parent there who want to have a specific gender for their children. For reasons of taste or just to simply ‘variation’ in the sense that it may be the first child is male then female wanted the next child and so on.
Some experts have done research and found a method to get the child to a particular gender. Although there are many factors that determine the success of these methods, there is nothing wrong if we peeled it. Who knows will be useful for you.
The method that will we learn is the method of Dr. Shettle, methods of cervical mucous and basal body temperature method.
DR. SHETTLE METHOD.
In this method the assumptions used to chromosome Y carrier spermatozoa will survive longer if they are at the time the couple was at the time of ovulation. That is when the egg cell (ovum) which has matured from the women apart from the ovary (ovarian). It is expected that the spermatozoa cells (Y chromosome carriers) will be more active than the sperm cell genotype X chromosome carrier. Reach the egg first, and fertilize the egg cell. Results are expected fertilization is likely to be a boy baby (chromosome XY)
However, if intercourse is two days before ovulation, the spermatozoa carrying the Y chromosome will die. Only the spermatozoa carrying the X chromosome will survive and fertilize an ovum cell, then the baby will be female (chromosome XX)
The success of this method is not only influenced by the ‘time’ but also the acidity of the vagina. At the time of the alkaline vagina during intercourse, the sperm with the Y genotypes that will last a long time, then it is likely to get a baby boy bigger, but if the vagina in acidic conditions, then the Y sperm will die genotype, then the most likely is a female baby.
Based on this method some doctors seem to be ‘manipulating’ the acidity of the vagina for a child with to get a certain gender.
CERVICAL MUCUS METHOD
In the uteri of women have cervic mucus (mucous) that the consistency can be estimated when ovulation occurs. From these estimates, the husband and wife can predict when the appropriate time to perform intercourse, according to the sex of the baby will want to get. This method has the same rationale to the method of DR, Shettle.
Conditions of cervic uteri mucus were as follows: At the beginning of menstruation, cervical mucus is usually thick, thick and cloudy. However, when the nearer ovulation, the mucus viscosity and decreased cloudly so more fluid and clear. While at the peak of ovulation, the mucus comes out will seems like raw chicken egg white, thick, gelatinous and slippery. To be able to determine when the exact time of ovulation, it is necessary to exercise continuously for at least three months. Wait until you have enough ‘good’ before doing this method.
If want to get the accuracy in determining the state of cervical mucus, may be assisted by using basal body temperature method.
BASAL BODY TEMPERATURE METHOD
This method is a support or help for the lat two methods mentioned earlier. This method is done by measuring the mother’s body temperature, can be done as soon as you wake up, before getting out of bed. This is because any activities conducted the mother would raise her body temperature. Because of that, resist the desire to implement so you wake up, even just taking a drink of water. This was done in order to obtain accurate data.
Measure temperature every day. Record regularly, every morning in the whole month. From the data obtained will be known when the time of ovulation and how the body temperature an average time of ovulation.
At the time of ovulation, the body temperature will fall until it reaches the lowest point the body temperature in a month. Two days later will rise again, and be in the range 36,8-37,5 degrees Celsius.
That is the method that you can apply with a partner. But keep in mind that there is the possibility remains perhaps it can be fail. As the saying goes “human effort, God determine”. Yet it never hurts to try, right?
