Shettles Method Revealed: Have you been wondering if it’s possible to influence the sex of your baby at the time of conception? This is something that couples around the world have wondered about for a very long time. There are a lot of different theories and methodologies that claim to be effective at helping couples select the sex of their child. One methodology that stands out and that has generated a great deal of interest over the years is the so-called Shettles Method.

Developed in the 1960′s by a man named Landrum Shettles, the self-named methodology was popularized in a book Shettles co-authored called “How to Choose The Sex Of Your Baby.”

The basic premise behind the Shettles Method is that a couple can influence the gender of their child during conception by focusing on three basic factors:

1) The Timing of Intercourse

To encourage the conception of a boy, the Shettles Method recommends that insemination occur when female ovulation occurs. This provides an environment that allows male sperm to potentially reach the egg first and achieve conception. Those who want a girl are advised to have sexual intercourse approximately 2 to 3 days before ovulation takes place.

2) Sexual Positions

Generally speaking, deep vaginal penetration is recommended if you want a boy because the male sperm will be deposited closer to the cervix — thereby avoiding the harshly acidic environment within the vagina. Conversely, shallow penetration and ejaculation creates an environment that’s more favorable to conceiving a girl.

3) Female Orgasms

An alkaline environment within the vagina is encouraged whenever a woman has an orgasm. Therefore, according to the Shettles Method, female orgasms create an environment that is more conducive to conceiving a boy because there is less vaginal acidity.

The Shettles Method however, has seen to have competitor which boasts a higher success rate. Ashley Spencer’s book has made its way into many doctors’ favorite, and it is better than Shettles Method.

So we got to work doing as much research as we could about natural ways to conceive a baby boy. What we discovered really amazed us. For example, did you know that the timing of sexual intercourse as well as the sexual position you choose can have an impact on the likelihood of conceiving a boy? It can! So can the diet you choose around the time of conception.

In a nutshell, you’re going to want to have sexual intercourse when female ovulation occurs. You’re also going to want to try to achieve deep penetration and ejaculation. This helps the male sperm reach the egg faster without being subjected to as much of the harsh acidic environment that exists within the vagina.

My friends and I are all looking forward to trying these natural ways to help us conceive a baby boy. You should try them too if you’re interested in having a son.
