My husband had a baby girl before we were married and now we are trying to conceive our own child. He and I really long for a baby boy-but the cost of PGD and IVF are so expensive! Do any of you have any reliable suggestions for trying to have a little guy? I have read about the Shettles method and other techniques-does anyone know if any of these actually work?
Hoping for blue...
Re: Longing for a baby boy...
I have only one thing to say.
FVCK YOU!!!!!
I'm not sure you'll find the answers you're looking for here, as many of the ladies on this board are experiencing a lot of trouble conceiving their first baby and would be thrilled to have either gender.
Maybe try throwing it out on the 1st tri board. Some of those women may have some advice for you.
Thanks cutebride! I was trying to be diplomatic...hehe:) I like your reply a lot better!
totally agree.
I hope you have a girl.
Love & luck to my 3TC girls. Congrats to Omega-The boys are here!
If there's one thing I've learned while waiting my turn,
it's that in each life some rain falls but you also get some sun.
After 2 years & 2 losses, our little man arrived 8-2011.
