aiming for a baby boy

first, i’m blogging about this so i would have an online reference.

second, i would be a hyprocrite if i’d say i don’t want another baby. i want another one. but not soon. next year would be better.

Note: I know very well that I’m not getting any younger. And it seems that my generation is having more difficulty getting pregnant than trying not to be.

but if i’ll get pregnant this year, i’d aim for a baby boy. so i googled, and these i found:

Preconception Gender Diet

The boy diet / girl diet theory holds that altering your body’s pH through diet may influence the polarity of the egg (if it has one), or make the vaginal environment more or less hospitable to sperm.

Diet high in potassium and sodium for a boy.
Diet high in calcium and magnesium for a girl.

I realized I should maintain this diet, just in case i get lucky this year.

Not only that. I found a chinese calendar for this. After some computation (yes, lunar months were a bit confusing) , hubby and I need to do some boxing in the arena on these dates:

from: jan 14, 2008 <—i only computed from today
to: feb 5, 2008

from: mar 7, 2008
to: jun 2, 2008

from: aug 30, 2008
to: sep 28, 2008

from: dec 27, 2008
to: dec 31, 2008 <—2009 chinese calendar is not yet available

whoa! lots of fireworks for us this year. 2008 is indeed a year to look forward to.

now, how not to get pregnant on the other dates…

hmmm, on second thought, more like, how to get pregnant again…tsk. tsk.
