Ok...I've heard (and seen) this mentioned a few times in regards to ttc. What the hell is it? Can you buy it at wal-mart or somewhere? Who has all used this and been successful?

Be cautious with vinegar... It is highly acidic, and has the potential to severly "throw the wack out" of your delicate chemical balance inside your vagina...

It feels good for a day, but it's SOOOO NOT WORTH A YEAST INFECTION!!!!! :freakout :freakout


I said "vagina".....:teehee

baking soda is supposed to produce a boy. just douche a couple days before ovulation.


They change the ph of your vagina. Female sperm die in a basic solution and male sperm die in an acid solution. :dunno

:lol I'll let you know if it worked in a few weeks :giggle They are working on a study on it but as of right now its a wives tale just like eating red meat means a boy and eating fish means a girl. My mom is an OB nurse and gets a lot of this. Someone she worked with had 2 boys and wanted 2 girls. She did this and got them so heck, why not give it a try :teehee

According to this sex selection theory, if you want a baby girl: Shallow penetration in the missionary position (man on top) will allow your partner to deposit sperm at the mouth of the cervix, which is said to favor the slow-moving sperm. Avoid orgasm. This will help keep your vaginal environment highly acidic. To increase acidity even more, use a vinegar and water douche preceeding intercourse. Abstain from sex on the 3rd and 4th day prior to ovulation and begine making love 2 days prior to ovulation. If you are using an ovulation predictor kit, make love when the solution is darkest. If you want a baby boy: Use deep penetration, and the rear-entry position, which will allow your partner to deposit sperm above the neck of the cervix, for fast entry into the uterus. The environment there is more alkaline, making easier for male sperm to survive. Douche with 2 Tb of baking soda in 1 quart of water just prior to intercourse to encourage an alkaline vaginal environment. Try to acheive orgasm at the same time your husband is ejaculating to lend in a more alkaline environment. Your partner should avoid masturbation for 4-5 days, and you should both avoind intercourse until your day of ovulation. This will help ensure the highest sperm count and give the advantage to the fast-moving male sperm. If you are using an ovulation predictor kit, make love 24 hours after the solution is its darkest.
