A question of (the baby's) sex Part 2 (Teacher: Michael)
If you want
Select
the
a
boy, then you should abstain from intercourse until
Select
the
a
day of ovulation. If you want
Select
the
a
girl, then you should have sex from
Select
the
a
beginning of
Select
the
a
cycle until three days before ovulation when you should avoid intercourse.
Neither Hazel Phillips nor I guarantee that this method will work. But it will at least be fun trying! All this interest in choosing
Select
the
a
sex of
Select
the
a
baby has reminded me of
Select
the
a
doctor I used to know years ago. He had
Select
the
a
foolproof way of predicting
Select
the
a
sex of
Select
the
a
baby.
When
Select
the
a
pregnant woman went to see him and wanted to know what sex her baby was going to be, he would tell her that she was going to have
Select
the
a
girl; and he would write
Select
the
a
note in
Select
the
a
back of his diary. Just so that there wouldn't be any argument about it afterwards. But being
Select
the
a
crafty old doctor he would write 'boy' in
Select
the
a
back of his diary.
When
Select
the
a
patient came to see him after
Select
the
a
birth, he would be able to claim
Select
the
a
100 per cent success rate. If she had
Select
the
a
girl, then she'd probably remember what he'd told her. And he wouldn't need
Select
the
a
diary. If she had
Select
the
a
boy, then he'd take out his diary, show her
Select
the
a
entry, and explain that she must have misheard him!
