A question of (the baby's) sex Part 1 (Teacher: Michael)
In
Select
an
a
this
the
that
past few years I've seen
Select
an
a
this
the
that
number of patients wanting to know how they can choose
Select
an
a
this
the
that
sex of their baby. Reports from different experts around
Select
an
a
this
the
that
world have aroused hopes and expectations - and many parents-to-be have come into
Select
an
a
this
the
that
surgery convinced
Select
an
a
this
the
that
they'll be able to have
Select
an
a
this
the
that
boy or
Select
an
a
this
the
that
girl with hardly any chance of
Select
an
a
this
the
that
error.
The truth is, of course, it isn't possible to provide
Select
an
a
this
the
that
100 per cent sure way of ensuring
Select
an
a
this
the
that
Select
an
a
this
the
that
couple get
Select
an
a
this
the
that
baby they want. But there are lots of people who claim to know of methods which improve
Select
an
a
this
the
that
odds
Select
an
a
this
the
that
little from
Select
an
a
this
the
that
normal 50 per cent chance. Hazel Phillips, for example, worked out
Select
an
a
this
the
that
formula
Select
an
a
this
the
that
. she claimed has
Select
an
a
this
the
that
success rate of over 80 per cent. She described her method in
Select
an
a
this
the
that
book called Girl or Boy?
Select
an
a
this
the
that
she wrote
Select
an
a
this
the
that
few years ago with Tessa Hilton.
According to Hazel,
Select
an
a
this
the
that
first thing you have to do is work out when ovulation takes place. There are various ways of doing
Select
an
a
this
the
that
, but
Select
an
a
this
the
that
simplest is probably to remember
Select
an
a
this
the
that
ovulation normally takes place 14, days before
Select
an
a
this
the
that
next period starts. It is possible to get
Select
an
a
this
the
that
more accurate idea of when ovulation takes place by plotting daily temperatures - but
Select
an
a
this
the
that
can be rather tedious and time-consuming.
