My husband and I have two beautiful girls, ages 2 and 3. We are soon going to try for a third child and want to have a boy. Do you know of any tips on how to conceive a boy?:)

Just wish and hope. There is nothing medically that you can do to conceive either sex. You will hear different things, but these are just theories and are not proven.

I know that you will love your baby whether it is a boy or a girl.

Unless you are on negotiating terms with mother nature, I'm afraid there isn't any way to really chose. There are all sorts of things out there that say you can predict, or help you be more likely to have one or another by you take supplements etc. but scientifically, the guys sperm are the ones who have all the control of what sex the baby turns out to be, and its all just a matter of chance/luck.

A lot of old wives tales,

Shoes under the right side of the bed was one,

Well your husband control whether it will be a boy or a girl well actually his sperm does... so coach him into giving you a boy and not a girl lol its impossible! Hope and wish and perhaps pray and ask for a boy! Good Luck!

You there are only theories which are not proven. But there are also some proven methods like IVF. There is 100% surety in IVF but it is very expensive. Other ways are just speculations. You can also try herbal medicine to conceive a boy (http://www.boybirth.com). It worked for my friend. But Ericson and IVF are sure and expensive.
