It is all a matter of genetics actually. There are no exercises or foods, etc that will increase your chances for conceiving a boy or girl.

It is all up to Mother nature.

Basically, men produce two types of sperms, the X (female) and Y (male). According to studies the y-sperms are smaller, weaker, but faster than x-sperms, which are bigger, stronger, but slower.
Based on this fact, there are several things you can do to "favor" the conception of boys or girls:
The most important aspect of all is timing of intercourse during the monthly cycle. The closer to ovulation you have sex, the better the chances to have a boy, because the y-sperms are faster and tend to get to the egg first. If you have sex 3 days or more before ovulation, the better your chances to conceive a girl, because the weaker y-sperms tend to die sooner and the x-sperms will be available in greater quantity whenever the egg is released.
The pH of the women's tract is also very important. A more acidic environment favors girls, since it will kill the weaker y-sperms first, leaving a greater quantity of x-sperms available to fertilize the egg.
Position of intercourse and depth of penetration are important, partly because of pH. The closer to the entrance to the vagina, the more acidic the women's tract is. Also, deep penetration places the sperm closer to the egg, and gives those aggressive boy sperms a head start :-). So, a shallow penetration will favor girls and a deeper will favor boys.
Women's orgasms can also be important. It also has to do with pH. When a woman has an orgasm, the body releases some kind of substance that makes the environment more alkaline, favoring boys.

Good luck!

I was talking to my friend earlier about this same thing , that's funny, but she told me there is a time right after or on the last day of your period that you can conceive a girl. I have no idea if this is true or not but she got her info from a mid wife show or video called house of babies or something like that.

It's not possible to conceive at all then unless you double ovulate.
