When attempting to select the gender of your child, many persons are not aware of minor factors that play an important role in determining whether they have a baby boy or a baby girl. One of these factors include the sexual practices that take place, sexual positions in particular. Prior to explain how sexual positions actually affect the gender of your child, one must know key factors about the nature of sperm. There are male sperm and female sperm which determine whether you have a baby boy or girl. Each of these type of sperm have one main strength as well as one main weakness. The strength of the male sperm is that they are faster swimmers than female sperm which results in them being able to reach the egg before the female sperm. However, male sperm tend to have a very short lifespan. Female sperm on the other hand are slower than male sperm but they are able to outlive male sperm.

This is important information for parents to know when attempting to choose the gender of their baby. If they desire to have a baby boy, they need to practice sexual intercourse using certain positions that place the sperm as close to the cervix as possible. This would ensure that the male sperm are able to fertilize the egg before the female sperm is able to. Male dominant positions such as rear entry positions would achieve this task successfully since these positions allow for maximum penetration to take place the sperm as near as possible to the cervix.
