Your food selection affects the baby’s gender - Myth

God has given us such a beautiful power to give birth and bring up a baby, what I don’t understand is why we are out to make everything around it so mysterious and more than anything funny.

There are so many theories and old wives tale surrounding pregnancy that it is nothing short of being hilarious. From when you conceive to in what position of sex did you conceive to who initiated the love making to what time of the day you conceived and top of the line what kind of foods you have eaten or will eat to determine the sex of your baby.

What is a fact is eating good nutritional food and living a healthy lifestyle that will generate a healthy baby and that is all that’s true in the food theory.Getting pregnant and then delivering a bundle of complete joy is the true magic and nothing else there are no magic foods portions or positions that will give you a boy or a girl. You get what is destined to be in your life and what ever be it, remember it’s a gods blessing and will only bring you loads and loads of happiness.

The only thing that determines the gender is the X and Y chromosome that is given to the mother’s egg by the father’s sperm.

Let me give you some of the vaguest and the weirdest of theories I have come across that determine the baby’s gender and please let me tell you it is all a MYTH not a single word is true or has any scientific proof to it.

Some vague theories to have a son-

If you want a boy have more sex before your ovulation date and if you get knocked up on your ovulation date or later then you have conceived a boy.

Having sex in doggie style position and in the night ensures a boy.

If the love making was initiated by the father then you have conceived a son.

 If you have eaten or if you are eating foods that are high in sodium and high in proteins like meats fish and if in carbohydrates you have eaten more of white flour and have eaten potassium rich foods like bananas and fruits based morning breakfast cereals then you are going to have a baby boy.

Vague theories to conceive a daughter

If you have conceived before your ovulation date then for sure it’s a girl as according to some X chromosomes are lighters and faster so if you conceive before the ovulation date it’s a girl

If you had sex more during the day and in the traditional position leads to a girl.If the love making was initiated by the mother then you have conceived a girl.

If you were drinking or are drinking plenty of milk or your diet is rich in dairy products like cheese butter yogurt and you are consuming fewer meats and eating foods that are sweeter and less salty, plus if you have gorged or are gorging too much on chocolates then for sure you are having a girl.

On a serious note none of the above are true, what is true is you are pregnant and that’s is a blessing and accept the blessing with happiness eat good healthy nutritional foods. That’s is! Eat Healthy and Live Healthy -The only fact!

Baby Development From 3-6 Months

By this period there is a huge physical change in the baby; not only the physical but also the social and motor skills of the baby have developed a lot. By now the baby has settled down with their sleeping and feeding patterns.By this time the mother has well adjusted to the baby’s needs and behavioral patterns.

Making eye contact with the family members, smiling and making you smile even when you are dead tired are some of the cherished moments between the mother and child.

By the 4^th month the baby has a better social reaction to her environment. Smiling laughing and getting excited when the mother is around is a way to show their bond towards their parent.

Social Activities like being taken out in fresh air in the stroller to bathing time have a reaction, most of the time it’s a feeling of happiness at times the baby can get cranky to show its discomfort.

The period of 5-6 moths is when the baby starts paying heed to their motor skills; they will use their hands and leg far more than before. Playing with their own hands and feet are a common habit in nearly all the babies.

Using their hands to touch objects or pull things is commonly seen. Nowadays babies are all hyper active they feel they have to achieve everything at the earliest. Turing on to their stomachs or twisting their bodies to see something that has caught their attention will also start.

At this stage the babies are very attentive and try to make the most of their limited motor skills, they lift up their head and with our finger support are all ready to sit up.

Colorful and noisy toys are their favorite at this period, buying some nice colorful rattles is necessary.

By the time the baby is 6 months old she recognizes who the family members are and who are strangers. Their comfort level with family and discomfort with guest is very evident.

At this stage giving the baby more freedom is vital, it is important to place the baby on the floor mat surrounded by their favorite toys and giving them space to kick with their legs and investigate with their hands.

Every parent should keep in mind that every child is different and every child’s growth is also different. It isn’t necessary your baby will be as active as your friends or relatives baby, comparing your child growth is a huge mistake. Being attentive towards the baby’s growth is good but please don’t get obsessed with it.

Give the baby space and love and see it grow into a happy baby!
