If you are desperate for a baby of a certain sex, then baby gender selection may be something that you are looking into.
Although certain society's look down at picking the gender of your baby.
For some people it's a dream come true.
There can be many reasons why obtaining a baby of a certain sex is desired by some couples or individuals.
From genetic illness and disease to just a simple case of wanting to raise a baby of a particular gender.
When researching baby sex selection, you will learn that very littleis guaranteed 100%.
Which can leave you in a difficult situation.
Should you risk thousands of pounds (or dollars) to conceive a little boy that you really want and have an approximately 25% error margin! Or perhaps a little girl, with a 10% error margin.
Most medical gender selection processes aren't exactly cheap.
So when charging this much money, you would think they could get this process right! Microsort method Microsort is an extension to IVF, but instead of just implanting any embryo back into your uterus, it is hopefully (fingers crossed) an embryo which is the gender of your choice.
The x and the y bearing sperm are sorted before being mixed with the egg in IVF, ICSI or before being used in IUI (artificial insemination) So let's look at some figures, Microsort technology gives you an approximate (this may be slightly different either way) 90% chance of selecting a girl, or a lower approximate rate of 75% for a boy.
In other words, if you want a girl, there is still a 1 in 10 chance of having a boy.
If you want a boy, then there is a 1 in 4 chance of you having a girl! The chances of the IVF procedure itself working is only around 35%, IUI (artificial insemination) pregnancy rate is only around 15% PGD method Let's look at another method, PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis) This is the by far the most expensive method of gender selection.
Costing more than IVF and ICSI, It very nearly hits the 100% guarantee for giving you the baby of your preferred gender.
The expense alone leaves many people out in the cold light of day.
Although PGD is mainly used by people looking to lessen the chances of having a baby with genetic illness, it is now becoming more widely available for gender selection purposes too.
Ericsson method The Ericsson method is more affordable, and the process only takes around 4 hours.
The father would provide a sperm sample at an Ericsson clinic, after the sperm sample has been sorted, the mother would be inseminated.
The whole process is carried out on the day that the mother is believed to be ovualting.
So onto success rates - Around 78%-85% for boys, and 73%-75% for girls.
Rather a large error margin for both sexes.
With any of the above methods, wouldn't you be just totally devastated, if after paying that sort of money you were left with a baby of the wrong gender, or even worse, no baby at all! Natural gender selection method There is another way to conceive a baby of your preferred gender.
After all if you would be willing to try these above methods, but just haven't budgeted to that amount.
Then I know of a way that has an approximate 94% success rate...
and to top it all off, it's hundreds of dollars cheaper than those above!
