When Did You Conceive(month) & What Was the Gender of Your Baby?

Updated on October 19, 2011

I was just curious as to what months people conceived a girl or boy to see if it really matters. Some people say that more girls are conceived in the fall boys are conceived in winter. Or what did you do to sway if you did anything at all?

What can I do next?

I don't think the time of the year nor the position they are conceived in has anything to do with gender.
December-boy
June-girl
Does seem to be the case for me though ;)

Conceived in May/June and June/July (not exactly sure if it was last week or first week of either month. :) Both girls

I think it might also depend on the age of the mother, especially if you put stock in those Chinese Birth Charts which are supposed to be really accurate. (I mean it's got to be at least 50% accurate right?)

Conceived my first in December (born in August), and we had a girl. Conceived our second in February, and should know in about a week or two what we're having! I dont' think the time of year determines the gender, but I have read that getting pregnant during certain parts of your ovulation cycle can have an effect. Still, I don't think it's been proven. Most of what I read says that any of these theories show a 50% chance, so it's probably one of those things that just happens the way it's mean to with no way of controlling the results :)

I have 2 girls and 1 boy. The boy was conceived in late summer and so was one of the girls. The other girl was conceived in winter. I did nothing to sway the gender.

Both my babies were conceived in spring and both are winter babies; one boy and one girl, 23 months apart (my son's birthday is in December and my daughter's birthday is in January). We were in college and both were conceived around the time of finals during spring semester, so I guess you could say our stress-relief during those times resulted in two babies. ;-)
