Is Diet A Big Factor In The Determination Of Baby Gender?



Scientists are still searching for the answer to this question, if a mother's diet before conception and during pregnancy has some kind of influence over her future child's gender. From researches made so far it seems that maternal diet may determine in some way the baby gender. 

Whether you want a girl or a boy, the mother must follow a proper diet with at least two and a half months before the baby's conception, but also during the first trimester of pregnancy. It is told that a high-calorie diet can help you if you want your next child to be a boy; another fact that will increase your chances is that you should have breakfast every day. As a result of some researches made at the universities from Exeter and Oxford, it had been shown that modern women tend to opt for a low calorie diet a fact that led to the reduction of the number of boys born in last years. From this study on an echelon of 740 pregnant women, who were asked for information about eating habits before and during the first trimester of pregnancy, it was found that 56 percent of the women following a diet with high levels of calories had born boys, while only 45 percent of the women that had a low calorie have become mothers of boys. The average number of calories consumed per day by pregnant women who had born in boys was 2400, and for the mothers of girls, of about 2100. From the information given by pregnant women about their diet, it was found that those who consumed more nutrients in various forms, such as potassium and sodium, as well as those who ate cereal for breakfast, had borne boys, and women who had a diet rich in magnesium and calcium, and those who consumed foods such as potatoes, cottage cheese, bread without salt, have become mothers of girls. 

Of course, you should not take to extreme your wish of having a baby with a specific gender, you should think about that the most important thing for you should be to have a perfectly healthy child, and this can be achieved if you make sure that the baby has all the nutrients that he needs to develop normally. Here we go back to the eating habits of the mother before and during pregnancy, she has to ensure that she provides her baby with the proper amount of vitamins, proteins, minerals and other nutrients for a baby's healthy growth. Many times we heard from pregnant women the statement I am pregnant, I have to eat for two now! That is not true at all, you don't have to eat large amounts of food, instead you should watch out what you eat, not how much you eat. Specialists strongly recommend that mothers who want girls shouldn't not starve to grasp, they have to make sure their diet contains at least 2000 calories per day, because if not, this will negatively influence their baby's health.
