I did it! There is a method using lime, called the TBM - Turkey Baster Method. And we have concieved a girl via artificial insemination at home! It sounds crazy, but after 3 boys, a daughter is coming and we do jokingly call her our little lime baby! Anyone else try this at home and how were your gender results?

That's interesting, I've never heard of that before. I hadn't tried that. We heard that "male and female" sperm lived different lengths and so we planned conception around that. It worked out for us the way we hoped because we got a girl! Next time we'll do the opposite thing and hopefully get a boy.

Congrats on your girl! Thats the shettles method you used. I thought about it, but heard so many people getting oppostite from that. We thought about microsort too, but that was looking like $15,000, so we figured a round at home would be good! Theres about 30 women on babycenter.com that are doing lime and changing their PH levels to achieve gender. The more acidic you are, that favors girls and the more alkaline, boy. I took a lot of supplements including calcium and cranberry to lower my bodys PH to a 4.5 (thats LOW) and added lime to my husbands sample to get him from a 8.5 down to a 4.5! Tada! Girl! Good luck with conceiving your boy!
