sex of baby-babies in ivf ?

Post by abbie »

I wondering if these facts are somewhat true, either someone told me or a read it...I can`t remember... :lol:
When doing IVF usually you have a boy baby because the male sperm is faster, and with ICIS you get girl babies because they are easier to catch?? anyone ever heard of that before? :shock:

Hi

I can remember my DH asking the nurse at the start of our IVF treatment if boys were more likely during IVF because male sperm swim faster! I remember her saying that the numbers for each sex were approx the same and there would surely be more boys if this were the case!
We had half and half IVF and ICSI (only the ICSI worked for some reason!) and we have a girl, so who knows!

I think any kind of sex prediction that way is a load of crap - same as any way %50 chance. Good luck.
