Default Boy or girl ?/

Since this board has been so slow I will throw this out there.

Have any of you heard the theory that boy sperm swim faster but die sooner and girl sperm swim slower and last longer. The idea is that if you are trying for a girl you have sex before you ovulate and if you want a boy you have sex the day you ovulate. ( I also heard that if you want a girl do not have a big O and if you want a boy have the big o after he does his thing )

What do you guys think? We had sex the day I ovulated and of course I have mr. man now

I wonder if there is any truth to it?

I heard that and my RE or OBGYN told me it was true.
I totally believe that since I have my DD and no boys yet.

we conceived after ovulation day and got a girl. i had also heard about this but we didn't use it as a basis for gender selection. even though i DID want a girl SO BAD! I guess i just got lucky and got my wish!

I don't know if it's true...I like to keep the mystery alive. Though i have heard the same thing.
