Is Gender Pre-Selection Possible?

It may seem the stuff of science fiction – decide on the gender of your baby before he or she is ever even conceived.  But doctors have realized it’s now possible for fertility specialists to use medicinal know-how to attempt to pre-select whether your child is going to be wearing more pink or blue.

(The actual means for doing so is outside the scope of this blog post.)

Though many couples simply want to have a healthy baby, knowing that they can pre-select the gender of their child is an attractive possibility to others.  For instance, recently, celeb couple Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale visited a fertility specialist to determine how they could (almost) guarantee a baby girl.  According to sources close to the couple, they’re using science to help them achieve this family goal.

Again, the majority of partners may be uninterested in this kind of gender selection process.  And not all fertility specialists are familiar with how to go about pre-selecting.  Therefore, it’s critical that if this IS important to you that you have a frank discussion with your fertility specialist.  The more open you can be, the better your chances of having a strong, successful working relationship with your reproductive health professional will be.
