AHAHA. Where to START?!

Okay, if you have sex more often, you're more likely to have a girl. And the old standbys abouthow NOT to get pregnant - sex on your period is "safe", and the less believable ones like coke douches and such I've only heard about anecdotally, as in, I heard of them as "myths about pregnancy", not as myths about pregnancy, you get the difference?

Woman on top is more likely to have a boy, carrying high is a boy, swinging a pendant over your palm - if the arc is wide it's a boy, if it's more still it's a girl, I think...

You'll also want to collect labor induction myths like sex (though apparently this has some basis in fact as the prostaglandins in sperm can help induce contractions?), alcohol, spicy foods, etc.
