Introduction of the O+12 System
The O+12 System (pronounced “oh plus twelve”) refers to a system to conceive a girl, which proves itself to be a successful system to conceive a girl. This system highly suggests sexual intercourse about 12 hours following the ovulation in order to conceive a girl. That’s how its name comes – O (for ovulation) plus 12 (hours). The O+12 system refutes to the Shettles System, which claims a baby boy will be conceived if you have sexual intercourse on the very day of ovulation. But please note that The O+12 System is only an approach for in an effort to conceive a girl, nothing in it suggests how to conceive a boy.
Let’s use the O+12 System to help us to conceive a girl!
Essential Key of the O+12 System: Identifying Ovulation
Before getting into the details of the O+12 System, please note that whether we can identify our ovulation precisely will determine whether a O+12 attempt will succeed. So please get ready to spend some time to find out the working manner of your body (by which you will be amazed) and to study how to find out the subtle signs that ovulation is just coming up.
How to Conceive A Girl With The O+12 System
1. The husband must avoid ejaculating for no less than 7 days before sexual intercourse, the longer the better.
This does not mean simply “no sex”, which is not enough. “No ejaculation” means that it would be best for the wife to keep an eye on the husband in the shower, doing your best to make sure the husband to abstain from the very first day of your cycle.
Why we are doing this? Since the female sperm theoretically lives for a longer time than the male sperm, an “older” group of sperm is supposed to have more female than male sperm (approximately 2% more in quantity, based on some reports).
2. Have sexual intercourse for only one time with the timing of 8 to 20 hours immediately after ovulation.
You can begin to count the 8-20 hours when…
- Any strong O pain has gone away.
- Your CM starts to turn from EWCM into creamy or sticky.
- Your cervix starts to turn into less soft and high.
- Prepare to have sexual intercourse, waiting until you have seen your BBT shift up.
3. Never have any sexual intercourse any more unless you are sure that you are absolutely not fertile.
Before having any more sexual intercourse again, try a contraceptive and/or hang on until both of you are sure that you are absolutely not fertile, since the “fresh” group of sperm are supposed to have more male sperm.
Your fertile stage will have past after you have had THREE or more high temperatures on the BBT chart.
4. You can also follow the following recommended guidance, working together with the O+12 System:
- Adopt diets that help to conceive a girl
- Using supplements (calcium and magnesium, cranberry etc.)
- Douching before sexual intercourse with a lemon douche (mix fresh-squeezed juice of 1/2 lemon with an equal proportion of water).
Background of the O+12 System
The O+12 System wasn’t developed by a doctor, or published in a publication. It was in fact first raised by an Australian woman, a Shettles supporter who had got six sons at first and then started to consider that she may conceive a girl by timing sexual intercourse right after ovulation, unlike Shettles’ theory. Finally she delivered a baby girl, and this lady began to share her method with many other mothers. A lot of those mothers succeed to conceive a girl as well. Then people started to put this system and the stories online to help others on how to conceive a girl.
The O+12 System got more developments by examining the “New Zealand Research” publicized in 1984. This research was conducted in order to check the Shettles System via monitoring objectives who participated in the program very carefully for the purpose of discovering the time of ovulation.
The scientists in the research claimed that the final results “evidently refute” the Shettles System, because the majority of conceptions which occurred 3 to 5 days prior to ovulation were boys, not girls (which was claimed by Shettles). Kynzi discovered there’s only one day on which more girls than boys were conceived, which was the day immediately next to ovulation.
In addition to the New Zealand Research project, more information was evidently disclosed indicating that the ratio of female-to-male sperm was greater if a man abstained from ejaculation for a certain period of time.
