    Well, you could check donorsiblingregistry.com I guess. Yet, even choosing a donor that has mostly boys will not guarantee a boy for yourself.

    Your best bet (even there ven id one in your region) would be to find a clinic that will do microsort on donor sperm for family ballancing purposes. Even at that, your chances are maybe 60-70% to get a boy, and it is very expensive. most likely, you'll just have to roll the dice. IUI does tilt a little towards boys because of timing issues, but that is very slight.

    I do not think she necessary wants to mess with nature. I understood that she wants to increase her chances of having a boy. Realistically, there is no way of guaranteeing a certain sex. I personally also want to let nature decide and we will get what we get. I do not think it is necessary a bad thing to want to increase the chances of having a baby of one sex or the other, as long as the baby is loved, no matter what sex!

    Jess,

    I think the emotion you are unloading on Tannie has nothing to do with her question, but with your own situation. If you read Tannie's post, you know that she already has a daughter and just thinks it would be nice, all things being equal, to have one child of each sex. That is a far cry from not loving or wanting any healthy baby. Why is wanting something okay but acting on what you want so wrong?

    Did you talk to me with your second point?
