Good luck! I'm like you, wanted a boy this time. The Shettles Method for conceiving a boy is to BD ("baby dance" if you're not up with the lingo on here yet

) day before, day of and day after ov. We BD just the day before ovulation and the day before that. Couldn't be bothered for the next few days LOL but got pregnant and it's a boy
We had lots of sex the cycle DD was conceived and well she's a girl hehe, so wouldn't listen to your dad on that one either
ETA my friend has 3 boys - the first one they weren't TTC (on the pill), but the next two they BD every 2nd day and got boys both times (they weren't trying for a particular gender, it just worked out that way).
