Baby's Complexion

Your baby's complexion depends purely on you and your husband's genes.A healthy eating can improve the complexion of babies..Elder's advice is to add  1 or 2 strands of saffron to a glass of milk and drink it for fair complexion.There is no evidence to support this. If you are using it ,for a safer side use it after the first trimester (after 12 weeks)of pregnancy.Consuming large amount of saffron can cause contractions

Fertilization days

 
The 10th,11th,12th ,13th and 14th day in a  28 days period cycle are  best fertile days for conception.The 14th day is the ovulation day,the most fertile day.

The 10th,11th and 12th day are best for conceiving a baby girl .The 13th,14th and 15th day are best for conceiving a baby boy.

At conception gender is determined by chromosome characteristics,and it will be the male's  sperm that dictates whether the baby will be boy or girl.

There is no 100% guarantee that you will be able to conceive  a boy or girl .No matter what gender your child ends up being,the important thing is  you should have a healthy baby.Just try it and leave everything in god's hand.
