All I can say is this is a 50/50 risk. I was in the same boat but I had boys and wanted a girl. The consultants at the hospital told me that male sperm swims faster than female sperm so to have a boy you need to have sex on ovulation day and not after. you have to remember that sperm lives for 5 days so do not have sex before ovulation day as the risk is that the girl sperm is still around and gets to the egg first. I did use this method and I did get my girl.
