It is the fact that the sex of your unborn baby is determined at the moment of conception and depends on the type of a sperm cell that would fertilize an egg cell. If the X-chromosome sperm reaches the egg, then the baby is a girl. If the Y-chromosome joins the egg, then the baby is a boy.

However, some interesting observations and statistics exist that we can’t turn a blind eye to. So, one cannot state emphatically that the sex of a baby is impossible to predict.
