The gender of your baby is determined at conception based on the combination of sex chromosomes contributed by each parent (X or Y from the father, X from the mother). However, predicting whether you will have a boy or a girl is not possible through non-medical methods before conception. Consult with a healthcare professional for any prenatal testing or genetic counseling if you wish to know the sex of your baby during pregnancy.
