Limited choices: Some ivf centers offer embryo selection and implantation that can assist you on this issue.However, this is expensive and not 100% successful technology. Your chances at any conception run 50% for either sex. You may be better off trying the natural route and accepting what you get. If you are not ready to accept another possible girl into the family, quit now.

Yes: It is the chromosomal material brought to the egg by the sperm that decides the sex of a baby. The chances of you having a boy are 50% with each conception.That said, you could also have another girl.
