I'm thinking about having a second child and really hope for a baby boy to complete our family. My first child is a lovely 3.5-year-old girl. Is there any advice or methods to help conceive a boy?

While it's not possible to guarantee the gender of your baby naturally, some methods like timing intercourse around ovulation or choosing specific positions may slightly influence the odds. However, it's important to remember that the most accurate way to select a baby's gender is through medical procedures like IVF with genetic testing, though these come with ethical and legal considerations.

View allI'm a bit concerned after our 29-week anomaly scan showed a collapsed fetal stomach. Everything seemed normal during the NT scan, so I'm wondering if this is something to be worried about. Could you provide some guidance or insight on this?
At 29 weeks, a collapsed fetal stomach can be transient, but monitoring is essential. Consult your obstetrician for personalized guidance. Typically, follow-up ultrasounds at 32-34 weeks and regular fetal movement tracking alleviate concerns. Review the ultrasound report and growth charts
