I want a girl so bad 🥹

A friend of mine told me that there are times in the month you’re supposed to conceive and follow a specific diet to have a girl… she said it’s how she had hers and it’s common in her culture… google sent me down a major rabbit hole of contradictory info… have any one you tried this?
