I was wondering if all fetii were happy, and if there's anything we can do to make them more comfortable in there, so I plugged in 'happy fetus' into google and came up with this:
NARAL & NOW Launch ‘Happy Fetus’ Animated Ads
by Scott Ott for ScrappleFace ·
(2003-06-17) — The National Abortion Rights Action League and the National Organization for Women announced today they will fight Norma McCorvey’s efforts to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court decision which made her the central figure in the abortion debate.Mrs. McCorvey, the ‘Jane Roe’ of Roe v. Wade, has filed a motion in Federal District Court in Dallas, asking the courts to overturn the decision to legalize abortion. Her case is based on new evidence of the negative effects of abortion on women.NARAL and NOW say they will strike back with a multi-million dollar national TV ad blitz featuring an animated character called “Happy Fetus.” In the ads, Happy Fetus, who resembles a brine shrimp, is “not very happy.” He’s stuck in a “dark, cramped and lonely womb.” He wishes someone would pull him out right away because he doesn’t want to be born and “have to grow up in a world where a woman’s right to an abortion is threatened by right-wing extremists.”At the end of the commercial, the narrator says, “Making abortion illegal again would be a life sentence to hundreds of thousands of fetuses, who would otherwise have avoided having to live on this miserable planet. It’s too late for you and me. We’re already stuck here. But you can help make Happy Fetus happy again. Keep abortion legal.”
Was this for real? Did it really happen? Has the whole world gone insane?
Dark, cramped, and lonely??
Do they really believe the planet is miserable for everyone??
Do they really think a fetus would rather die than live a full life?
OH MY FUCKING GOD.
I'm sorry this has to be a joke, right?
If it isn't, I completely hate these NARAL/NOW idiots/bastards.
Well, anyway, here's a link on Fetal Experience.
In other words, make sure baby lives as stress-free as possible in there. Stress is bad.
Calm placid tranquility? Goodness. Ahhh.

Do you want a Boy or Girl? 7 tactics
This was online, in regards to what to do if you want a boy or girl:
1) to have a girl u have sex a day or 2 befor u ovulate. for a boy u have sex when u are actually ovulating. male sperms swim faster so if u are ovulating chances are the male sperm will get to egg first. female sperm live longer than males so if u have sex b4 u ovulate when the egg gets there the only sperm left are females.
I suspect that's all that needs to be said.
But, I'll make an attempt at thouroughness.
Ovulation prediction kits are a very popular method of detecting ovulation. Ovulation prediction kits are necessary if you are trying to get pregnant with a boy because they help you find the exact time you are ovulating. The use of ovulation predictor kits is recommended by medical practitioners. How do ovulation kit works?Ovulation prediction kits work by detecting a surge in luteinizing hormone (LH), that happens 12 to 48 hours prior to ovulation. How to use ovulation predictor kits to conceive a boy?Test with your ovulation predictor kit twice a day so that you can know precisely when you are about to ovulate: preferably once between 11 am and 3 pm and then again between 5 pm and 10 pm. You need to wait until about 12 hours after your body has released LH as detected with ovulation prediction kit to have intercourse in order to conceive a boy.
I say, To be a good dad, discuss what sex the two of you want, and your plans for either, both, or none. You can then decide what, if any, of the steps in this post you might want to take in furtherance of your creating a child of a preferred sex. Personally, I don't care.
2) woman's diet
boy: salty food, meat, fish, white flour, pasta, fresh fruit, certain vegetables-
girl: milk, yoghurt, cheese, nuts, chocolate, shellfish, wholemeal bread
"In a nutshell, to conceive a boy you should consume foods high in sodium and potassium, and minimize the intake of calcium and magnesium!A caffeinated drink taken by the man right before sex, makes the boy-producing Y sperm more active!"
3) doggy-style sex for boy, she says
4) woman comes first (changes vagina's natural acidity to increase sperm-friendlier alkalinity)
5) high-sperm count (M sperm (XY) are less strong: wear boxers and loose trousers)
6)Plus, there's this Chinese birth chart, which someone said was 93% accurate, based on the date and your age(s?); chart! "Look up the month the baby was conceived, or the month you’re planning to conceive, and cross it with your age at the time of conceiving! Letters “B” and “G” stand for “boy” and “girl” respectively. Bear in mind that no scientific study ever proved that Chinese birth gender chart is accurate. Nevertheless, it wasn’t proved that it’s inaccurate either! Those who do believe in Chinese conception chart, claim that it is 93% accurate! How they got that exact number, I don’t know! You can try this method just for fun, and if the chart’s prediction is correct you will find out nine months later anyway."
So, that's 6 things. Happy conceiving!
Okay, okay, there's one more:
7) Astrologically, "boys are more likely if the moon is in · Aries· Gemini· Leo· Libra· Sagittarius· Aquarius". I don't know if this is a scientifically accurate measurement, or just a "they say."
As an aside: boy vs. girl isn't such a cut and dry thing, it seems.
Here's a quote from a FOX article about the IAAF verifying the gender of a South African runner:
"He said the "extremely complex, difficult" test has been started but that the results were not expected for weeks. The verification test requires a physical medical evaluation, and includes reports from a gynecologist, endocrinologist, psychologist, an internal medicine specialist and an expert on gender."

Developing Smarts
The article source I got this from called it "So you want to raise an Einstein":
1. Talk to babies. At eye level. Vary your tone. Let them watch your lips.
2. Say real stuff, not just musically monosyllabic nonsense words.
3. Read to babies -- books, yes, but also print in the environment: traffic signs, product labels, whatever.
4. Provide variety: toys of many textures, colors and shapes; toys with moving parts; toys that squeak, sing and make noises.
5. Let babies focus. Give them just one or two toys at a time.
6. Forestall boredom. Switch toys when the baby starts to lose interest.
7. Back off: Sometimes a baby just wants to zone out.
8. Interact. Wave a finger for them to track. Make sounds from various surprising locations so they’ll turn to look for you. (There's a reason every culture has a version of the peek-a-boo game.)
9. Put interesting toys just out of a baby's reach. Pediatricians say it motivates babies to reach and move and grasp. I say, it's never too early to learn there's no free lunch.
10. Take DHA. Really.
DHA is one of the omega-3 essential fatty acids. It comes from cold-water fish oil and makes kids smarter. If nursing mothers take it, the baby will get it in his or her milk.
