A young pregnant woman comes into the

physician's office and states, “I told my husband I
will give him a son, because in my family I was the
only girl and I have four brothers." Is this a valid
statement? Explain to the expectant mother how
the gender of a newborn is determined.

Answer:

It's not valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not valid as it takes 19-20 weeks when pregnant to get a ultra scand to figure the babies correct gender. Also, she can't just decide what the babies gender is. Of course, sometimes the gender of the baby is more common in some families, but that's not all cases.
