Do genetic combination of mothers play a significant role in determining the sex of a newborn?
No, the genetic combination of mothers doesn't play a significant role in determining the sex of a newborn because mothers have a pair of X-chromosomes. All children will inherit an 'X' chromosome from their mother regardless of whether they are boys or girls.

The uterus prepares itself by increasing the thickness of the endometrium layer and blood vessels to nourish the baby. However, when the egg does not fertilize, the uterus slowly breaks along the endometrium lining and bleeds through the vagina. This process is called menstruation.
