Dad's genes
Is there a way to make the fathers DNA more in the baby than the mother's. Like time of the month you try to produce or through scientifically. Is it possible to do that

Everyone including the biology major is incorrect, it's almost never a 50-50% split genetically, that's just close to the average.
That being said, no- nobody has even tried to make a lopsided mix favoring one parent over another beyond crispr gene deletion, and that's extremely rare as pretty much every nation on the planet freaked out when China tried it, but they were trying to eliminate a disease trait, not favor one sex over another percentage wise.
Aspergers isn't that bad of a disorder and if the father isn't a carrier, kid is much less likely to have it with your severity, or at all. You just have low serotonin and dopamine right now, and it is making you very depressed and leading you to unreasonable fears.
This was the subject of a Star Trek Voyager episode: Season 7, Episode 12 Lineage. She kept trying to get the doctor to delete her DNA from the baby.

This was also Michael Jackson's problem when he had a white woman give birth to "his" child, a fully white baby named "Blanket", which just ruined the life of what otherwise wouod of been a normal child.
The problem isn't passing on Aspergers. It's a managable disorder, and the kid is unlikely to have it to your degree. The problem is a paychological affliction in you, and it isn't aspergers. It's your own self loathing. You gotta get over yourself and just accept nature is going to do it's thing. You are in a relationship with a man, a child is the natural result. You'll likely be a decent mother. Don't stress it now, save that for the delivery room.

No, it takes 46 chromosomes and your ova has 23 and his sperm, 23. The resultant progeny will share an equal amount of DNA from each parent, although their expression will depend on the combination of dominant and recessive genes, so it could look or "act" like one parent more than the other. Afaik, there is no way to manipulate which combination you might get from home.

Its about the expression of genes a male offspring is half his father xy whereas a daughter is xx, but still half her father. . I do wonder though maybe ask a rhabbi or a geneologist. There might be certain strategies to ensure expression of the fathers genes. The jews zorastorians persians and japanese have been doing this for the longest maybe consult with them.

No. Genetics are weird so you cannot guarantee or make a child have only one persons genetics be more prevalent
One of my kids is spitting image of her dad, my other dossnt look like either of ys at all. Genetics are weird

No it’s not possible. When a sperm fertilizes an egg 50% of the DNA comes from the father and 50% from the mother.
Anything else would be genetic manipulation and 100% unethical.

Nope. Some have tried. They end up with an extra chromosome or something....trisomy.
It's really bad.

I don't think so.
You can have a lot of kids to increase the odds [Just joking I wouldn't recommend this].

Yeah you just need scientists to experiment on your embryos easy
