COMMENTS? I thought this was a really good sway and we tried very hard to follow everything we could. I had NT scan at 13w 1d this week and the tech said he will not guess this early (34 yrs experience, but he is a total arrogant jerk EVERY pregnancy I've had - DH hates him more than I do!). I asked twice and both times he insisted he doesn't check and would not be giving me any "shots" to try and guess on my own. THEN, as we're getting ready to walk out he goes "girl, girl, definitely a girl". So now I don't know whether to believe him or not. Still reluctantly hoping it is boy.

what an a**hole. i had a perinatalogist like that ALL arrogant (about other things). where do theseppl come off. does he know you want a boy?? then for sure he is teasing you. why would he tell you when youre about to walk out...to gain power/control. i hate those types.
i think your sway is GREAT!!!
question, why did you use real EW if you had your own ewcm, plus all the ewcm supps. just bc of ph? i was thinking of doing that too. i have my own ewcm, plenty, but i would have done real ew just for pH but i keep thinking the lemon water and bsd will take care of that...?
congrats on the pregnancy!!! :-)

I have the most ewcm a 3-4 days before o and then it tapers off. When TTC DD2, I had read TCOYF and used CM only to figure out when to give it a go. After charting for this one, I see that I probably was 3-4 days before o with the first, heavy EWCM.
I wanted more EWCM later since I knew that O was coming at the tail end of my EWCM days. I also wanted the higher PH of the real ew. I was very concerned about the PH. Even with alkaline diet and lemon water for months, my PH was only around 6-7. It only went up into the 8's after I added BSF + BSD.
BTW - He knew we were hoping for a boy - he sounded pretty certain when he said it was a girl.
