I joined ingender a few weeks ago and their site is down, I found this great site and hoping to get any advice. Mid October my DH and I decided to try for baby#2, I did the boy diet for about 5 days straight, I tested PH constantly maintaining 8+, I did the ion sway with cell phone on my stomach, drinking BS, doing BSF, everything, even using opk.... AF was 4 days late, I thought It was going to be a BFP... nope, got AF and got a BFN. I was heartbroken. I know it is not common to concieve the 1st month trying, but with AF coming late I swore I was pregnant.... Now I am back on the boy diet, supplements (L-Arginine, folic acid, prenantal vitamin, fish oil, B12) STILLL drinking the gross Baking soda drink and I eat a min 1 can of high sodium soup a day. Any one else sway boy or ttc boy and have success stories? Any advice is appreciated..... We would love to have a DD2 but if we can try for a boy, we will.

**I got a positive opk in the morning and we DTD that late night, Idk if we missed our window?

Hi prayingforaboy, welcome to GD :) I am not sure about the IG way of swaying but here most of us put a lot of stock in the diet and supps for swaying boy. Idealy you would want to be on the HE (high everything) diet for at least 6 weeks before you ttc. This is because you want your body to store up on lots of nutrients to be able to support a male child. The supps you list there are good, i dont think baking soda is necessary though, that is up to you.

Here are the boy sways, you might want to look through the sucessful ones - Add Your Boy Sway! (http://genderdreaming.com/forum/add-your-boy-sway/)
