Any younger ladies TTC a girl?

[sbowman]

Are there any special considerations based on my age? I'll be 22 when I actually (plan) to get pregnant. Anyone else close to my age have advice? I feel like, being young and extremely fertile, I'm pretty much doomed to have boys. I really, really want this to work!

No advice really but there are plenty of teen girls having girls so clearly anything is possible. :-). Best of luck!

I'm 24 and starting TTC pink in january!

Loads of my friends, same age or younger, have girls!

Age doesn't guarantee fertility either - I need help this time (my OH calls me Barren Obama! :fight: (jokingly, I better add)).

I'd just follow the LE diet, go veggie and try to relax. One of the key features of boy mums seem to be uptight'ness. So chiiiill out and go completely kum ba yah

I would recommend going veggie a few month before you start the LE diet and then steadily ease into it. If you can loose weight, loose some - even a few lbs. If you can't, don't sweat it! You can still lower your general condition by keeping a steady weight.

I'm 25 and ttc girl but I had three boys in my younger days... Most of my friends that had babies young had girls tho

I'm 35 now, so def not young. Had my son when I was 23 but didn't sway with him. Both my friends, same age had girls though at the same time I had mine, so I don't really think age really matters most. Good luck, hope you get your little girl!

I'm 22 and swayed girl :) I find out she's a she in 2 weeks!! Hehe! DH is 26!

25 and have 2 boys (I was 22, and 24 when I had them). I also thought I'd have boys for some reason and I was right.

My attempt is any day now, so it'll be interesting to see. Right now I just want to get pregnant!

I wish us all pink dust! I don't know why teenagers always have girls...not fair lol. It seems like those of us in the younger 20s always end up with boys (including me, my first is a boy), so hopefully swaying will fix that. :)

wow, I am 33 and will be 34 when swaying, and I am feeling old reading ur posts:worry:

I'm 35 now but had girls at 19, 22, 24, 26 and 28. So it's completely possible!! And I must have been pretty fertile because I was a OHW with all of them!

I have a friend who had two girls when i had my first two boys, she was slightly younger than me, i was 22 nearly 23 with ds1, 26 with ds2. Although i was considered a really young mom and didn't have many other friends pregnant with me, most are only just expecting their third.

I think age aside, if you prone to boys you are prone to boys regardless of age (i hope at 30 age would be in my favour now but it turns out you'd need to be closer to 40 to have age in your favor and even then boys still happen). Swaying though will counteract this if can make your fertility lower and lower his sperm count. I was convinced this was ds4, totally shocked when i heard pink, i am convinced that would not have happened without this site. Good luck x

You're not old Cauliflower! I feel really embarrassed that I'm so young and already have a son. He wasn't planned but we agreed we wanted to go ahead and continue with our family instead of waiting a long time and trying then. Would rather just have the three kids we want and be done with it. My original plan was to wait until I was 30 to TTC. Whoops.

I would start off very strict and then gradually drop tactics over time, one or two a month.

It is totally possible to be OHW and have all girls! :)
