Was thinking back to when my girls were conceived and i remembered that my DH was taking antihistamines before and during ttc !
do you think this might of helped us conceive our daughter ? i know pink swayers take antihistamines to dry up cm so maybe they "dry up " our men aswell ?

Yes I definitely think they sway pink in men too, after all their chief mechanism is too dry up bodily fluid and isnt that what semen is.. :)

Yes possibly, but it really never comes down to one thing like that (unless that one thing is luck). In our pink TTC a girl stats, antihistamines only had somewhere around 56% success rate and that's with a full pink sway.

All any of these things can do is just thin out the ranks a little bit - none of them are a magic bullet.

A lot of women give their husbands Sudafed for a pink sway, it's safer for men to take then it is for women. (it does the same thing). We don't really know if it sways when taken by DH or not - it may make it a little bit harder for sperm to leave the semen and make it into the CM and could lower sperm count that way.

I think she's joking. Please do not drug your husbands against their will, first of all it's morally wrong and secondly this could be extremely dangerous if let's say, you gave him anthistamine, then he drank alcohol, or drove. My husband did literally nothing to sway and was barely on board for BD and we still got DD. It is your condition that matters most.
