Any additional comments?

Any relevant attempt details?
I ovulated a week earlier than I was expecting so a lot of my sway plans didn't happen. I didn't get to use preseed and I didn't BD through O.
Did you do anything with Ions?
-
Moon Phase during conception?
-
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?

Things that make me feel great about my sway:
My diet was pretty good.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I didn't get to use preseed, which I had in my head as an absolute must do. We also didn't BD through O as I ovulated earlier than expected and my husband was away. I think I had less EWCM the month we conceived than in the previous few months. At the time I was hoping I wouldn't get pregnant because it didn't go to plan!
Things worth mentioning:
I'm very happy to be pregnant and I really don't mind if the baby is a boy or girl just so long as it's healthy x

Best of luck! You never know, maybe your changes will bring a boy! If not, a healthy baby is wonderful too!

It's late here and I'm on my phone so will have to give a better reply tomorrow but...

I've included full fat dairy (forgot to inc cheese above) to my sway as part of the HE diet and because prior to starting the diet I have hardly ever consumed any dairy at all including when I conceived my girls.

I'm sure atomic mentioned it in the HE diet info too but will have to see if I can find that tomorrow.

I'm not going to stress about it, can't change anything now :)

All of us blue swayers or most of us anyway included full fat dairy into our sways since it is recommended and part of the HE diet

So was it completely off to avoid dairy when trying for a little man?? That was pretty hard for me I'm such a dairy person! 15 weeks pregnant and all I eat is cheese!! I can OD on it 😆
Will you post some scan pics when your ready for it ?? Find the "NUB" theory really fun! Good luck!

Thanks all!

I'm glad it isn't just me that thought it's best to eat full fat dairy for a boy sway.
It is mentioned in the HE Diet FAQ (http://genderdreaming.com/forum/trying-conceive-boy/27056-he-diet-faq.html)

Bump+Me - I will post scan pics when I have them. I have no idea what I would be looking for so would love to see what peoples predictions are :)

Awesome!
Just out of curiosity did you check your PH balance while you did the diet?
