I am 38 years old and just stopped pumping for my 17 month old baby girl 2-3 weeks ago, before that I was down to 1 pump a day and only getting 1.5 ounces so I decided to stop. Does this have any effect on a boy sway?

This is my 3rd month charting and last month we tried but got a BFN that month. Currently CD3 and will be trying again this month with Preseed and 3-5 attempts after I get a + OPK.

Supplements:
Prenatal vitamin with 600 mg folate in it
Folic Acid -was taking an additional 400mg everyday but will up that. Should I aim for 1800 or 2200mg total?
Fish oil- was taking 2000 a day but will decrease that to 1000
Vitamin d
Probiotic-Will start daily today
CoQ10-Just started 100mg daily yesterday


For our first baby:After being on BCP for 18 years and stopping we were able to get pregnant on the 3rd month. I was just coming off a very low carb diet and I was taking vitamins, baby aspirin, and drinking red raspberry leaf tea 2-3 times a day from AF-O, so now after reading it doesn't surprise me that we had a baby girl.

Any other suggestions? Would love a baby boy to carry on my husband's last name as he is the last and there are no other boys in his family to carry it on. Due to our age we will probably stop at 2 kids. Thanks

Breastfeeding may sway slightly pink but tons of us (myself included) got boys while nursing.

I think you are on target for a great blue sway - are you lifting weights at all? that may help

Not doing any lifting at the moment, don't belong to a gym anymore since I got pregnant 2.5 years ago. I'd be OK if I had another girl, DD1 is a lot of fun.
