[nholtz87]

We went by opks an thought for sure I ovulated a few days before but instead pretty sure I ovulated yesterday since I had temp rise today. Barely an cm used preseed, an dh refused to bd the day before yesterday luckily we did bd yesterday but I feel if we do concieve itll be a girl an im already sad

If you were on the HE diet and moderately exercising, I wouldn't worry about it. I didn't know anything about swaying and led a classic boy lifestyle. We only BDed once in my fertile window with DS2 and he is definitely a boy!!

FX for you!!

I was eating more calories an no wasnt exercising. I was using preseed. And eating more variety and no low fat like I usually do. But knowing my luck I will get pregnant and itll be a girl. I just wanted to feel like our family was complete an have a son with dh.
I mean do I even have a prayer for a boy if I wasnt exercising or following he diet exactly? I was drinking lemon water. Ugh idk im so sad right now. If only dh woulda put out the night before last

[XXforhubby]

Hang in there sweetie! You have a good chance at having a boy! Even if you swayed your hardest, an opposite could still happen. I would suspend all judgement until you know for sure what you are having. Prepare for another DD just in case!

FWIW, my DH would love to be in your shoes! He has always longed for a DD! I'll give you some of my blue baby dust (I'm currently pregnant with DS3), for some of your pink baby dust!! We are going to TTC again for baby #4 after this little guy is born!

Hugs sweetie!!! Remember, no sway is ever perfect but the little baby growing in your tummy sure is [emoji8]!!

You always have a chance of a boy. Please don't despair, it is completely possible to get a boy at any point in time.

[nholtz87]

U can have all my pink dust lol an im sure if I had all or mostly boys id want a girl. Idk if ill even get pregnant this cycle from our bd times, I guess we shall see.
Do u guys happen to know what time of day ppl normally ovulate ?

[XXforhubby]

People can ovulate anytime of the day actually. It is hard to pin point even with temping.

I'm in a similar situation. Since af showed 5 days ago, I haven't been following the HE like I normally do. I forgot my V8 a few days and didn't always have protein with my carbs. I ate more cakes and refined carbs than I usually do too. I'm nervous that if I get pregnant this month, I'll have a girl too. I'm going to go hard core HE again now and hope the past 6 weeks of HE will help.

I can guarantee ya that most of us all-boy moms had days where we did not have V8 or ate mostly carbs and still got boys.

Swaying (at least on Gender Dreaming with HE/LE Diets) is NOT "you must eat this perfectly and never screw up even the slightest thing or you'll have an opposite" . I know that's what the "mineral diets" train people to believe but IT IS NOT THE CASE. All we are doing wtih our diets is trying to optimize our odds. It does not MATTER if you do everything and certainly not everything perfectly all the time, you're just trying to move in the "boy" diretion from where you were before. You may get a boy if you do only 10% of the diet stuff. THe HE Diet is just a goal to aim for and not a "must do all these things or get a girl" Very very few (if any) of us boy moms did EVERYTHING in the HE Diet, just do what you personally can do.

Well 8dpo an I am pregnant!!!!! We got our rainbow now just praying he/she is a sticky bean. Also praying for blue although I feel like since we didnt dtd until nine pm the day of o im pretty sure the 3day old sperm was waiting an fertilized the egg an ima get another girl. Any thoughts?

[True Blue]

Congratulations and good luck :bluecheer:

[atomic sagebrush]

Timing doesn't sway one bit so don't worry. THere are many of us on here, myself included who got boys with 3 day cutoffs.

[nholtz87]

Thanks guys. Honestly now that I got bfp idc either way as lomg as baby sticks and is healthy. I dont want to go through a chemical or mmc again.

[nholtz87]

Well hcg doubling every 31hrs so im guessing baby is another girl lol. Went from 18.8 mon to 90.7 today. Least bean is healthy. Hmmm maybe two? Lol

[atomic sagebrush]

Why do you say that??? The HCG?? there was just a general trend that girls make ON AVERAGE more HCG but there are plenty of exceptions - like the way most men are taller than most women but there are still gobs of men shorter than gobs of women!

I'm one of the exceptions! My first HcG level at 21DPO was 20,000 something and two days later it was 23,500 something! I'm having our third boy and only one!! They would have been happy with 2,000 and mine was 5 times that!! Oh, and my dates were spot on what I told them they were and confirmed at my dating scan a week later!

There are TONS of exceptions. Height is actually a pretty good example - lots and lots of exceptions and you could pick any two to compare and get a totally different result than any other two (so awfully hard to judge on the basis of one person's numbers)

Baby is healthy and we r team green. Still hoping for a boy but generally just in love. 21 weeks today

[TaytumJ]

Beautiful baby!! [emoji7]

I'm team green and we had less than ideal frequency for a boy as well. Basically we only DTD once like 12hrs before O and then once 12hrs after. So, we can be in a team-green-praying-for-blue-boat together! [emoji4][emoji170]
