Pregnant before sway, any chance of a girl???

[MummyBee]

Hello

I have two boys already. My hubby and I had been doing shettles for 3 months before I found this site! Cut off, missionary, shallow release and no female O.

Having read this site I had some sway tactics planned but have had a bfp this morning on cd23 of our fourth month ttc.

I had started skipping breakfast and taking cranberry this month but I'm pretty sure after the time I would have conceived. We dtd on cd 8, 9 and10 with ovulation likely cd 12 or 13. I have been taking calcium and magnesium and folic acid for a couple of months.

The moon at conception was first quarter. Chinese gender chart says boy.

I am overweight and my diet is by no means LE but I don't eat red meat and not much fat. I do eat too much sugar and drink diet Pepsi everyday.

Do I have any hope for a pink bean??

Sure you do!!! If you o'd on cd13 then really you only had one shot in your fertile window. And you're skipping breakfast and you don't eat red meat, so that's good. Fingers crossed you get your girl!

Thanks. How many days are in the fertile window? According to my ovia app, all three attempts are in the fertile window. And the skipping breakfast was only very recent so probably after we conceived!

The fertile window is about 4 days so I would say you had 2 attempts which can still get a girl. No red meat is good and the diet Pepsi would sway pink too. Chinese gender charts are just another OWT as far as I'm concerned.
I'm in a similar boat as you. I've started some swaying tactics but we had an oops last week on o day so I'm currently in the TWW. There is always a chance and you were doing some pink things. All you can do now is relax and wait :)

Congrats on your BFP! FX for pink!

Huge congrats! You always have a chance for a pinkie! :)

Congrats! You always have a chance at a girl!

Were you not eating red meat, eating low fat, and drinking diet soda with your boys or are those recent changes? Have you lost any weight recently?

No matter what you do always a chance at either :) best wishes for a pink bean :-)

Thank you all. No significant dietary changes. I had lost weight last year but had put some back on. I know there is always hope but I just don't believe I can make girls or that I could be blessed enough to have one. My hubby has a daughter from a previous relationship so it feels even more unfair that he gave a girl to someone else.

I was expecting this feeling but it is completely consuming me and I have only had my bfp for 2 days. I feel like fate is sealed now.

Everyone can make girls!!! We've had ladies get girls after 8 boys and boys after 8 girls (without swaying at all) and a lot of us have WAY more boys than you and got a girl too. :) You have just as much chance of pink as anyone.
