CONGRATULATIONS!! That is so cool that you will have 7 kids and that you successfully swayed twice!

Were you vegetarian/vegan before conceiving your other kids? Does your husband eat meat?

I was a vegetarian with all the other kids. Vegan for these last 2 girls. My husband is a big meat eater. That mostly what he eats.... I swayed pink for #3, #4, #5, #6, and then #7. I did the French gender dud with my oldest daughter, IG diet with my 2 back to back failed sways, and the same thing for these 2 girls.

I'm not scolding OP here but I just want to put out a PSA for anyone thinking of taking LR for swaying: Women should NOT take LR. It is ONLY for the husband to take. It is not safe for women. Atomic has an essay about it here (http://genderdreaming.com/forum/ttc-a-girl-best-practices/7108-saw-palmetto-peppermint-tea-licorice-root-depth-how.html) (3rd post down).

The only reason I said anything was because Atomic has said it isn't safe for women TTC because of the risks to the woman's health and to the unborn. Studies have shown it isn't safe and no woman should be taking it unless it's something her doctor has okayed.

Yes, I have heard that some people are doing that and I find it extremely regrettable.

NO ONE take LR while TTC. It has been 100% proven (and in medicine, very few things are 100% proven) to cause developmental delays when ingested during pregnancy. Even women eating a pretty small amount of licorice candy increased their risks of having a child with a lower IQ and other developmental delays. https://www.livescience.com/57771-pregnant-women-should-avoid-licorice.html

We do not know the mechanism for this effect, we don't know how long the effects of the licorice may last, which could mean that even stopping it at ovulation, it could still be in your system during pregnancy. It's just really, really not a good idea, please help me spread the word because I cannot be in every site on the Internet telling people not to do these things.

Even if it got girls 1000% of the time, and only 10% of babies had issues, IT IS NOT WORTH IT. Please help me spread the word!
