Spec cigs lowers count over time so... if someone smokes for a few weeks to a few months it may not affect them but for someone who has smoked for many years it will lower it.

The best thing to focus on is the diet and supps!

Based on his parents diets, my husband should have been a girl.

His mom was 18, drank and smoked pot, ate crappy foods (but not a lot of food), mostly did drugs though and was super skinny (she is still super skinny at 52 and prob still smokes pot, though she won't admit it)

His dad still smokes pot every day and has since he was like 17. I dunno how my husband got here between those two and their habits, lol.

On the other hand, my close friend I've told ya'll about her and her husband smoked pot and drank and had two girls, so I dunno how much any of this really sways.

I don't like popcorn and don't know the answer about the butter spray stuff :(

Air-popped popcorn is great for a girl sway...It's got fiber and not a lot of cals or anything else in it. I would caution you to leave out the butter and any added salt b/c those would sway boy.

i'd say smoking the special stuff is counter productive as altho is lowers sprem count it gives you the munchies so you eat loads of crap so higher sodium intake i've never known a pot head reach for lettuce and cucumber when they are wasted anyway

My DH smokes those "special cigarettes" and I have a boy and two girls. I am having him cut back for our boy sway because it supposedly lowers sperm count. But I do know quite a few boys born to potheads, so who knows.

I have a friend who LOVES popcorn. She eats it every night for dessert! She has 3 girls.

I do like to eat when I smoke but I can control what I eat, I can reach for popcorn and a cucumber! Sometimes I will purposefully do it before dinner so I don't eat extra. I haven't been doing it though, may start it up again...

My sister's dh smokes (the special stuff) often and drinks beer or wine daily. They have 1 of each. Most of my friends who smoke or their dh's smoke have girls. I personally think it does sway girl. I used to smoke them in HS but stopped before I had my kids. My ex (father of my oldest two boys) smoked all the time and we had 2 boys together. He remarried and him and his wife both smoke and they had a girl together.

I do remember reading on IG that popcorn was not allowed. I'm not sure why though.

oh and I used to smoke regular cigarettes for 14 years (just quit 1 1/2 years ago) and that certainly didn't sway for me

Special cigs are proven 100% to sway pink, but obviously many exceptions exist.

If you like popcorn, in moderation it's ok, but I would go VERY light on the butter spray. Butter spray is often listed as having no fat and calories, but that's because of a loophole in Federal law that allows them to round down the amount of fat/cals in it. If you spray it any longer than the 1/3 second (or whatevs) serving size listed on the label, you'll find that it has the same fat/calories of any vegetable oil - 14 g of fat per serving.

IG Diet does not allow popcorn but it IS allowed on LE Diet in moderation.

For men or women or both. LOL.

Both, and the more they smoke, the more girls they have. There are are quite a few studies on this dating back as far as 1912 up until quite recently. (and a couple claiming to debunk it that actually seem to prove it.)

I know amari, but I just wanted to post the study that I already had for anyone who was wondering since some people were wondering aobut reg cigs as well.

Smoking the green special stuff ALSO sways pink. Doc H also agrees that it does.

We found that the offspring sex ratio (male to female) was lower when either one or both of the parents smoked more than 20 cigarettes per day compared with couples in which neither of the parents smoked.
Wonder if this applies to me.
I don't smoke over 20 but I do smoke more then none.
I have between 1-5 each night depending on how hot or cold it is outside lol
I don't smoke during the day time.
