Hi, I’m 37 years old from the UK and have an 18 month old beautiful boy who’s the light of my life. As age is creeping up on me faster than lightning I need to get started on trying for my second baby.
Admittedly I had pretty bad gender disappointment when I paid private for a gender scan at 16 weeks. More so because my husband has 3 boys from his previous relationship so I knew I was only going to be able to have 1 or 2 babies at maximum and I always pictured myself with a girl.......I was glad I found out at 16 weeks as by the time I was full term I had cried my tears, fully accepted it and felt nothing but excitement.
The time has came to try again and I think I’ve read everything there is online about Girl sway. I’ve veen charting for 6 months with opk/ temps etc so I’m good to go with that side of things but the diet informant ion is mind blowing and lots of mixed information. I think LE is best for me and find it easy to skip breakfast .......
I thought I had it worked out but have just read this morning about coffee and wine helping girl sway. I’m confused as thought caffeine had to be eliminated. Or does this mean caffeine free coffee ?! Please can you confirm this for me xxx
And lastly my husbands PH is 9..... I’ve read both that PH doesn’t matter but I’m confused as to why husband must change diet too if this is the case xx
My PH is currently 6 but only done it once on CD 7
Sorry for all the questions, I’ve read multiple posts on here to try and find the answers and can’t seem to reach a conclusion ...
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and welcoming me to the forum xx
