I checked the Chinese gender prediction and that's about it
Things that make me feel nervous about my sway:
2 attempts, was my fat intake too high, wasn't losing weight.. I'm really nervous about it now that the die is cast and thinking of everything I could have done better..
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
Being mostly vegetarian and replacing milk with almond milk
Drinking wine and tons of coffee.
An hour of cardio daily
Cutting way back on my protein intake
Feeling super laid back/not stressing myself out about my sway
How different my lifestyle was from previous pregnancy attempts.
Things worth mentioning:
My current pregnancy symptoms are very different from my previous pregnancy. Also, according to my 7 week ultrasound the ramzi method says girl (for whatever little that may be worth.) I also feel at peace with whatever ends up happening.
