Things that make me feel great about my sway:
I felt that I wasn't doing the same things that I was doing with my other two sons. I always had breakfast straight away, always snacked, always drank tea no coffee, never drank diet drinks before. I stayed within limits and was consistent.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I didn't reduce salt and still had tomatoes. I drank red wine instead of white.
I only could manage 30mins exercise a day. I had researched it and as long as I was doing it on an empty stomach it would mean cardio would burn fat stores straight away. I felt that just walking everyday i wouldn't have broken a sweat. It was still advised to do 1hr if I could but I couldn't manage it.
I already have two boys and felt nervous that i'm just a boy mum.

I can't tell you how heartbroken I am.
It is still very raw.
All I can advise is to make sure 100% that you are ok with an opposite.
I wish I'd addressed these feelings properly before.
As you can see even with a good sway, it means nothing.

Sonnygirl I'm so sorry you didn't get your girl. I know it doesn't feel like it now but things do get easier with time. My sway was very similar to yours and I was shocked I didn't get my girl. My third boy is now 5 months old and I GD throughout my whole pregnancy it was awful. I remember reading other people's posts and being told that once he's here things get easier and not believing it....but I promise it does. I am besotted with my little baby now and couldn't live without him! I still have a yearning for a girl but the GD does fade. Big hugs and take care of yourself.xx
