Hello im just dropping in to ask a few random questions:

i have never really seen anything like this on the net.!

is it really without 'swaying' if that pos cause to some degree we sway in just how we live eat? that is it ever truly 50:50 for a boy/girl?

i have just lost a baby in 1st tri we tried straight away and i could be pregnant now who knows? however i am interested in shaping up my diet a bit since the mmc.

My current 'diet'
Im a bit ashamed to say im a sugar person and i dont really eat healthy at all
I eat id say fairly frequently thru the day 5x maybe tops 6? it would be bf,lunch,dinner+dessert and maybe 1 other so yeh 5-6x i would say :)
I have put on weight in the last few weeks due to loss and lots of comfort food
If i have caught straight away is it likely to be boy,girl based on above?

To add if i havent my diet going forward (4/9/19 onward)...
1800 calories max, because i would like to lose weight
a apple a day
wake up - small chunk dark chocolate, 2 hours later bf/lunch almost together, 2 hours later again dinner (yeh im weird and eat dinner early), 4hrs ish later pudding so basically 4x eating i suppose?

to understand, how often would i have to be eating a day to sway blue? how many calories a day to sway blue? or if i am counting calories to lose weight to sway blue i basically maintain/gain weight?

So you are trying for a boy, or a girl??

Yes, your lifestyle and diet can affect the gender of your baby. Gender ratio falls on a bell curve, so most people do fall into a 50-50 range but there is variation up to 70-75% according to our results. A couple studies have indicated it may even be as much as 80% but we haven't found that to be a possible goal in the real world.

I can't look at your lifestyle and predict your baby's gender but there is a lot of pink friendly stuff you're doing there. Some blue friendly stuff too - but low cal intake, losing weight, eating mostly sugar, and trying after a miscarriage do tend to sway pink.

So if you're swaying blue I'd rather have you eating 2000+ cals plus and having more healthy options than chocolate for breakfast, LOL. And if you're swaying blue you should maintain weight and not lose it. I'd recommend adding weights in, since they can help you sway and also burn off some cals of what you're eating so you don't gain more weight.

Hello wow thanks for your reply!!

so many cycles after m/carriage does the 'more likely to have a girl' rule apply?

well i feel a need to lose weight so swaying boy probably wouldnt work-
i will try a girl sway since i am probably closer to a girl sway anyway...

i also dont exercise, i only do a purposeful walk once a week.. err yeh im not super healthy!

thank you for your help-

Or you could just not try a sway at all, and see what happens if you don't have a preference!!

We honestly don't know how long fter a loss the effects last. IT may depend on how advanced the pregnancy was - further along may last longer, chemicals may not sway much at all and only the first egg. We just don't have the data to say for sure.

If you need to lose weight it's a good time to do so before you're going to conceive. :)
