Sorry if obvious questions / answers

Ginger already explained this but I do want to mention that many doctors will not test these things.
And I'm sure this is obvious but please, no one schedule an abortion based on the side you ovulated from, the side of implantation, and the HCG levels because we've seen them be wrong many many many times. (and sadly, I do have plenty of reason why I mention this every time the subject comes up.) Some people are obsessed with early gender detection methods (not saying anyone in this thread, just that it's happened so if anyone's lurking, I want them to know this) so they can schedule terminations and these are simply not reliable methods.

That's makes me so so sad i can't believe someone would terminate a pregnancy on gender even if they knew 100% it wasn't the gender they desired each little life is a blessing and so many women can't even have a baby but would love one 😢

There are people on this site who are in really bad places either in their own heads or in their culture where that seems like the best option to them. Most of us thankfully are not in that situation and probably can't understand that kind of desperation. It's probably best to just count our blessings that we can't understand where they're coming from and try to be supportive in whatever way we can within our own ethical frame, if at all possible.
I'd actually prefer never to bring it up but about 80% of the time this topic comes up I get messages from people asking me about these methods (which again - do not work reliably!) in order to schedule terminations which is why I mention it. It is entirely possible to end a pregnancy that is your desired gender because this stuff doesn't work.

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
