the seasons and swaying

[1+2+3boys]

I have only read until the end of the 7th page for now but think I am starting to understand. With such a strong boy history I do not plan to sway lightly and want to get as much pink dust on my side as I can.

I am in New Zealand so the peak months to TTC a girl should be Sep, Oct and Nov? Is this right?
My identical twins were conceived in late September but only counts as one conceived in terms of swaying as they were one to begin with. Everything else in my life at that momment was pretty boy friendly though and age gap wise I think those would be good months to try and I will be ready to be pregnant by then.
My first boy was concieved in June so that is a peak boy month right? Is there one strongest month?

Yes, this is def. no magic bullet at all but if we can tap into it, it should help a little bit. I got two of my boys in girl peak months and then my girl in the boy peak so don't take it too seriously! If you can make it work out to TTC coming into the peak, that's great, but if not then no worries, you can still have a successful sway without it.

In NZ the best months would be Sept-Nov, and probably August as well.

When I was younger, age 22-25, I got pregnant late March every year. I'm one of those people who always gains weight in Autumn and loses it in late Spring, so usually I am heaviest in March. My very first pregnancy when I was 20 I conceived in late Oct. Then my most recent pregnancy, in 2012, I conceived in March again. So 5/6 pregnacies conceived in March.

I don't know what genders I conceived (except in 2012, BG twins) but now I'm very curious!

Edit: for my 1st pg I was living in NYC, for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th pg I was living in the bay area, North California, for 5th pg I was living in the Boston, MA area, and for the 6th I was in North Carolina. So all Northern Hemisphere.

Yes there are more babies conceived at some times of year than others! I also have 2 conceived in March.

Ahhhh. I do recall hearing that, a cabin fever effect of sorts. That makes it a little less mysterious sounding. Although I bet that with modern heating and A/C the seasonal birth numbers aren't as dramatically different as they were in the paat.

[atomic sagebrush]

It doesn't seem to be cabin fever though - it seems to be something possibly to do with day lenght that is triggering a natural increase in conception rates across the population.

Mar-May

Aww man I conceived this one in Sept lol... Also conceived my first and last boys in April suppose it's just a small part in the sway x

[atomic sagebrush]

yep it's just an overall variation but still fairly close to 50-50, the important thing is that it's consistent from year to year and what it tells us about gender swaying. Not in any way a magic bullet but if you can work it in, great.
