It's to do with the TW approach mainly, that more of all nutrients sways boy I am still eating calcium. I think one of the main studies AS uses the 'You are what your mother eats' showed that women with higher calcium actually conceived more boys, I'll see if I can find a link for you

i don't know...I was eating lot's of joghurt and cheese and got girls...
But find this interesting in the study :
"We went on to test whether particular foods were associated with infant sex. Data of the 133 food items from our food frequency questionnaire were analysed, and we also performed additional analyses using broader food groups. Prior to pregnancy, breakfast cereal, but no other item, was strongly associated with infant sex (Wald Χ2=8.2, p=0.004). Women producing male infants consumed more breakfast cereal than those with female infants (figure 1). The odds ratio for a male infant was 1.87 (95% CI 1.31, 2.65) for women who consumed at least one bowl of breakfast cereal daily compared with those who ate less than or equal to one bowlful per week. No other foods were significantly associated with infant sex (given the multiplicity of testing, p≤0.01 was considered significant), and was also true for the broader food categories. During later pregnancy, breakfast cereal consumption remained considerably higher among mothers of males (Wald Χ2=4.0, p=0.04). There were no differences for any other foods. Our data did not permit us to examine the consumption of breakfast per se, but breakfast cereal is the main food eaten for breakfast in the UK and is only rarely consumed at other times of day. "
Now is this says they all eat cereal for breakfast for sure or that they eat breakfast for sure but they don't know if it was cereal or other food?

First - about the calcium, I feel that nutrients across the boards sway blue and lower nutrients sway pink because of the TW hypothesis. This was corroborated by the Oxford study which found higher intakes of calcium AND sodium/potassium amongst moms that went onto conceive boys.
Also, full fat dairy has been shown to boost fertility and everything that boosts fertility seems to sway blue.
I ate tons of yogurt and cheese with all four boys, drank milk by the gallon with my first two boys, and I was swaying with my 4th boy, so calcium cannot be any kind of magic bullet. If it sways, it's easily counteracted by other factors.
Re - breakfast, Fiona Matthews, the lady who did the Oxford study, believes it's eating breakfast that sways and not breakfast cereal itself. But since it ~may~ sway and it's boy-friendly anyway, I think it's good to include cereal in a boy sway.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Everywhere should have club soda, club soda is WAY more common than seltzer here. I have to drive everywhere to find seltzer. It might be in a different section of the store, with the things you mix alcoholic drinks here. Ours is beside the chips usually, they have a little section that has Schweppes brand club soda.
Publix, Walmart, and Winn Dixie all make a store brand of club soda in addition to the Schweppes kind so if you just ask at your local store they will help you find them. If worse comes to worse and you really can't find it anywhere, they also have it at liquor stores.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!
